Thanks for the nice comments. Today some pics of my manual SLR Praktica MTL50 with the zebra CZJ Pancolar 1.8/50.
The pics were from vacation in Croatia last summer. Maybe some of the best pics I ever made. I hope you will enjoy the overload.

Wow, they're great Chuck!

Great pics guys!
I agree on the manual-controls + prime thing. I use a nex-7 these days, and on fullframe (i use a d700 for that) I love a dual lens setup with 35/1.4 and 85/1.4. Hard to replicate the look I get from those on a smaller sensor. ach!
This is why I want a FF camera. If all goes to plan I won't have to sell off my 35L so this way I can use a 5D MK II, 85L and 35L.

look into the Fuji x10
think i will give her a test drive & see if she works for me. might also try to start reading up on photography a little more, yeah i say i'm going to every few months, but i have incentive as the sbg world tours are going to show up any day now.

The x100 I would personally not recommend as a first camera (note: I have no experience with it..). But I think the best way now a days to figure how to work with a camera and learn on a camera is a DSLR. I'm not saying the x100 is bad but I don't know if that's a beginners camera. I would personally want to know how Aperture, ISO, shutter speed all correlate with each other before buying that camera. If you don't know what any of those are or how to properly set up a camera with those settings I would definitely look into investing in a moderately beginner DSLR + 50mm prime or 35mm.
Anyways as for me.. I have made two HUGE purchases over the past few days. First, I'm getting a 5D MK II finally! :D!
second, I'm getting a Gitzo 3340L, so I'm super psyched. Unfortunately I got rid of the 35L to get the 5DII, but I was going to have to sell it in the long run since come this fall I have to get a 70-200 to take sports shots for my school. -
Damn, that fucker is big. Looking to move the G12?
-
Possibly, let me speak to Paula. She has the G10 and may want to upgrade to the G12….
I could do either the 10 or the 12. I am sure she wants the 12.

Nice purchase G! Let us know how you like!

Woo hoo! 5D2! by Jacob Skoglund, on Flickr -
Woo hoo! 5D2! by Jacob Skoglund, on FlickrNot to kill your buzz but I hope you didn't pay retail for that. Probably the worse time ever to buy a 5D markii new. The price might drop $300-400 this weekend. Anyways, have fun with the new camera.
