I dont get that lucky, but I treated myself to an older model, the G1, I dont want video or touch screens so stayed away from the G2.
I also grabbed a 45-200 while I was at it and have sold my telescopes so may go for the 45mm macro to finish the kit off
I'm very much a rookie photographer. My lovely hubby bought me a Lumix FZ38, (he thinks I'm better than I am,,,) am beginning to get to grips with it,,,but to be honest it frightens the life out of me!
LOL
This is my very first contribution to ePHOTOzine and thought it would be a gentle, easy way in! I am so glad I found ePHOTOzine, (actually via Mike's site at http://www.photographycourses.biz/) - what a mine of information and what incredibly tallented people you all are.
I bought a DMC-GH2 in December 2010 and as it's my first 'propper' DSLR. I have owned a few film SRL's before, but thought I ould venture into the digital age. I am still slightly daunted by the camera and every now and again find new things that it does. I think I must have read the manual (which is not great) a hundred times: I know, not usually a blokey thing. I brought a few of my pictures in to work recently to show someone here, (who is a far more experienced photographer than I), as there is something that has been concerning me a little with the pictures that the camera produces. My images appear not be the sharpest. Even when used on a tripod and focussed on a simple, well lit target, on a low ISO setting, the images that I get appear to be less than perfectly sharp when I view them through Aperture. I have not tried printing any. My colleague has looked at them and said that they look fine and I should stop worrying and stop zooming in too far, but I just can't help thinking that they could be sharper.
Has anyone else experienced this or is it just me!

An fz45 gave my fz7 to my granddaughter ,this one has twice the pixels and twice the zoom plus it shoots in raw you get a lot for the money and its a great back up to the dslr even though its a bit fiddly if you have largish hands.High ISO is noisy but not a problem as its a bit better than the Fz7.All in all very pleased and cause its an older model got a good price, less than the price of, more or less, all the lenses for the canon.
