I bought my camera when they announced an optical viewfinder for manual lenses, but then they changed their minds. without a view finder in bright light I cannot see a thing on my LCD screen.rats. i have not tried the electronic viewfinder on my camera. If i had a choice now I'd buy the GH2, even though it's bigger. It has more oomph- a better viewfinder being one of them-ommphs.Sarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12801858119721442559noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21561568.post-74740165466004758112010-12-16T19:34:42.426-08:002010-12-16T19:34:42.426-08:00Thanks, Lesli.

Came away from show with obsessions for new cameras, raw denim and Gabe's Pelican city bike with Albatross bars.<br /><br />I'd move in a minute if Levi's would give me some mid level leather patch debossing job (provided housing was included w/employment).<br /><br />GMB--<br /><br />I ordered my jacket directly from Mubec/Drybones in Tokyo. Limited stock but I understand that they might do more in the future. Ask K. at Self Edge.<br /><br />The sweater is a navy multiweave...navy/black/gray. We'll have these in Feb. We only ordered one or two XXS so stay tuned. It fits a size 4-6 woman.<br /><br />LLLesli Larsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13008748945065043600noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21561568.post-58508432150421213862010-12-16T14:29:09.295-08:002010-12-16T14:29:09.295-08:00Looks like a great time!Looks like a great time!Chris Adamiak (Damn Yak Dry Good Co.)http://www.damnyak.canoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21561568.post-33344333220378496482010-12-16T10:55:58.320-08:002010-12-16T10:55:58.320-08:00I need to be careful reading this blog.

I now have your shawl cardi in blue (love it), rucksack in black (love it), and I WANT a bunch of other stuff -- Middleburn jacket, your gray shawl, your multi-weave shawl, GF1, a new bike ... yikes.<br /><br />Caneras - <br />You might start with 'do I want to go with removable lenses (SLR or MFT), or with a fixed lens outfit?' If you already have an SLR, you might simply look into a 1.8 or 1.4 lens that works well in low light/no flash situations. If you'll be new to SLRs, keep in mind you're buying into, & hopefully staying with, a particular family of lenses (ex: Nikon lenses work on Nikons, not Canon or Panasonic, etc). So, unless you're planning to sell it in a couple of years you'll probably be most concerned about what lenses are available to you. The body will become out of date but the lenses can be used as the model body gets updated. <br /><br />If you like the GF1, you should research the Micro Four Thirds (MFT) system. It has interchangeable lenses but is NOT an SLR format. Panasonic (GF1 & soon to be released GF2) and Olympus (E-P1 & E-P2 -- IMO better looking in a retro sort of way than the GF1) are the pioneers of this interesting, growing but still nitche marketplace. Here's a GF1/E-P1 comparison: http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/PanasonicGF1/page32.asp<br /><br />Here's the latest on lens compatability for the GF1: http://panasonic.jp/support/global/cs/dsc/connect/g1.html <br /><br />If you're considering fixed lens cameras, have you seen the Lumix DMC-LX5? It has all the good looks of the GF1, in an even smaller package, and it can be operated in full manual or full auto mode. And it's gorgeous. It shall be mine someday (... probably when it's the LX8 or 9).Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12291120645577629693noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21561568.post-23324606798821881132010-12-16T09:37:57.585-08:002010-12-16T09:37:57.585-08:00It looks like you had a great time in the city.. s...It looks like you had a great time in the city.. so bummed I missed you guys.

Does an US retailer carry it? Also, the photo id'd as an XXS shawl collared navy multiweave--is that really navy? It's looks like the gray/black multiweave you carry.
