Yesterday I affixed my old Nikon AF NIKKOR 20mm f/2.8D via the FTZ adaptor to my Z6ii. I understand it's manual focusing only, which is fine - but even so, focusing (without enlarging) was very challenging. I've got red focus peaking on and when zoomed in, the focusing works much better (to be...

I had an outing with another photographer last week and we had a little discussion on whether the in-camera histogram is useful or not. He says "yes", I say "no". It would be interesting to hear your views. The discussion applies to raw shooting only, and probably mainly to landscapes where...

Been a long time member of mu-43, but really cut back when they dumped the mobile app. Then pretty much closed y activity when so many 4/3 friends stopped regular posting. Just posted a question there for the first time in a year, got a quick answer, and then started browsing other posts to see...

Finally got a break and went to see Top Gun Maverick. Great movie. Like watching a 21st century version of the Cliff Robertson movie 633 Squadron. This is the movie that George Lucas cites as inspiration for the original Star Wars attack on the Death Star. A quick search showed up that other...

So, I've decided that I hold on to stuff for way too long. between the business shots and personal images, I've accumulated over 150,000 images in the lightroom catalog. Honestly, everything runs fine...but there are images in there from 2008 for events that should be purged and experimental...

While googling “monochrome painting”, I came across the image “Saturn Devouring One of his Sons” on this site. What amuses me is the shots of this print hanging in a typical house. Maybe it’s just me, but I’m not sure I would put this in the family/living room. Maybe in my personal study or...
