If I was looking for a point and shoot I wouldn't get a tripod [emoji3] how about a used Sony RX100 mark1? I've just swapped from one to a Canon G7X for the wifi, tilting screen and fast lens, but the Sony never let me down. It's a great camera and for me, having had all kinds of other...

I love fuji cameras but don't write off Olympus and micro 4/3 in general. I have settled on the E-M10 and I love it. The Olympus prime lenses are fantastic. My issue with Fuji (my only issue) is the autofocus speed compared to the Olympus OM-D models. I enjoy my photography a lot more now I...

I've moved from various DSLR's with my latest ( but not best/favorite) being a Nikon D7000 to Olympus E-M10. I'd made the move previously from Canon to E-M5 and and I LOVED it! The only reason I sold was financially because I was starting a PGCE course and needed to cash in on the system. I...

I think the idea was to show how much (or little) noise there is at ISO6400. The available light doesnt really matter when showing this as the level of noise at 6400 will be the same in decent light compared with worse light. The shutter speed wil vary (or aperture) so it will be different in...

Well, not exactly moot. Canon or Nikon equivalent, an f/2.8 full frame zoom lens is well over the specified budget.

But also, there is a £200 budget for the zoom lens.

I'm no expert on Nikon glass, I've mainly had Canon but which zoom would easily beat the 17-55mm 2.8? I had the Canon version and its been by far my favourite zoom lens. That's comparing to the 24-105mm f/4 along with a few crop sensor lenses. I agree that a prime such as the 85mm would be...

I think the most diplomatic way to solve this is to send an email explaining that you pay their wages and order them to do it... :-)

Could you not get a uses full frame camera? Also, remember the field of view (think thats the correct term) of your 50mm will be different on the FF. Is that ok for your needs? In the situation you've described, I wouldn't do it. I have a D7000 which I've just acquired and it's a good camera...

I didn't realise it meant that. Its also used as another word for 'thingy' as far as I know.

Lol, consider it though, you always want look your best when out in public :-)

Its not really zooming though if it has no optical zoom so it wouldn't affect it in that way.

The X100 has significantly better image quality and if you use a viewfinder as your first choice then the X100 may be a no brainer. However, the X20 is much more flexible with the zoom, has a better button layout, much faster autofocus amd is smaller. If you are happy with the image quality of...

Just to give my opinion on it. I have an Olympus OM-D with some good lenses, 20mm, 25mm 1.4, 45mm 1.8 and the cheap zooms 12-50mm kit and 40-150mm. I also have the x100s and X20 after owning the X100 and X10. I had all the same questions before I bought my X100. It was expensive, limited in...

Depends if your kit is already capable. If it is then away you go and market yourself. If not then you need to get your kit sorted. Sounds like you have the kit already otherwise you wouldn't think of advertising yourself yet.
