Google Maps still needs a GPS signal to establish your location on the Google map and given that phone GPS chips are generally less effective than those on standalone GPS receivers - Google Maps on your phone is less likely to work than a standalone device with suitable base map. In my...
One of the reasons people like to copy images taken by others is (imo) because it helps prove to the less experienced photographer that landscape photography can be done to a high level with their rudimentary skills and experience and much less rudimentary equipment. If I turn up at location...

I've got one of the rucksacks, really nice quality and look a bit different.
(Edit, although it might not be quite big enough)
I did think of the 12-40 but it seems to be fairly pricey even second hand from what I can see. Also, I quite like the idea of primes as a way to simplify things a bit - doing what I can with what I've got rather then fiddling around with the zoom.
Ideally I would have gone wider, prob not fish-eye wide but wider than 28mm equiv - however I'm trying to keep it to a reasonable budget and the 28mm seemed to give the best width/cost ratio.
Well that's a bit of a kick in the nuts, I assumed that all the Panasonics had it so didn't even bother checking. Still, turns out it's not that essential so that's good news!
Is it not the case the Olympus lenses don't have any IS? That's why I've not been looking at them anyway.
I don't mind manual focus but can't be bothered with manual aperture, metering etc etc. I did fancy the Samyang 12mm but decided the same money spent on the 14mm&60mm with change left...
Right, I've got my Panasonic G3 and bought a Panasonic 25mm F1.7 to go with it. I've just ordered a Panasonic 14mm F2.5 to cover the wider angle, will probably get the Sigma 60mm as a short telephoto within a couple of weeks and my slightly longer term intention is to get the Panasonic 100-300...
Generally for more active use it's the lighter weight Velez or the Quito as they use a lighter, cooler fabric, for steadier use then any of the other waterproofs depending on which features you want.
If it's just a waterproof standing around in the cold jkt then to be honest they're all...
Or alternatively these short skimpy overpriced coats could actually be designed for something else entirely? Biking, climbing, running etc perhaps? The sort of activities where a longer coat is an actual physical encumbrance?
Prob worth thinking things through a bit more before your next emoji...
Are you sure it's technically a waterproof? All Paramo waterproofs use a "pump liner" system which is similar in feel/weight to a microfleece, if it doesn't have such a liner it isn't a waterproof as such. They make a really good windproof called the Fuera which looks like a fully fledged...
