I never knew I wanted the 24-105mm but after reading through some of the latest posts I do now
Yes it does, although I wasn’t seriously considering it The weight and cost have always been the things that’ve made me swerve this lens.It's a big ol' lump to lug around, and I'm not a fan of the way it renders. Does that help?
Joking aside, it is incredibly useful and super-fast focussing, but there's something I like less about the images it produces than those I get with primes or some older zooms. A useful tool.

More on the ZV1...

It seems expensive to me but what do I know. The 24-70mm f1.8 lens looks very attractive if that's what it really is but the lack of a vf would rule it out for me. If it has one of those pop up ones I could be interested. I haven't been able to see if it has one or not yet, maybe it hasn't got one.
It was the 1" sensor and lens spec that caught my eye but I'm not interested in any camera without a vf. One stuck on the top could suite some people but not me. So I'm out.
That camera has a f1.8-2.8 lens and if that's what then ZV1 has that's another disappointment as the spec I read said f1.8. Plus I'm not a huge fan of the pop up vf.
Anyway, it was just a thought. I have the TZ100 with 25-250mm lens but that lens is slow and soft so I've always fancied a faster sharper lens even if with less zoom but I don't fancy one enough to pay that ZV1 price and put up with either no vf or a pop up one.
It was really that f1.8 that caught my attention, I am put off by the pop up vf though. I'll stick with my TZ100. I hardly ever use it but it's there when I want it.
I'm sure someone will have your LX100 but nice as they are sadly again it's not a camera I'm interested in.
Sorry, but doesn't do anything for me. But if you'd been on the other side of him with that rising sun on your back...
I like it but you've got some bad banding and grid patterningUnfortunately that wasn’t possible it took some ninja like skills to avoid the game keepers as it was.
Anyone pick anything up during the bank holiday offers?
There was a hard case I wanted that I found on offer at Park cameras. It was already reduced and then there was a further 15% of with a voucher code but they had no stock.
After doing a bit of digging around it seemed way too cheap WEX were exactly double the price and even my guy there couldn't get them to reduce it as the price they buy them in at was way above the price that Park were offering.
Park said it was available to order on their website with the supplier but it wouldn't let me use the voucher code so I ended up having to do it over the phone.
Have no idea if I will ever get it or not, have a strong feeling it has been priced wrong and they will eventually cancel the order, but if your not in you can't win.
At the moment there's nothing photography related I want.
Was that the vanguard? It did seem silly cheap.
And then I read this...

I'll follow this with interest and then make my mind up.

Seems to be a few people have jumped on the greenhouse wagon. My next door neighbour got a new one maybe last month and now has about 20 cannabis plants growing in it.
She told my missus she was growing tomatoes, my missus is a bit naive and believed her.

Maybe it's the lock down.
Mrs WW was getting interested in plants before this though and every inch of window ledge space is in use now. I started looking at cold frames but later wanted to get her a greenhouse but she's adamant she doesn't want one and just wants one of those vertical 4 tier phone box type things.
I like lights but not strings. I have 4 lamps and three bulbs all of which are solar powered and flash when the light drops. I also have one that's just a solid lamp that comes on when it gets dark. All were bout from cheap shops and most needed some sort of modding to make them last more than a day outside in the rain
They're not to everyone taste, they're just a bit of fun.

The idea was supposed to be to buy some modern manual lenses and then sell the film era ones but it didn't quite work out as I kept everything.
