Glad you're liking it Andrew. The RX1 and the Coolpix A really is a hell of a combination. One a more deliberate camera with insane IQ, the other a quick little spontaneous shooter with very damned good IQ. I'm gonna have both of them in New York City for a quick weekend visit in a few days. Just slightly looking forward to it!This past Sunday I took a number of pictures with the Nikon A (and Sony RX1) at the family Easter gathering, under tough conditions inside a dark floating home with bright windows all around, and I was mightily impressed with the A! I believe that Ray called the A a Ricoh GRD on steroids, and that's just about true. Even though it operates differently than the GRD I can use it for most part in the same way. The JPGs are very good, but I'm anxiously awaiting RAW support. I need to make an editorial pass of the images and tweak the files, but I'll try to post a few pictures here soon.
The only hiccup was that we took a few group photos and with each photo the 10 second timer reset to single shot mode (without the timer). Need to look that one up in the manual
I'll say it again... it is so nice to have a high quality single focal length 28mm serious compact camera! For me, the A is really a dream, and I'm very glad that I dove in (after hearing about Ray's first impressions).
