Also remember that it's possible to do wonderful work and never touch either Lightroom or Photoshop. There are many alternatives, most cheaper, some similarly powerful, none as popular. With...

Many companies prefer subscription software pricing and have been paying this way for many years. It's much simpler to keep track of how many users you have and ensure that you have enough...

Their file formats will be read by other software. That's what always happens. Sure, you will lose access to features you rely on if you don't pay up, but Adobe would find half the world's...

That sounds like a very good deal. She'll probably like it and will find the pictures perfectly acceptable. Even if one camera is slightly better head-to-head, you'll never be comparing the...
-
Not always, but companies don't redesign all of their firmware every time they refresh their cameras. 'New' versions of these cameras come out about once a year with slight styling differences...
-
I don't think of companies as people. They don't have fixed personalities. Sometimes there are nasty managers who make decisions that hurt the world, but those same companies have other groups...

Adobe's pricing has always been steep. That was true from the very beginning and this just makes it even steeper. Lightroom is actually unusual among Adobe products in being reasonably priced. ...

The 6.7-13mm is a terrific lens, right up there optically with the excellent 30-110mm and better made. It's a solid little lens and comes with a very well-designed hood. The 10-30mm is soft at...

Quite welcome. Good luck finding the right camera. All of these are quite nice and can take lovely pictures. They are much improved from just a couple of years ago.

This all sounds normal, and familiar. If you are acting as designated photographer at social occasions and on trips, you will often be rushed. Eventually you'll be able to make decisions...

Yes, I agree. Closest camera to that is the NEX-5R. It costs a bit more, but has more features in a small body. The touch screen is nice to have. Costs more, alas.

Be cautious when comparing flash ratings. There is a lot of optimism by makers, but there are also different ways of quoting them. They are always quoted at a particular ISO, usually the base...

Thorium is radioactive, but I doubt there is enough in a lens coating to be a big concern. It emits alpha particles that are easily blocked, so they may not even be making it out of the lens. ...

The NEX-6 comes with the retractable 16-50mm zoom, a tiny thing, so it's more like a tuna can on a pack of cigarettes. Actually, that's not quite accurate, because the grip on the NEX-6 is big,...

That's a very handy overview, Wally. You should keep it handy for other times this question arises.
My personal view is that most cameras end up on a closet shelf, so you're better off staying...

If you shot Nikon you'd know the answer is yes. Their current ff models (some, maybe all) offer a crop mode for people who want to use their DX lenses on their new ff bodies. It just takes a...

I really like the LF1, too. At least from its specs, since I haven't seen it yet. I wish the evf was higher res, but it's a miracle a camera that small has one at all. It should be better than...
-
I was just curious about what you found attractive about those two as they're quite different, the most expensive and most advanced and one of the cheapest and least capable. There are a bunch of...
-
They are both evolutions of earlier models, the SX260 and the ZS15, so reading reviews of those models should give you a sense of their abilities. That line of Canons has been through several...

Sure, images can be stolen, and that's sad, but that doesn't mean they have much actual value. Why would they be valuable unless they are somehow unique? High quality images of ordinary...
