Seems like M43 still too heavy for long hiking so I'm selling off my system. Let me know if anyone interested as I will definitely give a good deal.

I hope your photos in HDD got backup or redundancy.
Once HDD damage, everything gone.

For me, I upload all my photos to Synology 213J with Mirroring redundancy setup.
My iPhone and iPad also sync the photos to the NAS with Photosync app.

I cannot afford to lost my son precious photos. smile.gif

Since am not pro-photog, I care about IQ only, if IQ similar then no problem for me. I think advantages of m4/3 small sensor is relatively cheaper large aperture lens ? A m4/3 f1.8 lens cost almost half of price for f1.8 on canikon, still cheaper than Sony FE I think. Larger sensor give shallower bokeh but most of the time we step down aperture ?

I dont really care on number of focus point also as my method are single point FTW  laugh.gif 

That been said, am still interested on A7 series for them to be mature ? More lens ? Hopefully cheaper  cry.gif  If it's not expensive then easier to switch ma  brows.gif

Ehhh, f1.8 on M4/3 and f1.8 on FF is huge different in term of DOF. They are not the same f1.8.

To be honest, i cant remember the actual price cos I bundled the A7 with other stuffs as well. I only remember the total amount but not the amount of a7 individually (If i not wrong its 2.7k) doh.gif  Cos i agreed upon the price like long time but only able to get hold of camera recently. The previous owner did some mod on A7 with better lens mount cos A7 known to have shitty mount.

The previous owner had to camera so he did not have teh chance to use it

Anyway here are the photos in sony jpeg without any touch out done. Lens is Nikon 35mm F2 and 50mm F1.8 e series

Exactly! Really Salute those photographer old day!
I visited KL Bird Park with my A7II + some old Canon FD lenses, focus those moving birds are almost impossible! vmad.gif

At the end, can only shoot those birds that station still.

This was shoot with Canon FD 135mm f2.8 wide open.

A6000 with kit lens can get below 2K ? Is A6000's lens compatible with A7's ? If yes, good choice as easier for future upgrade, if no then better avoid. EM10m2 using m4/3 mount so it's universal compatible with Oly/Pan/other lens.

Personally I dont like EVF that's not at center axis, I always have difficult time composing using phone, for near distance object  laugh.gif

A6000 and A7 series are all E-Mount, so all the E-Mount lenses are compatible.
However, E lenses mounted on A7 will only get APSC resolution, not Full Frame.

It's about 2-2.1k right now..
Only EM10m2 can use lenses from other brand? How bout EM10m1?
With my budget I can only get the EM10m1  hmm.gif
Haha.. don't think I'll need to cover all the focal range..
To spend so much on lenses.. my gf will whack me..
I've played with the A6000, doesn't have the chance to try out the E-M10 yet but will go and have a look when I'm free
*
If i were you, perhaps i will go for EM10m1 + Olympus 25mm f1.8. The most versatile lens for all purposes.
If you want standard wide angle, get the Panasonic 14mm f2.5

Your gears will be very tiny and no burden at all smile.gif

See this poison post from Robin about Olympus 25mm f1.8: http://robinwong.blogspot.my/2015/11/the-5...ve-weekend.html

After reading the link below, I find that the lack of 5-axis IBIS doesn't really matter to me.. it's not that I always shoot with low shutter speed..

http://www.mirrorlessons.com/2014/01/31/3-...-with-the-e-m5/

EM10 will still be my 1st choice ..

Fully agree. i dont think the 5 or 3 Axis IS will have major different in real life usage.

OK, now you decided EM10, is time for lenses rclxm9.gif

Had a little more play with the gurl fren 7... yup... sure looks better than the RX100.

ps: I've taken more or less the same shots at the same place with my other cameras so I know more or less how it looks.
