Gediminas 8

Excellent and funny because it is so true...

Where is that thumbs-down button when you really need to mark an unconstructive/flaming/trolling post? If you read the original post, you will note that the OP's current system cost him in excess...

Looks very much like the (computer-rendered) scene of the Assassin's Creed video game.

The photog, of course.

Same here. Even if I don't know if I will like the unusual focal length of the pancake (but I have a suspicion I just might) I am really waiting for a truly compact lens for my X-E1.

Superb idea and execution, with a suitable title!

I am still quite unfamiliar both with the Nikon lens system and the adapter business, what with all the variations, combinations and (in)compatibilities.Therefore I would appreciate advice how I...

Excellent point.

Mssimo,

"42.5mm f1.2 -equiv 85mm f1.2!
150mm f2.8 -equiv 300mm f1.2!"

By what miracle does f/2.8 on m43 turn into f/1.2 on FF, or even stay the same f/1.2 as you write?

They must be putting some...

It's probably your expectations.My 18-55 focuses OK. Not lightning-fast (such as my Canon DSLRs) but fast enough. And most of the 200 or so images taken already were taken indoors, with poor...

Yes, the doorway one is the best. Thanks.

Also using the same set.Set it at AutoISO6400, shutter priority, shutter speed 125, aperture Automatic. That should do it.

If you mean that the camera should be able to automatically set any ISO speed as may be needed, it appears that there is no such option. AutoIso6400 gives the widest range though.

Indeed, this solved it. Thanks again.

Thanks, will look into it now that I'm home. Multiple exposure was indeed the culprit once, when I was trying to switch to video mode (not possible with multiple exposure on).

Got it on Sunday, not much time - and light - to play with the kit properly yet, sifting through the pdf manual without success.What is preventing me from setting AutoISO (in fact, ISO) above 1600?...

Is that the source of your, err, cacophonic visions?
:)

Now this is getting seriously off-topic...Thanks for acknowledging the complex history of my country. I certainly agree there are similarities with the case of Palestine.However, my point was not...

Well, I did not see anyone telling you in a patronising tone that when you become an experienced photographer you will realise you don't need RAW:)

Anyway, having the option of RAW is always...

zinedi,

Why do you feel the need to preach what other people should be using when they are perfectly happy with what they have? Will you not sleep at night if someone enjoys their jpeg's and does...
