Ricoh GXR A12 50 & 28 Image Thread

U could also look at Sony a series dslrs as well.. But since u are happy w/ the original Minolta version.. It is more of an FYI. Since Sony acquired Minolta, their A series dslr is really the Minolta mount (if I remember correctly). Used Sony dslr should be pretty cheap as well.

The only Sonys I can afford I do not like. I played with Sony Alpha mounts a lot at the camera stores in Japan. The only ones I like were the A900/A850/700 and a99/a77. The others left a lot to be desire, so a Minolta 7D is it!

It has been two weeks since I picked this camera up. Took these late last week.

It snowed again yesterday. It is the never ending winter this year in Canada. ENOUGH!

Tis not the land of everlasting winter ? 😛

It is no longer winter! Spring has arrived!

It has been a while since I posted anything in this thread. Photos taken this morning.

They might be the last. I am contemplating selling my GXR kit. My photographic vision has changed since I have moved back to Canada. A dSLR may be in order!

Mike, hope you don't leave GXR world for DSLR world. Already Johan has pretty much left rff for DSLR world. These GXR threads would be little emptier without you.

Maiku,

I'm curious about what DSLR you'd move to and why. A full-frame? (If not, what's the attraction?)

Anyway, like RHL-Oregon, I'd miss your stuff.

I would buy a Sony A850. I want the full-frame digital experience. I was lucky earlier this year buying a Minolta 50/1.7, 28-85/f3.5-4.5 and 70-210/f4 lens for a miserly sum. However, I do not know yet! I just know that I want a different digital experience. The GXR may stay after using it exclusively the last week. More photos to come later this evening.
