Placed a big order with B&H recently.  Order took three days to ship and now it seems like it's on the UPS slow boat (6-day transit time). Granted, I chose free shipping and granted, I don't expect...

Please don't say that.  I have enough software, but C1 has been whispering to me for a while now.  You're not helping.

Hahaha.  This.  Best advice would be to get off these forums entirely.  We all suffer from GAS, and we all feed each others' bad habit.

Selling a complete Really Right Stuff OM-D grip, base plate, and L-bracket set.  Excellent condition. RRS sells this kit for $180 without shipping.  I'm selling it shipped for $130. These pieces...

The 12-35 is currently the only high quality standard zoom for m43.  I didn't mean to imply that the lenses are completely equivalent -- that would be impossible since m43 doesn't have a good...

It seems like ePhotozine's reviews are frequently at odds with the rest of the world.  I wonder why that is.

Nice shots, especially of your kid.  The lens gives just the right amount of subject isolation.

Current special running through June 29 (I believe). X-E1 + kit zoom: $1,199 Fuji 35mm (if purchased with body or kit): $399 Total: $1,598. Check B&H or Adorama or any of the big stores.

That makes good sense.  The autofocus on the E-M5 is hard to beat.

LOL, not even close to fair.  One of the primary weaknesses of m43 is the lack of a quality standard zoom that doesn't cost $1,100.  The Fuji 18-55 smokes any of the m43 kit zooms, and the Fuji...

For anyone who's curious, existing 3.X Expert users can upgrade to 4.0 for $39 through their client account.

As I said earlier, this is a great review, Ray.  A very useful data point for those of us who are considering these two birds.  Don't let the pedants get you down.

Very true.  The 60mm is available for $349 if purchased with a body right now.  Heck of a value.

If you sell, use Amazon.  They take less commission, don't make you hassle with PayPal (which also takes a cut), and protect sellers better than eBay. If you sell, insure the hell out of the...

I like it, but I wish you hadn't cut off the bottom of the tire.

You can get the 35mm and 60mm combined for $750 right now (if purchased with a body).  That is insane.  Just get both.

No, I live in a city with very bright skies.  I hope you'll keep trying your hand at this.  Astrophotography is much harder than I would have guessed before trying it.  I am terrible at it.

No offense, but I'm just seeing a pretty uniform-looking field of stars here.

Because it was purchased -- new -- from an authorized SanDisk retailer.  I guess they took it up with Amazon.  I was outside of Amazon's 30 day policy when it failed.

Bought one of these on a different occasion from Amazon.  Wound up being a defective Chinese knock-off that failed in the field.  SanDisk replaced under warranty (thanks!) but I am skeptical of...
