You shoot and make do with the camera you have and not with the camera you think you need or want.

Without any hesitation, some people get irritated and anxious about any new kind of technology. A long time ago, it were the first cameras that got people worked up. Then, the introduction of the ...

Isn't there a limiter switch on the lens? Some lenses can't be switched to only focus inside a range. That can be switched off.

I had that same lens and although it was really sharp, it was mechanically weak. I tore it completely apart when trying to take of the stuck lens cap. It came apart in two pieces.

I don't even have the option of 4k30p. I only have 24p. Could this be regional?

I liked it on the right side. In summer, my face gets greasy and with my a7 it means, the screen gets greasy. On the aps-c a6400, it became much less greasy.

This is not an expensive lens. The AF is slightly behind native Sony but since it is less than half price of the Sony 35/1,8, I think this lens is a steal. It is small and light making it an ideal ...

I've never owned one but I shot several time with one and that was as an enormous panoramic bay windows. Best OVF ever.

Whatever works for you is good. A couple of my mates have old D-slrs. They take it out once or twice a year and shoot some pictures. In their case, I would never advise them to buy a new ...

It's just human psychology and has as much to do with this as with the technology. At every new invention/innovation, there are early adopters, some people will wait a bit to see what it is and ...

It seems to have been only a WB problem.

I always use lens correction unless I forget to switch in on by mistake.

I also use that feature often when I want to precisely focus on a subject. But I use zoom in combination with af.

I occasionally use an ND filter but I have stopped using graduated ND filters a long time ago. ND filters can be handy when I want a really long shutter time for waterfalls and rivers etc. The ...

Or as a walkaround lens.

It is very pragmatic. Large diameter lenses have a collision danger, small very much less so.

Personally, it depends on the lens diameter I use. I used to shoot with the Sony a6400 and all lenses with a smallish diameter, I just used the lenshood and no filter. On the very small Sony 35 and ...

The dessert has many faces. This is the view when you approach the sanddunes near Erg Chebbi. The colour of the sand changer per hour. It can be a dull brownish tint and it can change to ...

This pic was taken at this spot https://goo.gl/maps/pQQZNZdB8nhq6SYB9 . You see on the first bit of the pictures, the orchards. The water rights are very strict. Each owner can use water for a said ...

The calcium rich water leaves deposites on the terraces thus giving the appearence of snow. It isn't snow, it is calcium and often really slippery. That girl on the picture is by no means an ...
