Some nice ones there.
I've got the 100-400 mk2, 70-200 F2.8 non is, 17-40 and 24-70 F2.8 mk2.
Would love a 400 F2.8 but haven't got £10k lol.

Anyone here made the switch to M43 from an APSC DSLR?
I think I’m about to pull the plug on a Panasonic G80, for both stills and video. Considered the GH5, but I think the money is best spent on glass, rather than the comparatively smaller extra benefits (4K/60fps over 4K/30fps) I’d get from the GH5.
So yeah, G80 and the Panasonic 12-35 F/2.8 (which looks awesome) is what I’m 99% going for, but I thought I’d check if anyone here has done similar?

Ok I know I only just asked about who people use for printable but now I'm curious who people have used for albums?
It'll be for my wedding photos and for the £400+ our photographer wants to charge I'm sure we can get it done elsewhere for less but still be very high quality.

I've had a few books from these.
www.saal-digital.co.uk
They do wedding style albums. High end wedding albums aren't cheap though. I assume the £400 was with the photos in? You are probably looking close to £150-200 for an empty album, the photographer will be making on the printing.
I know a lot of people use Loxley too.

My Wifes a wedding photographer and depending how good the album is £400 inst that much.
She charges around the same i believe but her costs would be around the 250 mark for a hand made leather album with so many pictures. Then her time designing the albums, postage, emails too and from etc.
To ask the question, how much better is the 5DS-R over the 5D mkIII?
I've seen Open Box (New) 5DS R for sale at £1499, which seems a bargain compared to the other New prices:
but that's still £500-odd more than a 5DIII in top-notch condition.
Potential usage would be weddings and social events, and some landscape stuff when on holiday, if that makes a difference.
I asked in the shop about how the R compares to the 5D Mk4 but the chap basically read the specs off the internet which was not super-useful, and then suggested the EOS R could be an option - but both the EOS and the Mk4 are a shitload of money!

Think I might sell my DSLR, Taken it with me on my last few holidays and barely used it, Think the bulk and faff of lenses etc just make it inconvenient in most cases.
Anyone know what a Nikon D60 with 18-55mm and a 55-200mm lenses, Nikon Carry bag with a few other filters and bits might be worth?

That should list prices for each part being sold new and secondhand, so you could work some pricing round that.

The camerapricebuster link above also has links to secondhand stuff (although I think a lot might be eBay links).
Cameraworld does do secondhand stuff.

Did you do the switch in the end Luke?

Did indeed mate, not looked back! It’s an awesome bit of kit.

@Simon_16v with the g80 I picked up the pani 12-35 f/2.8 (super sharp!) and an Olympus 60mm f2.8 macro mate. Wouldn’t actually mind trying a super fast prime pancake lens too, but to be honest the 12-35 is a perfect walkabout lens!
I think it owes me about £950 all in, which seems very reasonable considering what a similar spec’d DSLR would be.

Anyone shoot on vintage glass?
Lockdown boredom purchase of a D7100 to replace my dead D60 has occurred [emoji23]
Got a 35mm prime, the kit lens plus a vintage sigma 28mm and a Helios 44-2 that I found on an old Zenit in the garage
Not too hothered about manual focus etc, On the hunt for a wide angle and a tele lens now
Oh and on the hunt for a decent bag that can fit all my stuff plus my Mavic pro in, Lowepro is nice but pricey, any cheapy no brand ones that can be recommended?

I'd pay for a decent bag tbh.
I've got a cheap one of Amazon and although it fits my 150-500 lens in, it's not rigid enough, the seperator parts are flimsy, basically it's only good for carrying the camera and lens attached and a few other bits in the front compartment. I have a small pouch which my 24-105 lens goes in to protect that.
It wasn't cheap either for a "cheap" bag, think it was £60 odd.
When I don't take the long lens, I use my Lowepro.
https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B01M27S30V/?tag=cliospnet01-21
Was eyeing up that, have lowepro bags already and they are great but the one for drone and dslr is like an extra 120 quid on top of that one
Probably will end up just getting a decent one mind you, the Protactic 350 looks ideal

To be fair, that looks decent.
Wife's got one similar and it's fairly solid.

I’ve got a Lowepro rucksack for sale if anyone is interested. Cracking bags, this is like new. It’s never been out of the house with me as I’ve got another one which I’ve used for 10 years or so.
It’s up for £60 posted.
