You are not missing anything. There is no EI whilte in "M" with a dummy adapter in the V1. Sunny Sixteen rules. :-)

Need to factor in the price of a flash.

Great to see a Chinese company entering the ILC market. Competition is good for consumers.

I personally would not pay any more than 50% for used lenses and I have seen used 30-110 listed for around $150 which currently retails for $280.

The old Osaka International is excellent as it is located close to both Kyoto and Osaka. From the airport to Kyoto is a short monorail ride plus an hour on the Hankyu-Kyoto Line. For Osaka, take ...

That's up to you what sights you are most keen to see. For most first time tourists Kyoto, Miyajima, are a must and they are in the south. Weather is also nicer in the south. A population density ...

Thanks PDA4you, I just got the lens back from Nikon Canada. Zoom is now smooth both directions. The lens barrel unit was replaced under warranty.

Street View is a double edged sword. While it can be handy for planning trips it takes away the surprises out of travelling to a new place. I just came back from western Sichuan, a place not well...

I have the old Nikon 1, 10-30 mm non-PD zoom. I think it may be showing early signs of failure. When twisting the zoom from 30 mm back to 10 mm there is roughness at 24 mm, as if some internal ...
