Hi Folks, and Merry Xmas and New Year to ya all, BTW!! Does anyone know of any sample images shot with a Diglux II posted on the net anywhere? BTW There's a useful Leica digital forum here: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/DLUGers/ All the best, Duncan

Got mine today. No problems at all, they all look just fine. Cheers, Duncan

Lars, try here: http://www.camerans.com/resources.htm Bests, Duncan

Just ordered a few myself. Should get them Monday/Tuesday. I'll let everyone know how they came out. Bests, Duncan

Yep, question is how long you want to wait. Let's say they announce something new in, say, 3 months. It'll still take around 6 more months before they hit the shelves and then you better have pre-ordered to get one straight away...soooo, can you wait 9 months to get your new camera?:-) MVH Duncan

How are DVDs supposed to cope with long term storage? I was under the impression they were pretty good though I still use CDs so far.. mvh Duncan

Kenta, I think you'll find the Fuji S2 will do you just fine. The diffrence between it and a D100 if marginal and mostly a matter of taste. The images produced by both are very good though slightly different, but which of the images you like best will much depend on you and your personal taste...

Whilst perhaps biassed, I'd go with the Nikon, too. It's a good little camera for the money. Bests, Duncan

Frederik, I'd recommend doing a search of the archives as this horse has been beaten to death here a few times and there's loads of info at hand already. Bests, Duncan PS Check www.dpreview.com also.

As a non-pro photographer, it still amazes me at how much many of us spend on camera equipment. I recently had my (then) equipment valued for insurance purposes and it lay at over 200 000 SEK! Now I've sold off a great amount of it but it's still madness really. What I do try to do, however, is...

No thanks required, Daniel. Just fun to help out. Take Care, Duncan

As the other's have written, "system" means that you build a whole range of compatible products (flash, lenses etc....) which can be interchanged to suit your specific needs. There's also a point about digital slrs versus point and shoot digitals....quality of pixels. You'll find a DSLR will...

Daniel, yes that's what I mean. Great if you're a new buyer but not so cool if you just bought the last model a few months ago and need to sell it....:-( MVH Duncan

Well let's see....10 x 30 = 300...this camera should be what, 30 times superior to the 10D?..:-) Boy, Canon's just rolling out those cameras! Personally I'm glad I use Nikon; it's a bit irritating being introduced to a new and better camera every couple of months, even if one's not forced to buy...

Micke, call Nikon Sverige direct on 08 - 594 109 00 and ask to speak to the service department. They'll fix you up. MVH Duncan

If you're going to get a quick release for an Arca Swiss check out www.reallyrightstuff.com first. They make some of the best releases and plates on the market and made for the Arca Swiss ball head range. Cheers, Duncan

Well, it's Nikon's most advanced "real compact" camera. Being as I already had the SB 80 DX flash and goodnes know how many other Nikon accessories, the choice was kind of easy. I've always used Nikon so I'm a little biassed but the 5400 works well in the hands of someone who can use it. Bests...

There's a few interesting night images here: http://www.pbase.com/jagagator/nikon_5400_images Some folks seem to experience problems in low light conditions; I've found it OK so far but I've only had the camera for a few days so the jury is still out. MVH Duncan

Björn, there are pixels and pixels, depending on whether you use a DSLR or a compact camera. The reason to have more pixels is when you are going to print images and enlarge them; the more (quality) pixels the more information you have per square centimetre, the better your images will be in...

Martin, I've just read quite a few comments on Digitalfirst and they all we positive so it looks fine. Why not give them a call? Cheers, Duncan
