Hello from the SF Bay Area!

[samuraishot]

I've got a white GRD 4 on the way and I can't wait to see how this camera will turn out!

I currently use a Nikon D300 and shoot mostly architecture, and thought it was time to get a compact camera and also want to get into street photography. I tried it with the D300, but that sucker gets heavy!

Hi Samerai

Welcome.

I have been thinking about the DRV white version;. it seems a lot cheaper

Would like to hear your thoughts when it arrvies.

Hi and welcome samuraishot, as a long time GRD user they are a worthwhile experience. Give it some time and think of the 28 only as liberating. No more zooming!

Hi thelps! I used a 50mm (75mm on the cropped sensor) for almost 3 years and got so used to it, so I'm hoping I'll adjust quickly to the world through 28mm. :grin:

Woohoo! It's here - too bad I gotta charge the battery first though :cry:

It's okay, it gives me time to read the manual! :mrgreen:

Congratulations on your new arrival
Reading the manual is something I must do, I find I always pick up one snippet of info that I missed.

Welcome from a fellow GRD4 user - any questions just fire away.....it's taken me 6 months to work out my ideal set-up (until I change my mind again).
