  • Commented on Ricoh GR Hands-on Preview preview

    Want one but can't afford it, Yet!

  • Boring video, the music is terrible and should have been left out, I am a jazz musician.

  • Its rather sad, I have an Olympus OM2n film camera that I bought new like God knows how long ago with a bunch of lenses, I use it now and again and it still works OK, my Nikon, Bronica and Fuji...
  • Created discussion Original GRD replacement?
    I have a GRD3, until very recently I still had my original GRD but it was dropped and it smashed the lens cover blades and scratched the lens, I liked the camera, now should I get a used one...
  • My GRD3 is the only digital camera I have owned of many that I use the monochrome mode most of the time, I would also buy a monochrome only GRD but I would keep the screen as for me it is better...
  • two of my most admired images are from my GRD3, both black and white and noisy, snap focus when set at 2.5 or any other distance is bloody fast, I think its faster than my M9, it works on setting...
  • Sometime later in the year I have to take pictures in some old Lake District churches for a friend who is doing an article for an historical society on them, first choice is my Sony 850 FF with my...

    I have been asked to take some pictures of the interior of some churches for an article in a local historical magazine that a friend of mine is doing, so I obviously thought about what camera to...
  • I often smile when I hear people complaining about auto focus speeds etc, I started photography in 1958 and I remember the impossible dream that would never happen, auto focus and auto exposure, we...

  • This looks like a fine camera to me, I have a Leica M9 with just the Zeiss Sonnar 50mm f1.5 lens, I am a prime lens man, this little beauty looks like a winner to me and is going to be tempting my...

  • It looks very interesting to me, I use both the a55 and the a850 all my lenses are Minolta legacy, I obviously understand both EVF and optical, I would have to get my hands on one first to give it...

  • I have just Googled Istagram and looked at images, interesting stuff but not my sort of a thing, it's like fast food, instant gratification with no effort or personnel creativity, some of the other...
