Almost all portraits are taken in backlit situations, except portrait 36, the child in the chair. The backlight in those portraits creates a halo that diffuses figures' contours, so the bokeh looks...

All mobile phones: "When I grow up, I want to be a Ricoh GR3".

@ Edgar: Good point. Maybe this doctor accepts only patients who own an iPhone 13, so there's no need for him to send them a new apple phone to check their eyes.

America is not the name of the country. The official is United States of America: U.S. or U.S.A.
America is also Mexico, Argentina, etc. The coloquial use of America standing fo the USA is a...

Hasselblad and Phase One have modular cameras too, similar to Old Hassy, Rolleis and this nice Olympus prototype, square MF style. Ricoh's Gxr proposal was very different and extremely orginal. A...

Nice

@ eisenmeteor: How subtle!

Well, I like Madame Butterfly or Lafcadio Hearn, despite mystifications. But my point is other. And I don't feel like getting into a terminilogy discussion right now, sorry. Enough we get of that...

@ZeroOne: That goes against present commerce, fairly globalized. It can apply, to only a certain extent, to primary products (food mainly), but the truth is that today, in areas like clothing,...

@ ZeroOne: what sounds like really naive is to justify apple protagonism in dpr invoking nationalism and summoning Coreans to only review Corean products, for instance. Ok, lets talk only about...

I don't care about dpr talking a lot about apple products. As some say, if you don't like it, don't read it or don't buy it. But the truth is that these late years, dpr talks mainly about apple...

Truly difficult to believe this is not paid promotion. How can dpr explain all this focus on apple products to the point of almost obliterating others? You could argue that apple products are more...

A very affordable way to get into 120 film photo is the Russian Lubitel, a TLR with lots of vigneting and flimsy knobs, but fun and capable of interesting results. I still keep one of these boxes...

Everybody keeps saying that GRs are extremely pocketable, but in two cases, with two different GRs, the back screen has broken on me carrying them in my jeans back pocket. They were not tight...

At Andrew Schwartz: In most cases it's probably a combination of some peculiarity of the eyes and the visual part of the brain, and maybe some cultural principles formed by biased information that...

I also hope some compassion towards the K3ii and Pentax in general, at least the same people have with Canikony and their peculiarities.

Very good pictures, color and contrast outstanding.

Because they have become jewelry in 90% of cases and uses, like many other redundant objects.

You always have the Z50, same intestines, better grip, and a functional design. But the same lack of apsc lenses. The Z50 is a very nice small camera, but Nikon doesn't believe in apsc as a system....

@robert seso: There is a huge difference between focusing by hand with an only manual lens or doing it with an AF lens. All AF lenses are focus by wire and tact and precision have nothing to do...
