    Can anyone recommend a good Micro 4/3 (or similar)?

    Thanks all! :D Maybe just a little bit ;) But it would also be nice to have a smaller, more portable camera for days out. TBH I don't fully trust my clumsy husband with my pride and joy :lol:

    IC / dictation recorder

    Not voice activated, but I recently got a Sony ICD-PX312 from Amazon (http://amzn.to/K4xKlm) and I have to say the sound quality is excellent. I recently recorded some lectures I was at from about 6 rows back from the front, with lots of background noise, and you could still hear the lectures...

    Buying my first DSLR

    I started with a Canon 350D which I picked up on eBay and the standard 18-55mm lens. It was a small outlay initially, but enabled me to build up my lens collection.

    2.7GHz vs 3.1GHz

    After replacing my creaking old laptop with a MacBook Pro a while back, I've decided to take the plunge and switch my old PC to a 27" iMac. What will be the difference in day-to-day processing of the 2.7GHz vs 3.1GHz? If I'm processing RAW images in LR3.5 will there be a noticable difference...
