Retirement Home for old Cockatoos
Retirement Home for old Cockatoos
Got myself an early christmas present..;) Panasonic LX3. Being playing with it over the last week and I can see what the hype is all about - it is a superb piece of kit. Having owned only SLRs for the past 10 years, this is going to change the way I take photos.
Also have started to use Lightroom instead of PS to speed up my workflow as well. Anyway, my first "proper" LR + LX3 pic...

Nice one armadillo....I'm sure you will have lots of fun.
That's a lovely photo. We got our LX3 in May and absolutely love it. If your the sort of person that wants to impress your friends with "my new camera has a 50 bazillion times zoom" then the LX3 is not for you. However it you want to take **really** good photos with a compact in all manner of low light conditions then it is unprecedented. It's capabilities are lost on people who buy Cannon Ixus.Quote:

Panasonic have just introduced a camera that is between the LX3 and an slr. Read about it here - GF1 review.. I'm very interested to find out more about this camera although I'm not sure it would be for us. However if you wanted 1 camera to be your SLR and compact...
I couldn't agree more. It's a great camera.Quote:

A pity really, because the Minolta 7D and the early ('80s) AF Minolta lens are superb and I had become quite attatched to them. :(.
Hi all, I have been doing a photography course the last couple of weeks on portraiture, and here are some of the results from me.

Good one Matt, I like the sepia version.
who you doing your course with Matt?
I would like to do some more courses
Nice and sharp Matt. Was the course on-line or an attended one?
Was run by a local Melbourne photographer, was very good. Cheap too.
