Two things:

1. What settings would you alter in order to get the best performance? Actual numbers on specific settings would be very helpful, I'm curious to know what you did to have the best performance possible.

2. What benefits did you find in changing the lens? What issues did you experience that made you look into changing the lens?


To anyone else who ran the Pixy this past year or have other experience, please feel free to chime in on your answers too.
