I have both Stu but use the tripod more I would say

Only got the Samsung GX20 in May so it's still all very new to me
....and only really know the basics of it and I have loads to learn
I've been looking for a local photography club to join, maybe that'll help.
Before that I was using a Sony Cybershot ~ which I still use and get good pictures with lol....BIG difference in price though lol
