  1. Hi Cris! Do you find the narrow depth of field of the GXR problematic after working so much with small sensor cameras?

  2. Mark, you can't believe how often I struggle with the shallow DOF of the large sensor in the GXR.
    In low light especially the larger sensor and subsequent shallow DOF wide open create a lot of problems for street photography but even in good light and using f5.6-f8, I never feel like I have enough DOF.

    So for me shallow DOF of large sensors is a big disadvantage in most cases and kind of makes fast lenses pretty pointless.

    The only time I like shallow DOF is for macro shots like this but then even small sensors can do it.
