Probably better suited to digital capture. In any event, the image quality of the new lens will be superb.

I think you'll have change to spare from your deal.

Which came first? The Classified Ads section, for which we pay a small fee.

Then the forum section was added as a service to forum members, and it's free.

Both are available still, as some seem to prefer the original. The choice is there, and there's no downside to it.

Be happy if people wouldn't post replies to spam, it only generates a notification to them that their message has been read and responded to. Then they'll come back and look....

We can all help by totally ignoring them.

Not at all, you've missed the release of the Ricoh GR dedicated website, where the full story is told. Have a look at that and you'll see I'm far from disinterested.

I didn't want to distract too much from their purpose on my own blog, which moves from subject to subject as the mood takes. It's not a promotional blog!

You could wipe the electronic contacts on mount and lens with a soft dry cloth to remove ant grease build up. Otherwise, there's not much you can do apart from checking batteries and then sending the camera back to JPS for a quote.

Both colour or black and white are fine, but what is very disturbing is the way everything but the car is blurred. That's very unnatural - there should be a plane of sharp focus where the car is sharp, gradually falling off in front and behind. Here everything has the same degree of blur everywhere.

Agree with Mike. I have the 18-135mm, a great lens, and have used the 18-270mm, also very useful if maybe a shade behind the 55-300mm in performance. Not sure about that, I had the 18-270mm too short a time.

If I was buying now, I'd still probably go for the two lens option as the WR is so useful.

If you don't want the newsletter you should be able to unsubscribe to it.

You've nailed the butterfly, but those JPEG settings will not get the best out of camera or lens.
