You can't use TTL [through the lens auto] with that combination. [or probably any auto mode]. That places you back into the pure manual flash days, calculating the proper f stop based on ...

I said no pixel peeping ;-) I was also excluding side by side reconstructions of the same scene, captured with different hardware. That would violate the spirit of a 'double blind' test. I was ...

I would like to see some sort of 'double blind' test to see if [without pixel peeping] a viewer can reliably pick the image sensor size use for a photograph. Images presented using the same aspect ...

I thought it was F unny I talian A ttempt at T ransportation [former FIAT 131 owner - could change the 'organic' brake pads in 30 minutes - a good thing when they only last 20k miles. I did prove ...

I seem to recall Ilford B&W film had both ASA & DIN printed approximately the same size [at least on the bulk film rolls]

For the same reason ASA and DIN were capitalized on film boxes :-) And ISO == International Standards Organization. For Film it happened to be the same number as the ASA film speed rating.

I was looking at renting the 12-100 f/4 for an upcoming trip - and I saw that a firmware update for my M10.2 added some support for the lens. Not the full dual/sync IS available with the fancier ...

Note that the : mount system will provide an official [Sigma] EF to L adapter.
Next they need a supported F to L adapter - compatible with some important subset of F mount variations.
Both Canon...

For street photography inspiration, you may want to look at Robin Wong's blog postings - starting with https://robinwong.blogspot.com/2015/09/5-reasons-why-your-kit-lens-is-awesome.html

You may want to bring this to the micro four thirds forum as well. No lens will give you the effect of stepping closer [the so called 'zoom with your feet' advice], but different focal lengths will ...

Diffraction is not a property of the sensor - its from the light passing through an aperture - Wiki has an article on the 'Airy Disk' diffraction pattern of an optically perfect lens ...

Micro four thirds, with an Olympus 75 f1.8 lens? [similar field of view to a 150 mm on full frame. There are also 60mm f2.8 and 40-150mm f2.8 options [and manual focus options]. I don't worship at ...

Olympus has a non gear specific series of posts about portrait photography on their website. See ...

The GH4 does not have the 'in body image stabilization' [IBIS] found in current Panasonic [and Olympus] bodies.  Instead the older bodies depended on in lens 'optical image stabilization' [OIS]. Im ...

Then you are saying explicitly that you do not want an optical viewfinder . Then your best match is a camera that has an electronic viewfinder 'in the corner'. [So called 'range finder' style.] Thi ...

This acceleration is precisely the 'signal' that allows a gyrocompass to find true north [when located sufficiently distant from a pole].

With the ‘optical tunnel’ viewfinder, if you look closely you will see that the frame lines shift as the lens is focused. This provides an indication as to what the lens will capture. An ...

That is likely what was meant as the limitation. As a 'thought experiment'  say you are taking a long exposure [several seconds] hand held photo with dual/sync IS of a distant static subject ...

A bit of a reading assignment - save money and see what the kit lens is capable of before spending more money. A couple of blog links from Robin Wong https://robinwong.blogspot.com/2015/09/5-reason ...

I don't know if the proper reply is 'How Quaint' or just 'Wow'. I hope the inside of the cameras are more robust
