I shoot the D600 and D7200 (both bought used for about 635usd each) and they are fantastic, as one would expect. I love my 105 2.5 Ai and thus the D7500 has little appeal. I also like shooting two ...

A used Panny GM1 with 12-32 would be a nice option. And that can can shoot any of the fast compact primes and the excellent 45-150 for a very small travel kit with 24-300 effective range. I use ...

I have the Mk 1 version and find it sharp at 300, even wide open. Even though I have the GX85 with IBIS, I would not shoot the Oly. How do you find the difference at 300mm wide open? And where does ...

The solution to colour issues is to use the Colour Checker Passport and DNG profiles with raw images. That gives you spot on colours that you can then tweak to your heart's content.

Well, I can say that my copy only becomes tack sharp and contrasty at f/8 at 300mm ... but then, most copies of the Nikon VR have the same issue. Consumer lenses are what they are. But I can shoot ...

Panasonic has delayed the 100-300 in Canada ... no idea when it is slated to arrive. Meanwhile, I am loving my D600 and D90 again and will likely spend that money on a D7200 to replace the D90. ...

I didn't want to start a new 100-300 II thread and this one appeared at a judicious moment. So a quick question: Does anyone have this lens and the German tripod collar that was designed for the ...

Looks good to me. I would be satisfied.

Fair enough, but CF comes pretty close for the purposes of a loose ball discussion. There are nuances that matter a lot in every system and even between cameras in the same system, so getting more ...

Nice ... I fondly remember the trip home where I took it along to test. Got some really nice shots.

I appreciate the kind thoughts.

Hi John, bit of a delay getting back to the forum. Sorry about that. I assume that most people who shoot JPEG are doing so to get those famous Fuji colours. In such a case, Panasonic might not be ...

Lol, I must have been half asleep. D2Hs and D70s. The former is a beast and the latter was small for its time, but not even in the ball park of an m4/3 body like the GX85. The two lenses are also ...

I've recently gone mad. I sold off all my m4/3 bodies except one, the GX85. This is a small(ish) camera with 5 axis IBIS and no AA filter. Superb IQ when matched with a nice lens. This is a serious ...

Thanks! That article remains my #1 week in and week out. Of course, I've not done much posting lately, but still ... these Fuji sensors have a life of their own and look like they will continue ...

Sort of ... Apple really does believe in a closed eco system and they fight tooth and nail to make it difficult to "go cheap". But ... they also give pretty decent value for money and MacOS is ...

Agreed. Back in 2008 or 9, I traveled on business to the UK and took an extra day to visit Stonehenge on a premium tour, which allowed us to wander around the stones just after sunrise. An amazing ...
