The FF hype makes use of the fact that humans always look at what they could be missing and too seldom at what they have. There is absolutely no doubt that all sensors can produce nice results. And...

Not everybody wants to buy a system. Some just want to have a versatile system, or a camera (or several cameras) for a specific purpose (e.g. vlogging, weddings or birds). As an example, one could ...

I have grandkids. Works too.

Thanks for all the inspiring thoughts. It is most difficult for me to decide if an image is good or not. And maybe there is no objective way to decide. I either think of a viewer or a special ...

Nice dog and pictures. However, exposure and white balance are problematic in this image.

Only, if you have an extremely good lens on your big film camera. See, modern lenses designed for 24x36 have made a lot of progress. However, maybe a Hasselblad ...

Above is an image we discussed recently. A friend called it "uninteresting and underdeveloped". I looked at his images and understood. Yes, this is not the kind of images that usually get ...

I think you should keep your MFT with the telephoto lens for wildlife, and buy a Z7 with a good landscape lens, like the 24-120 f/4 or the smaller 24-70 f/4, if money is no issue and you really ...

He is comparing APS-C cameras of the same analoge dial type with a similar lens. To me, that makes perfect sense. However, I am not sure if the ZFC can hold against the XT30 II in the features that ...

It is advertised by Nikon as a fun lens. From the construction, I would suspect it is not an excellent lens, just small. There are no miracles.

True for the same pixel size. Equivalent settings between different sensor sizes will exhibit the same DOF, noise, and, by the way, the same diffraction. I.e., 25mm f/2 ISO100 on MFT will look like...

I tested with my Meike rings. It works. But the camera stops when the focus is on infinity. Now, the camera does not know about the rings at all. So, it is not clear to me when it stops with the ...

Four reasons: (1) Primes are almost always better in sharpness, contrast, chromatic errors, vignetting etc. even when shot at f/4 only.

I do not really think that I need to convince anybody about the qualities of this lens, especially not if he or she ever used it. Nor can I add substantially new information to this frequently ...

Maybe this video is worth watching: https://youtube.com/watch?v=sNAziALpnXc&feature=shares or this one: https://youtube.com/watch?v=gk-Wp22uExA&feature=shares

By the way, I'd love to fix two typos I made in the review. But I cannot edit it.

There is no need to lock it every time. I know that all of us tend to immediately switch the camera off all the time, and also lock the lens. I have the same habit. It is mostly unnecessary, and ...

I admit that I completely forgot to mention the 24-50. It was the kit lens I bought with my Z5. I sold it later, even though it is compact and nice. According to my experience, reviews and the ...

Nikkor 28mm, f/4, 1/30, ISO1100, making good use of available light. I recently get a lot of recommendations on YouTube for videos on "my favorite focal length". Most are about either the 28mm or ...

Yes, the product is 9$. Then I need to add 20$ mail handling. More, if I want a deliver short of two weeks. I have no idea why the globalization does not reach us mail consumers.
