Hmm Olympus having sale now. I saw e-p2 is selling at 3999 from the ad in newspaper. Is it a good deal? If yes which lens should I pick? The 17mm or 14-42mm lens?

for those ep-1 and ep-2 owners, they don't come with built-in flash. so what you guys get for flash?

I just got myself a gf1. Playing around with it. I wonder where is the function to create or change the folder where the pics are saved. Seems like ther is no create folder in the settings. Hmm

QUOTE(Wuahaha @ Jun 7 2010, 09:15 AM) It auto creates the folders for you on your SD card. Dun think there is a create folder setting though. i was thinking like how to create a folder just to save all the pics snapped on that certain event so that i can easily transfer the whole folder to my comp from the SD card.  |

QUOTE(Wuahaha @ Jun 8 2010, 10:34 PM) I check by counting on the filenames generated, rough estimate. but if the user reset and format the card then the count also hilang already, isn't it? Take my GF1 for example the folder in the SD card: DCIM->100_PANA->P1000001.jpg <-- first file run till p1000999.jpg (meaning 999 count) Then it creates another folder with name --> 101_PANA. You get the idea.  So every folder has 999 files, not sure about video files though |

QUOTE(mersey96 @ Jun 11 2010, 11:46 AM) not really... The lousy filter will degrade the quality of ur picture hmm thanks for the advice so that is why we need multi coated blah blah blah u try to compare a B+W with a china brand then you'll see the difference IMO, If you can afford, u should spend more on UV than PL filter.. Because the UV filter will stick to ur lens most of the time but u only need PL occasionally i'm not sure whether the filter i'm using now is good or not so let me go back and check it later haha |
