new guy here. I have taken to snapping photos of bugs on the farm where i work. I'd love to try some macro flower pics too. iPhone doesn't really cut it though.
Is this Olympus Tough TG-4 worth a couple hundred? Beautiful pics fellas thanks

God bless nikon for at least making the dials usable, even if a drive mode switch should have been under the shutter dial instead of a fucking jpeg setting (every product to have jpeg settings on physical switches has failed)

They make the x-t5 feel like an awkward plastic toy

>I'm not a gearfag because I was being vain instead of autistic
Ironically you are the gearfag. Gearfags are not about using cameras. Gearfags are never about anything personal. Experience, fun, these things don't factor into a gearfags decision, because they can't be evaluated publicly. They are about vanity. Telling other people they have the camera. Telling other people about the video codec they don't need let alone use. Telling other people about how theirs shoots faster or has more megapixels even though they've never been paid, laid, or asked for a print (let alone one larger than 16x20). In your case you are about a spec too. Fashion. You bought your camera so other people could see it. You might think that making it about the way it looks makes you less of a nerd but let's be real, it's steampunk fashion, you're still a fucking nerd.

A non-gearfag buys a camera because they like using it and nothing more.

It's the kind of photography that clients like

No, its' over-processed. The pose is very awkward and the way she is dressed doesn't compliment the colors and vibes of the environment, producing an uncanny atmosphere. She is dressed for a fully colorful day downtown, at a bar or the beach. But instead she it's overcast and colorless. Discord.

m43 is just garbage. not because of the noise, but because it's aps-c ff sized for the same price for lower quality and less creative options. You need to spend big nikon S line prime money to get a manual focus f1.8 "equivalent" and it sucks all the character out of vintage lenses by only using the sharp-ish center, but worse than it would look on a real camera. It's just crap in every way unless you're an encyclopedia ID photo shooter with arthritis.

If you're considering an m43 just get a fujifilm instead. The autofocus is somehow still 2x better than om-shit/panasoi and it's not even good autofocus.

>>4341724
Keep using your phone and complement it with a film camera like a Nikon F80, a few primes and a tripod.
If you want to into birds and wildlife try a D500 and the 200-500mm, or a MFT combo like the OM-1 and 40-150 f/2.8. FF birding is expensive and annoying to haul around, unless you know you're into it I would not bother until you use a cheaper lighter set.

!! Way better!

>>4341603
Thanks! I'm going to try again this year, and hopefully get more shots like this that I can stack together. I'll try that lens cap trick as well. I also wanted to try to make a barn door tracker, though I don't know how well that would work for stacking, since the apparent radiant of the meteor would change. That would have to have no foreground if I tried that, which is fine because I don't know if I like it as much as I thought I would.

>>4342011
Hm... I wonder if stacking would erase the meteor streaks as anomalies.

Thanks, but I haven't caught it yet (see above).

It was a modified Nikon Nikkor AI-S 50-300mm f4.5 ED if became a parfocal t/4.6 after being modified and it is still available to buy on eBay if you want one of them for run and gun video shooting or whip zoom shots.

A7SIII - better AF, worse colors, better low light, slightly better DR, no crops (big)
S5IIX - better menus, cheaper, better codecs, SSD recording (money saver), better colors

If you know how to grade and can afford the A7SIII get that.
if you cannot really afford it and you're stretching get the S5IIX.

>>4341959
>better low light
just look up any video comparison and you'll see this is false
>better DR
according to CineD the S5II is slightly better in that regard
the a7sIII only has an advantage if someone wanted to record at high frame rates without crop, up to UHD because it doesn't record DCI 4K
everything else, the S5IIx is a better camera at a significantly lower price point
the S5IIx also has active cooling, a waveform monitor and false colors

How did they have time to fart around on the moon then? Surely it must take an awful lot of time to take all those photos. It is not like they had 40fps electronic 14bit raw snapshitter cameras. This sound awfully a lot like how the Germans cremated 6 gorrilion.

>>4341847
They shot the entire program and trip, not just moonwalks, including some automated cameras on the space craft. It’s not hard to rack up those numbers across multiple missions, especially when a lot of shots are bracketed.
