Hi Boris, I'm afraid that a mirror-less camera would suffice for little of what I shoot using my DSLR these days, I could potentially get by with the new Olympus OM-D E-M1 but the lenses I would need would cost a small fortune :( Cheers, On 15 December 2013 19:28, Boris Liberman

While I sometimes carry quite a bit more gear -- particularly when I can work out of the trunk of my car -- I can get by on almost any job with a body, the DA* 16-50 and the DA* 60-250. Even a spare body doesn't add a lot of weight to the kit. Paul On Dec 15, 2013, at 7:29 AM, Rob Studdert

Seasons Greetings to you too Rob! Glad your life is easing up a bit for more photography. Looking forward to seeing the photos. I’m about to begin the final run of extra work responsibilities, which will give more time to photography as well. Cheers, Christine On Dec 13, 2013, at 4:12 PM,

Hi Team, It's been another tumultuous year for me personally, lots of things to contend with on the life front but all seems to be coming together slowly towards the end of the year. The good thing is that I have been earning money (often too many hours) but also finding time to get out and shoot
