You want lenses that are 37mm and 46mm filter threads.  A great kit is the following: 12-32 f3.5 $0/new Excellent general purpose lens, its only fault is physical focusing mechanism. 35-100 f4 ...

Not at all. I still have and use the expensive lenses. But now I can shoot my kit leases as well. Price of an education.

This is my experience also.  I have tried a lot of lenses but generally use the 15mm f1.7 just because it handles so nicely.  Really that's the primary reason.  If I could get the 12-32 to handle ...

I would have received an accurate but boring picture.  It may just be a phase, but I am enjoying spot metering.

Some good responses here.  I was lucky... it only took a few primes to show me that I needed to work on my technique.  I didn't think I needed a bigger sensor or a full frame. The one variable that ...

Would love for ML to put their skills to the G1X M3. (maybe enable mic on that remote port).

I do prefer slightly under exposed.  I can always brighten, pull shadows in pp.  If these were in RAW I could pull some detail from the dark tunnel in the first photo.   Also this is a general ...

That is the point of this thread, you don’t need expensive lenses to make good picture.  But its really hard to not spend the money when your goal is to take the best pictures.  And the primes ARE ...

I am, and its been a long time in coming.

I still prefer to shoot with my primes.  But I dont avoid my kit lenses when they hit a focal length I need.

This is kind of what I was leading up to...  the latest kit lens are very sharp.  And my 35-100 f4 lens for m43 is really nice.  I wish the 12-32 was built the same way or at least had a manual ...

I posted a list of things that have helped me get better at this thread: https://www.dpreview.com/forums/thread/4330001 This seems counter intuitive, but I have found great joy in shooting with my ...

I haven't done bracketed sets other than to test out the functionality with the new camera.  But part of the reason I made this post was to get some new ideas.  This will be one I will try in the ...

I always have 3 batteries so this isn’t an issue for me.  If all I have is the camera then I charge my batteries at night.  I have never needed more than 3 batteries.  If I have a portable battery ...

I explained why I said whitest vs brightest.  This strictly beginner speak not absolute professional speak.  If someone had told me to expose for the white in the picture I would have gotton to ...

Primarily Jpg.  I just don’t want to spend a lot of time in PP if I can avoid it.

Here is an example of how the I use this technique and the results.  I enjoy the top picture so much more than I do the bottom picture.  These are out of the camera shots and no pp... This is the ...

Excellent point... the only reason I went with the GX85 is because of in camera charging... That was really the ONLY reason... all of the other shortcomings I could deal with.

What specifically do you like about the GX9 over the GX8 and Fuji X100T?  These are the two cameras that I am looking at currently (well the x100f and the GX8).  What does the GX9 do so much ...
