  • Yeah, I let the salt dissolve for a few seconds just incase there is any sand "stuck" within the salt spray. Also involves less effort wiping and cleaning that way instead of "scrubbing" the salt ...
  • I use zeiss wipes, and they work great for salt spray too. They are normally almost too wet out of the package, so I lay the wet cloth across the element to soak for a second, then wipe off. I also ...
  • A good compromise is to think of it as digital art based on photography. The subject and base image are captured via traditional photography, and it is then edited into digital art. Its no ...
  • Not if you shoot RAW. The RAW files are full resolution in 3:2 aspect ratio, even if you select a different one during shooting. The in camera review will also show the full file with a gray box ...
  • One option to consider is using photoshops "generative expand" feature to get the 5:4 aspect ratio you are looking for without any cropping. Results vary depending on the original image, but on ...
  • I would also be interested to see how your results turned out if you bothered with more than one generation. The PS one for example, should be real simple to use gen fill to remove the extra spout, ...
  • Did you read through both pages? I did two sets of comparisons (the pictures of batteries on my desk). The first on page 1 with the tiffen and the second on page 2 with the b+w.
  • I did exactly that in this thread: https://www.dpreview.com/forums/thread/4642670? My conclusion was a cheap tiffen filter had some small impacts on IQ, but the expensive B+W filter did not. I use ...
  • I'm excited to see the GS in the a9iii, it's always good to see innovation and sony is known to take those big steps first and then the other industry leaders follow suit and refine it to their ...
  • Depending on your budget and use case I would split your upgrade between the R6II and the R8. If you want weather sealing, better battery life, and IBIS then the R6II is the move. I would have ...
  • What engraver and software package are you using? Most of what you are asking about can be done natively in lightburn.
  • I am in the same boat, I love my 24-240. I'd gladly drop a few grand on a 24-240L (for weather sealing primarily, among the other L glass benefits). This lens certainly sounds great, since a ...
  • They are not really comparable products. Gen Fill is mostly useful for the removal of objects (at which it does an admiral job) and outpainting (expanding an image). MidJourney is going to be the ...
  • I have never once accidentally changed the shooting mode on any of my cameras.
  • This is the way to do it.
    I have a hiking pack from my Forest Service days that I filled with 2" cushion foam from hobby lobby, cut into dividers/bottom padding covered with some cheap fabric and...

  • I second ExposurePlot. I had the same debate with my 24-240mm (compared to a 24-105) and found that over 50% of the time I shoot at 150mm+.
  • Well, what did canon service have to say about it? I would have contacted them first to see about a replacement, instead of asking for opinions here about what canon may or may not do for you. It ...
  • Remember, black friday prices historically have been better than "upgrade prices". YMMV. I think I am going to pass on PL7 though. It does not add anything I am interested in or expand on anything ...
  • Flowers are the one thing that surprise me every time I take a shot of them. I have never once "planned" a flower shot, I use my camera for candid stuff with family/friends. We will be walking ...
  • As far as I know, there is a mechanical limiter that is enabled with the TC installed. Its not just mashing glass together.
