Seen some of Doug's shots on FB. I must say the Fujifilm X-Pro 1 is looking rather good. Everyone seems to love it. Pricey than what I was planning to spend on a camera body, but... Anyway, still researching... Marnie aka Doe :-) In a message dated 9/7/2013 11:45:40 A.M. Pacific Daylight T

Thanks, Walt. If I consider a specific system, then I really like hearing about specific lenses for that system. Well, maybe I am dumping my Canon at just the right time, and will watch for reviews of the GX-7. New toys, new toys, new toys!!! Heh. Marnie aka Doe :-) In a message dated 9/
