I love almost everything about my G6 and think its the most under rated phone. One problem for me its the battery. Anyone else feel disappointed with the battery life? Does anyone have solutions?

I bought a Fujifilm XT2 and was very excited but have the following issues with the camera and Fujifilm - Hope Fujifilm developers read them.

​Here are my complaints;

1 - Slot 1 and Slot 2

Slot 1 and slot 2 produce identical file names for different images and confusing IMac into believing its duplicate data.​ This is a hassle for a professional photographer as we want to minimize any chances for error, I suggest to have the number identifying individual slots or better - have sequential file naming.

2 - Fujifilm Remote

WIFI is great for shooting images but horrible for picking them. It does not produce a gallery where one can rate the images or pick them for review in photoshop. Canon remote has a great system for picking images after long shoots or for clients.

3 - RAW Files

Raw files can't be seen on Imac or the fujifilm remote system.

4 - Terrible online customer service

I asked questions with customer service and they seem apathetic and late to respond.

Steve Jobs would be the first to say "Crap" towards the iPhone 7, not all is bad, some improvements with the camera - but I lost all confidence in the phone due to the new wireless earbuds that are worth an additional $150.00. It's junk and if one component is junk than we lose faith towards the entire production.

iPhone ended the ear jack and came out with some ludicrous replacement like the ability to have ear jack if one were to purchase an additional item or we can purchase a wifi system that sounds crappy or buy the ear buds that look the same but without wiring. It looks like a real stupid idea it kind of reminds me of a science fiction b-movie invention.

Steve Jobs would have had a hear attach.

Thank you all for your submissions.

It says it has wireless, does anybody know if it has wifi? I love the wifi feature in the canon 6d and would like to continue if I do decide to upgrade and I may due to the focusing system although I hate the extra megapixels.

Maybe I should have called it " Seawall Life ", but its too late to change it now. My apologies for not being clearer.

Image Microadjust seems like a must for portrait photographers like me.

Hi Buzz,

Thank you for letting me know that its not clear. I am adding another sample image to help people realize what I am requesting in this challenge. I want images of a scenery or people by the individual cities seawall. Not all cities have a seawall but most do.

Looking forward to seeing your work

Congratulations to everyone who joined this Challenge. Looking forward to the final result, today.

Cheers,
Carlos

Outstanding

Thank you for clarifying it, yes. Anyone in the public.

Some people believe that a headshot is a picture of people's head. It make sense by the name, but that isn't true. Please do not ask me to disqualify images because its not a picture of someone's head.

"A head shot or headshot is a specific type of portrait (usually a photograph) that realistically demonstrates a person's appearance for branding or casting. Many head shots are promotional pictures of actors, models, authors. Headshots could be a portrait of a face or full body with a background that clearly illustrate the personality inside the person photographed."

I like to call a headshot a "modern portrait", while its still a slang word that was passed from the movie industry for actor's needing a portrait ( 8X10 ), for auditions. It will soon become a word in most dictionaries.

"Sasha in Studio" is a headshot with paintings in the background. Completely acceptable entry.

Hi Maiti,

We had 5 pet headshots submitted and I contemplated disqualifying them. Next time I will specify not to post pet headshots, but will accept their submission this time around and see what the voters say?

Hi Mario,

We are accepting either. The only image's I am not accepting are images of group's or an image where the subject matter isn't clearly seen. It has to be a portrait of a person... Or an animal ( will accept it this time around ).

After a long thought about it... I have decided to keep the pet headshots, not to upset all the contestants that submitted and allow the general public to decide. Our next challenge will be " Pet Headshots ".

Cheers,
Carlos

Hi ArtAlt,

I am so glad you wrote "deficiencies... tend to get underplayed...". I had that experience when I bought my first DSLR, it was actually called a ZDSLR in those day's. I bought the Olympus 20 D, where the reviews were outstanding and everyone failed to stress how horrible the wait after 3 frames would be ( a minute and a half ), a lifetime when I was photographing Weddings.

LOL, great answer Tyler... (re hip )Yes, I was thinking the same thing... those carl zeiss lenses are quite appealing too.

Will Sony be looking at Canon and Nikon throw a rear view mirror, in the future? I am considering switching all my gear from Canon to Sony, like I did in 2002 from Nikon to Canon due to Nikon's delay in understanding the Digital Revolution at that time.
