Spring

A soft image, unfortunately. F 2.8 coupled with a slow shutter speed of 1/15 cannot be hand-held to perfection... at least in my hands.

You seem to have fallen for the GX 2.8 ..... what is here that is not in the 6008? I Have a 2.8F that should be about the same and a 6008..... why? Logan

Hey Logan, no..... they're both superb cameras.... The GX 2.8 is however a lot more practical: Almost no weight, sharp twin lenses, very mechanical and very simple in its construction, almost basic...which I love. The 6008 on the other hand will be my studio favourite, but it's massive, bulky, and when I carry it in its case with three more lenses and the tripod, I really need to drive around to reach the location. You can simply forget about walking around and / or strolling.... which is a pleasure if you have a GX.... But I adore them equally. I simply adore Rolleiflex.
