Heavy XPan

[berci]

Some useless information below:

It's heavy, 1 kg with the 45mm lens.
I use available light always and handheld in the city and it's just great that you can use such speeds like 1/15 or slower handheld.

My XPan is fairly new, and I have not tried such slow speeds until yesterday and when I got the results I was surprised.

That's it. #:-]

That is a great camera. I have had 2 of them. The only drawback I found for street shooting was the slow lens. And if you pile on a centre filter you will be even slower. I think if you stick with the 45 and 90 you will be fine. However the 30 is a tad bit too slow unless you do landscape with a tripod. But the 30 is an incredibky sharp lens.

Heavier is definitely better. And the inherent advantage of no mirror(slap) helps too.
The lenses look slow, but they are that good that they can be used full open with very good results.
