I could speak two languages fluently, problem is having not spoken one of them for ten years you start to forget words.



I can say odd or silly things in French or German but nothing generally useful.

Aye, the e-IPS 2209WA is very good value for money but it is 100% sRGB only. I think he is looking for an AdobeRGB screen.

Depends what you want it for.

I think the consensus is you'll lose no features and gain a fair few.

Selling is you'd probably get £200ish trade in about half that.

Technically the LCD screen is a viewfinder and electronic, is it not?

If you wanted a decent battery life you can always wrap the camera in a scarf with some hand warmer sacks near the battery or keep the battery in your pocket and only put it in when you intend to take a shot?

Weird, never even thought about that happening.

Depends how much you want to spend. If you print your own work then AdobeRGB coverage is good. If you use a commercial lab they all use sRGB so going for an e-IPS panel could be cheaper.

I've only ever used Extreme III SD 20MB/s Extreme III SDHC 30MB/s and Extreme Pro SDHC 45MB/s. Never seen one fail, getting files off the cards is fast and there is no bottleneck to the camera. In fact the camera is slower than any of the Extreme range cards. I have had several cheaper cards fail, they were standard Sandisk cards.

I wouldn't go with anything slower than class 10 as they become cumbersome especially for PC transfers. I hate writing or reading to slower cards as it takes forever. The worst is my 32GB class 2 card that I got for my phone. Syncing music to that takes many hours.

Get a card rated at bursts of 20MB/s to be safe. Good class 10 cards fall under this category.

It was one of the cameras I short-listed for my brother.

He went for an Olympus in the end as it had a 24mm FoV wide end and USB charging so he can travel light with just his phone charger for several devices.
