      An addition….The macro capabilities of the Powershot far exceed those of the GR...I'll have the GR with me in Japan (as well as the G16 and the D750)....

            Not sure what lenses you plan on bringing to Japan @Giles but could you bring your 28mm?

            I've ordered one but it won't arrive in-time!

                          There's an interesting interview about the Sony A7 R II at:

                          http://www.imaging-resource.com/news/2015/06/16/sony-qa-the-must-have-sensor-tech-of-the-future

                          I'm interested in the camera from a video perspective, and the sensor sounds fantastic for that. They're sampling across fifteen photosites per pixel at 4K, which should give absolutely fantastic images.

                            I ended up selling my Sony A7ii. I wasn't using it since getting another Leica M8. The IQ on the Sony is actually too good. The photos almost look like the went through to much post processing.

                                  Figured you might 😉

                                  Price is far more reasonable than Manfrotto and the quality is comparable.

                                  The tripods hex centre column is a really great feature!

                                      I'll definitely let you know how it compares to your Manfrotto's!

                                        Hey everyone. I know there is a lot of expert photographers in this forum. It's time to welcome another noob into it. I know basic photography terms and practices. But still never tread past auto focus. I have got a Nikon D40x that was gifted to me a while back. This is probably laughable on this forum. But DSLR cameras are very complicated compared to an iPhone. So. I notice a lot of people have the hand clicker to take photos and probably decent tri pods. Any suggestions on where I could pick up some entry level stuff. My roommate just plain isn't interested in taking WAYWT pics for me. So any help is appreciated. Thanks stubborn crew!

                                          Then get something like this:
