Photography is an art, when made by an artist.  Define ART Or define ARTIST. Not simple definitions for me.

Totally agree with this easy approach to an understandable explanation. I will expecto 50 mm f/1.8 lens for FF will have a much bigger glass diameter than the 25 mm f/1.8 for micro 4/3. Magic...

I just don't like reflex design on an EVF mirrorless. I prefer Fuji's (and Sony's) approach Leica like lateral finders, with or without the OVF.

Just a personal opinion.

Try bird photography. They don´t have lawyers. And they go nude. I think the problem about privacy begins not when you shoot and look at your work, but when you upoload an image into the Internet....

Thank you very much for this simple explanation. It also was very frustrating the use of words in the discussion about lenses ability to "gather" light. I remember -most people have done this-...

Completely agree. In my older posts I have emphasized in film era SLR were the best available technology  because they showed through the lens real view of what film will get. Digital changed this....

Two ring zooms let you focus at 70, and then zoom out to 35 for the wide angle shot. Was it easy for you to focus at 35 f 4.0?   Sincerely. I used an FD 35-105 f3.5 (two rings too, one for zooming...

Maybe my "perception" is that a Canon AE1 came with a 50 f 1.8 as NORMAL  lens, and an A1 maybe with a 50 mm f 1.4, but today any entry level DSLR will came with an f3.5-5.6 normal kit zoom.  It...

Many different parameters are involved in sensor light gathering. Metabones is just an example, a cute lens design (which I haven't seen in any APSC specific lenses) can get more light reach a...

Thank you for your correction.

Older film lenses, specially in the manual focus era (pre 90's) had to deal not only with limited ISO film but also with the ability to allow you to focus manually using in the best case a split...

And maybe a camera will be a wifi or bluetooth lens inside a box, with every control in your phone display.

Samsung can do that right now I think, just pulling apart the lens from their last...

Just thinking wide angle lenses are much better in viewfinder (old mirrorless film) cameras, just a design issue of less distance to the focal plane, and now DIGITAL mirrorless can achieve this...

SLR  came to make possible interchangeable lenses of all kinds, an aspect that Leica and others could never solve with elegance. Viewfinders never really simphatized with many different focal...

What is FF? Ahh, you mean 24x36 mm sensors, just like the tiny little film of old Leicas.... The same tiny thing that made 6x6 RolleIflexes just obsolete. And every LARGE FORMAT  equipment obsolete...

The photo might be good enough. The text bellow is just awesome. These photos are nothing but "improvised" .
Phones are good tools, have many strong useful points, but don't treat me lika a fool...

As technology advances, companies keep finding their way to deliver worse products. Less durable. Less efficient. Better marketing.

Photography maybe an art, but not everybody is an artist.

Images can be whatever you like, they are about aesthetics, and feelings they produce.

Photography is only a part of that process. But...

An inspiring thread.

A great advantage of shooting close to your home or work place is that you can go to the desired place at ther right time, meaning the right light.

Difficult or not posible...
