| With everyone getting new bodies, I think that separate section for you to proudly display your first image from your new acquisition is in order.
 This applies to brand new bodies, as well as bodies that are simply newly acquired by you.

 First images, straight of the camera JPGs. The shots of Tommy are at 1250 ISO.     Whilst I have a lot to learn regarding functionality, particularly the focus, the camera feels good - it is a great size, metal lens cap gives a sense of quality, the feel of the body is nice. We may have to fight over who gets to carry it around with them.Regards, Patrick

 Patrick, if you shoot in red filter mono you can get a bit more contrast in the images....if you like that is. I noticed for me personally the straight mono in the xe1 is quite flat. EM1 l 7.5 l 12-40  l  14 l 17 l 25 l  45 l 60 l 75 l AW1 l V3

 I found the mono filters after I took these shots. I do like the 360' pano feature. Pretty cool.Regards, Patrick

 It is a balance bike. The boys love it. I have read that it teaches them to ride a Ike better than training wheels as learning to balance is harder than learning to pedal. So I have read.Regards, Patrick

 What's illogical about that? Surely the name would have been coined by some marketing genius, and thereby the logic path terminates rather abruptly.g.Gary Stark
