As one of the "offenders" apparently - I also recall having dished out praise in equal amounts on previous image posts in the past. The one I remember the most was the red bearded guy in the suit ...

Thank you! I'd say the vast majority (+90% ) of the top level images are Sony A7RII - as one drills down into galleries it's a mix.  If there's any specific image you're interested in knowing, just ...

Helpful hint - While your work is nice and we all enjoy your participation - it's considered bad form to post your own images in someone else's photo series thread - unless they are being used to ...

A7RII/III and Zeiss 85 1.8 - so sharp it will make your eyes bleed.  But right now I'm on a 70-200 2.8 GM kick (also super sharp) - so it changes - depending on what style I'm shooting.

The TEETH!  100% white paint on top?  Try painting with a soft white brush on a blank layer and using the Soft Light layer mode then blend to something a lot less than 100% opacity.  Like 10%. The ...

The reference is extreme shallow DOF along with lots of PP on Rembrandt style lighting and possibly some fill (with catchlight traces removed). The dreaded wrinkle looks like it was micro ...

I'm seeing missed focus.   Either that or something wrong with your lens. Try again with the same setup on a tripod and a solid object to focus on.  (Still life)  this will help you figure out ...

Where?  They are about $2000 new and $1500 used in North America (USD)

Personally, I think this is not good.  Way too harsh on shadow.  This isn't a dramatic scene - it's family photography.  People want to see their faces regardless of all the "flat lighting" claims ...

I've never experienced any mark anywhere I've put them up.  It just presses hard up against it,  the rubber is in good shape and doesn't make marks.  The idea Ellis offered about paper to insulate ...

Made me think of.... https://youtu.be/P8E7_u2qgjE

Not an Adobephobe - using it regularly. But - Another vote for personal choice. What amazes me the most is how people get upset or confused when others don't make the same choices as they do! :-) F ...

Another alternative is buying any one of the versions of Lightroom *before* subscriptions started.  (buying used)   Lightroom 6 was the last non-subscription one on OSX I believe. JJ mentioned ...

Great info - now my head can explode from TMI.

Thanks - that's what I thought but didn't know for sure.

I have a boatload of batteries for my bodies and was wondering if there's a way to check their health - and sort the ones which are in better shape from those that aren't so hot? This isn't - "how ...

OK - yes something sounded off about that. Anyway FF gives you MORE field of view than crop. Use a calcualtor like this online calculator to figure out if your lens covers what you need at ...

Thanks all - I think the idea of refundable with progressive later cancellation penalties works well. Holidays do matter because it's limited time and high demand - at a premium. Dealing with the ...

It seems you're asking primarily for Nikon advice (I can only offer great Sony lens options) - but do yourself a favor and stay away from shooting wider (35) and go as long as you can manage in ...

Holidays are coming and there is a very small window of time in my area where there are many long distance family get togethers.  I'm getting booked up quickly (good) but just a bit concerned ...
