Glad to have you struggling along with meAlright, it’s the 21mm for me Matt. Definitely. Can’t not do that after @addieleman ’s post, it really will be a challenge
Sure thing - and yes, it does that, doesn't it.Matt, can you add me in please.
I will using a Canon G7x Mk2 (I think)
Sorry for being so late deciding, life got in the way.
I think I'm going change my mind and go with the X70 for the challenge......I still need data from @davidzvi as to what he's going to use; I'm also not sure what lenses @ajramirez (he'll post late, I'm fine with that), @AndyMcD and @Bobby Tingle have chosen (though I think the latter two will both use the Fujifilm 35mm f/1.4); @drd1135 and @Matero just need to comfirm their picks.
Less than eight hours to go until it's gone midnight downunder and things can run their course.
List updated.

Fanastic to have you on board, and the choice is entirely adequate!@MoonMind Matt, I’m going to change my mind at the last minute and use the RX100m3. It’ll be a good way to get to know what the camera can do.
Absolutely! I just realised that all premium fixed-lens 28mm-e cameras are present. In general, Fujifilm reigns supreme, but I'm quite surprised that Leica is about as well represented as Sony (and more so than Canon or Nikon). As for the lens choices, I really love it this time around - we'll see a load of original approaches simply because of such dedicated choices.Interesting list of gear for this challenge.
One of the reasons I decided to go with it (it's also easier to carry every day )........Absolutely! I just realised that all premium fixed-lens 28mm-e cameras are present. .....
Sorry, may be my fault - it's quite hard to keep track of everything.I’ll confirm my pick. I didn’t realize I hadn’t.
@ajramirez @drd1135 @Matero You still have time (some of you quite a lot - that's specifically true for our American friends) to indicate your final choices.

Sticking with your gear (if feasible) is kind of part of the challenge, but I acknowledge it's not enforced ...
Great, thanks - that's fantastic, I'm quite interested in that lens myself (though I'm not enough of a super-wide guy to justify buying it, probably - but maybe another Si* can change that).The 14-30mm 4.0 S happened to be on the Z6 when I picked it up tonight, so that will be my kit for the month.
Cheers,
Antonio
There's no reason to *restrict* yourself to your chosen gear - just do the challenge with it. I always(!) shoot multiple cameras alongside each other.It's harder than I thought, temptation is a b***h!
That's what I thought, as long as I'm motivated to create, I don't need the gear limitation as a guidance. I brought the 24 2.8 pancake with the 40D today and so far I've had some keepers. Really can't say enough how rewarding it feels after seeing the 40D files. I miss the EVF though.There's no reason to *restrict* yourself to your chosen gear - just do the challenge with it. I always(!) shoot multiple cameras alongside each other.
That said, why *not* use the 40D? I think it's a fun choice!
