I have way better gear but this little fucker has become a great companion for vlogging, even with all the drawbacksDo you have a favorite flawed piece of gear?
It just feels so good to use
>>4473524What camera and how is it? I've been wanting a camera I can just put in my shirt pocket and use for walking videos.

anyone else lost the will or enjoyment to take photos? i dont know how to get it back and even all my fave youtubers are saying similar things. that makes me worry that its over : (
>>4503681Sounds more like you lack discipline for shooting and basic file organizationWhere can we see some of your photos?
>>4503819>simply ask about names of photographersI know too many, i tried to give you a better plan rather than indulge in your namefagging behavior which won't make you progress>huge paragraphsLearn to read nigger, i have nothing else to say to your dumb ass
>>4503796I'm retarded and keep fucking up loading it or rather, I did once and now I get paranoid every time I load it. Also I have the viewfinder model (I've stuck a cold shoe rangefinder to it) and it's just kinda slow and finnicky to operate, plus the shutter speed dial is stiff. I didn't pay much thank god but it's possibly my most frustrating camera to use. I actually took it out this weekend, just couldn't enjoy it, never felt confident that I knew I was getting what I was shooting.It's mostly my skill issue but I think I just prefer SLRs and would rather carry the extra weight.
>>4503832>I know too manyAll you had to do was list some, you wanted to turn into something else lolI know plenty too, and I bet I've been doing photography a lot longer than you have, I just wanted see who you would recommend
I take them as I please
/p/, I long for the 2000s. I miss the hangouts where someone always had a digital camera and was snapping away. I miss that sweet overexposed, sharpened, sometimes saturated look that naturally came from a digicam. Please post candid photos from the 2000s like picrel. The more unique the better.If you need help, go to Google Images and search (month) (year) and the word "flickr"ex - June 2005 flickr
>>4501799I miss the era where soda bottles were not retard shaped.Luckily you can buy normal shaped soda bottles with store brands but coke really screwed their shit up big time.
CS i believe.
>>4506204No sorry that is just plain old video for sure.Have this snap of actual CS.
1/?This is the review of an OM-5 micro 4/3 camera. I am a full frame user, and I bought this camera to have a small, fun, attractive camera to take snapshits around town. I own or have owned a D850, Z5ii, Z6ii, basically every Nikon DXXX DSLR, D500, Z50, etc. This is my first M43 camera and I was not sure what to expect, so I am chronicling my impressions both for myself, and for other photographers who are looking for a small, fun camera. Ergonomics: This camera is outstanding IMO. For me the Nikon FF cameras are in this weird middle spot that is ergonomically uncomfortable for me. They are either too small or too big. The D850 and my D7500 fit my hand fantastically. I will always have a Nikon DSLR because they are so comfortable to hold and use. The OM-5 is smaller to hold than my Z5ii for example, and that gets it out of the uncomfortable middle ground. With the Z5, I’m always between holding it in front with all of my fingers, or just 3 – there isn’t really enough room for all 4, but with 3, it feels a little insecure. With the OM-5, three fingers fit perfectly. There is enough grip on the front and a great thumb rest on the back. The buttons are very well placed on the camera body for operation while shooting. Simply put, this is a very comfortable camera to hold and shoot. For reference, when I am walking around and shooting, I grip the camera the entire time in my right hand, and have a wrist lanyard for safety. This can be fatiguing with a larger DSLR (the D800 in particular had almost no thumb rest and it was agonizing to carry. The D850 is much better, but is just heavy and gets tiring on the wrist after several hours). The D7500 is extremely comfortable in this regard because of its blobmera shape and light weight. The Z series FF cameras are in the middle ground of just “ok”. The OM-5 was very good.TO BE CONTINUED
>>4502704>he did what his headmate saidjust because you dont take your meds doesn’t mean you have to choose to be a schizo, anon
>>4502679Gonna preface my response with the standard M43 hate: Shit cameras, shit lenses, blah blah, not really worth it outside of getting them dirt cheap and basically look like a phone.Anyway, with that formality taken care of, camera looks fine. The 40-150 is soft as fuck on the long end (and not really spectacular on the wide end) but is the cheapest tele you'll get for the system so it's not bad value per se. The pancake is a little fucky because mixing oly/pana bodies and lenses never quite works right, but it's fine. The pancake will be infinitely more useful just because it's not absurdly soft and slow like every M43 zoom.Oh wait,>$1000 USDFuck me sideways that's expensive. Don't do it anon. The body is like $400-500 at most, the tele is worth a whopping $80, and the pancake iirc is around $200. Classic boomer ebay mentality of "I know what I've got".
>>4502729Thank you anon, this is solid advice and I really appreciate it. On the price, this seller accepts offers, so I'm going to send one in for 800 (from summing up your itemized prices) and see what happens. I'm also going to contact them and ask if they will be interested in selling the body separately.
OP, you claim that...>Simply; the IQ is very good.>The lens was very sharpThese photos say otherwise.Instead of using 4000 ISO as an excuse for this, can you upload some properly exposed RAWs at the base ISO?I like the idea of a smaller camera system but it seems like there are some serious issues with the downsizing that shits on IQ. It seems more like a decent video platform than anything viable for stills in my opinion. Maybe decent for macro too. I wish it were better but when the general consensus seems to be "use AI noise reduction" or "just fix it in post" or "it's good enough" it's kind of hard to believe anything else.>>4489319Not that guy, but my guess is M43.Just has an ugly look.>>4489353This also has an ugly look.>>4486842Comment too long.

>>4502679I paid $75 dollars with a pancake and a small zoom in 2023 and that felt about right for it. It's seriously not even as good as my Xiaomi Ultra phone. Do not pay meme money for one. Monitor only shooting is pretty bad too.
Give me the rundown on Magnum, it feels fraudulent because it's a group jerking themselves off as being the best then the false reputation spread and people think it's legitimate, it's like how French New Wave was a complete circlejerking scam

>>45073206D2 + Sigma 24-35mm f2R7 + Sigma 17-40mm f1.8Irix is probably best bet for good but budget f1.4 ultrawides on EF, but MF
>>4506856>I bet you could get baseplate + rails + lens yolk for under $50, just a tad bulkierThanks Anon, good suggestion. I looked into this and found a Neewer 15mm rod rig that was a lot cheaper than the Manfrotto or Leofoto supports, and the handles actually make it a lot easier to direct and position this fat fucker. Only "downside" is it makes my a6000 look even more ridiculously tiny than it already is.Thanks again senpai.
What's actually different about shooting with a modern mirrorless vs an older DSLR? An EOS R7 sure sounds a lot fancier than a 7DII, but I'm trying to decide how much money to spend, and I don't know whether that fanciness is just a meme.
>>4508521With mirrorless you can see what your photo is actually going to look like.in the viewfinder, tweak as needed in real time.Makes easy manual exposure, manual white balance, manual focus.Canon can't show you areas of overexposure before you take the photo, but it can in the auto review which can be set to appear right after the shot, (which is also good for checking focus.)The main advantage optical viewfinders have vs modern EVF is that they use much less battery power.Mirrorless is quieter and shakes less since no mirror flapping around.
Took a picture of what I believe is an Orchard Orbweaver and I'm having trouble editing it cause I'm used to landscape photography.I have a closeup of my edit as picrel and I'm bothered with how noisy it is. I've linked the mega folder with the best pictures and if you could pick one and edit and post it that would be much appreciated.https://mega.nz/folder/6eA13bCD#R0Jr5eT0DvjFz0GXGB-sogGear:Canon EOS 800D/Rebel T7iEF 70-300mm IS USMP.S.If there is an actual name for this type of thread please let me know
>>4505933Anon, you must be trolling.>Nothing in >>4505916 (You) talks about light. It talks about specs.This post didn't talk about specs. It was about equivalent aperture diameter and different sensor sizes resulting in different light intensity after equalization. I specifically even said to ignore more "spec" related things like light transmittance which is often superior on full frame. This is all about light. If you have X amount of light and need to cover Y amount of mm2, when all that light is focused onto a smaller sensor with less area... the light intensity goes up.This greater light intensity hitting the sensor is why full frame loses its advantage in low light if you normalize for DOF at the same FOV.>Either larger formats are better or smartphones are king.LargeR formats give potential for cleaner images, more resolution, and sharper detail with enough light.If shooting conditions mean you're stuck with ISO in the thousands AND you want a deep DOF, sensor size no longer matters as much. If your subject doesn't move and it exists in an environment where lighting conditions aren't rapidly shifting, you are always better off using a larger sensor.Smartphones are never really king but they're more capable than you probably want to admit.Tripod, plus cleaned lens, shutter timer, good lighting, and enough exposure time, and proper RAW capture (no aislop, no ProRAW bs) on a phone will get pretty good images.What smartphones can't do (yet at least) is operate with a flash.Comment too long.

>>4499164I'm from Scandinavia and I was amazed that everything, even down to the grass, was different in Singapore. It was the first country outside Europe I visited.Everything was interesting in a strange way when even something as tiny and normal as grass was different. How can you not just wander around in amazement in a situation like that.
>>4500213We have a bunch of "street photographers" here and elsewhere who see the externally visible act of taking the photo as primary and everything else as derivative. Hence proliferation of photo youtubers, vlogs of aimlessly wandering who cares where, flashing people in the face, endless talks on what you are and are not allowed to photograph depending on your oppression level and so on.
>>4500220Those people exist, but there are also people who are amazed by how different an area is and take photos because they enjoy it and not for some vague reason. It's not always so negative all the fucking time.

Leica have teamed up with Gpixel, a Chinese imaging company, to develop their next-gen camera sensors.>“The partnership focuses on jointly engineering a bespoke image sensor optimized for Leica’s rigorous imaging standards, enabling unprecedented levels of image quality, dynamic range, color fidelity, and low-light performance across future Leica products,” [they say].>Leica promises that the jointly developed image sensor will be purpose-engineered to meet Leica’s very high performance standards, particularly concerning color reproduction, noise performance, dynamic range, and resolution. The companies will also work together to carefully tune and ultimately mass-produce the required image sensors.It's often repeated on /p/ that sensor technology has "plateaued." What will Leica have to do with their next-gen camera to dispel that idea?

>>4506063leica going full mask off aren't they
>>4506789i looked sl3 specs, maybe they go for physically bigger sensor thing
>>4507076Like phase one's iq4 size? or actual 645 or 6x6?Perhaps Leica will announce a new medium format camera first for the new chinese sensor. If they release new S series with crop MF sensor like fuji and hasselblad, they can get fucked and phase one will keep the crown of digital MF.If leica use a reasonable performance's 40mp global shutter FF sensor in M12 and SL4, Q4, they do something sincerely based that anyone hasn't done for a decade.

>>4506388jfc filmtards are so oblivious that they think the world revolves around them. The consumer film industry for big corpa (not talking about boutique film shops) is just a leftover 'bonus' while serving the actual major consumers like motion picture, science research, and radiography. No, they're not going to sell their factories and tech because it's used for other shit like serving bigger industry customers. Your cringeass analog photography is just a bottom of the barrel left overs that they simply maintain due to heritage and to have a department to send their low performing employees so they can get them to quit than firing them
