Neither could most of them the first few years before their skills gradually paid for the upgrades. Your tools are excellent for training those skills in the meantime. You're young, try to get ...

Did you pre focus and lock with AFL or did the camera try to focus on its own when the self timer went off?

The smallest prime lenses in a system are often around the normal 43mm (focal length = diagonal of the sensor), so I don't see why. The closest example here would be the Sigma dp APS-C series, ...

Not optically, just that per pixel sharpness on the Panasonic will be even higher.

It may be the sharpest lens available in *any* system. At least it beat their record for sharpness when it was tested by Lenstip: https://www.lenstip.com/595.4-Lens_review-Sigma_A_105_mm_f_2.8_DG_D ...

Nice design indeed, but if I didn't already have the Sigma fp with the 45mm f/2.8 I'd be very, very tempted by this normal length Ricoh. Wonder how good the JPEGs are from the new in-camera RAW ...

I'm sure L-Mount accounts for a lot more than SA Mount, which they prioritized during the DSLR era.

How about a full frame equivalent of the m43 Panasonic Leica 25-50mm F1.7 ASPH?

Faster by equivalence doesn't help, though, if you want to use the lens on APS-C first. That's the frustrating bit... But the Samyang is a good candidate if you want a longer focal length, since ...

A great choice if you're willing to accept that it's APS-C only. Full frame alternatives tend to be larger, heavier and/or slower, plus cost more. Sigma's full frame alternative is the compact 35mm ...

Because then we know that they're eagerly waiting to post the review of the lenses that they cannot mention but we all know are the 24mm F2 DG DN and 90mm F2.8 DG DN? Looking forward to it :)

16:9 may be a compromise, but a popular one - not a single wider TV model has been a commercial success. Also, even before COVID, streaming was overtaking Cinema in revenue globally, so 16:9...

Must be for the people who can't let go of their 2009 Philips 21:9 TV because they can't find a new set with 3D glasses?

It gets weirder, the "tele" camera of my Samsung Note 20 5G, same as in the S21, is a 28mm equivalent. It's a 64mp module, so good for a lot of cropping, but it starts at about 28mm. I also use the ...

In reality the 45mm is a bit better than 1:4, Sigma are conservative in their marketing. The same may well be the case for the 90mm, we'll have to wait and see. Keep in mind focus shift, so the ...

295g is *very* interesting, and it shares filters with both 45mm and 24mm f/3.5. Maximum magnification is 1:5, worse than the 45mm, but in theory it should benefit greatly from a close up lens. ...

https://twitter.com/nokishita_c/status/1430768740447113220 I thought it was hard enough to choose between the 85mm f/1.8 (Panasonic), the 85mm f/1.4 (Sigma) and the 105mm f/2.8 (Sigma), but will be ...

Consistently. Stills mode.

Yes, but that's probably because the camera with firmware 1.0 was set to produce 12bit DNG files or was saving JPEG only. Firmware 3.0 does the same, just configure it to 12bit DNG for stills ...

Part of that combination is to set the shutter speed low enough as I wrote above. For example M mode with 1/15s and ISO fixed to 100. Then it works for me with a non-TTL Metz 20 C-2 flash and fp ...
