One photo thread per lens (EF-M)?

What about one photo thread per EF-M lens? That should be no more than 8 new threads, if I have counted correctly.

Why?

Just for fun, actually. But I also think it will be easier to see what each lens can do, and also nice to have a thread to link to when people are asking about a specific lens.

What do you think ?

Actually, the persons who will post pictures are the ones who are actually voting.

However, there are arguments why sorting them by lens has its downsides:

- there are more lenses than just EF-m lenses. Where can i post pictures of my M50 + Zeiss Contax 85mm f/1.4?

This is the description for this forum (quote):
"Welcome to the Canon EOS M Talk Forum, the place to discuss Canon EOS M digital cameras and EF-M lenses."

Look, you can also make "Canon EOS M ditigal cameras" bold in stead of "EF-m lenses". Perhaps the best thing to make bold is only the word "and". However, you can't make pictures with only a lens, right? A camera is needed, an EOS M camera for instance.

There are other forums for other lenses. Why don't you go there and see if you can find a photo thread for your lens 😉 ?

Just because people could want to categorize it according to the camera system rather than just lenses with a certain mount from a certain brand.

Or.. You can make your own thread here. Here is an idea for a title for your thread:

"Adapted lenses on M-series cameras - Post your PHOTOS!" (feel free to copy anything you want from one of the threads I just posted.)

I was giving arguments why it is not a good idea to make more threads, and why it is better to combine in less threads.

- More emphasis on the lens performance will likely generate less interesting pictures, and therefor these threads will die sooner. The M forum would benefit the most from more emphasis on the performance of the photographer.

Whatever you ask about (or idea you present), you will always find someone who are negative,

I am not negative. I am trying to support the idea of posting pictures, and so are you. There is a difference between being negative and criticize a less fruitful way to achieve something.

at least in these forums. (There are a lot of other threads to post in, if you don't like these new ones.)

Of course. But again, more threads is a less good solution.

- the same amount of pictures for 8 threads will give less alive threads than have these pictures bundled in one thread

Beside the arguments: Actually the persons who will post pictures are the ones who are actually voting.
