    Looking for a pocket camera

    I really like my XF10 and have never had any issues focussing in low light....but then depends on what you mean is lowlight? Took it to a club and took pictures of a dancer and singer which really surprised me with the IQ. I use mine for street and family snaps....the images are very sharp and...

    24-120 4G or 50mm 1.8G for portraits

    Nikon 70-200 f2.8 VRII vs Tamron 70-200 G2

    Yes agreed...although I was thinking of a second hand VRII which brings the price down to something comparable....having said that there are features of the G2 that I really like such as the Tap in console which should get over the obsolescence issue....the G2 is also a bit warmer than the Nikon...

    nikon 70-300 af-p fx

    Opps...posted a thread exactly as this one before seeing it...apologies did not mean to hijack anything...so will be interested in the conclusion here. I have the S version and wondering if it's worth upgrading to the P version...it seems not given the response so far.

    Worth upgrading to the new 70-300 Nikkor E f4.5-5.6 VR?

    Does anybody have any experience of the new Nikkor 70 to 300 E f 4.5-5.6 lens. I have the older version (G) and while its superb at the lower focal lengths it is a little soft at the outer reaches. Is the new version any better and therefore worth upgrading to? Any views?
