Thanks, I'll have a look at that.

HI, is there a small but reasonably powerful speedlight available which would be suitable for the M10 mk II?

I went cheap and bought the smaller Xperia 5 II, the eye auto focus is fairly impressive. I would add I've never had eye AF on a camera so may be fairly easily impressed.

I've gone with the 24-120 F4. Makes sense as a walkabout jack of all trades lens. I'll be fleshing out my prime selection too, I'm left with only the 50mm 1.8 now I'm using FX.

Thanks all. Not sure I need the 2.8 for general purpose walkabout lens, coming from 2.8 on DX I'm sure the DOF will be roughly the same with FX at F4. Still deliberating but swaying towards that 24-120. Paul, your copy in the same condition as the 750?

Having taken delivery of a D750 my D7200 and 17-55 2.8 dx lens are off to MPB tomorrow. I'm looking for advice on what to replace what has been my mainstay walkabout zoom with. Obvious one would be a 24-70 2.8 to pair up with the 70-200 2.8 VR I have already but am I missing a trick? Budget...

This ^. On the other hand if it's a straight razor then by all means got to town with the multiple grit hones, pastes and whatnot.

Godox TT685N is an inexpensive option. I paid about £100 I'm sure.

Arrived today so only had the chance to mess about a wee bit and set it up more to how I think I'll want to use it. First time seeing through an EVF. Better than I thought it would be but it really is like looking at a live video feed on a wee TV. I'm sure it'll be perfect for travel, small...

Thanks to everyone who chipped in with advice. I've taken a punt on the mkII and the EZ lens. The brief was a small camera for travel, mainly family trips, so this should fit the bill. Just a shade over £300 like new. I suspect there will be a 17 or 25 1.8 getting picked up soon too...

Much food for thought here. I was pretty much set on buying the mkII from MPB at ~£200 for the body and another £100 for the pancake lens, both excellent condition, six months warranty. Then noticed that the mkIII can be had from HDEW for £369 with three years warranty or E Infinity for £349...

I am looking to buy a small compact ILC for travel and I'm pretty much set on the Olympus mentioned in the title. What is the consensus on the mk II v the mk III? As I'm not that interested in 4K video I'm thinking the mk ii might just do it. I have read that the menus in the mk II are hideous...

I use a Lowepro Toploader 55 AW II when travelling light. Camera and a 70-200 attached or use the velcro separator and take the camera with a smaller lens with another underneath the velcroed area. If that makes sense? (Modified for spelling)

The Nikon DX 35mm 1.8 is as cheap as chips and is a fine lens at that. When I had the D3100 this was the lens I popped in my pocket to compliment the 18-55 lens which came with the camera. The 35mm came out when I needed something more able to cope with dimming light, provide a shallower depth...

I bought a lens from Park last year described as excellent. It was in perfect nick. I'd def use them again.
