If you can afford this lens then you can easily add the FZ200 on to the bill. OR try the FZ200 and see.

I found Lightroom very unintuitive and the whole importing thing!! Arrggh! I use Bridge to view, grade and select and Adobe Camera Raw (Photoshop) to open and do basic PP for RAW - single or batch....

Usually I shoot in Raw as there is much more latitude with recovering highlights etc but especially with fixing the white balance (My 50D seems a bit erratic with this my 5Dc not). It is a bit much...

I tried out the OMD a few times but kept preferring my X100 which I have had 2 years now. Simple and intuitive to use (once you learn what is where). The Oly buttons are too fiddly and crammed,...

This reminds me of when I went to Europe in 2003 and took a small Olympus (film) compact with me. The compact died after about 2 weeks so I replaced it with a good quality Sony handycam. I now have...

I always forget my camera(s) have it! Very rarely use it but if the camera has live view then it can have video so what harm in having it? I don't think by having video you are necessarily...

So it is really a 200mm to 560mm f4-5.6 IS L lens.
Might as well buy a Panasonic FZ200 and get 25-600mm f2.8. Ok not the same and a tiny sensor but unless you are a serious photographer or quite...

Maybe it will surprise us?

But if you already have one for your RX... then you could also use it for this.

The accessories - evf, flash and mic look more professional than the camera.

Has it occurred to anyone that Sony is in the business of selling as much of anything to anyone that will buy it. It is called capitalism or actually consumerism. If you don't like it don't...

Why comment on the sensor performance or whether it has too many pixels until we see that actual performance. Yes they are marketing to general consumers. Any enthusiast photographer would not...

STM 18-135 and new STM 18-55 would suit this.

STM 18-135, STM 18-55 and 40mm STM would suit this.

I kind of agree but I don't think this is the solution to the mirrorless and m4/3 market. Canon is appearing unsure and is innovating slowly. First thing they need to do is to redesign their aging...

One of the few intelligent and polite responses to a genuine issue someone is having. I found the same with a 5Dc and a 70-200 f4 IS lens. I simply added a small amount of blur. As one poster said...

I meant FZ200. But it seems to be a much lower resolution item. This means it is not meant to used exclusively but for "emergencies".

Can you walk on water or in air or over people? Sometime a zoom is the only solution.

You pays your money and makes your choices.
