rpm40's recent activity

  • If this ends up being the g7x ii, not much to get excited about. Faster performance and a tilt screen would be nice, but not worth an upgrade. Then again, I don't think it needs too much. A ...
  • Since he owns a g7x, im sure he meant what he said. I own one too, and I see his point- it is fine in a jacket pocket, but tight in a pants pocket. The s series fits fine in any pocket. I would ...
  • Out of curiosity I tried to Google relevant sales figures by brand or model and came up dry. Do you have any? I have seen this back and forth come up a few times on these forums, people often ...
  • I agree, while I admire the creativity of using your gear for other purposes, it is probably more trouble than it's worth. Battery life, storage, etc. The dash cams do their job well, no need to ...
  • Dan, I don't think you have much to worry about, I have never heard of a camera's image quality being effected from leaving it in a car. If you want to be extra safe, just leave it in a case. The ...
  • I think when there is a series of different models like we have with the g/9/7/5/3x, each with its own price bracket at least $100 away from the other, it sort of forces the prices to hold firm ...
  • If you want only 1 camera, go for the g7x. It's lens is very flexible, from 24mm to 100mm you get both wider and longer than a kit lens, and it is fast at every focal length, so is very capable in ...
  • Yeah, and we were talking about weather the rx100s were overhyped. I would say "receiving the most views" is a good indicator of hype.
  • First, try taking out the batteries, and holding the power button for about 10 seconds. Then put the batteries back in and try again. If the error message returns it is usually one of two things, ...
  • I agree that the rx100s are a little overhyped (the rx100 iv is the most popular camera on this site despite being a nearly $1,000 compact, which I think is a ludicrous price point for what it ...
  • I think the better sensor is inevitable- the mk ii sensor was showing its age when it was released, and canon has newer stuff now for a new model. Hopefully the processor will be a step up too- I'm ...
  • Replied in Chill Folks
    I understand his sentiment is a tough sell on a site where most users have a serious case of gas, but sometimes using the old gear can be fun too! I picked up a pair of Canon A520s for my nephews ...
  • Get it right? The rx100 series has been a huge success for Sony, though it may not appeal to you. Really,  the rx100iii is more like a half sized sensor with an upgraded lens. I imagine the ...
  • If I were going to use any kind of waterproof pouch or case, dry bag or box, etc., I would also toss in one of those moisture absorbing silica packets (the kind you sometimes find in shoeboxes) to ...
  • Barney,

    I think you would be better off simply not dignifying these types of accusations with a response. Don's concerns aren't shared by most readers on this site. Getting into snits with the...

  • Though I wouldn't worry to much about this issue, I doubt weathersealed models will give you any additional protection. They are certainly not airtight, the air will find a way in. Actually, I ...
  • Replied in Can't what...?
    The W5 was a very nice little compact in its day, with a nice lens, little optical viewfinder and lots of manual controls. The CCD sensor probably gives pretty clean images at low ISOs too. For on ...
  • Why do you want to supplement the rx100? Sounds to me like the rx100 will probably do just as well for you as either of these. Both models you are looking at are pretty similar to what you already ...
  • Things I would like to see -Built in EVF ala G5X -New sensor -Weather sealing A little more zoom would be nice too, but I know that would probably require some optical compromises with the lens. I ...
  • Nice job playing with the aperture and managing to get the star effect during the day. Both are nice results! Edit: I might clone out the purple blob at the bottom right of photo 3, it is a little ...
