Lovely shots again Alby.

Don't know about landscapes, I'm trying my hand with the birds...

Little success at the moment I'm afraid.

Not bad at all Alby. Far better than any of my BIF attempts.

I've just posted my first ones, now let's watch them sink without trace. ;)

excellent detail, presume msn 202 used for these. Wouldn't you prefer a Panasonic with a hot shoe?

Hi Toby, I was looking at the FZ50 but will wait and see what it's replacement is. I bought the FZ8 as a handy walk around camera when out with the family and I didn't want to lug all the gear around with me but, the leica glass is just stunning IMO. I have had a few funny looks when out with the camera and bog roll diffuser attached :lol: I will see how LC10 preforms and if good maybe next year sometime ;)

FZ50 has the hot shoe but looking at macros taken with it I would say your FZ8 has less noise. I think the ideal would be the FZ50 with just 8MP or a larger sensor. Unfortunately to appeal to the mass market theFZ60 will probably go up to 12MP.

#1 has got my vote Alby, but they are all great...what pics do you take in winter when there are no bugs??? Or do you move to Florida LOL!! I know I have felt kind of left out these sites during our winter which has just passed, now at least I can post some pics again and not just comment.
