The best lenses to have are the lenses you will use. If your experience tells you the 'standard' lenses will remain mostly unused, there's not much point in hanging on to them just because they ...

With most cameras, you can choose how you want the file numbering done: continuous or reset to 0. Something the user can set up in the camera's menu.

What makes it a bit difficult is that the OP only states he has a film camera with "a couple of EF lenses", but we have no idea which lenses he already owns. The 18-55 is usually wide enough for ...

The original 5D was one of the best DLSR's around at the time it was introduced. But: that was way back in 2005. The oldest 5d's are approaching 20 years of age. No matter how reputable the seller ...

I think the easiest way is to just post the same question in either the Sony Mirrorless Lens Talk forum or the Third Party Lens Talk forum.

According to the spec's on Nikons website, the P1000 has a minimum focus range varying from 0,3m. at 24mm. to 7,0 m. at 3.000mm. focal lengths. So with the variations in DOF taken into ...

If I were you, I'd post this in either the Sony Mirrorless Lens Talk forum or the Third Party Lens Talk forum. You're more likely to get the appropriate answers there than in this Beginners ...

Looking at the photo you shared I don't really think this lens is suffering from fungus. It's most likely some other cause. Could be damage to the lens coating if it's on the outside of the glass, ...

Agreed! However, if you're shooting indoor events (like for instance bands performing on stage), working with small(er) apertures usually will be quite a challenge because there hardly ever is ...

Maybe it's me, but I really don't understand exactly what point you're making here or even what the exact story is you're trying to tell here...

First, you might want to know that the D3x00-models are not the best choice if you want to use vintage manual lenses like the Nikkor E-series. They have no coupling lever for AI(s) lenses and ...

Looking at what you're writing here, my three possible choices (which I've all owned and used extensively) would be, in order of preference: https://www.dpreview.com/products/tamron/lenses/tamron_7 ...

Well, it's not quite clear what exactly you're asking here. I gather you're thinking of becoming a pro photographer. Be prepared to work very hard for very little money at first. As long as you ...

The OP stated: "Needs to be compact". I have the RX10-iv, it's a brilliant camera but whatever it is, you can't accuse it of being compact...

If weathersealing is no dealbreaker and you believe you're not gonna be happy with the zoom range of that G1X, how about a Sony RX100 RX100 Mk. VII? It has a 2.8-5.5/24-200mm. Zeiss zoom lens, ...

If I had to choose between these two, I'd take the Tamron. For 'universal' use the fact that it starts at 50mm. makes it a bit more flexible, although personally I'd rather have a lens that starts ...

The Sony RX10-iv is an amazing camera. It has an impressive zoom range, very good autofocus, an excellent quality and relatively fast Zeiss lens and all the features you could want for. I have and ...

The A7c would probably be a strong contender. But: it's not just the camera that makes for a good travel setup, it's also (and maybe even more so) the lenses you're planning to buy with the ...

+1 Depending on the camera the OP is using, setting that to 'Portrait' mode (if available) can usually even out too much sharpness. And I know several professional portrait photographers that use ...

Nothing to add to that. Using a card reader is the easiest, fastest and most hassle free way to transfer images from your camera to any computer.
