Lightroom on my PC is fine with Canon RAW files but my Fuji RAW slow it down really badly, I can hit a button to make a change on a picture and it can be over 10 seconds before it reacts.

I keep mine in my camera bag

I bought the Fittest one for £13 and I've found it quite good as I have biggish hands and struggled to hold the camera one handed with a decent size lens on, the thumb grip gives much better grip and its never gotten in way for me.

Dam ive just paid to upgrade as well :-(

I've not used the Sigma but I absolutely love my Canon 70-200, I would never part with it.

I've never used an external flash even though I carry one ........... lol. Tripod is a must for me though. As said, it really depends on what your going to take pics of :-)

I had the NWZ-A865, can't fault it.

I have a Sony touchscreen with side buttons for controlling in pocket, drag drop file system and easy create playlists large memory and excellent quality.

Is it lens or sensor spots?

I process the RAW files into Tiff with ONLY adjusting sharpness and clarity in Lightroom. I then process them in Photomatix and save as Tiff. Then I do a full pp in Lightroom adjusting CLARITY as required to remove "softness" and finally saving in Jpeg, you really need to work on your own...

I dropped my 7D when it was 1 month old and got this fault, Canon changed several parts under warranty but it was never rectified, I just learnt to live with it.

You will need to try high ISO and use a low f aperture setting if hand holding but not easy, best to try and find something you can support camera on and keep ISO down and use a mid to higher f setting. Use the camera timer.

I took a Sony DSC-WX200 to Europe as a pocket camera and its no frills literally point and shoot but takes a great pick if your after hassle free.

XF1, cracking picture quality :)

I was told by our Interlink guy that they were finishing a few weeks ago so surprised they have lasted this long.
