After the first steps with GXR and A12 here are some pics to see. There is a big "problem" with the AF speed of the 50mm lens and as i am used to a GRD 2, the GXR with A12 seems to work in slow motion ( just because of the AF ). The weather today was just grey and almost without any colours. This helped to show the problem of the AF with getting any point to focus. The little plastic ape was the most difficult object up to now. Switched to macro modus the lens was just running up and down and i had to help it a bit with changing the AF modus and to put the AF point on something with enough contrast. The camera itself is in absolut high quality but maybe it was better to start with a "normal" lens like a 28 or 35 mm with f 2.0 or something like that. The A12 is a great modul in HQ standard, but in my opinion not the right one for street - photography. Let`s see whats next ........
