    The GAS confessional - all who suffer are welcome. :)

    After secretly thinking about a Panasonic S9 for a while I saw wex were doing a deal with a 20-60 same price as body only. I mentioned it to my wife a few times. Went to have a look at one to make sure it would fit in my bag which it did! I came away from the shop with the S9 and 20-60! Oh and...

    Thank you for your input. To make this clear, no will has been made, I wish he had and could, but very unlikely he will be able to. there is only myself and my brother and my mum and no one else. This is not taking anything away from anyone, I had them brought to me to check over and see what...

    Hi all, basically my dad isn't well, hasn't been for a long time, and he has lost the will with everything due to altzheimers. It's got to the point where we are having to get things straight, and he has collected a lot of camera gear over the years. I'm truly overwhelmed with it. I really want...

    Panasonic S9 Rolling Shutter? Suitable for railway photography?

    Good morning all, I'm considering greatly a Panasonic S9 with the 20-60. My question is as it is solely electronic shutter, I was wondering if it would be suitable photographing trains, is the read out speed good enough for trains passing at speed? Thank you in advance!

But that has not happened...

    Hello All. Been A while!

    Thank You! I totally understand that, when this happened I ended up in hospital and I was housebound when I got out. Finding inspiration for things was so hard. Took me a long while to even think. Even now I find it hard to concentrate on subjects. I very easily get tired. For something...
