the desire for 28mm was filled long ago with smartphones. smartphones are far more convenient than carrying around a second camera, just to duplicate a focal length that you already have. smartphon ...

the permit isn't relevant to the fact that his hated "ytubers" have nothing to do with national parks being overrun with people.

all of those companies were selling to the same market, and smartphones took over the 28mm market; much of the history of iphones for example was based on 28mm lenses. my guess is that smartphones ...

yes. the nps already made it happen, the only thing under discussion here is the fee amounts and the absurd lack of clarity from the nps.

you clearly haven't been to a popular national park in a very long time. because it's overrun with smartphone owners taking family photos, not people who are trying to monetize youtube videos.

there is only one leica 28mm milc lens with af, and nothing from ricoh; if anything ricoh discontinued other 28mm lenses with af: Ricoh GR Lens A12 28mm f/2.5 Camera Unit 4 170563 B&H Photo Video ...

no, you are engaging in a logical fallacy: "With a slippery slope fallacy, the arguer claims a specific series of events will follow one starting point, typically with no supporting evidence for ...

what part of " only six 28mm ff milc lenses with af on the market today ", was unclear? samyang for instance chose to make a 35/2.8, 35/1.8, 24/1.8, 24/2.8, etc, NOT a 28mm lens. those are really ...

the preponderance of evidence indicates otherwise. there are only six 28mm ff milc lenses with af on the market today: Mirrorless Lenses and Compact System Lenses | B&H Photo (bhphotovideo.com) whe ...

if that was the priority you could get the samyang 24/1.8, for $400. they both have crappy stepper motors, which seems to be standard at this low end. that samyang 35/2.8 is $239 (!) at b&h right ...

on the a1 you can't actuate that real-time tracking you described with any button, it has to be done with the touch screen as you described... the a7rv improved that, we are hoping that it ...

x2 on all that, when i finally make out to utah. i was planning on running some places along the 395 again, including the rubicon, but with all of this snow things will be difficult at elevation ...

youtube videos are_shot_on smartphones, and edited on computers. there are many examples of that, for instance: Matt's Off Road Recovery - YouTube

nikon doesn't have anything comparable to the sony 200-600, so it's not clear where you think that you are seeing better lens options with a dslr. if you into shooting bif, later-model milc bodies ...

the definition that matters the most is how the i.r.s. defines it, and intention is a very small part of their equation: "The IRS presumes that an activity is carried on for profit if it makes a ...

exactly... a park ranger wouldn't take an interest because a guy with a smartphone is not having a negative impact on the park, nor the visitor experience for other people. the fact that his ...

you can't find any, period, because your claim was wrong. you just can't admit it. no, the o.p. said nothing at all about profit, it was *you* that brought it up, out of nowhere. read what you ...

then we can agree that your claim about "a few" was idle speculation. as i recall it was you that brought up profit. as the article stated the nps already tried to fine youtubers who didn't pay the ...

the thread topic is about whether or not the absurd fees that the nps is charging for a guy with a smartphone are fair. quoting what the nps says is not addressing that, and as the article stated, ...

"a few"? can you find even one youtuber who got enough views to pay for a trip to shoot one park. gas, food, lodging, entry fees, etc... post the link.
