Think it's set to multi. If I think it's wrong, i AE lock on a diff scene and reframe.
Btw, I went out to shoot with the lowepro pouch, very good, but not enuff space for the lens adapter :p

so much for buying a compact camera :bsmilie:
 

Haha done liow loh but I still prefer a 43mm one because I can try the wide adaptor on it but with a 52 I will not be able to do so or it might not work properly.

Ask your favourite person to get the 43mm->52mm (or whatever sane size for you) adapter ring ....

But I dun think I'll use it for IR. Unless after getting the 43-52mm stepup and can get better results. For a small gathering or overseas trip, it's good for colour shots.
To shoot IR have to bring the lens adapter and stepup and IR filter abit sian :rolleyes:
 

those interested, there shld be new stocks coming in ard this wed. ;)
 

Just came back from AMK Hub MSC. $999 (usual 1099) for the GX100 with free

2Gb SD Card
External viewfinder EV-1
Wide conversion lens (GW-6)
Hood and adapter (HA-2)


That is cheap! CP is selling at 9XX and only come with external viewfinder! They said they don't have wide conversion lens now.
GRD is 960 w/o any accessories.
 

Hi guys,

just wondering if they have improved the movie quality in GX100? thx. :)

Its a one-time promotion by the agent. Theres also a 2 year extended warranty for a total of 3 years if you buy during this promo.
 

I just hit the promo offer by MS Color AMK Hub.

Unfortunately, I have to wait until Friday to pick up the external finder and wide-conversion / hood set. I hope there's no delay in that.

I sold off one digicam and one film cam to fund this purchase. It's unlike me to be an early adopter. I'm just hoping the set will exceed my expectations!

Off to read the manual.

Cheers,

JT
 

John3:16 stock coming in tomorrow. mid 9s
 

seriously thinking of buying other than cp and ms colour...did anyone check with ap?
and the free gifts how much are they worth and are they necessary in the first place?

For a 24mm (35mm equivalent) camera without a LCD that can tilt, you will want to have the electronic viewfinder.
 

ap quote for less than 800 today without any freebies...worth getting them?
 

I believe its the lens at its limit when at 72mm...
this sample on the net also has similar glowing on the left building&lampost...
setting similar as yours....

3,648×2,736 / 1/410秒 / F7.9 / -0.3EV / ISO80 / 絞り優先AE / WB:オート / 15.3mm

still its a great cam, with 24-72mm zoom and lower price than GRD...:thumbsup:


Some pics have this ghosting or glowing effect. Anyone else encounter this?

playing around with the camera at MSC today. the VF is a novelty, nothing worth spending the extra money on it. my opinion would be to skip it and just get the WA converter instead.

You're getting 2 years extended warranty in addition to the 'freebies' at MSC Ricoh roadshow. The sets sold elsewhere come with standard 1 year. Anyway the promotion is OVER :)

Performance is awesome for a compact. If you decide to let go yours, let me know :D
 

Here are some B&W out of the camera no PS just resize.

I like it. I would be better if color filter effects can be set in the camera.

The shot at the prawn fishing pond is with the WA adaptor. 4mm is what the EXIF data reports it as. There is a little plunger switch in the lens adaptor that tells the camera it is on I think.
