Maybe if you'd not sold me a duff camera...And never posting any images...
Seriously, do you really want to see selective colour photos of cake in my local patisserie?

My first experiments with triggers:My Hahnel Combi TF triggers arrived today. Just checked they worked OK. I bought an extra receiver and tried trigerring my Nissin Di466 and my i40 and they worked a treat. They only work with manual flash as the trigger doesn't do TTL but I am sure I will learn how to do it. I though that setting them up might be difficult but it was very easy. Just check all the little switches in transmitter and receiver were set the same ( I believe you can change them to any combination as long as they all match in case someone near you is on the same setting and you would end up setting there flash off ) and then put the transmitter onto the camera and the receivers on the flash. Switch the power on to the right setting on the Combis, and set the flashguns to Manual. Fire away.
You can also use them as a remote shutter trigger. To do this you put the receiver on the camera, plug in the supplied cord, black end to camera remote socket and grey end to receiver (not the other way round as stated in the instructions)! and away you go.
Now I need to learn how to use the flashguns creatively.
You may be joking now Alan, but I won't be holding my breath!!! Have you tried Fuji yet? I ask, because a few folk I know are swapping over, but although tempting, their lenses are on the hefty side!I see the GM5 is not due to hit the shops until mid November. Still got a few weeks with my rx100m3 then
Anyway, has anyone else made that same leap - G3 to GX-7? I'd be interested to get your impressions.
Cheers
Derek

I shall be watching to see what you do next!!
Who are you?? Where's Alan and what have you done with him!!! Just joking!Hi Marcia, it was a tongue in cheek comment really. I have had the RX100 for a few weeks now and, whilst it is a great camera, I've not really used it much (no surprise there). What it tells me is that there is absolutely no point in changing camera gear like my underpants anymore or collecting lots of lenses - as it sits in the cupboard unused most of the time
When I do get out and about the RX will do all I need and more.
Take care
Yes, but now you've signed up to Flikr you've broken the ice.Just testing flickr...
Meh, looks about the same to me.
Why have you killed the link to it?
Still, you had that account longer than some people have cameras...
Did it taste nice? What are you going to keep your camera in now?
