Problem with flickr was that it was slowly becoming irrelevant what with 500px, Instagram etc. It used to be the first place anyone goes to post or look at photos...it slowly lost that. This 1tb...

Thank you for the indepth answer. Much appreciated. I guess, if this is the case, then we probably don't have to worry 'too' much about it then. I certainly haven't really noticed it on my GF1 but...

Specially since it seems tons of kids (not sure if it's a majority) that age seems to be carrying a cell phone anyhow (which boggles the mind considering the most expensive thing I was carrying at...

Ahh, alright. In that case, is it more of a problem then normal with the OMD? Oly? M43?

Sorry, I haven't read through this whole thread...but I know about the shutter shock when it comes to the Panny PZ 14-42mm X lens on most m43 cameras (except for those with an electronic shutter),...

It could simply be that negotiations are going slower than with other brands. But regardless of that, this is business. DPR is NOT going to discuss what problems (if any) they are facing with...

Now, all that said, your link to the GF6 is wrong as it links to the GF5 with the pancake X 14-42mm (i.e. the one with the problems). Considering the Montreal store you have linked, can I presume...

You are mixing up the kit lens for the GX1. Check the link, the kit lens is the X 14-42mm PZ lens. I.e. the pancake zoom lens. Basically the smallest zoom lens around, as it's a pancake lens. The...

You asked how big those brands market share is...whether overall (as you stated) or in the gear shop so I mentioned about Sony. As for the gear shop, I would think it's about the same. Sony is much...

Um...Sony's market share in the camera world is much much larger than Pentax. They are legitimately number 3 after Canon and Nikon. Yes they are a fair bit behind Canon and Nikon but they are way...

At that focal length I would think the old focal length, shutter speed ratio would apply. I.e. focal length of 400 would need a 'minimum' of 1/400s. At the very least. That's assuming you are hand...

There you go, even more testament that they are both equally comparable. :)

Failed strategy? Probably not, at least from a general consumers point of view. GF6 is for the P&S compact up-graders or basically entry level people. Sensor isn't really a concern for them simply...

Which is quite a bit larger than Pentax and seemingly better idea of how to make 'desirable' cameras (GR series, etc.).  Still a quirky combination but I doubt it's going anywhere soon.

It really depends on how much you can afford to lose. Coming out to be $240 + $40 shipping for me = way too much for something that could be a paper weight. If it was, as mentioned by someone else,...

Well, at least it's not bigger then...though it's really too bad...I have always admired the aesthetic looks of the E-Px series. I so wanted to love the E-P1 when it came out because it was a...

I really don't think the size of the EVF has anything to do with the 5-axis IBIS...because that would make the assumption that the 5-axis IBIS is IN the EVF or at least have a need for the EVF...

It's beastly! I'm sure I would enjoy the view the EVF would give but holy crap I think it's gigantic and a huge eye sore! The tiny EVF for my GF1 was already rather ungainly looking but the one for...

Don't own an OMD so can't really comment on that. As for Dfine, it's made by Nik Software which was just recently bought out by Google for Nik Software's Snapseed app for mobiles. I have no idea...

Ahh, totally forgot about hacking the camera. Yes, that would definitely be a solution :)
