I am using A7CR as my P&S with Minolta/Sony 24-105 3.5-4.5 lens+LA-EA5 adapter, not sharpest zoom, but smaller than 24-105 f4 FE lens. It fits in my winter jacket pocket. 28-60 is a small lens, but there is not much space btw the grip and the lens and it nearly tears my fingers when I open the...

If you compare the Yosemite photo vs Tetons photo above, there is a big difference in the contrast. In the videos, he was measuring the lightest and darkest areas of the composition area with lightmeter and made calculations to run the film exposure longer/shorter to change the dynamic range...

I just watched 2 half hr episodes of Ansel Adams at All Arts and found more online: "Art does not reproduce the visible. Rather, it makes visible. The artist can give many interpretations as possible as he is able to perceive. They all depend on his point of view." Ansel Adams: Photography As...

I am one of them as a dog walker... I like cameras with one hand operation... P&S cameras are better with the zoom controls by a button also eg I shot BIF @ 600mm with RX10 IV while holding the dog on leash... Our dog is a lap cat at home, but a pulling sniff dog in the woods...

I found a therapist:) Ted Forbes: What is really important? A creative vision in photography is a never-ending process. In the current day we live in its become even more complex. What is more important? 100 Megapixels, 8k video or the ability to express something visually that's never been done?

2/3 stop difference between m43 vs 1" sensors so it is similar to m43 vs apsc difference... 1.5 stop faster lens gives shallower dof...

No, it is definetely Olympus:) I mean Huff....

You missed the big one, Chelsea switched from Sony to Canon R5 and previously from Nikon to Sony... It's like a soap opera:) As some say they are looking for a sponsor or website clicks... Manufacturers send them review equipment on loan anyway, so they might not need to buy anything...

Will there be more Olympus cameras after 2020? - Photo Rumors Olympus financial losses over the years: and Sharp is still coming to m43 with 8K camera... Maybe they should have bought Olympus. The world's smallest Sharp 8k interchangeable MFT lens video camera should be announced soon -...

Hopefully Olympus camera will turn around, but new investors will not bury lots of money unless they see a return in the future. It was different with bigger corp. I am sure they will cut costs including R&D... Also I was saying finally Panasonic brought upgraded evf/lcd in a small package...

I need to consolidate mine too. I try to have lenses that can be used multiple systems, but then Samyang and Tamron release these small lenses for Sony that I cannot resist:) I like the Samyang 45/75mm, but then I got Tamron 70-180mm though I was not planning as 85mm+135mm shooter. When I had...

Yes, winter blues to Spring.... Check this one:)

I agree that you have to try to see what works for yourself... Reviews are good to give you some initial impressions, but most of them look like marketing PR for GAS in the age blogging... I like the rangefinder style/smaller cameras, and the latest animal eye focus :) Nice write up from...

RX1R II + Panasonic ZS200 for my vacation:

Hopefully your hump will be over. I've seen your great shots. I don't spent too much time specificaly to photography, but I try to capture what I see when we are out... It is meditating for me. I am using more and more 1" sensor zoom cameras in a small package esp I can capture a bird with...

Great images. Same here, I read it, but never tried it. It's been used for macro and landscape shots. Olympus has been adding to their cameras eg EM1 had it with the ver 4 firmware: Utilising the OM-D E-M1 Ver. 4.0's Focus Stacking and Focus Bracketing Modes in Insect Photography, with...

If you understand it, all it matters. Sorry to confuse you, but what I tried to tell you is explained here: Depth of Field and the Small-Sensor Digital Cameras "So the bottom line - and all you really need to know - is that DOF is inversely proportional to format (sensor) size." or Background...

He is correct for the lens, but not for the camera+lens combo. If you consider the sensor size, the FF sensor gets 2.7 stops more light... Compare the football field filled with balls (light photons) to basketball field filled with balls (light photons) or put a bucket vs small glass under rain...

The lens is 6.7-18mm which is equivalent to 18-50mm 135/FF. Aperture is similar eg f1.8-2.8 has f4.9-7.6 equivalent of 135/FF dept of field... 1" sensor has 2.78x multiplier to 135/FF so you will have 2.78 stop aperture difference as well.

Yes, Cameraquest has a nice website. I got the CV 15mm III from him. But Cosina kept the black CV 35mm 1.7 ultron overpriced in US compared to the world prices... That is another option for 35mm: Voigtlander Ultron 1.7 / 35 mm - Review - phillipreeve.net I use more contax g glass which is great...

I have 35mm 1.4 and used more on Sony nex. I have not used much with A7R, but I know it is one of the lenses that does not have any problems. One test shot on A7R: I like the mf tab and size is small, but bokeh gets a little busy. You can check the CV 35mm 1.4 & CV 40mm 1.4 review which are...

Based on your 50mm & 85mm experience, I think you should look for 85-90mm range which gives you 128mm-135mm on apsc cameras. Per rumors, Sony is also bringing a 85mm 1.4, but lately Sony shut its rumor mills... Also there is Olympus 75mm 1.8 where you can find more deals as it is an older lens...

Samsung has closing deals, which maybe good or not... Batis 85mm and Pana 42.5mm have both lens IS... I think all are good lenses. What about Sony 50mm 1.8 OSS, the cheapest of all of the above lenses (unless you want to upgrade FF)? Batis might be the hardest one to find, sold out since it's...

A good article for the old post: Selecting A Portrait Lens With Correct Focal Length

Here is the video from the link that I posted above. This was the first update before they resolved the hunting af at mfd. So it is pretty good after the initial start for the adapter to catch its focus. It is screw af so not silent esp the start up. Check the video. The fast phase detection af...

The more the better, but Canikon is holding onto its roots esp when the camera market has been shrinking for a while... Short flange has some advantages also, eg here is small Contax g lenses on Sony... Each lens cost $200-400 and has phase detection af/IBIS with A7 II/A7r II + techart...

Nice photos. I guess we exchanged the weather with UK. It is 15-16C misty/foggy in NYC with similar forecast for Christmas:)

GM1/GM5 uses 12b with e-shutter, so the rolling shutter is min compared to gx7, etc. However you loose 1/2 stop dynamic range w/ 12b.

I was going to say that, but truth is that it the juice of a juice of a juice as we say it... I just copied it before I went to sleep;) More images New leaked images of the new Leica Q FF camera! - mirrorlessrumors Big question sb in dpr asked is whether this f1.7 aperture value were...

EVF is 3.68 million dot, very high resolution if it is correct. Olympus EVF 4, Panasonic GH4, Fuji X-T1 and Sony A7's have 2,360k-dot evf.

Here is the first leaked image and specs of upcoming Leica Q Type 116 fixed lens FF camera. Price was rumored around $4500/4000 Euro: Lens: Summilux 1: 1.7 / 28mm ASPH 24MP CMOS full frame sensor Made in Germany Full HD Video Built-In Wi-Fi Remote control possible from smartphones and tablet...

All of the above... That was easy:) The longer lens, bigger aperture and sensor will give you more separation... Then the min focus distance also comes into play too... Robin Wong uses close focus a lot to drop the background with m43. Usually 35-50 is better with body portrait and then you...

I shoot mostly A mode also. Most of the mirrorless cameras has 1/60 sec min shutter speed on the wide side including Panasonic gm1/gx7, Sony A6000, etc. I don't know why Panasonic changed it in LX100.
