>Gear thread for all gear related questions, news, bitching, and dick-measuring competitionsI personally am about to drop $2k AUD on a new Canon and want people to tell me I'm retarded one way or the other. I'm either buying an R8, R7, or R6 and can't make my mind up. Currently rocking an R10, but most of my lenses are FF. I'm kind of swaying to the R7 because of all the "pro" features and the fact I like the FoV of my current primes 24/50/100mm. However the amount of faging people do about FF just being overall superior is causing me to be indecisive.I do landscape, astro, travel snapshits, and macro primarily. I'd rather keep bulk to a minimum which is why I'm leaning towards the R8 over the R6, but like I said, call me a retard and tell me why.
If you're willing to accept the limitations of battery life, I'd suggest the R8. Gearfagging is a waste of money ultimately. If you can take a good picture with an R6, then you can take it with an R8.
Soon I will purchase a d780 and be set for the next 6 years. Looking forward to f-mount glass devaluing even more as the years pass by.
>>4380502>However the amount of faging people do about FF just being overall superior is causing me to be indecisive.You shouldn't worry about it, you won't notice the difference. That being said, if you're asking the question you will worry about it, so I think you should try full frame for yourself so that way you don't have to worry anymore, after that you'll know how you feel about full frame and there won't be any more questions.>I personally am about to drop $2k AUD on a new Canon and want people to tell me I'm retarded one way or the otherYou're retarded, you should buy a 5diii save yourself a lot of money while losing nothing on image quality.
>>4380508R10 uses the same battery and I'm not *super* dissapointed with it. I realise the bigger sensor will impact the life but it's honestly not a huge concern. People call the R8 the R6II lite and I get it; I'm just wondering if the slightly outdated sensor and bigger size/weight is worth going R6. Losing the joystick seems a bit gay, but IBIS sounds like a meme.
>>4380512I'm still shooting with a D600 so I can share lenses with my F5. I have to clean the sensor more often than I wish, but other than that, I don't really miss anything that newer cameras offer. If film was cheap and plentiful again I'd probably go back to film-only.
>>4380514IBIS can be useful in landscape shots, for example, if you don't have a tripod. But if the light is plentiful than it's not necessary, and a tripod is ideal anyways. not worth it, in my opinion. Glass is more important, ultimately.
>>4380513>you should buy a 5diii save yourself a lot of moneyI almost exclusively own RF lenses. The only thing I would get to keep is my EF 100mm Macro, and have to rebuild another $2k in lenses (yes EF will be cheaper)I get your point but I've gone mirrorless and don't particularly want to relive my 70D days, even if I could.
>>4380518You don't have to start over. Just pick up one or two EF lenses you find intersting, they can always be adapted to RF or if you don't like them you won't lose much selling them back once you've experienced full frame. I'm not just saying it because mirrorless bad (it is, but that's not the point). You'd spend a lot less money than you would buying a new camera outright and then you can decide which new mirrorless canon to buy with an informed opinion on full frame.
>>4380518This, I've had a 5DIV for like a 8 years now and I've never once figured of buying a new body. Buy once cry once.Don't buy the R7. You might enjoy the FoV (just sell your 24mm and buy the 35mm etc.), but sensor size/tech will improve your image IQ and clarity. Not to mention the lower pixel pitch gives you a slight edge in astro. 24MP is basically a sweet spot. You won't miss IBIS as long as you're using IS lenses (and non-IS is perfectly fine as long as you're not retarded with the shutter speed). Small battery is just a slight inconvenience if you already have spares.Maybe. MAYBE I could see buying the R7 if you're a birder or on a tighter budget, but if you already own full-sized RF glass, you've already paid the largest part of the cost. Why half-ass yourself now; if you bought the full sized lenses "in case of an upgrade later", this is that later.
>>4380515Nice, the oil spot issue turned me off of getting one for a steal. Just got annoyed playing around with RAW sample photos and noticed it was an issue with the reviewer's camera.One draw of the d780 for me is its acceptable auto focus for video, the video quality itself, and bsi sensor for high iso shots (birds).
whats a digital camera that doesn't do pic related?also any way to fix this?
>>4380593>be bought a camera without an antialiasing filterlol, dare I even say lmao
>>4380502I'm not goign to tell ya to buy a full frame, but if you decide to go ff, pick either R8 (I have it and it's a great camera), or if you NEED (not nice to have, but need) IBIS and dual meme card slots, buy R6ii. In general, with R8 you can do anything and you won't need to upgrade ever. I shoot everything with mine, and it's truly a great camera. The only downside is kinda poor battery life, although it lasts for a full football game for me so that's ok.
>>4380593No AA filter lmao. Did the previous owner say anything about it? >>4380596IBIS is a meme, and dual cards don't seem necessary for unpaid shoots. The gimped battery sucks but oh well. The only thing I can think is an issue is the lack of a joystick
Tried to clean and grease up an old manual Orestor 100mm f2.8 with a sticky focus ring. I also accidentally ended up de-clicking it, and the markings on the lens side are now just slightly off-center. Not sure if I should take this as a win or be the autist I am and try fixing it.[EXIF data available.

>buy my first big boy light, a GVM SD300D>have some GVM light panels that work fine so assume this one will be great for $200>finally arrived today and it has a weird pulsating with the power outputGuess I'm returning this shit immediately and getting a Nanlite like I originally wanted to. Just not sure if I should go with the FS300B which isn't much more expensive than this GVM or one of their Forza lights that someone is selling locally for $450 (it's an original 300B, not the 300B II which everone seems to think is considerably better). Anyone know enough about lights to tell me if it's worth the extra couple hundred bucks?
Post gear, fagsMy EDC is the ZV1 and once I get a bunch of big expenses out the way I'm probably gonna sell the Z50 for a A7C with a 28-200mm Lens. I kinda wanted a 5D Mk4 but the Snoys seem better to carry around.
>>4380928I picked up a used a7c recently, just waiting on my tamron zoom to arrive I played around with an a7iii before and the grip is much nicer but I know with lenses they're gonna be heavier and annoying to carry around for what I want to shoot (skateboarding)

Got a very good deal on R7 (not OP btw) which I pair with my old sugma 150-600 for wildlife.Now I want something wide-angle I can take with me innawoods.Turns out there is a huge market of cheap Chinese manuals nowadays with supposedly decent IQ and since my camera has both IBIS and focus peaking, I don't really see the downsides of getting something like TTArtisan 10mm f/2 and 23 mm f1.4 (And I can get them both together for about 220bux here) instead of coughing up 300+ for canon's rf 10-18, or two times that for sugma.What do you guys think.
>>4381363Adapt the superior ef-s 10-18
>>4381364Don't have oneEveryone keeps saying R7 sensor is too much for older zooms, would ef-s 10-18 really work better than a faster chink prime IQ-wise?F/2 would also be nice for some astro
I fucking hate dealing with Ukrainians and Russians.Wish they didn't have all that old gear I'm interested in buying.
>>4381363>i just need a smaller sensor for my smegma superzoooooooom!>i just need more reeeeeeeeeeeeeeach!>i need it for wildliiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiife!Great, even worse snapshits in the birb threads incoming
>>4381392wildlife is only one step above street, so I'd be careful before you start getting up on your high horse there friendo.
>>4381392Why are you mad.Yeah, reach is great if you are exploring rough terrain.Wetlands and swamps, mountains and hills, proper forests.You know, all the places where you cannot move around easily and rarely have the option to just take 10 steps forward to get closer to your subject. Hence why all them super professionals with their 10k$+ in gear use coooonveeertooooors with their larger sensors. Unless all you do is chasing squirrels at city parks or going to designated birdwatching spots where everything is prepared for you (so you can take the same ten photos of the same ten birds flying over/sitting on the same ten stumps as every other photographer in the area) you do need reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeach.>>4381396Is there an official ranking of genres of photography /p/eople here hate the most?Asking so I can piss off as many snobs as possible.
>>4381402We hate photos of huskies and german shepherds
>>4381363I own the TTartisan 25mm f/2 and it's rather good especially considering it's $60. It sits on my M43 camera, but the RF mount one is basically the same. Wide open it has some strong purple haze when directed at a light source, but otherwise is solid. I'm quite confident that most TTartisan lenses are cost-effective.>>4381383The high MP count doesn't really gain anything over the 24MP sensors since you're asking way too much from your lens sharpness. Even the most optically superb 1st party lenses will only gain so much, and 3rd party bargain finds are only going to struggle further. >f/2 would be nice for astroI would personally suggest the RF 24mm f/1.8 but that's, well, $550? A better all-rounded lens, but considering you'll manual focus for astro anyway, $60-200 sounds smarter.>>4381402>ranking of generesYes it goes like this:>Anything someone else took that isn't flawlessBad photo
>>4380502IMHO you should decide between the R6 and the R7.>but R8An extra 4mp and a faster e-shutter fps isn't worth giving up IBIS when the R6 can already do 12/20 fps. IMHO you also don't want to give up a full mech shutter. The appeal of the R8 is size (which isn't that much of a difference) and longer 4k recording time before thermal limit. The R6 is better built and sealed, with better ergonomics, a full mech shutter, a real battery, dual card slots, and oh yeah...industry leading IBIS. R6 is also a bit cleaner at the top ISOs (51k, 102k) which doesn't matter for most but is there.>R7Decent advantage for macro and a small advantage for landscapes (32mp compromised somewhat by being apsc). R6 will clobber it on astro or any lower light landscape. And unless you're printing your landscapes larger than 16x24, you've got plenty of megapickles already on the R6. Having said that, the real difference in astro is having a mount that can handle multi-minute subs. A mount like that trumps your camera choice. I don't have one yet, I'm limited to 8-15s subs. But here's the thing: with the R6 I can produce in a single frame what used to take multiple subs, picrel. I've got another shot very much like this but it required several minutes worth of 8-10s subs. This is ONE 8s frame. It's not just how high you can push the ISO, it's how much you can do with the RAW file afterwards. So even if you get an expensive, pro astro mount capable of 10 minute subs, the R6 will do more with less total integration time.IMHO the real deciding factor on R8 vs R6 is the 4k thermal limit. If you're primarily doing video on a gimbal or tripod, the R8 can record longer. But Canon's IBIS is huge for video so if you're doing hand held, you're back to the R6. R7 is a great camera but mainly for reach in birding and sports. And yes, that helps with macro too.Personally, I would go R6. I can kind of understand if you go R7. But R8 doesn't make sense, go R6 if you want FF.[EXIF data available.

>>4381444The R7 is slowly losing the fight in my mind; sure I get IBIS, dual cards, and better ergos... but that's it? Would also be better for macro, but worse for astro, so fuck me I guess.It doesn't sound like it's worth the several thousand dollars to me. I'm just paranoid I will want to rebuild my lens selection with the new FoV granted by full frame.The R8's smaller size and lower weight appeal to me. I don't have IBIS on my R10, and every lens I use except the 50mm f/1.8 has IS. The bigger battery of the R6 is a plus, but I can't say it's a dealbreaker. Having no joystick will suck though.Honestly I'm swaying to the R8 as it seems friendlier for travel pictures thanks to the lower size/weight, and still provides a solid sensor for 4/5 of my photo generes. Macro will lose out on pixels-per-duck versus my R10 or R7, but I'm not even sure it'll be enough to notice since diffraction starts assfucking me.
>>4381454I recommend a sony a7c
>>4381454Having experienced R6 IBIS, I wouldn't choose to go without it. It boosts lenses with IS and opens up the field giving lenses without IS 4-6 stops of IS. It's killer for hand held video, even with non-IS lenses. To me the size difference vs the R8 (or RP) just isn't worth it. The R6 is about as small as I would want to go any way when using large lenses.But if you have different priorities...everyone I've talked to who owns the R8 loves it, so I don't think it's a bad choice in any way.>>4381458>i recommend a camera that is worse in every way
>>4381458Hahahahahahahaha. Snoy.>>4381464At this point I'm probably just going to flip a coin and be upset either way for one reason or another. Oh well, I'll report back when I bite the bullet.
>>4380502>>4380518>I do landscape, astrobuy a K-1>I almost exclusively own RF lensesnever mind

>>4381554Oh, and I forgot: another single frame 8s shot on the R6. Shouldn't even be able to see that nebula in a single 8s sub, but there it is. Pure high ISO performance. The R6 and R8 can do 4k60 by moonlight. With a fast prime (IS lens on the R8, any lens on R6) you can handhold moonlit shots. You don't even need a fucking tripod anymore to do night hiking shots, or something like a ghost town under full moon. ISO 12,800 is cleaner than ISO 100 35mm film straight out of camera RAW.What can the A7C do again? I can't remember.

>>4381559The same thing without gay gimmicks like 4k60. It also has normal full frame DR for its first gain stage instead of a missing stop hidden behind forced noise reduction. In return for 4k60 (a useless gimmick) you get IBIS, better colors, better lenses, better battery life, and a better designed body that isn’t a blob. How better? Sony’s 28-70 f2 is half the size of canon’s. Their lenses are generally better.

>>4381599Nah canuck lost as soon as he brought up niche video like slomo frameratesIRL i have a canon r6ii but its a single purpose camera that lives in a dry box with its gay zooms and makes money when it sees fresh air. sony is better for most people, but they cripple the cameras outside of the spurts models too hard for talentless low effort spray and pray to be used to shoot an event you don’t want to be at. If you used a canon at a fat bitches wedding set to shitty rap music 9 or 10 times you would be biased against the blob blasters too.
>>4381608Alright, I'll bite. What exactly prevents you from taking the R6II out for personal shit? Or is it just the fact that it's your work tools and that's that? From what I've seen, heard, and reviewed personally, the R6II is king of mirrorless atm.
>>4381620It’s just a fat piece of shit with a nice spec sheet. You do not need even half the features on it unless you are shooting events or sports. First dance video is a great phrase for talking about canon. Canon is first and foremost a professional brand, and if they could they would design every camera with a battery grip to hammer it home, in case smaller mirrorless being the exact same size as a 5d didn’t tip you off. The camera designer assumes the first lens you’ll put on it will be a 24-70 f2.8 and if you’re 99% of canon’s customers they’re right. The sony alpha lineup was originally designed as a hobbyist system and released alongside f1.8 primes and f4 zooms. And it shows, in how good they are for personal use, and how hard sony has been buttfucking their own cameras out of stepping on a1 sales even a little while being afraid of blobbing out like professionals with professional lenses would really prefer. They absolutely need to cut the crap and split their offerings like fuji if they want to be #1 but their MO is always fucking everyone just a little to keep them upgrading and buying upmarket models. Canon doesnt have to behave in such an insecure manner because they closed their mount and still have better support.
>>4381599Very heavy because they are designed to hold a monorail camera! 20 inches of movement!! I've been wanting one of these Sinar rails for a long time to improve stability in my set up, and got a reasonable deal on the two. The Sinar branded rails like these are actually quite rare. I've only seen one other show up on ebay.
>>4381624>how hard does sony buttfuck their cameras then?So hard the a6700 has a more pleasant EVF than the a7cii like they were afraid of people abandoning the a7iv en masse. Same panel different optics. Flawless example of sony behavior. We can’t make it that good! What if no one buys the other one? Its bad enough that sigma is on our ass. Besides half the people buying are just vacationers. -Sony.Just give the professionals aka paying customers exactly what they want, anyone who thinks its too much or not enough can cope. We already have them on 30 years of EF gear. Are they going to leave? Lol. -Canon
>>4381624Sony is basically the pseudo-luxury segment under leica. In the same class as apple, really. They care a lot about having exclusivity be part of their brand so people can be cooler for owning the better ones, and they care a more about their styling than how comfortable the cameras are to use in a professional setting because their camera brand is built on vlogger normies who actually think undersized matte black bricks look cool.If you're a reasonable sony enjoyer instead of a total consoomer you're like a leica Q user.>It's not AS big as a scam, and it's small!>Only $200 more to get 4k120, 60fps shooting, and a nicer grip from canon? How is that going to affect my photos of hobos with a 28mm? Do you work for football or something?
>>4381624Fair points. It's always been my understanding that Canon is a "Pro first" company, even before I knew anything about cameras, because every single model looks basically the same to eminante that "You too can look like a pro" styling. It's absolutely true and I wish it were different, because you end up having to spend a lot to get a "great" system. I do it enough and enjoy photography enough to spend for it, but yeah I see your point.Thankfully the shit that does trickle down [economics] to the lower-grade models is enough for me to keep invested in the ecosystem, while being fully aware that they kneecap and cripplehammer anything lesser than the R6.I really just can't justify buying into a new lens mount when the results I get out of my lowly R10 (and previous 70D) are great in my eyes. >>4381626I think I remember you posting your 'yuge camera a couple weeks back. Looking forward to your contributions to the dying /mage/ thread.

>>4381624What a pile of dog shit. Your opinion is rightly discarded with the daily trash.>It’s just a fat piece of shit with a nice spec sheet.I don't even begin to know what your complaint is, other than it's a way to shill and sound negative about the best mirrorless cameras available for most people. Canon bodies have excellent ergonomics and grips. It's Sony who has barely evolved from a blob of metal. Ever try supporting a big lens on a Sony mirrorless body? Pain...>You do not need even half the features on it unless you are shooting events or sports, the two predominant things people photograph. This amounts to admitting Canon features > Sony features but spinning it as a negative. You should consider writing for politicians. "Sure my opponent has a plan to end poverty, but who wants that?">Canon is first and foremost a professional brandOh holy shit, you just keep digging the hole deeper. Yeah, most people want to shoot like pros. Just because you will never marry or be on a sports team...>in case smaller mirrorless being the exact same size as a 5d didn’t tip you off.All the M bodies and the lower end apsc bodies are FAR smaller than a 5D. Hell, so is the R6 for that matter, but not to the extent that it compromises big glass in that particular case. And unlike snoy, Canon can make a pancake to fit the smaller bodies. My M+22mm is P&S size.>99% of canon users love sharp fast pro glassYes, they have shit to shoot.>ignores that canon also has f/1.8 primes and f/4 zooms; ignores shit like the smallest high IQ 16mm lens in existenceCOPE>And it shows, in how good they are for personal useIt shows how you cherry pick.>and how hard sony has been buttfucking their own cameras outIs that why Sony is a solid #2?>They absolutely need to cut the crap and split their offerings like fuji if they want to be #1But they are already #1, retard.

Give me one good reason to get a full frame system instead of shooting only crop.
>>4382180Looks prettier desu
If I want to buy an older Sigma lens to adapt, does it matter if I go for Canon EF or Nikon F (and I'm not adapting to RF or Z respectively)? Is there an inherent advantage to either in terms of adapting or photo vs video use?
>>4382180If you shoot at iso 6400+ you might see a small difference in the 100% crops
>>4382180It might not make a difference even most of the time, but it gives you that little bit extra when you need it. Just think of it like crop+.Sometimes it might not make a difference at all when you are already getting adequate performance for your needs.Sometimes you might want just a little bit better high ISO performance, or a little better dynamic range, or a little better subject isolation. You can always do workarounds with crop too, or just get that little bit extra with full frame.Can be a bit more convenient if adapting film era glass too.I probably split my shooting 50/50 between crop and full frame.
Reminder: 24mp is a medium sized photo and just barely larger than a 4k display. 8k displays will be LARGER than 24mp photos. In the future all of your photos will be seen at 100% and you’ll wish you shot them on a better camera, like a $750 cannot 5ds, instead of a $2000 panasonic. This is the same experience boomers had as screen tech blew past the resolution of old DSLRs and puny film scans, and the zoom out level needed to fit the photo on the screen dwindled until they were seeing flaws that never existed on VGA and HD panels. These same people who were saying 8mp was good enough to print a 16x20 suddenly raised their standards and stopped coping about viewing distances because it became economical to begin approaching the detail of film (24 true color, non interpolated megapixels on good 35mm) again and they could stop pretending worse cameras were better. What a day it was when FF digital finally reached DR parity with negative film (14 stops). Sadly this came with the death of medium format because most people were shooting it for grain reduction instead of crazy resolution figures that are difficult to shoot and scan for even today, and digital is grainless at base ISO. RIP hasselblad. HR FF and fuji MF chads of the future will look at your puny pixellet camera like people look at the d200 today. Looks worse than a phone. A hipster cope gimmick. Style over substance. “Street photogaphy gear”. Be warned, gearfags. >wow, is that a z6ii? Talk about retro! You must be a trevor wisecup fan to use a camera that old. Does it ever bother you that it looks so close to a phone with bokeh?

>>43822093000x2000 to 6000x4000 sounds massive at first but the visual impact is minimal and it’s barely enough resizing to hide bayer blur and noise. Toggle between full size and scaled to fit on a 4k screen and you can see how cameras are starting to fall into an awkward spot. Phones shoot with over 40mp now so when shown at 4k they look technically flawless. Oversampling is some shit and the japanese camera industry has barely improved sensor tech to cope. Of course all the pro models are over 40mp, they have to be. 24mp apsc/high iso ff on 4k is starting to look close to 40mp phones on 4k. The camera industry will shrink more and more every year because of this.
>>4382198You have a good point here. I shoot APS-C and MFT and the noise performance on MFT is sometimes pretty bad, so I try to shoot it only in good light. Can't tell much difference then.

When you guys sell gear do you go through the effort of selling it piece by piece or do you let the Boys in Brooklyn lowball you? Thinking about the effort needed for ebay or Craigslist for all of this stuff and I might just take the financial hit for the convenience.
>>4382215Ebay for convenience, though they take a steep cut which you should factor in. Still better than MPB/Keh
>>4382213You're right mft and phones are indistinguishable
>>4382215It really depends on what I'm selling. I will often check recent ebay sold prices and compare them to the offer I get. Pretty often it's around $100, if so, I'll just sell it to MPB/KEH. Imo, it's worth it up to ~$150 because after ebay takes it's 15% cut and shipping. The remainder deficit is worth it to not have to deal with scammers or other issues and the ability to sell the gear immediately.Another instance I will take the offer is if I think the gear will sit on ebay for months.

I have a Canon EOS-M with the kit lens (used, cheap). I bought some spacer rings for it, some lights and kind of enjoy macro photography. Considering I don't really have a commitment to any brand, no other lenses, should I just buy a macro lens for the EF-M mount like the EF-M 28mm f/3.5 IS STM or I would be better of with a different camera and some better lens? Targeting really budget category, like < 700$.
>>4382232I dont think you’ve seen what comes out of a 15 pro max’s wide camera recentlyEven the low light mode holds up to FF ISO cranking. Phones have gotten very good if you buy the nicer ones. At this point in technology 24mp FF is FOR THA LOOOOOK! and if you pixel peep its just a little more lifelike, but not more detailed.
>>4382211by the time 8k screens are common, ai upscaling will make resolution worries a thing of the past
>>4382233If all you want is macro, just get a macro for the M. You can get the EF-M or any EF macro with an adapter. Hell, my first macro lens was a cheap as fuck Canon FL 50mm f/3.5 macro adapted with a FD-FL/EF-M adapter. Sharp as fuck, cost me less than a fast food meal (I already had the adapter, which is also cheap).

While I love high res FF, this is pure FUD.>because it became economical to begin approaching the detail of film (24 true color, non interpolated megapixels on good 35mm)This shit again? 35mm Velvia 50 is maybe 16mp of real world detail, at best. Lots of shadow detail or a low key scene and it's even worse. Most films struggled to hit 10mp equivalent real world. 6mp DSLRs were popular because while a lot of 35mm films could out resolve them, the sharpness and zero grain mattered more for the scene.>What a day it was when FF digital finally reached DR parity with negative film (14 stops).E6 films are 6-8 stops, most C41 films are ~10-11. Portra can hit 12 stops. If you specially develop some B&W films you can hit crazy numbers (~16-18 stops) but they're a bitch to scan or darkroom print.>Sadly this came with the death of medium format because most people were shooting it for grain reduction instead of crazy resolution figuresTonality and low grain were always more important to MF than sharpness or res, though those mattered too.
>>4382198It's more than that. An R6 at ISO 12,800 is cleaner than 35mm ISO 100 films, before any NR is applied. The mid tier 20-24 MP FF sensors today really are incredible in low light.
>>4382243You don't even need AI scaling, 24mp will scale to 8k just fine with any intelligent scaling algorithm. He's just pushing FUD, and that's coming from someone who gets off on big 50mp prints.
>>4382251>An R6 at ISO 12,800 is cleaner than 35mm ISO 100 films, before any NR is applied
>>4382247>t. noprints45-61mp FF can already handle 60" prints which no one ever makes. (They're awesome if you do.) I seriously doubt 100mp will ever become the standard because nobody needs the res boost against things like low light performance (vs lower res in the same format) and reasonable data storage costs. FF probably will hit 100mp, but that will be the specialty high res sensors. Most people will still buy 24mp and 45mp sensors. IF 8k monitors ever become the norm, you might see the mid tier align at 33mp, but there's no rush for 8k.>FF will, like mft in its dying days, rely on sensor tech bumps to stay relevant until the last lens rusts together.FF will remain the #1 choice because of performance, cost, and weight. apsc will still be around for extremely small setups, MF for the people who feel they need 100-200mp, and mft is in trouble.
>>438225035mm film is ~24mp if you know what the fuck you’re doing. All the old resolution figures are from when only rich faggots could use drums and most of the time the drum scans would be fucked, so the average film scan sucked balls. Now everyone camera scans and we’re finding extra detail even at resolutions approaching a gigapixel on well shot MF.We’re also not seeing many people succeed at that because diffraction at the finest detail level does still in fact hit at f5.6 no matter how big your film is, the ultra majority of film lenses are trash, SLRs shake too much to achieve it, peoples hands shake too much, and most cameras cant use a shutter speed high enough to freeze motion for such absurdly high res scans. Hence the death of MF and basically everything in LF being discontinued already. Can and does are different things on film. Even your DR figures are schizo shit between old scanners and darkroom work. Slide is low DR yes, but in real use by real users with camera scanning portra has about 14 stops with a strong highlight bias that only MILC scanning can fully take advantage of. Old scanners would blow out and you’d go nuts trying to dodge and burn it all in on paper. Ken was right about RealRaw. But it calls into question the utility of film, when it only works that well with 10 times the light, if you use TOTL and impractical gear, for a photo of bricks, and film has fucked colors, and needs developed, cleaned, wet mounted, and scanned - with a whole extra camera that is perfectly capable of taking the exact same photo on its own. Make no mistake. Huge nerds are squeezing gigapixels out of ektar. They only had to spend $20,000 and shoot nothing but rocks to get there.
>>4382254Yes. Go compare an ISO 12,800 R6 RAW with a good histogram to a scan of ISO 100 35mm film. I just did this comparison off my P900. With NR there's not a hint of noise. Without NR it's still tighter than 35mm film grain.

>>4382256>35mm film is ~24mp if you know what the fuck you’re do...Dude, read a tech sheet sometime. Most films test to 50-60 lp/mm real world. At 60 that equates to 12.4mp. So Kodak, Fuji, and Ilford say you're full of shit. Even rated at 80 lp/mm Velvia 50 only equates to 22mp.In the real world even 1.6:1 res tests overstate film's resolution. Which means in the real world most 35mm films struggled to hit 10mp, Velvia could hit about 15-16mp, but still much softer than digital and with more grain.>muh drum scan is bad!You have literally no clue what you're talking about. And lp/mm tests are not performed with scanners of any kind.>Even your DR figures are schizo shit between old scanners and darkroom work.Dumb ass, they come straight from Kodak, Fuji, and Ilford tech sheets.

>>4382260Blah blah blah. Its this delusional faggot spamming his invalid, thoroughly contradicted tests again.

FOR THE 12TH TIME. Ignored. You get a new hobby. The rest of us will continue seeing that 24mp MILC scans of vision 3 are as detailed as 24mp MILC photos. Or in one guys case, that his 400mp scans of 35mm fujikodak are close to a blurrier d850.
>map spammer is here to be wrong againwhy even bother lolpeople will see the facts eventually and you’re just one schizo on 4chan
>>4382259Here you go. Left is 35mm Provia 100F shot during the daytime, right is R6 at ISO 12800. R6 was down scaled to film scan size, then 1000px crops taken from the background of each.In this case I might give it to Provia by a hair. But neg films definitely had worse grain than Provia 100F. (Except Kodak Supra 100, which was awesome while they made it and scanned very well. That could compete as well. I was pissed when Kodak discontinued Supra 100 and 400, Supra 400 was my favorite 400 film in 35mm.)The RAW was processed with default (low) NR in ACR. If I turn it completely off it's a little worse. But then again, other RAW converters will show less, and the JPG is cleaner ooc.So I'll be generous and modify my claim: ISO 12800 is a little bit worse than the best ISO 100 35mm films, equal to or better than many ISO 100 films. The break even point is actually ISO 6400. But at 16x20 there's nothing to choose between the two even at 12800, even against one of the best low grain films.
>>4382264Blah blah blah it's this delusional faggot who thinks he knows more than Kodak, Fuji, and Ilford. Fuck off nophoto.

No scanners are ever involved. You're just a nophoto spouting ignorance. You can capture all that data with a drum or, today, a high res camera scan. But you cannot exceed it because there's nothing more there. Kodak didn't miss a lp under a microscope.>People are getting 14 stops out of heavily overexposed portraThat would be news to Kodak, who tests their films with a sensitometer. Again, no scanners involved. No, overexposure doesn't help you, it just compresses the highlights, trading a stop of highlight detail for a stop of shadow detail. Why in the fuck do you think Ansel Adam's zone system has 11 total zones, one of which is "pure black" and the other "pure white"? That's because most films are only 10-11 stops.Oh, I forgot, you've never shot film, never read Adams, never used a scanner or a sensitometer, never posted a photo. But you now know more than Kodak, Fuji, Ilford, and fucking Ansel Adams.>nooo it's still a stop even if the color is fucked!Oh holy cope. That's not even what happens any way, you just compress the highlights into oblivion.

>50mp (17mp) of Nervous Bayer squiggles
>>4382284Yes. Just because you cant scan for shit doesnt mean it can’t be done. Some geek got 6x7 velvia and an 80mp mfdb to fall into moire (nyquist limit) and nada (lines to solid gray) at the same resolution. If you cant manage that on a map of all things, perhaps you cant shoot or perhaps you cant scan. People with better kit have distinguished 1px line pair details in 750mp scans. But it’s film, so acutance is almost nothing by then and you can see actual holes in the image. Film has its flaws but lacking absolute detail is not one. Like in that tire test you fucked up. You cropped the film twice as much to get the test subject the same size, and it still had more fine detail. That was funny. Guess you were too mad at the grain to notice. Whats also funny is the impracticality involved in both shooting and scanning at that level. Using a 150mp phase one camera for a multi shot copy rig. Just take the L. As it turns out the second worst high resolution DSLR is not a perfect replacement for a superior format. You really need a gfx100 for that. You should really stick to saying film is too impractical, light hungry, and hard to get modern quality equipment for. After all don’t you see the absurdity? Film beats digital cameras by being scanned with better digital cameras. A single shot 150mp scan of a MF negative is the most anyone wants because its more useful than discerning the faintest details hidden in grains. In that case why not take the photo with the same 150mp camera in the first place, right? Don’t you get it?You were almost right, but consistently for the wrong reasons, by focusing on invalid resolution tests and pretending better scans never happened. Because how could anyone rake a photo of a document better than you did amiriteDon’t deny reality too hard now. Or bring up muh contrast, when this contrast is also on your gay map.

The airy disc’s size is what it is and portra 400’s grain structure doesnt get spread thin with bigger grains for 4x5 like pixels on digital. >>4382293There is more than enough contrast on your gay map and you lost the tire test despite cropping the film scan twice as deep and there being no contrast there. So here we are, you are blind and have the memory of a goldfish. The angry guy who said you’re not smart enough for this debate may have been right all along.
>>4382298>more words>more clinging to a line chart which couldn't predict real world performance in the same blog postOK nophoto
>>4382291The numbers on provia are much clearerThe numbers on the iq180 look like pixellated phone detail. 8 turned into B. I’m sorry, but turning 8 into B does not indicate a superior camera. Doesn’t this mean provia in 6x7 is actually more than 80mp? If film’s foveon, foveon is 50% higher resolution than bayer, therefore 6x7 provia is 120mp or more and 6x9 is probably like 150mp, and 35mm is around 36-37mp. Pretty much exactly what good MILC scans top out at before they look a bit shit.
>>4382298>Yes 4x5 is diffraction limited a f5.6>FILM WOULD BE BETTER IF IT WASN'T FOR DIFFRACTION REEEEEEOh holy shit, I can't let this one go. You think the diffraction limits for mft apply to fucking 4x5. You don't understand shit about aperture or diffraction. Just more nophoto ignorance. Diffraction does not impact any format more than another for the same fov and dof.Here's your magical floating cobweb.[EXIF data available.

>>4382301If you grain peep images get softer fromF5.6… the size of the airy disc is what it is. It doesn’t matter if your lens is big or your film is big. F5.6 is F5.6. The airy disc is the same. You can enlarge big film less to hide it. Also purposefully lowering the quality of a known good film scan is NOT a good look on you.
>>4382303Oh wow look, super fine detail vs straight lines bayer has turned wavy. Amazing. I refer you to this objective test where nada-resolution on an 80mp scan coincided with the nyquist limit on an 80mp mfdb>>4382291Where apparently there may have been resolution on tap because digit turned 8 into B and 6x7 provides the reference image.
>>4382304>nooo muh stupid theory proves all film is diffraction limited!To reach film scan dimensions digital files typically have to be enlarged, quite a bit sometimes because of extreme oversampling in high end scanners. No, diffraction is not impacting the film samples more than the digital samples. Stop with the copes.>>4382305>muh wavy line!That's how the lens is cast. It has nothing to do with Bayer. I'm not surprised that you don't know that since you've never left your basement.

I thought it was meant to be SEALED BEAM? And be the color of the composite, not random rainbow colors reserved for the finest of details. And he switched his chart for one that had a B instead of an 8 too? Fascinating. Why would he do that?I think we’re done here. One day you will buy a gfx and not have to cope as hard! Or maybe an xt4 and give up on your failed career as mr. resolution. That would be extremely epic. Just don’t switch to 35mm, that shit goes toe to tor with a d810!

>>4382307literally all film is diffraction limited. if you enlarge 4x5 and 35mm both to 8x10 4x5 will appear to soften at much smaller apertures than 35mm, but if you shoot them at the same aperture and enlarge 4x5 so a 35mm section of it becomes an 8x10, assuming the lens is even as sharp, the film was even flat there, and there isnt motion blur from the exposure time, they will look the same. get it? f22 4x5 at max grain peep will look worse than f8 6x9 at max grain peep.

>>4382213I find M43 is best used in B&W to fuck off chrominance noise, since even at base ISO it's present.>>4382233EF-M Has macro lenses? Like true 1x mag lenses? Interesting. For minimum monies, I would buy an EF-EF-M adapter ring, and an EF 100mm f/2.8 USM. The non-IS version is just as optically superb as the IS version, but like half the price. IIRC they're about $350 USD. The IS version is more like $800 used. Don't get the non-USM version which is older and shittier than both of those.Macro lenses are generally not cheap, but IS isn't super useful at macro distances, and you'll want either a tripod or a speedlite anyway, which reduces the need for IS.
>>4382337How many times can I get you to post a photo?>zero
>>4382383Yeah, you get some noise in iso 200 even. It's not really visible without pixel peeping though. I tend to shoot a lot with the computational modes, which is why I even use the system anymore. Pic not related, iso 640 shadows recovered. It's pretty noisy, but you could smooth those details with AI denoising at this point. I don't think the image is all too special so I didn't bother.[EXIF data available.

>>4382210No, because it lacks a viewfinder Avoid the Ricoh or x100, they're overpriced tiktok cameras
>>4382461Heres the problem. Noise is not color specs and luma specs. Noise is noise. Its not a true color camera so noise is just errors from reconstructing an image from low quality data, like a broadcast with tons of static. Even if you stand far away or put it on a tiny TV, its still going to look a bit lofi. On cameras this makes color and contrast lofi even if you cant see the speckles when you zoom out. Then the computer or person editing adds a ton of fake looking contrast and vibrance to try and revive the image and pretend the “broadcast” was ultra 4k hdr and not a lofi tv signal, bringing us to your photo, and basically every crop cope and high ISO/shadow push snapshit ever. The contrast and vibrance are fake and look fake. Past ISO 400 (full sized sensor), what little actual photo the silicon demon picked up looks best as a lower contrast, less colorful edit, or preferably B&W. Nothing has actually changed since film. Nice color photo ISO range: 25-400Funky vibey colors ISO range: 400-6400B&W ISO range: 25-25,600Jpeg = slides and polaroidsRaw = negativesYour photos will pull ahead of all the rockwells if you stop trying to make lofi lodr look as punchy as hifi hdr. It has nothing to do with whether or not you can see the speckles, the signal is lofi.
>>4382335If you’re counting megapixels on film for purpose of determining the maximum print size/quality of a scan then everything is enlarged to the same grain density to reach the point where all details are visible, not the same print size. This is useful because no one cares about graininess anymore, but printing has gotten really fucking cheap and anyone can print a four by five foot photo now. Originally film specs were all centered around grain. The more grain you could see the worse it was supposed to be. Scanning 35mm with 400mp would be over-scanning. Scanning 4x5 with 30mp would be under-scanning. Simple? But in the old days, everyone would be baffled, one, because computers didnt exist, enlargers did, and two, because 4x5 was for making an 8x10 that didnt look grainy or soft, not for making a wall sized print at 300dpi. That would be grainy and soft. The old way was, so what if this size shows there was more detail, its not sharp, and its grainy, so its “bad!”. The new way is, grainy and soft look better than grainless images with crisp edges.
>>4382461That's not bad. People obsess over noise while pixel peeping instead of looking at prints or normal screen views. They would cry if they could only shoot 35mm for a month.
>>4382534>Its not a true color camera so noise is just errors from reconstructing an image from low quality dataThis crap again. There is nothing wrong with Bayer. Your eyeball literally works the same way. You can get a small boost in resolution, on some targets, with 3 layer capture (Foveon). Ironically you end up sacrificing color accuracy though because Foveon sensor noise prevents the kind of color distinction available to the latest CMOS Bayer sensors. Bayer is excellent on modern cameras, with color resolution and tonality that easily exceeds 3-4 layer color film in the same format or even a much larger format. Today's cameras can accurately distinguish literally billions of colors.It's not 2003 any more. We're not talking about the first 2-3mp cameras with early RAW processors.>On cameras this makes color and contrast lofi even if you cant see the speckles when you zoom out.Nothing currently shipping in the ILC market is "lofi", not even mft. We passed the point a while ago where you could randomly grab a Bayer digital ILC off the shelf and produce stunning 16x20 prints with immersive fine detail and no artifacts. Now the questions are just how much detail do you need (high res FF; MF) and how high do you want to push the ISO (also favors FF and MF). If you're never going above ISO 800 or printing larger than 16x20, anything will work.
>>4382538>then everything is enlarged to the same grain density to reach the point where all details are visibleOver sampled film scans are passed the point of reasonable enlargement straight out of the scanner. No, diffraction is not impacting the Ektachrome 6x9 scan more than the 5Ds RAW when it's the RAW that has to be enlarged for a 1:1 comparison. It's the opposite. Diffraction is hitting the 5Ds harder, and yet it still wins.
>>4382540>there is nothing wrong with bayerCope. Its shit technology. Gamut doesnt matter btw. Aesthetics do. >mft is not lofiIts literally worse than my phone. Stop adding fake vibrance and global contrast to try and make your interpolated satanic bayer scans look like higher quality data. Its gross.
>>4382542>>there is nothing wrong with bayer>Cope. Its shit technology. "Shit technology" with the ability to distinguish billions of colors in a 35mm sized sensor. I'm not sure if even 4x5 can distinguish that many colors. Probably not because it still relies on the "shit technology" of dithering dyes that clump into grain.>Gamut doesnt matter btw. Aesthetics do."I have no clue how to edit my photos, so I need a chemist in Rochester NY to do it for me.">>mft is not lofi>Its literally worse than my phone.I would ask for you to post proof of that, but we both know you won't.
>>4382541>its not reasonable enlargementBecause you can see grains? And its not “sharp”? No. We are past these soulless, shitty standards. Grain and distinct but soft detail are cool now. And incel adams was a talentless trust fund hack who didnt even deserve a footnote in the history books. >the 5ds wins when i fuck everything upBut back in reality an 80mp mfdb is slightly behind a pedestrian drum scan of 6x7. You just suck shit at scanning. >BUT THE 4X5Is a different system, a less rigid and less precise one. Shooting at f22 and losing resolution to diffraction, film unflatness, and most likely motion blur. Focus on the 6x7 because roll cameras are closer to DSLRs. The 80mp MFDB turns 8 into B. 6x7 does not. The 80mp MFDB creates moire at the same point where the 80mp drum scam ceases to resolve distinct details. Therefore, a well done scan of 6x7 is at least 80mp. Really simple stuff. This is consistent with the 6x9 car scan significantly outdoing every 5ds raw you can put up. You lost. Shut up and go cry in private. Your fudged, low quality shot does not invalidate tests done by more competent people. Go now.

Hello,I've been shooting since 2017 when I got a used Sony A6000. It served me well until I moved up to a Sony A7rii. I really love that camera but I fell for the Fuji film simulation meme and bought a Fuji X-E4 a few years ago as an every day camera.The thing is I'm spoiled by Sony's autofocus. I really wanted to like the Fuji but I think it's just ok. The autofocus sucks especially for any type of video. I had the A600 and the X-E4 on a tripod and even an old antiquated A600 was blowing it away with autofocus. I just find myself not enjoying carrying the Fuji out with me.I used to shoot film, so I guess I just have to treat the Fuji like it's a film camera and shoot everything in manual. It just never really grew on me. It the same exact form factor and film simulations existed with the Sony, I would have picked that up instead. I watched too many Fuji film sim videos on YouTube though.
>>4382540>There's nothing wrong with bayerI mean, there is, but it can be mostly rectified by resizing images to half the native resolution. Which is bullshit because it means typical modern consoomer 24 megapickle cameras need to become 8 megapickles for maximum IQ. At least foveon marketed their 8.7 megapickle cameras as actual 8.7 megapickles. HOWEVER, most of that issue gets tossed out the window when you print, since the printing paper also masks the bayer artefacts.>>4382561You're actually a photoless fag>>4382579You're a lazy fag>>4382580Burden of Proof fag

>>4382862I bought the very first em1. It worked amazing at first but after one camping trip where it got rained on, it stopped being able to turn off. It was always on without pulling the battery.Some time later I bought an em1ii. It worked amazing at first and I stayed out of the rain this time, and then the LCD cut out after a year. I sold it for parts.A bad batch of shutters mixed in with the a7iii does not affect you unless you're buying the a7iii. I'd be careful around the shills o the internet. OM system has been caught paying off reviewers to post objectively, technologically incorrect lies and a test where olympus had their grubby, money laundering, bribe-crazy hands in it is the only time I've seen an A7RIII and D850 both get water in them, cameras actual, non reviewer people have used in the rain for hours without issues. These days sony makes the best cameras and lenses, and panasonic has a shill brigade basically entirely confined to /p/ and sony alpha rumors to try and cope with it.

>post broken snoy bait>rash of long winded snoy defenses
>>4382674>>There's nothing wrong with bayer>I mean, there is, but it can be mostly rectified by resizing images to half the native resolution.There is nothing wrong with Bayer. Early Bayer artifacts (6-10mp days) were more about resolution/sampling frequency than Bayer itself. Around the 20mp mark those artifacts pretty much disappeared. At high resolution (i.e. 36mp and higher) they just never occur. The great thing about high res FF is that you can view 1:1 on a 4k monitor (~200ppi) and they still look perfect with no hint of underlying image structure, just pure reality.Do you see artifacts with your Bayer eyeball? No? That's because the sampling frequency is well past the point where those artifacts would occur.
>>4382904>bayer eyeballEyeballs are RGBW which is actually superior to bayer if processing is advanced enough. The W channel can be used to denoise, sharpen, and get additional DR and the green bias is gone. RGBW could come back today, but japs are stupid as fuck. Cameras have worse screens and way worse processors and way less RAM than phones. The processing on every camera short of an r1 is so bad that you cant get them to demosaic an image half as well as LR/C1… or even darktable with a fuckton of profiling work to fully fix colors. You actually get moire that wouldnt be there and worse. At this low level of tech, japan is not fixing their shit and switching to RGB(W+ND) any time soon. If they cant keep up with an iphone SE’s screen they definitely cant move sensor CFA tech and processing forward all the way to 2012.If your eyeball were bayer your vision would be horrible with less dynamic range, worse colors, and more noise.
>>4382904Only cinema cameras get actual innovation like rgbw (blackmagic 12k)Even global shutter was introduced by, surprise, NON ASIAN BUSINESSES SERVICING THE MOTION PICTURE INDUSTRY. Only the west has the balls to innovate in less than 2 lifetimes. Japanese tech is stagnant and under the control of 40+ year old “elders” who are scientifically, provably, less intelligent, less creative, and less able to absorb new information than the people they have total control over.
>>4382906>Eyeballs are RGBW which is actually superior to bayer if processing is advanced enough.I can agree with that statement, but it's not why you don't see artifacts in your eyeballs. As I've already stated, once sampling frequency passes a certain point those early Bayer problems disappeared. Which is why there is a shocking, just shocking lack of PHOTOS illustrating the problem in this discussion.>Cameras have worse screens and way worse processors and way less RAM than phones. The processing on every camera short of an r1 is so bad that you cant get them to demosaic an image half as well as LR/C1What does this have to do with Bayer? Nothing. Nobody uses their camera to convert their RAWs, and we all want neutral, flexible RAWs ooc. (Except maybe Fuji preset shooters.) So cameras have been slow to adopt computation photography. That's done at home.>If they cant keep up with an iphone SE’s screen they definitely cant move sensor CFA tech and processing forward all the way to 2012.They don't need to because there is nothing wrong with it now. The only possible reason for exploring RGBW would be to try and gain a little more low light performance. It's likely not worth it. It works for our eyes because the W part is a completely different cell with dramatically different sensitivity. In a CMOS camera W pixels would be essentially the same, with just a little more exposure due to a clear filter, adding very little to S in SNR.>If your eyeball were bayerIt literally is. Our W cells don't add nearly as much to image formation in daylight as you think.
>>4382904>women chooses a bayer
>>4382908>Even global shutter was introduced by, surprise, NON ASIAN BUSINESSES SERVICING THE MOTION PICTURE INDUSTRY. Of course it appeared there first. It matters a lot for video. For stills it balloons your base ISO and cuts your DR. Even higher readout speeds cut into DR (R5 vs R5ii, which is not a Canon problem, you see it everywhere readout is prioritized).The amount of bitching from nophotos is astonishing. Photographers have never had it so good. My 2015 5Ds retired 6x9 and delivers stunning detail, shot after shot, with no Bayer artifacts or other bullshit. It's panned for DR yet I never seem to run into a problem ETTR RAW, and also for high ISO yet ISO 3200 is fucking gorgeous and good for at least 36" prints, if not more. My R6? It's a mother fucking night vision device, literally. If SHTF I could use it to catch a target trying to approach my location. Not to mention it delivers video with better IQ than cine 35mm.Contrast this with the film days when you needed 4x5 to hide image structure (i.e. grain), anything above ISO 400 was crap, and the only reason we accepted cine 35mm was because the image was moving and Hollywood flooded the scene with light even in "nighttime" scenes.
>>4382909>there is nothing wrong with cameras being lower tech than phonesEveryone without a press contract is seeing a slow death via a shrinking market. No, none of japans inability to progress is acceptable. >nobody uses cameras to convert rawsBecause they are awful at it. Phones are not. >its not worth itMr matsumoto oldofakku, please take a replicon vaccine and die before your imaging division is shuttered. RGBW is significantly betteer. Non asian businesses are selling 12k RGBW sensors with 16 stops of DR. In APS-C. You are coping with 14 stop 6k-9k bayer sensors in FF. Japanese innovation is nonexistent and they have not improved image capture since 2013. Apple bought quantumfilm in that time and the 15 pro max beat micro four thirds with a relatively microscopic sensor even in proraw. Every company without a getty/ap/etc contract is watching their camera division die because japs wont and cant innovate. >eyes are bayer now rgbwI took the requisite classes to say: no, retard. Rods are used heavily in daylight image processing. They are the majority of photoreceptors. Cones are 40x less numerous than rods!
>>4382912Extreme skill issue.
>>4382912>anti innovation cuck is the same fucktard that thinks a 50mp bayer dslr with apsc dr based on an arbitrary image structure copeSo, an 80mp MFDB resolved moire and turned 8 into B when drum scanned 6x7 was resolving lower acutance detail and was not turning 8s into Bs or flattening 9s. You said this was because line charts are special and then posted another line chart that you just scanned really poorly. You then cropped a 750mp 6x9 MILC scan twice as deep and compared it to upscaled 50mp bayer so it could win, and then said “well i can see grain it doesnt count” while the digital image was blurry as fuck with false detail (9LALLED BE/\N)Did you get tired of losing that argument and decide to start defending the japs inability to innovate? >Bro its fine>just pay $4500 for a camera with a worse back screen and less battery power than your phone>be forced to process raws on a better computer because camera processing is stuck in 2008 its fine its fine…Yeah no. Japanese camera industry is being murdered and everyone is laughing at them as they go down.
If trump forces nikon to keep RED in the US and give some control to americans it could very well kill sony. Just because sony and canon have been rehashing the same tech for 10 years while RED has been designing actual new sensors.
>>4382914>>there is nothing wrong with cameras being lower tech than phonesThe tech is on your desktop. ILC buyers want flexible, neutral RAWs ooc.>Everyone without a press contract is seeing a slow death via a shrinking market.Which has nothing to do with computation photography and everything to do with:- The death of the P&S to SLR pipeline.- People being completely satisfied with DSLRs and lenses from the last decade.>Because they are awful at it.

But this time you're wrong about something with consequences. No one gave a single fuck about how high resolution MF film was when it died because almost no MF film gear is up to the task of resolving those absurd resolutions, just a minority of high end studio-centric eurotrash. But people do give a fuck that their iPhone has more dynamic range than a $4500 cannot POS R/SNOY.Just give up on arguing since all you do is suck canon's 3 incher.Western innovation > Slant eyed pedos.

It had less fine detail. In the headlight test, digital lost yet again.>LOL WUT?No, film won. I'm sure you're aware of this, since an 80mp mfdb not resolving fine details as well as 6x7 color film is pretty damning. Even on low contrast shadowed areas like parkin's scene with the cameras, the film resolved readable text when 80mp bayer was generating unreadable garbage. All the digital did better was look less grainy and have more shadow DR and blown highlights instead of infinite highlights and voided shadows.>In every comparison digital has been sharper, and there's no false detail. Which is why you could never circle in red the detail you claim to be false.No, it has been consistently lower resolution with higher acutance. You're not very smart so you don't know what these terms actually mean. I see you are also defending camera screens being lower resolution than cheap chinese smartphones, and processing hardware being even further behind, because "i can editit on my compooter". Are you not aware that you are editing it on your compooter because the hardware in your $5000 camera is too weak to even demosaic the raws properly? If your IQ had a whole 3 digits to it, maybe you would be.
>>4382935Why would anyone waste their time slapping a negative under a camera when tim parkin already did the test that hurt your ego so badly? AnywaysYou are as inferior to people with fully functioning brains as rehashed, 11 year old chink shit sensors made by pedo slants are to glorious red/blackmagicdesign cine sensors. The fact is, the japanese are inferior to white people. They have a very narrow IQ distribution with almost no genius level intellects, low levels of individualism, and extremely low levels of creativity. Before the US literally conquered them, child porn was sold in the streets and they were an early industrial fishing island. They still have strong indicators of being an inferior people such as not having any animal protection laws whatsoever and actually having a domestic bestiality industry. Yes, raping animals is a legal hobby in japan. So is filming it, watching those films, and selling them. They also still have open-air broad daylight underage prostitution that the police are supposed to stop, but actually patronize, and one of the largest and most neglected illegal CP markets on earth. They are not the people that should have been trusted with the future of digital imaging. They are a nation of third world coomers with slightly above average IQs sufficient for replicating old western technology for cheap.They are the people that jewish importers handed the camera industry to because in the early and mid 20th century, their labor was dirt cheap and even today they force people to work unpaid overtime including 7 day weeks to keep costs down. Not the people who could actually, ever, make better cameras.That has always been white people, jews, and a select few asians that probably have a white or jewish grandparent.

>>4382936>A map is a line chart.Holy fucking cope.>The objects were different sizes in the frame. Specifically, the 5ds raws test tire was twice as large.Another lie. There's no where near a 2x difference, a Corvette tire is larger IRL than a Bug tire, and we're judging on things like lettering on the tire and surface texture. It's not perfectly matched, but it yields the same results as the headlights (Bug headlight larger) and the maps (perfectly matched).>No, film won.Dude, you have mental health issues. I enjoying debating too much and end up wasting time doing it, but you are just off the chart mental. You come up with a cope and an excuse for any and all contradictory evidence while clinging to a fucking line chart ignoring that film's resolution can be twice as high on high contrast charts, and film still didn't win.Waiting for your cope that a 16 stop apsc sensor is really 12.4-13.4 stops (depending on threshold), and only when downscaling 12k to 4k. Who told you that it was 16 stops? BlackMagic's own page only claims 14.
a pple began prototyping ARM macs in 2011 and btfo’d windont in 2020 and outperforming everything but PC-spec’d gaming bricks. Apple bought prototype stage quantumfilm sensors in 2017. Current bayer CMOS tech has until 2027 to improve. Better start working on rgbw tojo. 12 stops of DR, at ISO 800, on APS-C, is unheard of in japan. CMOS has room to grow. Better get to it. Also, an 80mp drum scan of 6x7 provia outresolves an 80mp MFDB and 6x9 can be scanned up to 750mp before running out of detail even in a low contrast photo of a black object. A more favorable subject could very well provide a one gigapixel image.>bbbut u can see grainAI will remove it for you dont worry. Just like AI invented your whole image from a bayer array.
>>4382958>uh, the tire was bigger irlnigger if you use tires to test resolution they need to be the same size in the frame. and be the same tire. >take frame filling photo of cat on 24mp>take five steps back for 100mp>”fuji medium format? more like crap.”
>>4382962But if 100mp’s subject is a midget cat its fair because the cat is smaller IRL! t. low iq
>>4382954So they're claiming 16 stops for a FULL FRAME sensor. That's good if true but not a huge jump over ICLs, and maybe not a jump at all. They claim 14 for their apsc sensor but it's really 12.4-13.4 (threshold), and that's after downscaling. So it's entirely possible that when tested the FF sensor won't be any better than the FF sensors out of Japan.All of this because Tim Parkin's #1 fan confused marketing claims. The Japanese camera market is dying because slant eye racist rants and it's the end of the world, IT REALLY MATTERS GUYS, and he doesn't even have the right fucking sensor.Holy shit...that's enough Internet for one day.
>>438295814 base ISO stops on a super 35 sensor is one more stop of dynamic range than you can get with a canon r5ii or r1.
>>4382965Anon, you need to come back down to reality6x7 outresolves FF digital easilyBM and RED are making sensors that gather entire extra stops - one stop is twice as much light. 14 stop APSC is massive. 12 stops at ISO 800 on APSC is massive. Old snoyslop apsc tech gets 10 stops at ISO 800. Canon is even worse and fakes it with noise reduction. You cant even downscale because japanese s35s top out around 6k. The r7 could do better but it has basically no dynamic range to begin with. And Canon just released a $4500 camera that has one less stop of dynamic range than a nikon DSLR from the 2010s. A storm is coming. A quantumfilm iphone that will outresolve and out-DR most full frame cameras. And you’re here defending a FF with APSC dynamic range. Lol. I hope you can sell your gear fast enough.
>>4382960So now the claim has changed...>no u don't understand 12 stops at ISO 800 apsc UNHEARD OFA 2017 Nikon D7500 hits 12ev at ISO 800 (DxO Print Threshold).>>4382962>surface texture changes with sizeDo you also believe that thread size changes when you buy a bigger shirt?
>>4382969>dxo printYou misrepresent everything. DXOPrint is 8mp. If you cant deliver 12 stops at ISO 800 in 8k video, shut up please. 8k. That’s 36mp.Then again, 6x7 outresolves an 80mp camera and you say it doesnt count because your high contrast lines are different (scanned poorly, shot worse)
>>4382966>14 base ISO stops on a super 35 sensor is one more stop of dynamic range than you can get with a canon r5ii or r1.The R5 tests to 14.6 at DxO, the BM 12k apsc sensor tests to 13.4 noisy stops, 12.4 clean.>>4382968>14 stops apsc is MASSIVE>12 stops apsc ISO 800 is MASSIVED7500 from 2017 hits 14 at base ISO, 12 at ISO 800, and that's without downscaling to 4k.Are you OK man?

>>4382969Wow. You are actually low iq.Do you really not understand thisIf something is larger in the frame, it will have more detail than something that is smaller in the frameAnd your digishit still lost that one hard. 0 fine detail resolved. But the low iq experience includes blindness…
>>4382972>force noise reduction in raws>dynamic range extrapolated from noise goes up>shadow recovery reveals the lie - 1 less stop of DRCannot POS RLess DR than a s35 camcorder

>>4382976>>d7500 has the same dr as a d850D850 tests to something like 14.7 base.>but muh ISO stops!!!We're not talking about ISOs high enough for shot noise to swamp the result.
>>4382978And yet even with a huge framing advantage, and a huge dynamic range advantage (fully lit grey tire on digital vs barely lit black tire on film) 50mp digital still got steamrolled by 6x9. The headlights were a little better framed but still brutalAnd why wouldnt it, 6x7 beat 80mp digital already. Mere 35mm can easily match a d750 or d810. Medium format is in the hundreds of megapixels.
>>4382982It amazes me that people cannot see this fact.
>>4382982All settled science. And, red and bmd are making s35 sensors with more dynamic range than snoy and cannot, due in no small part to RGBW’s massive signal to noise ratio advantage over dated bayer and xtranny.
>>4382982>>4382983>>4382984Now comes the samefagging. Tell us again about 16ev apsc sensors.
>>4382984ackshually red does it with flat out better sensors, blackmagic leans on RGBWtoo bad nikon fucking killed red so they could start adding raw video in 2 more weeks. all that awesome sensor r&d is just fucking gone.
Even a dog could see that 6x9 is like, 200mp. nobody cares about it because you need top tier glass (no longer made for most bodies), a transverse transport rangefinder body (no longer made) or monorail and mf back, and to scan it with a 200mp camera that can just directly replace the film and do the exact same thing with less grain. A 50mp DSLR aint cutting it except to be near-ish to 645 but if a phase one xt is in your budget you’re close enough to finally replace 6x9
>>4382987too bad we can't see a photo of it, jealous of the dog
>>4382988You have actually seen it but you said it didnt count because you could also see grain (autism)I recommend buying a gfx100sii because you were never going to scan anything that big anyways, and finally being done coping with low end canon stuff. Or just take the L (literally and figuratively) and leave because you never even used all 50mp on your low end canon junk. In any case I also agree that bayer is dated and RGBW is overdue. There is a lot wrong with RGGB.
>no rgbw sensors>organic sensors dead in the water>foveon dead in the water>only camera that can read out both gain stages at once for an extra stop of shadow recovery is a $2000 micro fool turds>dynamic range getting worse because its the cheapest way to make old sensors faster, dying industry cant afford new sensors, fanboys coping with noise derived dxo scores and forced raw noise reduction>screens worse than a motorola droid>evfs not much better>only brand to provide anything close to raw clipping warnings without uniWB (unusable on most mirrorless) is sony>cant shoot 10 bit stills and expect quality, only poorly done 8 bit jpegs and DIY raws>phone integration still a joke, buggy apps and dropped connections>no 5g or 4g on cameras>gps came and went, cheaper to ask people to use a buggy phone app>everything that isn’t a canon or sony has worse autofocus than a phone so you’d just use the phone anyways>prices still in the thousands:/Why not just shoot film?
>>4382992>>4382989This.
>>4382989>nophoto>"you've actually seen it"You realize that multiple people are calling you out on your bullshit, right? Can we help you find a doctor?
>>4382996sorry about your dementia man
>>4382998If we create a digital versus film thread, will you stay there?
>>4383002you cant contain the truth. what if you didnt repost your wrong arguments whenever films superior resolution is mentioned?
>>4382996I've counted 10 unique posters that are disagreeing with you.
>>4383003>>4383005>i've samefagged 10x>no i won't stay in a containment threadPitty.
>>4382998I think it may actually be schizophrenia. Lmao.
>>4383007>i have a meltdown and repost disproven line charts because i cant handle that my ancient film maps were just poorly donelol kthe funniest part is you had people essentially agreeing with you in a way, saying that film is too light hungry and too finnicky, gimped by old gear…which is why your maps werent as high resolution as the film but a slightly more autistic boomer got more resolution out of it on similar subjects (documents and camera gear)
>>4383012>map scan no good because a car drove by during scanning>which i of course can't prove, but it must be truePeak COPE nophoto
>>4383022>I rely on schizo tier excuses because that's all I have.
>>4383022more likely you missed focus a little, stopped down way too much following film era logic (durr diffraction blur happens later because im enlarging it less durr) that doesnt hold up on HR scans, or werent wise to mirror slap. followed by shitty scans (no, drums arent magic). medium format gear has the resolution of a $40k mirrorless, not the refinement and ease of one.
>>4383030This. He has clearly demonstrated that he lacks the skill to use a camera to its fullest potential, especially a film camera.
>>4383033Most film cameras can’t even meet the standards of superior american imaging technology. 1/500 leaf shutter? Cool trick for flash but it’s not enough to freeze motion at MF resolutions. SLRs? Shake too much. Hasselblad/bronica? Film creasers.
>>4382933So why have these revolutionary new sensors not taken over the industry?
>>4383057These revolutionary sensors are made by direct competitors to the japanese and all of them have captive markets with higher standards and fatter wallets than “photographers”. Essentially you are getting what you deserve.
>>4383059No reason to care then lol
>>4383076Nikon bought red cinema and then proceeded to downgrade the z6 line with a bullshit half stacked snoy chip instead of leveraging their supposed access to a superior r&d team and fab (compared to snoy). Where did the baller cinema sensors go? Still with red? Nikon no touchy?
>>4383077nice sensors are probably too expensive for the funny hat man of the east. snoysensors are definitely cheaper. probably the cheapest.
what fast 50 for sony that is sub 500 used?Do I go 7Artisan 1.05 for cheap or is it too soft? Does it have genuine character like an old Nikon 50 1.2?Do I go Nonikkor 50 1.2?Do I go Zeiss 55 1.8? Laowa 45 1.2? Voigtlander 50 2.0?
>>4383084> 7Artisan 1.05 for cheap or is it too soft?heckin' soft until like f/2, more like f/4. Pretty much all chingchong lenses wider than f/2 need to stop down to f/2 to regain any optical clarity.
>>4383088any opinion on this?https://www.artralab.hk/products/artra-lab-nonikkor-50mm-f1-2-nocty-lenses
>>4383090>$617Jesus fuck. At first I thought it was at least an electronically coupled lens with autofocus and whatnot but nope. I think you're better off just getting the TTartisan 50mm f/1.2 if that's the specs you want. It's still soft in the corners until f/2, but it's $100 USD
>>4383030>you you youI didn't produce the map sample. You've been told this, retard, but you have to keep lying in order to keep coping.>>4383030>more likely you missed focus a little, stopped down way too much following film era logicThe sample is obviously free from focus and diffraction issues. I know you don't realize this because you're a nocamera nophoto, but those issues would be plainly visible if they were there.>or werent wise to mirror slap. Mirror slap would also be obvious. Sorry, it's a sharp, high quality scan. About the best you can expect from 6x9 Velvia 50, as anyone who actually owns film cameras and has actually paid for high end scanning services could tell you. You just don't like the results.More importantly, it shows the same exact result as every other comparison. Did everyone miss focus? Forget mirror lockup? Did HXY do this in a sample shot intended to show off the highest resolution scanning service in the world? Really? Did your Reddit Fuji scanner also make these mistakes? It's telling that I can grab multiple samples from multiple people and easily find RAWs in my own collection to beat them, but you cannot find a single example of a better film sample. You tried with Reddit Fuji scanner, and still lost. And of course there's nothing in your collection, because you have nophoto.Your 16 stop apsc sensor (LOL!) and samefagging illustrate your obvious mental issues. You will make excuses and copes for any and all evidence which prove you dead wrong, while offering no evidence of your own and simply begging the question when asked.Seriously, seek help.
>>4383107>illustrate your obvious mental issues. You will make excuses and copes for any and all evidence which prove you dead wrong, while offering no evidence of your own and simply begging the question when asked.>Seriously, seek help.Peak projection from a true nophoto. Seriously, seek help.
>>4383107So much this.
>>4383108What was that? No evidence? I accept your concession, both on film v digital and on BlackMagic sensor DR. Thanks for playing.
>>4383107>>4383110This post lacks evidence, mental clarity, any semblance of intelligence, and to top it off it scientifically demonstrates extreme mental illness.You also fell for my trap card, bitch. >>4382733 AND the copied post for evidence >>4382723. You are a loser and I am a winner. The science has been settled. Try a little harder next time. That was way too easy.
Is 24mm a good focal length for shooting pictures of drunk people in bars and clubs?I apologize for my ignorance, this is my first lens purchase after the 35mm lens that came with my camera
>>4383250Should be. You'll need to get up in their faces and use a flash if you don't get one with a very wide aperture.
>>4383160>has never posted evidence in over 9,000 posts>reee's about all the evidence posted>"this post lacks evidence"Entertaining.
Gearfags i seek your wisdomi recently bought a camerabag and found an EF->M42 adapter in the bottomQRD on M42 mount & lenses?
>>4383104that's an aps-c lens you linked. The Nonikkor is FF. The FF 7Artisan 50 f1.05 is about the same price, $350. I'm not sure where you're getting $617 from, must not be USD? $350 for a 50 1.2 prime is reasonable given that that's what the vintage Nikkor still goes for.
>>4383359>Nonikkor is FFWhoops>not sure where you're getting $617 fromInteresting, it may have auto converted to AUD on the site, which would be about right.New information considered, it's much less of a joke. Still probably baby soft in the corners just for the fact that it's such a bright lens.>>4383343M42 is a screw mount system found on many older kinds of film bodies. Confusingly, there's also L42 and M39 for rangefinders and a lot of them can look similar. Optics from this era are not sufficent for modern cameras; pretty much any M42 lens you buy will be soft and rife with abberations and distoriton. That look might work well for you, and it's certainly fun to mess around with vintage lenses.
how do i choose between a a7iv and a7rv? or should i wait for the next release?
>>4383250there's no reason you couldn't just use the 35mm for that though, it's probably also at least 1 stop faster than the 24mm.
>want to shoot videos>must be a full-frame camera>non-negotiable main criteria is excellent low-light capabilityBefore I buy the A7sIII is there anything else on the market that has similar performance in low light ?I shot and gearfagged for 15 years and I've been out of the game for over 10 years after my gear got stolen, time to get back in, but hoooooooo boy is there a lot to catch up with. Point me towards a reasonable direction, anons
>>4383773fx3 for better resistance to overheating, ZV-E1 for faster autofocus and some other neat features but less resistance to overheating. A7sIII has the best viewfinder. All use the same sensor.
>>4383744bump
>>4383782Hey, film won.
Just got stood up trying to sell my Z50 + 2 Kit Lenses for $700Fuck this shit I'm just gonna go to Adorama on Thursday I get it why no one sells used cameras anymore big waste of time
>>4383343Helios.
>>4380502Hey gearfags, quick theoretical question: Would you do a week and a half (7 working days) of demanding physical work in a hot and dirty environment for a relatively compact fool frame video focused camera + a 28-70 zoom lens that covers everything you intend to shoot? Would your decision change if in this theoretical scenario you were a hobbyist with ADD who has an "idea" and really wants to make a "project" but will in all likelyhood use the fucking thing for like two months and then put it in a drawer and forget it ever existed. Asking for a friend!
>>4383773>videoS5 iix, you'll thank yourself. Or if you absolutely must go snoy, get the fx3
is the a7rv that much better over the a7cr? the latter is on sale and I am autismo about megapickles
