I live in England, which has a certain reputation for rain. Personally I would not base camera choice on weather resistance. How often are you likely to actually be shooting in any level of drizzle? ...

NO. For most people nowadays prints are an occasional afterthought. And for you that is fine and dandy. For practical purposes, not me. Apart from family pictures, which I occasionally put into ...

I have owned the original -E1, the X-T1 and X-T3. Can't say that I have noticed any 'character' differences between them. I will say that for manual focus (I do this a fair bit) the X-T viewfinder ...

How many millions in your budget?

In 60 years of photography, including 30 as a professional , I have never used a dry box for storing equipment in the UK. And I've lived in some pretty damp areas.

Ooops! Sorry, didn't scroll far enough.

None of your options. For the last 40 years I've had a policy of having one small bag that will take a maximum of about 2.5 kg (5lb) for all my personal shooting, See my sig!

No.

Unless you are prepared to align everything by hand you'll need to shoot this again. You need a good 30% overlap for the software to reliably match up the joins, especially if the originals were ...

Post examples.

I may be biased because my main camera is an X-T3,  but when I was running beginner courses in my old camera club many of my students found it easier to understand than the typical Nikon D3000 and ...

Illogically! What effect? How do you arrive at this conclusion? Yes, you are.

Have you ever tried a more recent camera? Maybe something made in the last 10 years? I don't know of any mirrorless cameras (or DSLRs using Live View on the rear screen) that don't display what has ...

What is the connection, for you, between these two statements? Being a pro means that you have the motivation of putting food on the table. I did it for 30 years. Stop thinking about a career ...

I was shooting weddings in the early1970's. That was the time of the big transition from B&W to colour. Intriguing!

Never heard of this. Post a copy of the photo. The Retouching forum might be best.

Bundles like this are usually a way to shift a load of tat. Personally I would not buy that pair of lenses.

No direct experience, but I very much doubt that lenses in any sort of decent mail packaging will be exposed to salt in the atmosphere on board a modern freighter, even in a deck carried container. ...
