Joined the big boys club today.This thing feels like fucking wall-hacking the AF is just ridiculous it will see shit in the middle of pitch black dark and lock on to it with 30 year old AF-D lenses. I also grabbed a 70-200/2.8 VR II for cheap.Talk Nikon stuff, share Nikon images, ask Nikon questions here.
>>4386771Youre talking to someone who prides himself on needing gambling to afford the worst medium format camera
>>4386746don't care. I like the RF style body and also I can shitpost here. I'm more than happy with 20mpx why the fuck would I want to clutter my NAS with 100mpx files lol?enjoy your time ... the macro four thirds posting will start soon
>>4386780>he gambled on pump and dump scams so he could have more "epic" exifWell, enjoy micro four thirds users mocking 1: your sensors inability to outperform a d850 in the real world 2: your god awful photography that seems to actually be getting worse. You have become what you once baited, and lost to, only this little gear slapfight isnt one you can win.
I just upgraded from a D810 to a D850 and bros...worth every penny. Absolutely amazing camera, the fact I can turn it into a pseudo-D500 by shooting in DX crop is really neat. However, my old pirated Lightroom copy doesn't support D850 NEF files. Is it possible to pirate a newer version or should I finally bend the knee to Adobe?
>>4386441I meant the body/lens mount. Thanks for the info, I'll get some screwdrivers ordered while I wait for a new mount to come from chinkland.
>Yes, I have thousands of dollars worth of electronics in my backpack, how could you tell? Yes, I am low test and likely unable to defend myself. How do you carry your gear? I don't use a dedicated camera backpack since I don't want to be a walking red flag.
>>4386847>i go SUPER far into trails with my gearWow, you're AWESOME!
I don't need a dedicated bag for large lenses, I just put this large bubble wrap in the bottom of my backpack and bundle my camera and meter and filters in one or two of those ruggard velcro wrap squares, works great
>>4386673Mil surplus backpack. Also lots of ratty looking but good military shoulder bags available. I use a gas mask bag when it's enough.
>>4386860This also works if you're from any nip nong country with an obscure language, start angrily swearing in that and the roaches scatter. The bigger problem with Americans is they will not believe anything you try to tell them about gyppos. You do not associate with gyppos. Not for any reason. But they won't listen and get rolled every time.
>>4386673As other anons have mentioned, milsurp bags are pretty good. Some companies make padded camera bag inserts you can throw inside a regular backpack so your gear isn't just clunking around. There's also a lot of lower-profile camera bags/backpacks out there if you do some looking.

>>4386895Switch to sony but get the viltrox lab 135mm f1.8 instead
>>4386912why that lens? I'm using it for portraits so I thought being f1.4 would be better
>>4386913A 135 f1.8 has a larger aperture than an 85mm f1.4. Its also just a better lens. The 85mm GM sucks. They need a version 2 badly.

These are cool. Digicams like this are in. Why not use it?
>>4386901I wasn't sure if it was any good because of it's age. I don't have any issues using it but I didn't want to rely on it if it isn't any good.

>doesnt use thing>should i buy a better thing
>>4386893Unfortunately this one isnt "cool" so forget the flip value. Its like $30. Just use it. Outdoors only. Use manual since these shitters ways have a narrow range of good looking apertures and ISOs. It can be hacked to shoot rawhttps://chdk.fandom.com/wiki/S5ISAny raw processor will create jpegs with better NR, sharpening, and demosaicing than the camera body. The jpegs are merely retro cool for gen Y furfags who have nostalgia for awful digishits.
>Petapixel: One of the Best Lenses Ever Made>Canoncels on suicide watchSonychads just keeps on winning
>>4386518Yeah, at this rate sony is definitely going to take canon’s last major contract (getty) before the year is over. Lenses matter more than anything and anyone bad enough to need FPS just writes off an a1/a9. Hobbyists bitch because sony’s older cheaper stuff isnt very good so they’re a $2500 minimum brand but in US tax code its not a big deal for businesses.

>>4379687Unless you compare digital and optical zoom new flagship phones significantly outperform 1” point and shoots. You just need to be savvy enough to shoot with a non-smearing camera app.
>>4386878You wrote quite an essay just to be wrong, lol. Phones use the computational crutch to cope but they still get turbomogged by Saturday Night Special APS-C cameras with kit lenses both in dynamic range and resolution every time they astroturf how great they are with comparisons that only look good to the untrained eye that can't tell real quality from amplified contrast and sharpening. Enjoy your AI smears I guess. At the end of the day the phone has less photons reaching its sensor and a massive amount of gain applied because of this very reason. They use computational photography to blend several exposures into one because the SNR is so bad at short ones.
>>4386894Phone to aps-c is a few crop factor steps too many even for equivalence beatingWe’re talking 1” sensors which are only a step or two from the better phones. Computational cope is literally additional photon gathering in multi exposure devices, and finer color sampling when the gfx BTFOs fool frame despite aperture whiners like yourself. Oversampling alone is enough to pull equality with 1”. Most PNS cams arent even 1”.[EXIF data available.

>>4386896Sensor size matters less than aperture size. You could do bursts and blend in post with those cameras too, what the phone offers is just convenience with passable results for viewing on small screens.
>>4386898Sensor size and aperture size are tossups depending on sensor technology and typical shooting conditions. It matters very, very little if you’re within one stop or have a res gap like gfx100s vs typical ff or a huge tech gap like phones vs 1” slop. High res quad bayer alone fucks your crop coper theory wank.
