QUOTE(kevinliew @ Jan 5 2010, 05:52 PM) can anyone update me with the gf-1 20mm price in malaysia? oh man, i was just outbidded by someone in ebay... thanks You can ask around at the Garage Sales -> NotebooksPDAs&Cameras section. My guess the GF-1 with 20mm is around 3~3.2k  I am also looking for a Panasonice 20mm F1.7 lens ... but seemed all no stock  Added on January 6, 2010, 9:43 amQUOTE(Drian @ Jan 5 2010, 03:28 PM) Another GF1 user reporting here. Added on January 5, 2010, 3:32 pmI'm using the olympus FL-36R, works fine and able to do speed higher than 1/160. Good for flash fill. It takes two batteries, small and light engh for GF1. Recharging time is a bit slower though but good engh for my needs. Olympus and Metz (panasonic/olympus version ) can work with GF1. Bro, mind if you share some of your pics taken with the FL-36R ? Wanna see how good is it thanks. This post has been edited by Wuahaha: Jan 6 2010, 09:43 AM

QUOTE(maxxspeed @ Jan 6 2010, 11:37 PM) anyone here can or help me in searching the ViewFinder for GF1 ? price ? where ? thx The External View Finder for GF1 cost around RM6xx, you may find it in Shashinki, Yamiya or some ppl selling at the LYF Garage. QUOTE(Drian @ Jan 7 2010, 01:37 AM) I don't have a ceiling bounce flash photo to show you since I just bought it. I'm just using it for fill flash day time in FP AUTO TTL mode , with high shutter speeds. It keeps my subject properly exposed and to make sure it is slightly brighter than the background. Those photos doesn't really show the FL-36R potential though, since fill flash power is very low. The charging is nearly instantaneous in this mode. To test its potential you will probably want to see indoor potraits or group photos with the flash bounce of a ceiling where the flash full power will be used. Oic ... thanks.

QUOTE(hellfire8888 @ Jan 7 2010, 09:41 AM) hmm who got clue where to get pana 20mm f1.7 and the latest price. thanks Can find around rm1380~14xx , am trying to order one too but it's all out of stock QUOTE(samurai1337 @ Jan 7 2010, 05:25 PM) Wow, more and more GF1 users here. Just wondering (for GF1 Jpeg shooters) what Film mode are you guys using? As the default setting makes the JPEG output rather soft and flat, I am using VIB (vibrant) with extra contrast, saturation and sharpness (all +2). The output may appear to be unworldly to some but I like the punchier output as opposed to the default setting  I'm using default one, sometimes depending of the style though, I also prefer punchier color but sometimes dun really get the output I like. Sometimes I just think it's cos of the hazy weather.

Want to ask you guys, does all Panasonic lenses come with warranty, when bundle with kit or buy separately?  BTW, anyone know any good Panasonic camera shops around PJ/KL area? Looking to buy m4/3 or 4/3 lenses for my GF1. This post has been edited by Wuahaha: Jan 7 2010, 10:50 PM

QUOTE(gogo2 @ Jan 15 2010, 10:44 AM) Woow, that's troublesome indeed. For Panasonic GF1: 1. Just need to download and copy the firmware into SD card and pop it into the camera. 2. Make sure you have full battery power. 3. On the camera and press "Play/Review" to read the firmware and it will prompt to update. Simple as that, same goes for updating Panasonic lenses.

QUOTE(samurai1337 @ Jan 15 2010, 01:31 PM) Yeah, that's surprisingly easy that I couldn't believe it was updated, till I manually check the version from menu again. I really dislike installing software and get it connected to PC, wait for it to download and update it like update my phone. Panasonic did a great job on the ease of use. QUOTE(hellfire8888 @ Jan 15 2010, 01:56 PM) any improvement after firmware update? To answer you question ... I dun really notice the improvements as I didn't benchmark the before and after firmware upgrade. I forgot what the update was, better auto focus and better on higher ISO? Perhaps got but really hard to notice.

Hellfire, really nice shoots you got there. QUOTE(free_enuf @ Jan 18 2010, 10:01 PM) Poisoned... Now its really difficult between 20/1.7 and 25/1.4 haha! Let me help you haha ... if you got the money go for 25mm F1.4 (Rm3.7k and requires the 4/3 adapter) else 20mm F1.7 (Rm1.4k).  BTW, it can auto focus using GF1 also.

QUOTE(samurai1337 @ Feb 3 2010, 10:31 AM) What's wrong with Olympus? They release way too many M43 phones in a short time... don't you guys think it unnecessarily devalues other M43 cameras (especially the Olympus E-P1 and E-P2)? Good thing is, finally new lenses from Oly  Hey I think it's good ... the more M43 cameras (not phones ah, samurai  ) come out, the more people will adopt it then the more lenses will come out  Hopefully make it more popular and cheaper.
