    The Amazing Sony A1/A7/A9/APS-C & Anything else welcome Mega Thread!

    Seen some excellent condition ones on eBay and Facebook marketplace for around £1500 but it'll cost a bit more than that from a shop

    The Fabulous Fuji X owners thread

    Jessops on Oxford Street were useless... Park are good but their trade in prices weren’t as competitive as Jessops once I went to the Kingston branch

    My Jessops X-T3 has been posted!! But they claim to have used a courier called “Post Direct UK Mainland” which I can’t make sense of. Ah well, we shall find out what tomorrow brings!

    The Fabulous Fuji X owners thread

    They had one in Jessops Kingston (with the 8-16mm) when I was there trading my body in on Sunday. It’s basically the same as the X-T2 and you probably won’t notice stuff like improved AF when testing in store...

    It was UK stock as it happens.. but I don’t think he checked that tbh! Didn’t have the receipt with me although the box does state EU stock

    Cheers for the tip, Jessops in Kingston gave me £900 for the D750 and I'll get the £200 from Fujifilm on top :) Can't wait for the X-T3 to arrive now!

    Tried this at Oxford Street and they wouldn't budge :(

    Aye, I've gone Fuji and back too but I look at the photos in the X-T3 reviews and I'm so impressed. It's always low light ability that gets me to switch back to FF though, haven't seen too much on the new sensor about proper low light. Well, it's always GAS :D But sometimes it can be justified!

    Wex are offering me £850 for my D750... with a £200 bonus from Fujifilm on top. Very tempted! But also aware this could just be GAS. I love my D750 too

    M43, and why people are wrong about it

    Don't really know how to explain this better so I will give up, but 'f stop' is a relative measure of aperture size, not an absolute measure of light.

    M43, and why people are wrong about it

    Nah you aren't right here mate There is 'more light' but it's spread over a larger area so each pixel on a sensor receives the same amount of light in m43 or FF at f2.8 (or 1.4 or 2) [edit: I should say each mm^2 receives the same light, obviously pixel counts can vary] But the FF pixels are...

    M43, and why people are wrong about it

    Unless you're feeling insecure about your equipment choices why would you even care about negative articles on the internet? I don't understand why it concerns you so much? You don't work for Panasonic or Olympus, it makes no difference what others think

    M43, and why people are wrong about it

    Exactly, nobody has had a pop at m43 on this topic at all and he's still managed to get massively upset. Think it really says more about the chip on his shoulder rather than any issues, real or perceived, with m43.

    M43, and why people are wrong about it

    I don't know why you are being so aggressive really? People have good reasons why they buy non-m43 gear and you seem to be hell bent on dismissing them

    M43, and why people are wrong about it

    I think m43 is a really good system, loads of options for bodies and lenses now. I have had a few over the years but the thing that keeps me going back to a larger camera is always the low light performance and relative noise (all ISOs but higher ones in particular). Ultimately you can't beat...
