I think it was definitely electronic and wouldn't find that deceptive at all.

That Sony, I believe, is the lightest 70-200/2.8 ever made, is 3x as expensive and this is made of metal. Metal is heavier than modern materials for making lenses.

With that money I would consider a used Leica Q. I picked one up a several years ago for under $2500. It is good enough to be the only camera you take on vacation and you’ll often use it just ...

Yes, photoshop too with a raw adjustment layer. I really like C1s approach to color adjustments, their HSL wheel with ranges built in and especially skin tone wheel. I think it is a much better...

That is hilarious. My first thought was: ‘they messed up some film and are trying to sell it, now’

DXO prime allows you to avoid the baked TIFF in lieu of the half-baked linear DNG. Check it out.

It is an optional add-on to each file and unlikely you would need it for every shot. Use your discretion.

It is actually a massive reduction in required storage space and time for the same...

It isn’t actually a simulation of an OVF.  I guess the R3 has something close to that. maybe try exploiting the advantages of a wysiwyg viewfinder to see the upside.

This is what I would recommend and use a zone box to kick it off, if you don’t want to try and pin a small point on your target

I try C1 every now and then.  I like affinity (especially for the money).  I like that combo as affinity fills in some key gaps in C1 that are occasionally useful, like stitching. when the next gen ...

Filmic has log on the iPhone. Conceivably they would have access to this codec. You certainly wouldn’t shoot it in the default video app with no shutter speed control, 😂

Feels a little like they came out with this after just having solved the problem (M1 processors). I’m sure it will still be useful for some but barring an unforeseen quality improvement it isn’t...

Maybe for most things photo related and all things raw processing related. There are some deep places it cannot practically go and photo manipulation is only a small part of what photoshop is used...

I agree.  Get out of EF bodies or you'll need to keep around redundant EF lenses which overlap your RF lenses to have a true backup.  Then you can sell your 70-300 without worry. No reason to ...

This analogy would have bite if Adobe were doing that, but they are constantly adding significant improvements.  Who is really outpacing them in new features and innovation?  At a minimum they are ...

How about we just get all adjustments in a mask. There are several missing that should be included. HSL, Curves, Color grading at a minimum.

In a roundabout way you can do what you are asking...

I actually can't find a single one that comes close to offering the suite of tools Adobe does with solid cloud backing of the catalog and the ability to import and/or edit any time from anywhere ...

If it is the non-classic variety of Lightroom, you will have to export and then import into PureRaw as you do.  Alternatively, if you'd like to use PureRaw on everything, I'd just start there and ...

See my workflow below using PureRaw.  It works really well if you don't mind sacrificing some storage space.

Yes! Linear is the word I was searching for. You do lose some advantage as in it has already be demosaiced and processed to some extent (for example denoised and sharpened by DXO). That is also ...
