    So what was your first slr or dslr?

    The first slr I used was my dad's Canon AE1, which I now have in a cupboard. He then bought me a Cosina CT1 super to stop me pinching his camera. This was in the 80's. I then traded it in for a Minolta Dynax 7000i. Then I had a number of years without a slr, before I got a Canon 300D. Then came...

    Lovely shot Glenn. Like the symmetry in it.

    Thanks all :) No noise reduction was done on that shot. Not sure how you quantify noise, but yes the noise is visible at full size, but as you can see it is more than acceptable for iso 3200 at normal viewing sizes (to me anyway). I don't think I would have got as good a shot as that with my...

    Finally got to use my GF3 + 14-42X lens in anger last week. Here's one of the shots I managed to get using ISO3200, hand held! Fireworks at Disneyland Hong Kong by sypix, on Flickr

    If you're looking for something simple, I am using a Tamrac 5689 (Pro Compact digital camera bag) for my GF3 + 14-42X. It just about a perfect fit, with the height of the case being a couple of cm's too tall. I was after something as slim as possible, but they also do a 'Digital 2' bag that is a...

    I have just taken delivery of my 14-42X this morning. Not had a serious play with it, but the zoom lever being on the lens (unlike on a p&s) seems a bit alien to me, and will take some getting used to. On the other hand, it is very diddy. Only just bigger than my 14mm pancake, which is the main...

    UK Digital had stock as of yesterday, and a bit cheaper than Clifton. I ordered last night, and it has been dispatched today, special delivery. May get it tomorrow, if the postie is being nice. If not I will ahve to go to the PO next week to pick it up, as there won't be anyone in to accept...

    They're £20 more and also not in stock. I am tempted to get a G3 though, as I want a big zoom, and think it will look wrong on the GF3. The biggest problem is finding the money for it!!

    Is the 14-42mm X available in the UK yet? I'm thinking of getting one for my GF3 (even though I have not used it yet!!) to go on holiday with, keeping the camera compact. All the retailers I've looked at don't seem to be carrying any stock. I think MAthers is the cheapest, pluse there £60...

    To get the price in £'s you need to at least fill in the country field in the address part of the form.

    As I said in another thread, they seemed to have broke the form when they updated it. However, just had another look, and I think it's been fixed. The drop down is there now, but the GX1 is not included.

    Panasonic GF2

    Looks like they have extended the cashback offer to 22nd Jan. http://www.lumixlifestyle.co.uk/cashback/lumix-g/ I think they have broken the form tho, as there's nowhere to put your photo/scan of the bar code, like there was before the new year. I can't see to be able to submit the form?!! I'm...
