Hanging around the hut this weekend. No clouds this morning, boring clear blue sky. I'll see what tomorrow looks like.

Updated airshow prep snap. Yes, a vest. Geeking out. New more comfortable strap. Updated memory cards (from 32GB V30 to 64GB V90).

Had to go for a safety shot, today. Stems from last Saturday, and have had a rather horrible powerline edited out (somewhat).

Looking at all your LX7 images this month, Jens, reminds me what a great little camera it is. And you are really doing nice work with yours.

Thanks, Miguel.
I am somewhat smitten by it, it is a mighty fine camera, but if I should be entirely rational, it is somewhat dated. Am building a EDC system around the model, though. Must admit I have oogled the LX10/15, but cant really see to shake the feeling that they dumbed that one down somewhat, even if there are solid upgrades in sensor and stabilisation. :drinks:
 
Nothing wrong with a vest. I covet the lens, however.

Yeah, I'm just reacting a bit jokingly to the fact that a lot of people highly dislike vests. I pretty much decided I'd never use one, but... never say never. If that's what I need to use, I will.

Fuji knocked another one out of the park with the 100-400 IMHO. I bought a 70-300, then used it side by side with the 100-400. The 70-300 isn't a bad lens, it's just that my 100-400 is a better performer in all aspects except MFD and sharpness at MFD, where my 70-300 actually does better. And the lack of an IS switch on the lens drives me nuts because I have to menu dive to change IS settings. Even though I wanted to cut weight for the airshow, I just can't not take the 100-400. I guess I've been a little spoiled.

It's like back in my Nikon days with the 70-300VR vs the 70-200/2.8 VR + 1.4TC. The 70-200 just performed at a higher level, but I used the 70-300 when I really needed to cut size and weight.
