OK, not a beginner but one has problems with memory, therefor I get a bit nervouse with new stuff. I have not updated any of my post processing soft ware or used it for a long while now, curently on 'Photoshop 8'. Equaly, I have not taken any serious pictures for this period, I'm very stale.
One has come from DSLR on to 4/3 for practical reasons, G1, loved it, G5 lost the desire, I should have kept the G1. Long break, sold most of the kit and now have a GX8, I'm happy enough to work my way throught the GX8 but I am at a lose to know where to go with prosessing, I dont even know if my computer will handle the GX8 technologies, a bit of a 'numpty' realy where computers are concerned, so I keep it very simple.
There is also the video side, interested in dipping the toe in but where to start?
I havent even taken the GX8 out of its box yet, waited to get all the bits together and a shed project finished.
So, here I stand GX8 in hand, set on auto for startes, take some pictures, will my PS8 work? Where best to look to upgrade if upgrade is required to acomodate 'video?' . . . remembering my watch word is 'simple'.
Be much apreciated if someone could point a nervous, returning dyslexic tog in the right direction. There you have it, dyslexia causes me memory and reading dificulties, plus as a senior citizen the brain aint that quick, I'm not stupid but do have to deal with dyslexic blocks. One aproaches a problem from another direction which often gives me a unique view of a problem
Thank you, CJS
