Micro Four Thirds ( mirrorless ).
So it can be tiny or ginormous ( I used both lenses tonight ).
The 1.4 Prime for the landscape and sunset shots.
The 100-300 ( 600 mm equivalent ) for the long shots and macro from a distance ( lilies )
same shot with the long lens
even a wild turkey playing peek-a-boo..at 100 metres
24 degrees and glorious....great time for a nightride as well - 3/4 moon.
and macro shots at 5 meters.
14 mm Prime pancake lens
is realllllly small.
these were all shot with that lens - if you zoom in you'll see the detail.

this plane is the Enola gay
detail from the hull
I really enjoy the Gx1
These are pics I shot with it
pocketable, superb pics
but then can play transformer.
The Gx1 with 100-300 lens has a longer reach than the full sized Canon on the left.
I carry both lenses, camera and lens in one shirt pocket - the other lens in the other shirt pocket. Not something you can do with a DLSR. 5 sec to switch lenses.
That lens on the left on the Canon is $6,000 - on the right the Lumix is $599 and will reach longer and do most of what the Canon will do ( Canon gathers more light ).
The guy with the micro four thirds is a pro and was astonished...
The is a cool package a couple of my friends have score with the wide angle 1.4 prime lens and the stock 14-45 zoom and the Gx1 body for $550 or so.

NP - I was using TZ point and shoot compacts on the mcycle but got tired of missing shots due to slow auto-focus etc.
Needed something I could shirt pocket and easy to use but then could handle a big lens for birding.
As a result of the size the camera is almost always with me.
I could not stabilize the camera so that moon was a handheld...just on the edge of the ability of the camera to compensate.
I'm in the market for a small tripod - I would have used it tonight.

But here is the new monster....
Panasonic takes the long view with the Lumix FZ70 | TechHive
That's a lot of kit for $400
Considering that's less than a lesser reach lens on a MFT and weighs about the same it's an interesting spin on a two camera system.
and if you want more....

The picture of the Shuttle is so majestic...
..And I got to see the Enola Gay through modern photo lenses.
Thank you!
