It was shot at 35mm and ISO 400.

The original Q is capable of very nice quality, but the Q-S1 is better, on a par with the excellent MX-1. Both the Q-S1 and MX-1 have the slightly larger sensor, and as compact cameras this small difference does make a visible difference in quality.

I found this fantastic clematis in the garden where we were staying, so shot in both on the K-5 and the Q-S1. This is the version from the Q-S1 with the 15-45mm telephoto zoom.

You'll find this and many other cottages on the Cottages4You and Welcome Cottages websites. They are actually the same company, so whichever one you choose it's all the same.

It's great these days, holiday cottages have WiFi so we can be away with out being away. Fantastic! Anyway, this is the cottage, actually farmhouse, that we rented for the week:

More to follow soon, but the fisheye seemed to work well from the bottom of the garden.

I had one which I reviewed with the KS-2 for PU/EPZ and I used it during a wedding shoot. Absolutely fine, a good standard zoom and it stood up perfectly well against the other lenses I was using.

There's a 20% discount form that can be downloaded from this site, see Shop>Exclusive discounts

You'll need to join PU Plus, but well worth it.

If you can let me know which thread I'll have a look and see if the comments are there but not showing.

There's no generalised problem, so it is more likely to be a local internet glitch.

I don't think such a comparison is possible. The 20-35mm was fine on film, but whether or not it's a good choice for digital remains to be seen.

The 20-35mm is also an excellent lens.
