Lunchtime in Rudesheim, in the Drosselgasse!

It may be a bit big, but I like it.

It was my first m4/3 and (along with the E-PM1) got me hooked on m4/3.

One of my all time favorites, I keep going between this, the Pan 14mm, and PanLeica 15mm. I'll probably pick up another 14mm, but this time I think I'll just keep the 17mm as well.

The Oly 25 is really nice and I might buy another. I have the PanLeica 25mm f/1.4 now, but Oly would be a better fit on my Pen F.

The Olympus classic portrait lens that I don't think I ever used for portraits.

I like macros, but not enough to keep this. I tend to use the long end of telephotos instead now.

My current favorite (cat) portrait and fast mid:

This one seemed almost too wide, but it was fun.

Only had this one for a little while and it was a number of years ago, but...

Haven't had this one for a while, but it's a really sharp and cheap option for many.

Didn't have this one very long but...

So, my open box A6400 did not come with an eye cup. I found this one on Ebay and it fits perfectly. It does block the very bottom side of the screen when inverted but not a huge deal. KIWIFOTOS Long Camera Eyecup For Sony A6400 A6500 A6600 replaces Sony FDA-EP17 | eBay

I found this interesting: https://www.dpreview.com/news/2276226761/sony-reportedly-cuts-planned-mirrorless-camera-features-to-free-up-hardware-for-ps5?utm_source=newsletter&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=2020-february-20&ref_=pe_1822230_478205660_dpr_nl_413_15

I just pulled the trigger on the upgrade. I've been patient and got in on a deal for $720. MyA6000 has served me well, but on occasion has had AF misfires, especially during tracking. I was torn between the IBIS of the A6500 for my older Legacy lenses and the Eye AF on the A6400. The...

That's right, the lens that many own but not talked about, I'll start with this.

I have for a long time suspected that those chickadees and nuthatches were pretty desperately hungry during the overnight hours. Finally, the truth is revealed. Here, ladies and gentlemen of the jury, we have proof that the buck does, indeed, stop here. The prosecution rests. Cheers, Jock

Merry Christmas everyone! Cheers, Jock

The Samyang AF 85mm f/1.4 is price almost similar to the Sony 85mm f/1.8. Is it worth to give the "Yang" a go? What's your experience comparing these two lens?

Is https://https//www.talkemount.com dead or is it my machine with something wrong ? I am on Mac with problems in LR after the upgrade to the last version of Mohave ! You ?

Just a heads-up, the "color film showcase" subforum contains a lot of B&W films! I was looking for a film stock in the B&W subforum but there are only a few threads there, and the rest of the B&W film stocks are in the color forum.

Slightly cropped, both taken with the 30 1.4 stopped down, lens firmware upgraded to the v03 and AF is about the same or faster than the Sony 50mm 1.8 OSS lens, which is not ideal for fast moving subjects.

This was the first lens I got for my Sony system. I took this photo at the subway during peak hour, the lady wearing a speaker probably has got the easiest job, to tell people to wait for the next train, luckily we don't have those "pushers" you see in Japan or even Beijing these days. Here she is.

You might know those things that no reviews ever cover but can really make a camera system undependable for certain types of work, and when you ask, people tell you "that's what manual mode's for", or "that's just the way it is", it shouldn't have to be. And TTL flash has long been the worst...

I have just had a hour or so to play with my new A7RIVs today and I think they could be the best cameras I have ever used. More time will tell, but Sony listened and has made an incredible body.

Please pardon the joke and the nerdy nature of these pictures. I tried to vary the iso a bit. You've seen these bottles before. They are in our display case and these samples are about 100 years old. The Chrome yellow is a little more yellow than the actual chemical sample. Here are...

I'll start with one I took today with the a6400. I'm a little surprised that besides maintaining excellent contrast and sharpness, this lens seems to deliver neutral colours, and I'm skeptical about Sony colours.

Folks, it's time to give your opinion on something. :) In short, we have a category for "Gear" with forums under it for the major items like Sony, Fuji, Leica, Canon, and so on. Two of those forums have "sub-forums" for showcasing images related to the item, Fuji Showcase and Leica Showcase...
