I recently added the S10, P10, and A16 to my kit all at once. I like the S10 because the image quality at base ISO is good and the 24mm on the wide end is useful for me. It's my "go to" lens for...

Hey guys, Sorry I know there are more interesting things to discuss, like the GR announcement and further speculation as to the fate of the GXR line. But I have a questions about the way the...

Tom, thank you.  OK now I understand the concept.  I did some digging around and it appears that the GXR stores *all* settings to both body and lens unit.  So I changed my setting to read from the...

I'm curious if anyone knows the answers to these questions.  I recently acquired the A16 zoom and the S10 zoom modules.Is there a way to make the GXR retain the last used zoom setting?  I have the...

Thanks, Michael.I feel that I can use any ISO with the A12 or A16 units, including 3200, with impunity.  Because, well first of all, these are just snapshots, but also 3200 works just fine with the...

Hi Harold,Thanks for your note.  Just got home last night and the A16 unit performed well on my trip.  It definitely has a much deeper depth of field compared to the A12-50mm that I'm used to.  But...

Hi, sorry if this has been asked and answered.  I tried searching on the forum, as well as google searching, but couldn't come up with anyone talking about this.On the S10 module, I see a button...

Thanks, Tom.  I appreciate your summary of the history of the system.  I knew about the zoom from the roadmap a couple years ago, but I thought it would be a 24-70 A12 constant aperture f2.8 model....

Godfrey, does your A16 suffer from the de-centering issues I've about reading about on the web?-John

Thanks for your thoughts, Tom.  I didn't consider the M module because.... Well, I guess I just like the convenience of autofocus and I don't want to buy into yet another [vast] lens system.  God...

Are you able to zoom it somewhat steplessly?  Or does the zoom only go to preset focal lengths, like the Leica tri-elmar for instance?I don't do a lot of street shooting, so perhaps as a...

Thanks, do you also have the 24-85 lens unit?For sure the 28mm is very compact, but the versatility of the zoom is very tempting.  I used to have a GRDIII and sold it to upgrade to the GXR.  I...

I've been enjoying my A12 50mm for a while now but have always wanted a wider focal length.  I've got an upcoming trip, and want a more versatile lightweight kit than just the 50mm.Been pondering...

I've had a lot of people ask, so I put together a list of recommended lenses for the D600.  Check it out here:http://thejohnha.blogspot.com/2012/11/definitive-list-of-recommended_12.html

I like lightweight lenses coupled with a decent tripod and moderate apertures.  So I use this three lens set with my D800E a lot when traveling:24/2.8D50/1.8D, and then a lightweight tele zoom,...

I've been testing the QP Card 203 and found some interesting differences between using it to make profiles for Lightroom and Capture One.Thought some of you would be...

I haven't had a D3 in a long while, but I find the D800E amazing at pushing shadow and midtone detail. Check out the following...
