trouble is I'm not a Black & White fan.
Does anyone know if I can use my Nikon Speedlite SB600 on my GF1? I don't want to blow the thing up.:bonk:
Down to 1 camera and 1 lens now......
.... GF1 & 20mm
I used my SB800 ( before I sold it) on mine, and now have a cheapy Jessops SB800 look-a-likey one that I use. Seems to work fine.

Thanks Allan. Did you have to do any settings on it, or just fit it onto the hot shoe?
Are you sticking with that Alan
No...but this is...........!!

I think we were separated at birth!!! You sound as indecisive as me
Top Tip. Always buy you're undies the same colour, same with socks. Then you don't need to make a decision! :nuts:
Graham. Quality shots there...as usual!
Managed a short trip to a local park "Langtons" also our local Registry Office, a slow short walk with my GF1 +20mm
Very wise sir!! I have now run out of money so I have to use what I have so all I need to do is get out there and start clicking!Honestly it does my head in, I think I may stick with the kit I have for a while and just concentrate on taking photos when I feel like it - something a lot of TP'ers should take heed of - instead of chasing the next bit of kit every 2 minutes

Graham, I love the 2nd one but what the hell is it?
Either a gnarly old finger or someone with a sore wiener who should really goto the clinic
Nah, that'll never catch on.
Heh - it's a toadstool.

Am still researching DSLRs but not decided between D5000, D90, D7000, D300s, D700, D3s, 550D, 60D, 7D, 5D2
Oh how true!the cameras you're getting rid of are perfectly well suited for anything
Oh how true!
I feel the same way.
Having owned nine cameras in the last two years I'm sick to death of it all. I convince myself I want/need a particular camera and the minute I get it I start to doubt.
I've owned three GF1 bodies, a Canon G10, a Nikon D300, a Canon 7D, a Canon 5Dmkii, a Nikon D700, and now a little Olympus E-P1. Over the course of this buying spree I estimate I've lost around £2500 on re-sales, total madness.
I am very happy with the Olympus, the quality of the images are excellent especially when combined with the Panasonic 20mm. It ticks all the boxes for me and has a nice balance between features.
I'd initially wanted the E-P2 but figured it was my brain convincing me to buy something I didn't need again. This time around I've been trying to stick to a much smaller budget and get back to basics, a camera that produces good quality pictures, is highly portable (ie fits in my pocket) and doesn't break the bank.
I also want the 45mm Panasonic but I'm holding off to see how I do without it. If I find i need it down the line then I'll pick it up, if I don't I'll save the cash
:bonk:
I think one of the problems may be, and I mean this in the nicest possible way, that you guys spend too much doing research on things. It makes you unhappy with what you have because you think there's something better, when in actual fact, the cameras you're getting rid of are perfectly well suited for anything. I've done the same thing in the past, but have come full circle. I didn't quite go to the extremes that I've seen others do, and have never bought the same model camera more than once which is a bit crazy, but I do now have an appreciation for what is good, and what is mediocre.
In all honesty, you guys who had 7D's and D700's probably should never had got rid of them, as you're now considering your next move. I think the crux is that you don't know that you should have kept until you've tried other things - how else will know what works for you? However, you probably have to call it a day at some point.
A click on the space bar between the "S" and the "T".....could have been naughty.
Anyone mind if I join in with an ep1? This seems to be about the only m4/3 thread around here.
I've been following these EVIL cameras with interest for a while now, and this week I got the chance to buy a mint refurbished ep1 and kit lens for a shade over £200 (a bargain considering I'd been looking at g11s and lx5s for around £100 more). As a press photography student its great that I can have a camera with dslr quality with me at all times should a story unfold while I'm out and about.
I think all this talk of selling an unselling GF1's and the like is very unnerving
I think we should all take a leaf out of Grums book and just get on and take great pics
I've just put some back up for you.
