Exposure value might be 12-13 according to

For those EVs the aperture and shutter speed would be f/8 and 1/60s or 1/125s.

if you've decided that you truly want or need something, from that point simply don't have it for like 8 months more and save enough that you can buy something actually great and far as possible from chinesium and deal with no reliability or fomo bullshit ever again, this rule works well for me anyway and applies to all meaningful purchases

And who is he?

I literally don't know how to edit photos in Lightroom and just fuck around with filters and auto settings until it looks kinda cool to me. I would get torn to shreds if i posted my pics on here on even on other photography forums.

No, I'm afraid of crackheads and live in a commie state with a lot of cool old industry but no personal protection or carry permits allowed.

I take photos a lot for memory. I heard something a while back where every time you remember something, there's the chance it keeps getting slightly distorted each time you remember it. Probably not true, but photos capture details I may have forgotten or just not noticed.

>>4396112
This is why most normies switched to phones

It sure seems like phones suck now that you can compare them to the sony a7cr but back when phones took over and it became socially unacceptable to hold a DSLR without a press pass, bringing a camera other than a shitty little canon powershot was an intrusive PITA, and using it took some time and focus and therefore necessarily robbed you of some presence.

The DSLR days were a flat out regression from the film days, when you could pocket highly advanced 35mm cameras and shoot with the resolution and dynamic range of a canon 5d mark 3 anywhere you could wear a jacket or roomy pants.

fe2fucker with good advice, will wonders never cease?

This is what I do. A bag is best for long outings (comfort, batteries, lenses), but it creates friction between you and taking a photo. Just wear the camera where possible.

You don't need the best gear to make an amazing picture.

>>4395845
true, you should tell canon to update their website

>>4395845
The r5mk2 has APS-C dynamic range at every ISO setting, it might as well be a 12 bit camera period. Same bad design with the same forced NR coverup as the r1 and r3. Same tell in image quality: shadow pushes look identical to APS-C.
>inb4 there is no NR because detail!
Good NR doesnt reduce detail at all unless you want to make ISO 800+ totally noiseless. Canon’s NR and on camera sharpening are THE BEST and the primary market for canon cameras (sports/press) shoots jpeg for instant delivery, not raws for contrasty landscapes and backlit weddings, so its safe to assume canon knows exactly how much NR to apply to raw data and how to do it without smudging detail any more than an AA filter.
On the other hand, canons low DR trend and refusal to make small lenses might have something to do with sony snagging five major press contracts that used to belong to canon as soon as the a7iv and a9ii were out.

Imatest actually recommends applying some NR to more accurately test lens sharpness! The more you know!

>>4395845
have you seen the r5ii’s image quality? if e shutter made it worse it would be as bad as micro four thirds

>>4396242
Yes, for stuff that's easier to make than the actual cameras like tripods, grips, accessories and even lenses, there are mountains of chinky dogshit. But this isn't anything new. In the country I live in, the people are exceptionally stupid. Some of the stupidest people in the world, especially the old people. Everyone will always buy the cheapest version of everything no matter how much worse it is than the second most expensive thing, and you can see this when anyone is selling used gear. The most common lens brands you'll see are dogshit like Tasman, Makinon, Vivitar. Stuff that was unusably bad in its day and measurably worse now.

>>4396242
Chinese ball heads are fine. Its a ball you clamp in place. It should never be over $50 unless it is designed specifically to support active machine guns in a combat environment.

>>4396242
Some of the Chinese stuff is really good. Got an all-metal mini tripod with extension tube and ball head for $15. Holds my 2kg camera setup solidly.

>>4396250
I don't think that anybody in their right mind would choose a ball head to mount a machine-gun on desu. If they did though, they'd probably charge $15,000 and then lose it in storage because nobody knows what it was for.

>I'm guessing it will be sharper and brighter
It might be sharper or brighter but probably not both at once. Sure if you get a f/1.4 or something and open it up it will be brighter, but it'll be soft and out of focus.

I'll bet the softness you're complaining about is from NR due to high ISO. Even soft lenses are plenty sharp for video. The solution is video lights, not a new lens.
