Yes, I received the email but I have been preoccupied with moving 180GB of photos to my server and then deleting them from my laptop. Always a scary moment when you say Ok to delete. Not sure of the solution to merging the directories yet. I have some volunteer IT work to finish and then will get

Re: What are the shortcomings of you as a photographer?

I don't see that it would make me a better photographer if Pentax released the camera of my dreams. If Pentax released an affordable FF K mount digital body I would be able to use all lenses I've accumulated over the last couple of decades, otherwise I'll eventually have to take a big hit on my

Re: what do you think of the ricoh GR?

Today I had the chance to briefly hold this camera at a photo show and it feels extremely well (ergonomically speaking). The fixed lens limits the uses of the camera, but is mandatory to reach this size and (presumibly) IQ. I have read some early comparisons and it seems very competitive with an

Re: Sigma 18-35mm f1.8 DC HSM

An 18-35mm f1.8 designed for a full frame sensor would probably weigh 75% more and take a 88mm filter size and cost twice as much. One of the more fascinating things about this lens (to me) is the upgradable firmware and setting for front/backfocus in the lens itself? I'm not terribly up on modern

Re: what do you think of the ricoh GR?

Possibly the wrong f/l for me, and I already have too many cameras. In every other respect it is great. Sure, no EVF, but there is an accessory optical finder and if I understand it the "snap shoot" feature correctly that would be enough to make this a great street camera and possibly travel cam
