I'm currently using GF2... They have removed the shutter release plug...

Is there any other alternative ways of using a remote shutter release?
Maybe control through the hot shoe?

yea.. that is the only option now... however, lets say you are traveling... you are taking a photo with timer yourself... the camera will be unattended for 10s or more... snatch thieves might just walk in and steal...

If you have a wireless shutter, you can snap a shot in less than 10s...

Does anyone know where I can get 46mm and 52mm B+W lens filter f-pro or xs-pro?

I've checked with a few forumers here... seems like it was stated on their thread but they don't take in...

Anyone have bought these before? anywhere?

Wow~! 25mm/0.95

Me want too~

Btw we can't use auto focus on the Voigtlander 25mm/0.9 right?

What about a replacement battery for GF2? Any good brands?

original pan cost around RM260...

Third party seems like around RM100

Anyone tried these type of lens? http://bit.ly/nCiXvv
Any comment on it?

I'm new to photography... don't really understand these:

I'm thinking of a Helios seems nice and affordable...

Can get sample photo of the same picture with both Helios44 (58mm) and the kit lens (14mm)?

I'm very itchy dy.. need someone to push me to get one.. :-P

58mm and 14mm comparison...

Actually I'm new to these... how do you set it to f3.5? the distance of focus?

Hahah I've confused you... I want to check out the wide difference between a 116mm(35mm eq) and 28mm(35mm eq)...
For example, if you stand 0.5m away from the focus object... how much difference in wideness...
Not sure if you can get me some image to compare the amount that can cover... I want to know if potrait is good or not...

Thank you so much!

Hey thanks for the picture!
The bokeh is nice but the 50mm is a little too narrow.. hmm..

Hey can use with micro fourth thirds? What mount adapter to use?

Wow I wish I can have enough money to buy both...

If you have budget, get a B+W...
It's worth the money...

I've been travelling in Australia recently, Spring season is the worst, with rain and sudden temperature change of 10-15 degree celcius.

Water droplets just slights off the filter without leaving a trace. else just puff a breath on the filter and it is clean! Fog on filter leaves very fast.

Hahah ever since I put on B+W, I've nvr put the lens cap on... lol

Polarize... get a cheap one and try first...
Not everyone like polarized... bcoz your settings might go 1 step down...


creezalird,
I've asked my friend to get for me in US. So happen he is there... In Malaysia, I think they have run out of stock...

I use my lens hood when I'm travelling and don't want to have lens cap on.. it protect the any dust or water droplet on the lens when drizzle..
But it does help a lot to reduce flare when u have a bright light, like Sun, on ur top 4 corner..

Just shoot raw... Won't have wb issue...
can be post process after that...

Try dpreview
it have more comprehensive reviews...

jloi,

nice artistry pictures...

did you use flash?

I'm still finding hard to take night shots...

Hey guys...

I've recently came to interest of these 2 lens:
1. Panasonic/Leica 14-50 f/2.8-3
2. Olympus Zuiko Digital 14-54 mm f/2.8-3.5

I'm currently using GF2. I have quesitons on:
1. Can both of these work on auto focus of GF2? (using four third mount)
2. I wouldn't ask which is better but rather what are the pro and cons of each of the lens? How would you compare these 2?
3. Does it matters if Pana/Leica don't have a weatherproof?
4. Pana/Leica have OIS but Zuiko don't have, does this affect GF2 picture bcoz it doesn't have IS...

Your comment is much appreciated. Thanks
