Thanks for the summary. I just bought two Zhongyi Lens Turbo adapters from RJ in Shanghai.  They were FD and PK.  They also presently have MD and NF as well.  Maybe others.  I believe an M42 is "in...

I can endorse the 100/2.8 IS on the Speed Booster - great combination.

The RJ glassless adapter is less well known.  It does auto focus etc on seemingly all the Canon EF lenses and works otherwise like the Speed Booster but only has one operating system.  Of course it...

Try my solution NEX6 + Metabones Speed Booster + 50mm f1.2 Canon EF lens  = nice outfit. or NEX6 + Zhongyi PK Lens Turbo + Samyang 85mm f1.4 = cheaper nice outfit

Sorry I am not aware of the Mitakon.  I have the Metabones Speed Booster, the RJ electroninc glassless adapter and the FD and PK Lens Zhongyi Turbo adapters (dumb of course) now also sold by RJ....

I think Ken has already taken a drubbing over his review which he must have made from the release specifications alone and his imagination.  I don't think the on-line manuals would have been...

I only just got my hands on them so early days.  Weather has been overcast so there is not a lot of chance to test it's effectiveness in bright light conditions.  It is supposed to work because...

Funnily enough when the GRDIII came out I wondered what more Ricoh could do to refine it but the GRDIV proved that there was room to do so but no revolution.  The GR is a revolution but can be...

Yes I thought the Panasonic LC1 was too expensive at $2,800 (here) and some years ago so I did not buy.  But when I got wind of some selling for $1,400 it seemed "more like it" so I bought one and...

Yes I did think them quite funny.  I found out a long time ago that you cannot have an argument if you agree.

Thanks, maybe I can make my own custom GR manual from a downloaded file before I take delivery of my example.  This might be a first - an updated how-to without seeing the camera?

Andrew I agree with your agreement. I would hate to be a retailer carrying one or two niche cameras that never sold until they took a bath on them. I suggest that there will be fewer but larger...

Why am I burdened with being a professional accountant? Aleksander, you are perfectly correct.  When a camera-only company is making overall losses selling cameras then the ship will surely sink....

I have found it a better riposte than the slanging matches that erupt with Ratty from time to time with others.  Ratty and I are old mates and we joust a bit.  I value Ratty's incisive opinions...

It is not so much my preferred method - the one on the GRDIII seems to work the same on the GR and that is fine.  Maybe if I was indeed more of a snap focus freak then Aleksander's suggestion might...

Yeh, they said "this week" and it is only Thursday still. (Just)  Must be battling a headwind ;)

Sorry I am not really into snap focus use myself I was just trying to affer a way to make it easier for those that use it more. I did not test it but from the sound of things I think you are...

Happy is he with more than one GXR body and M mount module!  Dennis I suppose you have followed how to move your settings from one body to the other so that they remain synchronised?  If you are...

Unfortunately Bill it only means that there are no plans not that there will be no more, your GAS is not excused. However we cannot presume that there will be more GXR product either. The...

Thanks, You have said this more clearly than I did.
