    Compact camera options?

    Interesting. I hadn't considered a G1Xiii. Specs, size and appearance all look good. Happy to look at used in good condition, as I had already concluded I wouldn't get anything comparably good. Struggling to find any G1Xiii for £500, whether in stores or even ebay at the moment.

    Compact camera options?

    I've been in a bit of a rut photography wise, since the beginning of Covid in 2020 really.

    crop sensor wide angle upgrade options

    Currently have a Tokina 12-24mm F4 X-Pro II ultra wide zoom. While it suits my needs very well for the range, it suffers a lot from distortion and softness away from the centre. I don't use it a lot (last use was November 2017) but I'm thinking of upgrading it to something with better...

    Stumbled across this spotless gem in the supermarket carpark this week. Sadly I couldn't hang around for the owner to come out, but it looked just as good inside as it did outside. Buick Eight by Matt, on Flickr

    Military Aircraft: airshows, operational, whatever, lets see what you have!

    Wow! Sadly I will be at work, but they are due to fly right over where I live...just a little too far from where I work :( Think I may try to beg off work for a long lunch if the weather looks promising!

    Cruise Liner send off in style.

    I have been over a few times over the years, we usually go view the Lymington Ferry though. Can't resist a trip to the Needles.

    Cruise Liner send off in style.

    Thanks :) Not quite the same place then, I was about halfway along the pier where the RedJet departs from. Always a great choice to capture fireworks with reflections over the water :)

    Cruise Liner send off in style.

    Not sure what the liners were, taken while waiting for a bonfire display in 2015. From possibly the very same spot Graham stood to take his in the first post! Untitled by Matt, on Flickr
