>does anyone here like the process of photography more than actually taking pics?

I must admit, I only care about photography in the sense of film (or other analog methods) and have zero interest in digital. I really enjoy playing with changed in the development, various film stock or developers and how they interact. I also enjoy dry and wet plate photography and making my own plates and so forth. I recently got an enlarger to get into attempting prints. I do all of this with zero skill at taking "good" pics, I mostly just take pics of my wife and kids and random shit on my farm and play with the process. Is anyone else like this?

He is so obsessed with me, not OP, he schizo spergs out whenever he gets even a whiff of someone that could possibly be me. Dude is obsessed and rent free beyond belief.

I feel really sorry for him because I know I'm a much better photographer than him, and that's why he hates me.

Mirrorless camera sensors bounce around in the housing unless they're on in which case the IBIS keeps them in check. I know this is normal, but what if I have to travel a very bumpy path to get to the location of a shoot? And I mean by skiing/hiking there. I'm sure it's fine but it's quite off putting.

Apparently there was a study done by NASA or something to find out which material was the best for transporting delicate camera gear and they came to the conclusion that standard bubble wrap provided the most shock absorption.

After 4-5 years and only 7000 actuations the shutter on my A6000 has managed to die on me. Not sure what do now, is it even worth a repair or should I just buy a new body? I already mostly use vintage Nikkor lenses so maybe a system change wouldn't be bad, I don't know.
>>
>>4295953
Could be worth just getting something newer. 6300 and up gets you a better EVF, good for focussing manual lenses. 6400 and up gets you a touch screen, good for choosing an AF point although that doesn't matter much for you. 6500 and up gets you IBIS which is a really good thing to have. 6400 and newer (so not the 6500) gets you a bit better menu system. 6600 gets you better battery life and a better grip and an extra customisable button.

I have a Lumix G95, had a Canon DSLR in the past though.
I remember being able to set a narrow AF point with the touchscreen on the Canon. This Panasonic lets me choose a 3x3 grid out of a 7x7 (49 points), I keep trying to focus on things and the 3x3 grid is too big
How do I select just one rectangle? Is that even possible?

Do you mean cinema lenses from Cooke or Arri that cost more than a new car? I’d rather just rent that glass.
>>
>>4287194
Can’t you use a Meike or a Sigma and throw pantyhose or a diffusion filter such as the Hollywood blackmagic or pro mist or black pro mist on the lens and get the character of top tier glass. Why would you need to buy a lens with character when you can just throw a diffusion filter on a super clinical lens to get the same effect. You are right you can’t add realistic character in post but you don’t need to do that. Throwing some type of diffusion filter or streak filter or a combo of different filters will get you any character you want.

I want to do timelapses of mushrooms growing indoors with my E-M1, as well as some photography with a trinocular microscope.

Am I totally wrong in thinking my E-M1 Mark III and 60mm macro lens would be all I need for this? I'm a total amatuer, so not sure if I need a totally different bit of kit for this sorta stuff. I only own the 60mm macro and E-M5 right now, so was gonna upgrade to the E-M1 Mark III mostly for this purpose (it can be powered over microUSB, making time lapses feasible).

>>4293452
I did not know this. Be thankful you were born with a decent IQ, it must be nice to have an operational efficiency greater than a tortoises. So I just buy one of these for my E-M5 MK II and I could've been doing time lapses this whole time?
>>
>>4293453
that and a intervalometer and a big enough memory card is all you need
>>
>>4293451
All nicer gear would do is improve image quality. You can even do this on a film camera with an intervalometer. You can power any camera through the battery port btw

>>4293451
>Am I totally wrong in thinking my E-M1 Mark III and 60mm macro lens would be all I need for this
Maybe? How much magnification do you want on your mycelium?
>trinocular microscope
A real light microscope like that is going to get you waaaaay more magnification. Award winning macro is typically done with a microscope objective adapted to a camera. With this kind of setup focus stacking is usually required, but it'd get you a lot closer.

So weird, I made this thread last fall and got wildly different answers, no mention of a dummy battery or intervalometer. Appreciate the feedback. Any run of the mill intervalometer will work with the E-M5 MK II?

(decided to wait last time since I decided I wanted a dedicated space for photoshoots, rather than risking setting up my camera in the fruiting room - a humid room with sticky spores flying everywhere).

>>4293461
To clarify, I was going to use the 60mm macro for capturing the growth of fruiting bodies over time, as well as macro-level growth of mycelium on agar. I was going to use the trinocular microscope + E-M1 to capture hyphae and stuff like that (beyond what is typically called 'macro'). Pic rel is one of the style of scopes I want to get.

The EOS 600 in my photo actually isn't that far off with the dark grey. That teal logo is a perfect match for the ring and distance markings on the lens though.

If you're not bullshitting that's a hell of a deal. There's a few of them on Ebay and most are way overpriced for what they are. There is a really cool "rare" light grey one on there, not the exact same model though. There's also a cheap AF model from Japan, but it's Nikon screw drive.

The stitching feature is really cool and I'd love something like that I can use when needed

But I'm not going to buy a 400 USD gimmick to do that, I'm going to wait a couple years until this software is integrated natively in cameras, I recommend you do the same and do it "manually" (even photoshop cs6 does it automatically), you'll be fine.

Still pretty cool, inconvenients far outweigh the benefits though.

A computer will always get more accurate results with more control than sooc. Aooc features are largely ignored for a reason. Artists dont want to use them.
