Watching the video, what he actually says is that "they are more like plastic filters" not that they are plastic.

They are some kind of plastic, won't scratch your camera. Been using them for years and no issues in that area

Excellent obviously some Neanderthal didn't like the taste so they threw the can into space

I've got 4 little Samyang's and they are all good. Love the lightweight and small size. None of which I have had to send back in exchange for a good copy.

I agree, it's crazy to apply corrections to a Bayer file. I am just saying on Sony cameras the lens profile is added as metadata to the RAW file and can be read by any software to correct for lens ...

It actually works really well not badly at all. The discussion you are referring to dates to 2015, in the very early days of e mount. Things have moved on since then. And yes, that includes the ...

The correction data is added as metadata. The raw itself is not corrected. Any raw conversion software can then read that metadata and use it to correct the raw data. Not absurd, sensible as you ...

Sony bakes in the lens corrections into all its RAWs for any e mount lens on an e mount camera. Capture One certainly uses those baked in corrections. This obviously won't work for e mount lenses ...

What about the Sony Bluetooth remote ? I use one and it's great

You might want to ask this question in the Landscape and Travel Photography forum.

I haven't tried this but can you set WB to a manual value on your camera first, then store in one of the custom memory slots ?

Sony cameras embed the profile corrections into the raw file. Capture One uses them to do profile corrections, I would assume Imaging Edge does as well. Maybe profile corrections are disabled for ...

I use a Hoya red enhancer to help reduce sodium lamp light pollution, similar thing basically a didymium filter. See here: Hoya Red Enhancer Basically you are cutting out the yellower end of the ...

Either Imaging Edge App on the phone or the Sony Bluetooth remote. Both work for me.

I buy second hand gear from reputable dealers and it has worked out fine for me but you pay a bit more. Not sure I trust ebay

I would factor in the cost of lenses as well as the body, and if considering APS C the range of lenses available.

I actually really liked this lens, lightweight and sharp enough. Only got rid of it to make way for the 24-105 and sometimes regret not keeping it. At £289 I might just buy it again.

My travel kit: Sony A7iii (650g) Tamron 28-200 (575g) Samyang 24 1.8 (230g) Samyang 35 1.8 (210g) Total weight 1.67 kg not including 1.6 kg for tripod. Normally the 24 1.8 is used exclusively for ...

Yes I blow around the sensor chamber and on the sensor, works just fine. The nice thing it gives me a continuous airflow which you can't get with a squeezy rocket blower. I've had a lot less dust ...

I use a Nitecore Blowerbaby. Expensive for what it is, but it is working well for me.
