After a month of staring blankly at the sky asking myself whether I really wanted a full frame mirrorless, I decided this afternoon that I'd be more productive if I just bought one and stopped daydreaming about it.

Nice.

There is too much paralysis through analysis with photography. A year goes by and you haven't done anything new.

Well done

Probably more like we shoot different types of subject matter in different conditions. I'm sure the folks at Canon aren't idiots and have designed a camera that is great for some, I am just not one. I hope future models rapidly improve things for my type of photography.

Yes i think you are right.... it has been great for me.

I hope you get wat you want in a later model maybe pro version.

RTFM is soooooo overrated! 😀

Of course it might have helped me to read the manual to see if there was a setting I needed in order to use my Rokinon version of the Samyang.

Yeah that is what men do.... don,t read the manual till you get stuck.

I know that i do.

I saw a talk with that photographer Joe Buissink. He strongly encouraged everyone to read camera manuals from cover to cover as they are chock full of awesome information.

Inspired, I went home and promptly still did not read the manual. I have a pile of manuals in MINT condition.
