I have a 49mm filter in between the ring and the reduce to provide dust protection also. All bits cost me about £5. Attachment: D300-1-7023.jpg (Downloaded 36 times)

I have to say, I think I would be very uncomfortable taking a photo of someone in their own home on the sly. Were you paparazzi in a former life?

The V1 Nikon is very good too. My wife Wendy took this last week at Chatsworth house in Derbyshire. Available light hand held 1/60sec f3.5 1600ISO 10mm with the 10-30mm lens. It was a JPG file but detail is good and highlights held and colour not bad for auto setting. Perhaps we should have posted some of Wendy's shots in our USA trip she like me was very happy with her results. Attachment: Wen1157.jpg (Downloaded 26 times)

This is also at Chatsworth and is part of picture only to show detail. 10-30mm lens in bright conditions, some loss of highlight detail on back of head, perhaps would have retained more with NEF rather that JPG? Attachment: Wen1170.jpg (Downloaded 26 times)

Thanks for the information Graham. The photos from the V1 look very good. May I ask if you purchased any other lenses beside the 10-30mm and how they fair?

Yes Wendy also has the 30-110 lens and results from that are also very sharp.

I see Nikon has the V1 bundled with the 10-30mm and the 30-110mm. That would make for a very attractive kit. Always good to get the perspective of a user of the equipment.

If you look at the Histogram box in bottom left this is empty if the lens cap is on as there is no light impacting on the sensor!.. Simple. 2. This wont work for those who MF. If you press the shutter release to focus you get the Red box of failure. No AF!! No light so image, no AF. So simple  Hope these help reduce the black shot syndrome.

Ed Constable did some ISO tests for me with his V1. We concluded that ISO800 was about the cut off limit. In bright conditions you would need to look hard at the images to discern which camera took which image if you were comparing with a DX camera. Image quality is considerably better than a point'n'shoot compact.
