Looks pretty cold, especially for someone like me who lives in the subtropics, I'm curious what sort of temps you had?
I also like the idea of a small camera like the gh2 + 20/1.7, how do you find it in regard to image quality, size etc?
phan_TOM wrote:I carry a 40d with a couple of lenses & batteries etc etc which adds up so I know what you mean. I have a panny FT1 (which replaced a G9) as a compact but it leaves a lot to be desired in regard to image quality, mainly got it for on the kayak though.
If you do a lot of kayaking and 'wet' stuff, might be worth checking out the Olympus Pens - Oly make a range of decently priced underwater housings for them... http://www.olympus.com.au/Products/Unde ... r-PEN.aspx Obviously a fair bit bigger than an FT1, but a pretty stella kit if you're rather keen.
I really like the GH2 with the primes, so small and excellent IQ to boot and the 20/1.7 is only 100g! Pretty impressive and it seems to get good reviews too.
Unless you're fairly serious about video I'd probably go the G3 over the GH2 - similar IQ, smaller and cheaper... The Lumix 14/f2.5 is worth checking out as well, so small it feels like a lens-cap![]()
I also see that Panasonic has released some collapsible zoom lenses >> http://www.dpreview.com/news/1108/11082615panasonic14-42Xpreview.asp which, if they are as good as they claim, adds to the appeal and versatility without much bulk.
Yeah it's pretty amazing how small they managed to make it! Certainly not cheap though so it'll be interesting to see what the reviews say about quality...
Still, theres much truth to thew old saying 'The most important of a camera is the 12 inches begind the viewfinder". It makes me smile when I show people my photos and they "yeah, but you have a good camera", I've seen some real rubbish from people carryting all manner of pro gear
lol indeed![]()
