Hello,
this is just my second post here - and for a good reason - since several years most of my photography was done with medium format cameras (Mamiya 6, Rolleiflex T, Minolta Autocord) and bit of LF and my only digital camera was GRDIII. But times change and with our first baby on the way I realised that I need some sort of compact nice digital camera.
To be honest - I was VERY close preordering (that would have been my first) to E-M1 with 12-40 lens, but being honest with myself the V1 will probably deliver all the quality I will need (in a very small package) for about 25% the price - my wife particularly appreciates the second part :tongue:
I am really curios about the camera - I only had it in hand once about a year ago and remember the very fast screen & EVF reaction and small, solid body. And a fast AF.
I have decided to go the the fixed focal length lenses as I do not really need zoom lens and wanted higher speed and a bit better optical quality. I may later add the 30-110 as it seems to be a very good performer.
I just realised that I will probably need some sort of RAW converter as my CS3 is probably too old for Nikon V1 files. Any advice on the free options?
Also - any tips & tricks & workarounds would be very appreciated.
I am looking forward to hang around here more regularly from now on
