75% is for high quality printing. For online use you may get along with 60% or even lower. Just make your own tests to see what works for you.

Because you will get 20 MB files that are indistinguishable from the 5 MB files. If the files are with a lot of noise @75 I get more than 10 MB files. Usual file size is between 3 and 7 MB.

Verify your compression settings. I prefer 75 that yields 3-4 MB files from my Nikon D7200.. It seems you have more aggressive compression.

50 mm is more suitable for portraits (78 mm) while 35 mm is closer to a normal lens (54 mm). I personally find 35 mm more useful.

You cannot admit you were wrong. Sad.

Take all your photos taken since you have the camera and make a grouping based on focal length used (there are some programs that can do it for you). See where you have more than 90% of photos ...

Only if you confuse depth of field with flash illumination.

ISO has no link to depth of field. Your camera will use one ISO speed. You can calculate the illumination of the flash based on guide number, aperture, ISO speed and distance. Reduce 1 stop or even ...

I said in Romania. E.g. the 16-35 mm f/4L has no hood included nor the 24-70 mm f/4L. Those are $1000+ lenses. In EU, and in Romania which is part of it, all prices contain VAT which is 19% in our ...

For most users the L lenses are not the main purchase especially if they don't have full frame. Take the example of Canon 15-85 mm and Nikon 16-85 mm lenses. Canon doesn't provide a lens hood and ...

Well, Canon wants to make money from everything. In Romania they are the only manufacturer that don't provide hoods on any lens that costs less than $1500. Their lenses are cheaper than the ...

They are important. For low quality lenses the effect is not very obvious. For the rest is is quite obvious (increase of contrast mainly). Kit lenses have no hoods for economic reasons (they are ...

It doesn't matter what light you have at each pixel. You are looking at an image not at single pixel.

Because you have more light the SNR is higher because it is a function of square root of the number of photons. And it is true it has to do with the enlargement (you enlarge less from a larger ...

Remember that you are not looking at one pixel but at entire image. If the sensor generated noise is very low (it was not the case with your old camera) then the main noise source is the light. ...

It's not a bug, it's a feature. See page 196 of the user manual. Canon 800D is aimed at beginners so they reset EC at turn off.

Your FZ80 is already cropped for you.

You have a camera with such a small sensor that your maximum aperture is f/16 not f/2.8 at 24 mm equivalent. So you have to be extremely close to the subject and the background far faaar away.

I don't know for Mac but Recuva saved my RAWs from a damaged SD card.

It doesn't matter what type of camera you buy. It seems after 12 years mirrorless are getting a little better. Still they have some weaknesses as battery life and native lens support. If you don't ...
