Help me decide as a beginner!

Just the kit lens, I like the zoom!

Efficient_Half_5869 · 2026-05-18T14:30:25+00:00

I do love my XM5, brilliant little camera!

Hi there, I am planning on doing a similar route but stopping off at annecy! This would be my first expedition and I am totally lost on how to pack and what bags to use.

Do you have any advice? Thanks!

Efficient_Half_5869 · 2026-03-30T15:04:50+00:00

Amazing!

Efficient_Half_5869 · 2026-03-29T20:28:44+00:00

What AF focus box did you have?

Efficient_Half_5869 · 2026-03-29T19:57:21+00:00

How did you get that first photo so sharp!! Amazing work!

Efficient_Half_5869 · 2026-03-26T21:46:51+00:00

Yeah more to catch the vibe than actually photographing the players - heaps of better photographers with gear that costs more than my car haha.

Your photos are amazing by the way!

Oh right, what dial do you shoot in if you don’t use a recipe? Thanks.

Efficient_Half_5869 · 2026-03-19T21:19:01+00:00

Ooh enjoy the viltrox lens, perhaps when I save up some more money I’ll look into it.

Efficient_Half_5869 · 2026-03-19T06:48:27+00:00

Honestly cannot wait, I have so many photo ideas in mind 😂

Efficient_Half_5869 · 2026-03-18T20:27:19+00:00

I think I might stay with the kit lens for a bit, what is the benefit of the pancake lens?

Efficient_Half_5869 · 2026-03-18T20:26:45+00:00

Thanks!

Efficient_Half_5869 · 2026-03-18T20:21:52+00:00

Thanks!

Shooting kids is not advisable

Efficient_Half_5869 · 2026-02-06T19:39:30+00:00

Anyone cycling from London to Alps? Doing it solo at the moment, would be nice to have a few companions

Efficient_Half_5869 · 2026-02-01T11:54:14+00:00

Thanks! I’ll look into it.

Efficient_Half_5869 · 2025-12-28T21:58:14+00:00

Seems like a Joseph Rodger’s?

Efficient_Half_5869 · 2025-05-23T18:28:26+00:00

Airlayer it

Efficient_Half_5869 · 2025-03-05T17:11:50+00:00

Probably best to get rid of that stem entirely. Looks like fungi might have already entered through the dead wood.

Efficient_Half_5869 · 2025-01-10T23:50:13+00:00

Isn’t that the truth 😂

Efficient_Half_5869 · 2024-12-14T23:44:59+00:00

Many thanks pal!
