I would like a small, retro style camera for hobbyist / snap shitting type photography. Image quality is important to me, but not the end all, be all. I do not want a full frame type camera such as the ZF. I already have a D850, and actually owned a ZF for several months, before getting rid of it as the lack of grip and overall hugeness made it very unfun to walk around and shoot with. Between the OM-5 and some Fuji cam, which is the best choice?
>>
>>4486018
Stop being 4chan-brained. Be normal. Get a sony a7c and a 35mm f2.8.
>>
If you want small, retro, discreet, full physical controls, and IQ that's a clear step above a smartphone, nothing beats the Olly Pen e-p7 with a panny 20 (40mm equiv). Get one like this that's already located stateside to beat the Donny tax.

https://www.ebay.com/itm/227104719248
>>
>>4486020
any reason to prefer this over the oly for example? I'm a hobbyist so I don't really care about marginal iq gains. The sony seems much larger, more expensive, and tbqh fugly
>>
>>4486021

I love the look of that cam... will investigate

Its anything but marginal. The olympus is essentially stuck at iso 1000 and cant use an autofocus lens faster than f3 unless spending sony money… then it can use a whopping f2.4. People will say 800 but the oly sensors are actually less sensitive and need more exposure at 200 than a sony iso 800.

>>4486024
So some fat tard from reddit scraped the seal off another model… who cares. You repost this and others a lot. Who pays you? I think i know who else you are

Kill phrase: fujifilm doesnt make good cameras. shooting raw is easier and faster.

Now reply.
>>
>>4486026
As I mentioned, I have a D850 already, so I am accustomed to FF performance already, I don't necessarily think that the Sony is going to outperform my nikon if I want to go FF... I don't really shoot at wider apertures than f/5.6-f/8 anyways, which is why I'm not concerned about going to a crop sensor. The ISO issue is a little more relevant, but I assume that modern software can mitigate this...?
>>
>>4486018
I would just go back to the Zf and get a grip

Are you a small person with short hands or a woman?
>>
>>4486018
OM has really nice colours sooc, but OM-5 is way to small for my hands...
I own a OM-3 + OM 20mm 1.4 + Lumix 35-100 2.8 and I use it way more than my Canon EOS R.

>>4486028
more to whit, the combo you just described is larger and heavier than my D850 and a worse camera setup in every way

Your best choice is to stop shitting up the catalog and fuck off to the gear thread faggot.
>>
>>4486027
Software can not add info the sensor couldnt record. ISO 100 is ISO 100, and you can use that shit everywhere, every day.

Micro four thirds is pointless unless pick one
>using long macro lenses or bird zooms for funsies
>being /p/ brained and memeing yourself into thinking the only brand that sells anywhere near as many cameras as canon is somehow super shit (its clearly not, but the existence of the $1000 used a7c makes the om-5 totally fucking useless so it has to be for some terminally online fanboys here)
>being super poor so its the only way to get a decent modern QOL mirrorless instead of a canon m50
>>
>>4486018
does this thing take old OM mount Zuiko glass?
>>
>>4486040
this is objectively untrue though? Equivalent focal length lenses for m43 and apsc can be tiny compared to ff lenses especially modern "optically perfect" ones. Mirrorless ff lenses have this insane case of bloat, even old dslr lenses are minuscule in comparison and have comparable IQ in many cases
>>
>>4486037
(you)
>>
>>4486040

i personally dont like the a7c because ff glass is huge and expensive

the only way ff glass is small is if you're using a film era prime

>>4486018

why not pick up a z30 or z50ii, the z dx 16-50 kit lens is okay and a nice little pancake so its surprisingly portable
>>
>>4486048
actually had a z50ii, it's huge, as big as a z6. I don't like that the z30 lacks an evf. Is there a particular advantage of the APS-C over m43? I'm leaning towards the oly because I like how it looks and it seems like the glass is tiny, sharp, and gets great reviews
>>
>>4486048
Sony and canon have the only normal sized lenses that arent plastic junk like the nikon small primes. Canon even has the only real FF pancake.

The samyang and zeiss 35mm f2.8 lenses are both smaller than most film lenses and about the same size as the nikkor z pancake with its hood (actually the other half of the lens body, containing the filter threads) and as far as i know sony is the only worthwhile* ff mount with a small portrait lens (sigma 90mm f2.8)

*l mount would be worthwhile if the s9 werent dedicated to being absolutely worse than the a7c to keep it off the leica Qs toes
>>
>>4486050
m43 users are like ken rockwell. they call everything sharp when nothing is.

The 17mm f1.8 (35mm f3.6) for example is pretty mediocre but they call it tack sharp. the 25mm and 45mm are actually sharp. but its a bunch of f3.6 primes, on cameras that are basically stuck at iso 1000 at their lowest setting. it can get gross quick and not because of muh bokeh.
>>
>>4486052
I already said previously that I never shoot below f/5.6 so f/3.6 is already way faster than I need. I did note the lack of a good 35mm equiv in the m43 ecosystem though.....
>>
>>4486051
plastic junk is small and light though, im coming from all-metal film era lenses and its fucking gay how heavy it is. if you're dropping and banging lenses around hard enough the plastic is a issue you're probably decentering the glass elements

>>4486050

larger sensor = better low light and iq

iirc the oly glass doesn't get sharp until you pay a decent amount

if you didnt like the z50ii that's fine, i was cross shopping the z30 and om5 and they fit damn near the same in my pockets at the camera store, the nikon has smaller lenses while the oly lens sticks out a bit unless you do a ez lens which sucks optically. i'm fine without a evf.
>>
>>4486054
I did like the kit lens a lot for the z aps-c but there are either no or only one prime, you either rock the kit lens or basically go fuck yourself in the nikon ecosystem
>>
>>4486053
Lenses improve the more they’re stopped down. A faster lens doesnt need to rely on as much color/contrast sapping, DOF falloff weirdening corrections to look good at f5.6. Hence why an m43 "f3.6" can often be larger than an FF f2.8 and m43 is very much the mirrorless look (flat).

Classic photos looked better because undercorrected lenses clean up better stopped down and dont need shit for editing.

OM-5: Better AF, better weather sealing, RAW pro capture, long exposure helpers (live time, live comp), star auto focus, insane IBIS

Fuji: More expensive, AF not that great, IBIS only on premium bodies, questionable weather sealing (again only premium bodies), the smaller cams (OM5 sized) dont have IBIS and weather sealing

Image quality wise they don't differ that much. Both are baby sensor so you get noise no matter what. But for low noise you got a real Nikon camera so you're covered

Fuji is very over-priced right now. At 50% of the price they sell at they would make more sense

I'm same height/weight OP and I too had the Zf. I found it extremely annoying to take with me just for fun shooting. It was OK for dedicated photo stuff but then again I'd get a proper gripped plastic blob body like the Z5II for that. I sold my Zf and got an OM-5 for the fun EDC stuff
I still have my Z glass and a Z6II for when I need best image quality. But for everything else I have the OM-5 and it sparks joy

there is the 17mm f1.2 from olympus - but that's the same weight, size and price as the Z 35mm 1.8S lol. (and I like the Z rendering way better)
don't get me wrong - I shoot m43 - but it's strictly a fun system. not a primary system when you need image quality. m43 tards are delusional when they think their shitty OM1.2 can replace a Z8, R6, etc.
Don't spend too much money on m43. Dont get the retarded oversized and overprized """pro""" lenses. For that weight/price you can get a FF lens and be better off
But absolutely get a small m43 body and the small lenses. They're fun and a joy to take with you.

The a7c is the same size as the om5.

The sony 40mm f2.5 is smaller than the om 20mm f1.4 (40mm f2.8).

>>
>>4486078
he doesnt sound like hes melting down he sounds like hes saying theyre fun to use and great as a second camera but not a serious camera system

i personally dont like how expensive om5s are still. $7-800 seems to be the floor for them and the lenses are surprisingly pricey and more importantly bulky...if they were cheaper i'd pick one up but im waiting for a decent nikon z30 refurb ($380 w/16-50 lens). 20mm f1.7 lumix is like $300 which isn't horrible

>>4486055
yeah not gonna lie that's my biggest problem with the z dx cameras, but that said if its your second camera you already have a d850 which shouldnt be too bad to lug around with a prime.

all the small sensor cameras (m43/apsc) have pretty big primes anyways usually.

yeah, but everything is expensive nowadays. you cant find anything modern below $1000 new. used prices are even more retarded. just look at what a gx9 will fetch you. essentially ewaste still going for $700
the bulky m43 lenses are those pro lenses I'd never buy. they're as big and pricey as their full frame equivalents. so I wouldn't touch those. the cheap 20mm f1.7 is more like the lens I'd get for my fun edc m43 camera. I personally prefer the 17mm f1.8 but also have the 15mm f1.7 - both small and the optical quality is reasonable for what they're intended for
nikon z dx has its issues. i looked into it but meh ... there's like a handful of lenses that aren't full frame. i don't think there's even a 50mm ff equivalent dx prime atm

The thing with this purchase is, I'm not worried about achieving the ultimate image quality possible. I already have a ff camera which is objectively better in every regard than the sony recommended as far as IQ goes. I was looking for something small, not incredibly expensive, and with small lenses, which I would be more likely to just carry around day to day than the D850. I did go ahead and pull the trigger on the oly, I'll post my impressions here when it arrives. For reference, I have owned Nikon z6ii, z50ii, and any number of DSLRs including the d850 I currently have. I'll try to do an objective comparison between the IQ i'm used to seeing and the oly. If I don't like it I'll just return it but we shall see.
>>
>>4486189
its not any smaller or cheaper than a sony. just worse. go even tinier. buy a ricoh griiix.
>>
>>4486195
Considered it, but there's lots of things about the ricoh that I don't like. Shitty autofocus, no evf, shitty battery life, not interchangable lens, dusty sensor, hella expensive, etc.

I picked up an om-5 for appx 600 usd on a black friday deal with their 25mm and 45mm lenses. These lenses appear tiny, there simply isn't anything in the FF ecosystem to match them that I know of.

I can tell this is your second year being "seriously" into photography.

The acceptable focal lengths from wide to normal are:

>>
>>4486267
50mm is ubiquitous but has its virtues. 28 and 35 belong in the same trash can. Wide but not wide enough to be interesting. Always talking in equivalent terms here of course, on APS-C they become interesting as they become 45 and 80 equivalents.

This is some intermediate-level autism. You are now no longer a beginner.

>>4486270
I unfortunately agree with cANON which pains me, but he's right. Anything from 28-70 is pretty blah in terms of what the focal length is doing for you; not that good photos cant be taken with them per se, but that there's nothing interesting about them that makes them stand out.
70mm~ to 200mm give you some nice telephoto compression without being bird-grade distances away, and 24mm and wider is where interesting perspectives can be forced, or the photo puts the viewer in the scene itself. Both useful.

Regardless, if what makes or breaks your photography is the focal length you're given you're not a very good photog. You should be able to make anything work theoretically.
>>
>>4486272
That just sounds like you don't know how to take interesting photos at normal focal lengths
If you have to rely on wide or tele to make interesting photos, you probably have to lots or room to grow
If you think 28-70 is a boring zone, that is also some intermediate - level autism
>>
>>4486267
Wrong.
Wide: 14, 18, and 24 only if architectural.
Normal: 35 or 85
Long: 600+, and you should need a cart to wheel it around.

It's almost like focal length alone, a photo does not make. The important part is the subject, lighting, and composition. The thing is show me ONE photo you've taken inside this range that would stand out among a photobook of your peers. It's not impossible per se, but competing with every phone within the 24-35mm range, and every camera made in the last 120 years within the 40-80mm range means there's a whole lot of people with a whole lot more talent than you or I in this weight-class.

Every photo there (except a few I didnt care for but not the point) is technically good. Great even. Well done. I forgot about every single one in about a third of a second after closing them. Every single photo looks like it would fit decently well in a wallpaper competition or a curated instagram page. Unsarcastically, nice, and well done. I still forgot about them all basically instantly, and so would literally anyone else other than yourself.

And the reason they're all so forgettable, is because your subjects are rocks leaves and skies. I like a good landscape photo, but I don't give a fuck about other peoples' landscape photos because there's nothing to them. There's no substance. Nothing special or eye catching. You spent money on the gear then read about the techniques needed. You bought the ND filter, you bought the tripod, you bought the wide aperture lens.

Don't confuse my sardonic demeanor as trying to put you down or talk you out of it, but there's just plainly nothing special about your photos.

So you assign quality value to a focal length based on a lens’s popularity rather than its actual quality. The lack of critical thinking on this image board never ceases to amaze me. Besides, your claims are factually incorrect.

>50mm. Oh, the default smartphone focal length. Very patrician.

The default kit lens in film times, are we still living in the film times? Welcome to the year 2025, please enjoy your short stay.

>28mm. Oh, the default smartphone focal length. Very patrician.

The default smartphone focal length is 26 mm, not 28 mm.

You still need to explain why the popularity of a focal length supposedly makes it bad and you’ve failed to do that. The actual problem with the 35 mm focal length is that it’s boring, sterile, and lacks any real character. Perfect choice of a focal length for anyone who is dead inside. I rather live my life fully and that is why 28 mm is a good focal length. I can get close to my photography subjects and actually connect with them to the surrounding life in a way that 35 mm fails to do.

I just got the om5.2 because I dont give a fuck about the fl3 and the winter cashback + 5 year extended warranty was too good to pass up. my new om5.2 with 5 years warranty cost in the end (got my cashback yesterday) only 100 euros more than a good condition used om5.1 - so it was a nobrainer to get that.
were it not for the cashback I would have gotten a mark 1 but I guess I lucked out :3

this is one of the oddest things about the equivalency thing... Fx.x is fx.x on ANY SENSOR. The different DOF on each sensor is a FEATURE, not a bug that needs to be corrected which is the assumption that underlies the idea that 17 f.14 = 35 2.8
>>
>>4487170
>>4487167
>photo class dropouts
F/ is a ratio. A 35mm f2.8 and 17.5mm f1.4 have the SAME aperture size -12.5mm. A 16mm f1.4 has a little more DOF because its an 11.4mm aperture but also a wider fov like a 32mm f2.8.
So basically that shows a bigger lens with a smaller aperture.

A 50mm f2 has a 25mm hole on any sensor. A 100mm f4 has a 25mm hole on any sensor. A 50mm f2 on the turd format has the same FOV (ish - its 4:3) and same DOF (because same aperture) as a 100mm f4 on FF.

This is related to why m43 does not get free DOF and is still diffraction limited at f5.6 (~=f11), but thats the size of the airy disk (glow around pinhole) vs the size of the tiny pixels.

>>
>>4487199
Oh okay, you cant afford a panasonic. Make it f8 for the blurry 20mp. f5.6/f11 is the last stop for the slightly higher res cameras because their pixels are smaller.

An f8 setting on an m43 camera has the same aperture size as an equivalent lens set to f16 on an FF camera. 25mm/8 = 3.1. 50/16 = 3.1. The DOF is the same. The ratio of the airy disc and pixel size stays effectively the same although the math is more complicated. This is math. You cant word your way around it.

M43 does not have free DOF or diffraction free shooting. It might have such soft lenses (not hard, tiny pixels need lenses with tinier issues) that stopping down past the diffraction limit still improves IQ, because the aberrations are worse (bigger) than the diffraction blur. This last part is common and you cant afford the nice m43 lenses hence your confusion.

>>4487202
Fx.x is the focal length divided by the apparent aperture.

A 35mm f2.8 and 17.5mm f1.4 have the same aperture.

A 20mp FF shooting at f16 and a 20mp 4/3 shooting at f8 have the same diffraction blur.

Go back to school.

The f/ratio is a ratio. If you don't understand what that word means then just admit it. And if you don't understand why it being a *ratio* is important versus total aperture size then you can't be helped.
>>4487206
>your beloved 8 pentillion MP snoy suffers from it worse than a M43 cam will
FF @ 24MP = 6um
FF @ 45MP = 4.39um
APS-C @ 24MP = 3.93um
FF @ 61MP = 3.79um
M43 @ 20MP (4:3) = 3.35um

At least try to get some facts straight before blindly flinging shit. Your super cope format would need something like a 80MP FF camera to compete against before actually winning out in diffraction. AND that's ignoring literally everything else the format does worse.


You M43 shills are either paid or hobbyists with buyer's remorse. You can't argue against how physics works.
>>
>>4487209
Anon you retard. The gx1 is 16mp and you can see it get softer at f11 where it should (because its 16mp). A theoretical 16mp FF would diffract at f22. The 24-70 f4 za is also literally the worst standard zoom ever made and no one uses that shit (no one uses a giant 24-200 f8 either desu)

16mp is going to be lower res vs an equally good lens on 36mp regardless of diffraction why do you even compare these

i see why you think this "gotcha" works. i have actually consulted with jd vance AND elon musk last friday to figure out how this works over a few rounds of EDH so bear with me.

in the indian izzat system, if rajesh calls pajeet weak, pajeet can not say "no i am not" or "no, you are" because neither of those take away from the izzat points held by rajesh, and pajeet has just lost his own izzats. rajesh has to be insulted, not contradicted. so if pajeet tells rajesh "but you are weaker than sanjay", rajesh loses the izzat he won from pajeet (pajeet does not get his back) thus he fails to escape his caste and gain the privilege of using toilet paper. it seems rajesh and pajeet are losers because both their izzat scores went down. but in indian culture, a jeet can still win by dragging someone down with him.

>>
>>4487211
As usual this is just a lot of dishonest garbage from someone who just blindly hates a sensor size of all things.

As you point out even though the pana camera is “just” 16mp it has a higher pixel density than even a 60mp full frame cam. So the lens at hand is the equivalent of a ff lens showing no diffraction at f/22. This is pretty damn good lens performance. You then go on to claim that ALL good ff lenses will perform like this. That’s obviously bull, every ff shooter knows that above f/11 is the diffraction danger area. No ff shooter would dare f/22 unless it was with a macro lens.


I simply don’t know what you’re trying to prove with all your retarded jargon. It’s literally like a dunning Krueger thing. Will a m43 lens diffract? Yes obviously. Will cheaper or lower quality ones diffract around f5.6? Yes. Will nicer ones go to f11+ without showing signs of diffraction? Yes. Does this provide a marginal though noticeable performance enchantment over the diffraction characteristics of most ff lenses? Yes. Given the literal evidence that was presented itt and sans some schizo spergout do you have an actual argument against this?

what I like in the MK II over the MK I:
- the menu system (it's really more thought out)
- usb-c (it's not quick charge but it's power delivery so I can attach a power bank for long exposures)
- the new grip (it really makes a difference. I dropped my MK I all the time - my MK II not even once yet)

what I dont like:
- the semi transparent focus rectangles in the EVF
- the missing S-OVF mode

what I dont care about:
- missing fl3 support

now don't get me wrong: if you get a great deal on the MKI get that. if you have a MKI then don't get the MKII. but if your MKI got sold for bitcoin (like mine) and you want back into the infinite comfyness that is the m43 system then the MKII is a no-brainer. I got mine for a great black friday deal + 5 years warranty + 200 Euros cashback.

I imagine your wife was mad the few times you took a photo of her, it had nasty olympus colors, no real bokeh, and phone quality, and she was frustrated that you were wasting so much time and money on what is essentially an android phones camera stuck into a retro larp body - a teenagers toy. Used to obsessively take generic photos of twigs. And now you’re calling an underexposed photo of alcohol in a cuck shed your art.

I love watching gearfag snapshitters destroy their lives

She kicked you out because you cycled through a half dozen digishit cameras ranging from $500 to $1500 each and gambled on bitcoin to have a shot at purchasing an overpriced /p/ meme while spending hours trying to argue to 4chan that a smaller sensor was somehow better than a bigger one. HA. You fool! You destroyed your life trying to "own" the "fool framers". You lost so much money swapping cameras around, so much time trying to get /p/ to relieve your buyers remorse, and now you lost your wife. Should have stuck with your one good full frame camera instead of being a gearfag, gearfag! You never shoot anything but the inside of your house and street signs and literal twigs 5 minutes from it. Whats 100g to you, if you never climb mountains, you’re not wandering streets of brazil doing portraits of hobos? KEK

I will now go eat lunch with my wife who enjoys it when i take high quality photos of her massive rack with my massive sensor. Cya later cuck shed boy. And remember, if you just stuck with the perfectly functional camera you started with and actually did photogaphy (like portraits) you wouldn’t be drinking alone in a camper right now.

>The actual problem with the 35 mm focal length is that it’s boring, sterile, and lacks any real character. Perfect choice of a focal length for anyone who is dead inside. I rather live my life fully and that is why 28 mm is a good focal length. I can get close to my photography subjects and actually connect with them to the surrounding life in a way that 35 mm fails to do.
if 7mm is the difference between connecting with your subject or not then the lens isn't the problem you soi ape. Talking as someone who just bought a ff 15-30mm and my favourite lens of all the ones I own is still my EFS 10-18mm on my m50.

Also agree i personally don't like 50mm. My go to is still a ff 28-70. If I'm going for an up close portrait I'll use the top end of the range. If I want environmental portrait I'll go to the bottom but the 40-60mm range is usually useless to me outside of edge cases. But the issue isn't 50mm or 40-60, it's me and my shooting style doesn't suit it. I can get great photos but they aren't the ones I like to take.

Equivalence includes the noise from ISO… sort of. There is no free anything, no advantage. And no one wants to start at f5.6 and end up stopping down past a blurry f16 to finish deblurring the lens. Higher end larger sensors can outdo equivalence (which is the sort of part) ie, by having less noise at iso 800 than m43 does at 200, especially once scaled down to the same 20mp, and fast lenses reach their sharpest point before the diffraction limit.

A 20mp m43 is generally only as good as a 12mp ff from ages ago that only had 4 usable ISO settings, equipped with a crappy lens from 1983.

>If I posted an image taken with each of the three popular sensor sizes, what do you think your odds are of correctly identifying each?
Not amazing because we're not giga autists like you are.
However, your m43 shot is going to look a lot like a smartphone photo and probably will be given away as garbage (even if we cant identify it as m43; i.e. a rose by any other name is just as shit).
APS-C and FF sensors have a decent amount of overlap where they're indistinguishable but this is normally well-lit, low ISO, moderate DoF shots. If you post a handheld night photo it'll be piss easy to tell the difference.
DMF sensors are virtually the same as FF except with a higher MP count (read: shit colour accuracy and noise handling) so as long as you aren't cropping it, again, a difficultly lit scene will give it away as being shitter than something else.

There is no quiz, there is no prize. Nobody except the mega spergs are going to be able to pin a sensor size to any given photo they look at (and there's still ways to imitate worse/better sensors so gl).
Normal people take a look at the photo, and go either that looks nice or that looks like shit, and M43 photos overwhelmingly take the latter.

If you’re d700 fag its pointless. A lot of older ff dslr shit like the 5diii and d700 perform exactly like m43. Maybe sharper on the 5d3 unless you bought a $800 prime for your m43.

If you’re corgifag its pointless because he doctors his tests and posts thumbnails

I have my own photos taken with SIX sensor sizes (1", m43, canon apsc, sonikon aps-c, ff, crop mf) and i can always tell especially when i used two different cameras with the same lamp.
1" and M43 always look EXACTLY the same
Canon APS-C often looks worse than m43 but ISO 800 and under it had nicer shading
Sonikon APSC and FF are close and noticeably better than m43
DX MF has no real advantage over a z7 or something and really looks exactly like it
Old DSLRs like the d700, 5d2 look more like m43 than apsc
Really old ones like the 5d classic and d200 simultaneously look better and worse than m43 and are actually a better choice than m43… and modern FF.
>>
>>4488498
Anyone could tell if they could use the two cameras with the same pair of hands in the same scene. Your cherry picked botched ff ewaste photo vs perfectly executed base ISO ETTR’d photo taken with $3000 of gear comparison isnt really needed or useful. The world moved past m43 for a reason. And its not a conspiracy, a capitalism, or a consumerism. Its just really close to phones as a format and m43 raws have only slightly more latitude than a jpeg.

>>

So the most important person? The one who knows which shots they passed up because m43 is phone tier by ISO 800?

Lets not forget equivalence is a theory, not a rule. Testers use equivalent settings. Photographers use the best settings they can. Dishonest 4tranners like you and corgifag put your micro financial mistake ($3k of crop gear) up against a botched photo or something taken with junk like a 5d3. Exif is gone and before it was gone it was edited. Huskyfags em5iii vs z7ii tests are the only ones I think were ever honest.

most cameras from the past 15 years or so excluding glaring exceptions are simply more than adequate for hobbyists, people who claim otherwise and then ree about muh dr and all this shit are missing the forest for the trees, optimizing dynamic range to squeeze out the extra .000001 stop simply doesn't matter to someone simply trying to enjoy a photography walk, but a nice form factor or something that simply makes you happy does

For being the least challenging and least important subject it looks like shit.

Do you actually believe this shit or are you just poor?

This is 4chan. Anyone shooting bricks has no friends or family. They have no job. They collect welfare by lying about having autism. What do you think?

you seem like a very negative person lmao. You seem to genuinely hate photography and only love consuming the latest item from x multinational corporation. What exactly is wrong with you ?

There is a man here who is literally homeless and used to financially depend on his wife. Of course they’re poor.

Whats next, its the jews? Anything to avoid confronting the fact that better looking photos look better. Sorry you cant afford a better camera.
>>
>>4488543
yeah very few people on /p/ have ever taken a photo that means anything and even fewer have held a job that pays more than the median wage

if you never even took a picture of your parents, sister, brother… let alone a girlfriend or wife… why would quality matter? it looks like shit but its just a brick wall with ugly cars in front. it looks like shit but its just a tree. it looks like shit but its just a stray cat. etc. how can better looking photos matter if the subject is worthless? these are 4channers. they have no lives! their only sense of self worth is shopping better, like a redditor but poorer

1/10 attempt at politicizing should have just called it jewish brainwashing

>People live in places with buildings made of brick? Balderdash! You should just go up to your summer beach home and take photos there!
Ngmi if your approach to photography is to actively avoid photographing the place you spend most of your time.
Not everything has to be a vacation snapshit. If he missed focus he missed focus and should be shit on appropriately, but you're just being a nigger for no go reason.

>Lets not forget equivalence is a theory, not a rule.
I have no idea what the fuck people mean when they say equivalence here. It's a basic principle about the effect cropping has on an image. It is not a theory. It can't "not work" in practice. It's very clear cut and basic. You can argue about the subjective effects of equivalence all you'd like, but the simple matter is that cropping by some factor has the appearance of more noise, a higher f number and a longer focal length by that factor. That's the beginning and end of "equivalence."

>Photographers use the best settings they can.
Wrong, as proven countless times by fujislugs. However, the best settings for most photos are at f/2 and above, with most being around f/4-f/16, which are perfectly within reach of Four Thirds. What you can't do is bokehwhore or take ultrawide shots with FT.
>>
>>4488509
Looks like shit. It'd look better with bracketing but the subject (or more accurately, the lack thereof) doesn't really warrant any effort. It's not even a real photograph, it's just an image.
>>
>>4488543
It's not about deserving but about having no use for it. If you're incapable of competently operating an advanced camera and unwilling to learn you'd unironically be better off with a full auto point and shoot.
>>
>>4488590
>how big full frame dslr's used to be
Just the D850 and similar ones.
>>
>>4488552
>I spend most of my time looking at a wall and pitying myself
Nice confession, but if you were worth a damn as a photographer you'd realize the art isn't just capturing whatever is front of you. That's not photography, that's mere imaging. Maybe go down there and look for an interesting angle if you want to show how much you cherish that weathered warehouse. Play with the light. Maybe photograph some insect on the wall you like so much. You'd probably thought "I'll fix it in post" when you snapped that garbage. Then you polished the turd the best you could. And here we are, with a poorly exposed snapshit of nothing.

>>

Are you unironically accusing me of shooting that shitty warehouse?
>>
>>4488607
No I’m unironically accusing you of being the same retard geardo who posts the same exact spec masturbatory garbage in every thread and then shits on everything someone else posts when everything you yourself post is also universally recognized as garbage
>>
>>4488608
Except what I actually said goes against what you're accusing me of. An auto P&S would be better than shooting garbage with the idea of "fixing it in post".
>>
>>4488595
This is a meaningless and masturbatory statement. You’re saying more of a truth about yourself than anyone else.

Cameras are not hard to use.
How to do better than you would with fool turds: ISO 100
Wowza. People used to shoot ISO 50 only.
>>
>>4488611
>heh, I underexposed this at ISO 100, it will surely look better lifted in post than if I had turned the gain up
>>
>>4488614
The 3-3.5 extra stops of highlight data say hi
Fill flash says hi
>its not the same photo
Its a better photo.

Also, if its a zf or r5 or similar superior camera its going to just be slightly ahead of equivalence all the time
>>
>>4488547
better camera don't automatically make better photos, retard
>>
>>4488548
imagine you take a high ISO noisy photo of your grandfather who then dies. what a pity. it was noisy so you had to delete it.
>>
>>4488618
better camera automatically makes better photos. yes, its true. stephen shore has a career just because he wasnt too pussy to shoot 8x10. et tu, sensorlet?
>>
>>4488620
>was granddad always green and blotchy
>no, that was just my olympus camera’s sony sensor. i should have bought a canon… or just used film ;_;
>>
>>4488617
zf/r5 is twice the size and weight of the om-5
now add the huge z/rf lenses
why are you retards comparing a compact EDC camera to heavy plastic blob pro bodies?
>>
>>4488617
That only applies to high DR scenes where trying to extract max DR from a single exposure will likely yield inferior results than bracketing. It's the RP In the mountains shooter dilemma, he was convinced his shitty exposure would be salvaged by an extra stop when it was obvious he botched it. In other words, skill issue.
MFT can use flash too.
>>
>>4488625
Zf is an EDC size camera lol
>>
>>4488654
I could write an essay explaining how far off track and unrealistic you are but this is the board of idiots that think an f1.2 on m43 has free DOF and the same exposure and you are only one rung above them. I wish we had huskyfag back. Bless his autistic jewish heart. He actually used all this shit simultaneously and was happy to demonstrate fourturds shortcomings and photos only FF could even take in real time down to technical minutiae. He just got sick of repeating things to idiots I guess. He fucked off somewhere and is probably dicking around with a d850 now, shilling nikon DSLRs as anon.

Am I not correct that someone once tried to educate you shills with photos, got sick of it, and left? An example for the rest of us. He who thinks he can prove fourturds shills wrong, wastes his time. They can be objectively wrong and continue lying the next day as if nothing happened.

>shadow recovery
either you're too retarded to get a proper exposure in camera or you're retarded to think that shadows need any recovery
it's a sign of the autistic mind to try to show everything in a picture
