    The future of Micro Four Thirds - has it stagnated?

    If the G6 has built-in Wi-Fi and GPS, continued improvements to the sensor and G2/G5 handling it will sell by the lorry load. I reintroduced myself to m43 recently with a GX1 after an 18 month absence - my last m43 camera being a G2. The system, on a price/performance/weight ratio, is surely...

    Adobe Lightroom 5 Beta

    LR4 eats my 4GB Ram (W7/x64). Adobe still has a reputation for lardy code in my house :thumbsdown: I'm hoping LR5 is a quantum leap in performance on the same hardware.

    I received my original purchase and sensor replaced X10 via CityLink. The bag to send the camera off for repair was RMSD. I can't remember who delivered my empty packaging for some reason :shrug:

    All great shots, souldeep. The close-up of the girl with the headscarf and the cat are really doing it for me :thumbs:

    Cheers! I'll revisit that, it's just a few hundred yards down the road from me. I was very hasty taking the shot, thought I was going to get clonked over the head and dragged in to a workshop to be broken up for spare parts :eek: It's uncropped and I reckon I could do better with focus. iso800...

    Here are a few from the Antiques Roadshow a couple of weeks ago in Port Sunlight. The weather was terrible and I didn't get around half as much as I wanted to. They've each had a little boost here and there and been cropped, somewhat. They were taken at the Medium, Fine setting. I can't remember...

    Haha, you've found me out. I'll ease off the subliminal admissions from here on in or at least I'll try. I'm enjoying the colours... here's a couple more from an hour or so ago. iso800 f4.0 iso200 f2.8 (slight crop)

    I should point out the middle one is in that well know supermarket and was acquired in a brisk, stealth mode manner. I have previous form; being thrown out of a high street store for taking snaps. I've included it as it may help others gauge colour reproduction with a familiar subject, if that...

    Here's a trio I took on the move earlier this evening, sooc (LF, Sharpen -1). Not too inspiring, I know, I'm a learner. Just thought I'd throw them in. It's been overcast here today and it's the first time I've posted images in any forum so if I've made a pig's ear of it please let me know...

    It's a fair point... I'm certain there are tens of thousands of very happy x10 users who will never venture near an internet forum, along with thousands of lurkers. The red labels make it go faster, I thought everyone knew that ;)

    That could be the key. If it's more than one job attach a note to the camera! Good luck :thumbs:

    Yes, Lindsay, it was agreed. I registered the faulty aperture first and at the end of the call, a few weeks ago, asked to go on the list for a sensor replacement. The advisor informed me the new sensors had arrived and both jobs could be completed at the same time. My job sheet that came with...

    Just received my X10 back after an 8 day (inclusive) turnaround. It is my camera, same serial number, same box etc. Fuji have not repaired my secondary issue of a faulty aperture. I can only get F2.2 at the widest setting. I have to turn the lens just past the 28mm notch to get F2.0. I called...

    I appreciate the positive vibes, ChrisR, but there's a hint of fake bacon in it for me. The X10 is not the first camera I wanted to take everywhere, I had an S90 a couple of cameras ago. The X10 is the first camera 'I have' taken everywhere with me. I bought an A4-ish size tote bag especially...
