Newbie X100 owner here. A lovely camera to use. Here's a couple of pics.

Thanks for all your replies.

My other Lumix ( a GF1) has always had a lesser rattle. I don't want to send it back to find out the next one is exactly the same. :shake:

Hi, I've just bought a second hand lumix GH2 and is rattles loudly inside. It does so, on or off, and irrespective of if a lens is affixed. Any GH2 owners experienced similar, or does it go back? Thanks Rich

I thought Lou looked a little yellow, and the outside of the shop a bit cold.

Looks good. I'd have a look at the white balance if you can though.

If you're going to the Peak District on a BH then unless you're aiming for "street style photography" then you really need to head off into the sticks. I can spend a day around my patch and see no one, but as I said earlier avoid the common thoroughfares, and the touristy villages.

I'm a bit further north in the Dark Peak. Lots of nice views here. My suggestion, get a map and venture into the open access lands (marked on 1:25,000 maps), avoiding footpaths, that'll give you a unique perspective on the area.

Has anyone tried using the Yongnuo triggers succesfully to trigger a second camera and remote flashes? eg Sender on the handheld camera fires the second camera which has the flash sender in its hotshoe. I know in theory that it works. In practice do you need to use a slower shutter speed...

Thanks. If you live locally, I'd keep an eye out. I was taking to the owners and they were saying they were hoping to host a number of events in the near future.

I know it's past now, but I've only just seen this thread. I was there in the rain both days. Tip 1. Bodge some sort of clear plastic bag to your lens hood, which extends over the camera body. The majority of shots I took used flash, though I did some with just ambient. I used two...

As others have said most of the images appear to be bad crops. Only the 2 girls looking up and the guy with his hand in front of his eyes work imho.
