[QUOTE="vincechu, post: 38070, member: 355"] Thanks for the ideas everyone. Nic (Luckypenguin) - I just read your thread: [url]https://www.photographerslounge.org/f16/less-less-interested-trying-different-gear-4133/[/url] - and am feeling the same. I'd recommend everyone take a look :-) BB - I do have some of my Pentax lenses up for sale, so I guess sooner or later I'll have the money to pounce :-) however I'm having a lot of thoughts at the moment, mainly that I wasn't 100% convinced that moving back to m4/3 was the right thing for me, so I guess don't really want to sell all my gear just yet incase I regret it. Armando - I did visit the store, however all the PL25mm's were sold out - preordered/reserved and shipped off that very morning so no chance to try unfortunately. I agree with the AF. I was blown away by the new light speed touch screen AF - for candids and street it's absolutely perfect, it pretty much is instant. The only thing is I'm not 100% a fan of the G3 body and still haven't found somewhere with a GH2 in stock to try. So I guess I'm hanging on to my k5 body and 30mm 1.4 for now, the rest will be sold. On a different note, I've been shooting film rangefinder recently and absolutely love how its making me think/anticipate shots more as its 100% manual. So I [I]might[/I] get an M8 instead - there's some very tasty M mount glass and I might be able to keep the K5 + 30mm 1.4 for lowlight [/QUOTE]
