Yes of course. I am thinking about the reflectance being switched on and off.

Getting rid of the transluscent mirror might not involve getting rid of the mirror. If a reflective thin film could be switched on and off electroncally this would be a real DSLR killer and enable...

It has not removed the strong reflections but there is definitely more detail getting through in most of the view of the garden. I do not see why it should not be done because it is not easy as...

I do not think it is focus but intelligent processing managing to minimise the foreground mush. You can definitely see a difference in photos taken through my filthy, cob web ridden shed window....

Yes but what companies do is reorganise the operating structure of so for example divisions A and B are being discontinued and there will be divisions C and D instead. Then people are assessed for...

I keep mine in a Lowepro Rezo 50 bag I had which has a front pocket for batteries etc.. It could squeeze into something smaller such as the Rezo 40 I expect as there is space around the camera in...

That is interesting. I knew Li-Ion did not have memory effect but the consensus seemed to be that they needed a few initial cycles to get up to speed. Probably urban myth though many people seem to...

To be fair you do not have to leave it on and it is very easy to switch it off. It will be useful just to log one picture at any particular scene. I have many Swiss photos where I do not know where...

Only kidding. Of course we all know it is GPS. Plus the Wifi of course and the Compass and not to forget the NFC which will probably be draining current trying to pay (as will any NFC credit card...

Very nice. Not a lot in it with quality. You say at low ISO but the K-5 with the kit lens will have more need of high ISO than the MX-1. I wonder if these new breed of fast compacts will squeeze...

I was thinking of Panasonic who seem very vulnerable at the moment and what they want to do and what transpires may be very different. The camera market must be fully saturated at the moment with a...

By the time the modern corporations and their efficiency experts/bean counters have rationalised everything completely it is probable that nobody will be doing anything at all. If you do nothing...

One thing possibly worth mentioning is that for the EVF/LCD to represent the actual exposure Live View Setting Effect has to be set to ON in the menu. If it is OFF the view will be optimised for...

Not if you have non stabilised long zooms and the one left has no in body stabilisation. Best to get Panasonic lenses which are probably more future proof.

There is a growing likelihood that at best only of these will be left at the end of the year.

Does anyone look at dates on these posts. This was a year ago and they have changed things a lot. At this time there were 2 lens updates depending on the lens. When this was posted there was no...

True, it is the cheaper Tamron offering. Sorry to cause confusion. Presumably the SP will be better.

Here is a Tamron 70-300 Di LD picture hand held. Terrific value lens, it cost me £110 with a 5 year warranty. Focus peaking is great for situations like this where AF would be useless and I tend to...

I was right.
