Thanks for clarifying term bokeh. However, while I maybe ignorant, I certainly did not mean candid equals to bokeh - that much I know. As for the rest of my wrongful usage, I apologise. Good to learn that complaints of m4/3 owners difficulty on the blurrier background but it is still...

Thanks for all the inputs. I've narrowed down to either the GX1 or the EP3. Just to recap, basically i'm looking to capture candid (bokeh) photos of my baby with ease. I'm not expecting 100% capture success but at least the camera's technology should be able to help me with this. Is...

I was wondering: If I have a 50mm f/1.8D Nikon lens - which of my mirrorless camera options above can the lens be fitted on?

Hi, a full DSLR is out of the qn for me. I prefer a compact & lightweight alternative (if possible).

I learnt about OM-D yesterday, waaaaaaay too over my budget. I've basically narrowed down to the : E-P3 / E-PL3 : Seems to be a very popular choice with alot of resources available online for newbies like me. GX1 : I've seen the reviews and it seems to be a major contender NEX-C7 : From my...

Pardon my ignorance & much limited knowledge on technical jargons but what's BnS? 45 f/1.8 is prime lens? If so, the lens has AF capabilities? The "R" Kit lens comes with both EP3 and EPL3 right? Thanks.

Thanks for sharing. What an insightful thread! Your photos are beautiful though it makes me really envious as my kid is growing fast and I have yet to capture many of the wonderful moments of his months of growing. Btw, the cameras you mentioned are capable of 'similar' shots ? I know there's...

Another question I have is, while I'd much welcome the compactness and weight of M4/3, would the lightweight make it harder for me to stable myself with the camera while taking shots as already with a DSLR I am quite shaky.

Thanks for confirming my doubts on the P&S. Seems like M4/3 is the way to go. How much is the GX1 going for 1.2k++? Also, considering if I do get GX1 or E-PL3/PM1, what lenses would be good to add for the purpose of primarily capturing good shots of my kid (under low light condition without...

Thanks for the prompt reply. Considering my requirements, would you recommend E-PM1 (kit + additional lens) or E-PL3 (standard kit lens) ?

I've tried using a d3000 (my brother's) taking photos of my son indoors and because there is no auto-focus for his prime lens, manual focusing is required and out of 10 shots, 8 came out blur. Recently, my friend came over for an evening and took some really great shots of my kid and I was...
