sure. I think as someone above has said, we will have to use a few progs to do what one could have done. So, Nik, LR, Ap, Gimp...all will do something. I like the Nik plugins but I prefer just Lr....

Will b v interested to see what Google do with Nik / Picassa / Pro

'We don't have plans to make Lightroom a subscription-only option' is good news.

I use indesign a lot so will stick with CS6 for a few years then look at alternatives.

I like Adobe software but...

DPR a question if you don't mind. The GRD4, I think unlike the GRD3 did not allow you to preview the 'effects' on the LCD before shooting, when shooting JPEG + RAW. If Jpeg, obviously the screen...

Plastek the Ricoh UI is second to none!

28mm is more popular in Japan and to my mind a better FL for street work

Well this is me sorted then, what a camera this looks. The images so far seem to retain the Ricoh 'look' too, a quality of film about them. UK price of £599 is very reasonable I think.

X100s is...

This camera is interesting. Usually I'd look for f2, or 1.8 - the Ricoh GRD4 was perfect but the RX100 beats it on IQ. This Nikon seems to be the 'new' Ricoh. Strange too that Moriyama is using...

I returned mine. Slow AF and IMHO a slow EVF. The LCD is worse that the XP too which seems odd, because the XP has the better OV / EVF combination, so less need for a screen perhaps.Anyway, I'm...

there is no test like taking, printing, viewing, pixel peeping a photograph with your own eyes, or those of someone who has them if you don't. DXO is interesting, that's all.

I think is pretty normal. I am always amazed at how underexposed Ricoh images are. Canon are punchy SOC but not true I don't think. These do look a little dull but I guess it's the lighting. Have...

where?

this is really stupid, but it happened to me with the x100. I had set by accident the exp comp dial. It took me more time than I want to admit to realise what I'd done.

maybe instead of looking at numbers look at some pictures?

Looks like you're shooting through a car window which may have some kind of filter on it?

all just assumptions of course.

I didn't see an exact amount, I have just read it discussed, here, fuji forum, flickr etc. The though is that it will be more than the other prime lenses but probably priced lower than the 100s. So...

It's stated as $1200 US which is what the X100 was at launch, $1100 and £1k here, so it's an assumption.

remember the XF 35mm 1.4 is actually 50mmThe 23mm which will be out soon will cost about the same as the x100sthe 18mm / 27mm isn't as good as the restthe 18-55 is a fair size.I have the xe1 kit...
