Own and have used them all - Sony, Canon, Leica, Fuji. Nothing compares to this little guy. Has reignited my passion to shoot and is now always in my back pocket. Any other shooters feel the same?

Imagine of it had weather sealing and better quality control. Also 28mm is retarded either go 24mm or 35mm.
Anyway.

Yes, the Nikon DL 18-50 f/1.8-2.8

I have adjusted a 35mm SMC Takumar which could not focus to infinity with EF adapter. Was not that hard after finding out how to and improvising a name ring removing tool, like rubber basin cap of right size (I used a plastic cap and piece of bike inner tire). But that of course depends of the lens.

That's weird because all of my m42 lenses focus a little bit past infinity on an EOS SLR without any modification, I have a 35mm Tak f3.5 as well and it works. Maybe your particular adapter is thicker and holding the lens farther out acting as a sort of very weak macro tube.

The zf can use auto-manual-focus (trap focus where you hold down the button and it fires whenever its in focus) at the same time as subject detection. No other cameras can do this at the moment. So the ZF can use leica M mount lenses almost flawlessly.

The sony can't adapt any old manual lenses at all without fucking up the corners noticeably. It can only use new designs.

>Sony files apparently take a lot more work to be processed
Only in lightroom. In my opinion both sony and nikon files benefit from a better default preset from cobalt image or RNI and canon+capture one or canon+DPP is the only full frame color science that's good period.

I like it. Except for the huge Z glass. BUT here's how I cope:
For everyday shooting I have the small 28mm f2.8 - that's compact enough so I can carry the cam all day with me and not really mind the size/weight. It's not as compact as an A7C but it's good enough.

When I take out a bigger lens it's always for dedicated photo stuff so I don't actually mind the size at all. Ergonomics aren't an issue at all when you don't do the stupid one-handed shooting. Just support the lens with your left hand and it's a non-issue. I don't even have a grip attachment.

My only problem is that I'd love to have a compact 35mm lens. 28mm is just a focal length I don't really enjoy. I already got an E-mount adapter (Viltrox) and I'm going to get the Snoy Zeiss 35mm f2.8. According to the internet that lens works well with the E-Z adapters from Viltrox and Megadap. So that sould be my EDC setup then.

I don't shoot manual glass so I can't say anything about that.

What I really like about the Zf is the autofocus. It's finally good enough to get my hyperactive 4yo kid in focus. My Z6II and my OM-5 always struggled with that. With the Zf it's not a problem anymore. But that's a pretty niche use case on this board I guess.

The IBIS is good but not as good as that on the OM-5. And when shooting thunderstorms I miss Live-Time.

If you don't really need the retro style body take a look at the Z5II - it's the same camera in a modern body. I think I would have bought that but it wasn't announced yet when I got my Zf and now I like my Zf so much I won't sell it.

Having said that I'm going also to test the A7C in the future. It's a soulless piece of shit but it's really small so might be the better EDC camera. But then again the Zf is going to get in-camera grain with the next firmware update so I don't think I'll switch away from the Zf. (I recreated some of my favorite C1 looks in NX Studio and nowadays I shoot 90% SOOC JPGs so the grain feature will be killer for me).

Tommorow I am dropping off 8 or 9 8x10 sheets of e100vs and 1 sheet of fujichrome 50D. Very excited to see my snapshits.

I won a listing for 100 sheets of e100vs a couple months ago, so I will not be running out any time soon. Not too bad at like 10 dollars per sheet! :D Look on ebay. You can find plenty of 4x5 slide, even frozen fuji shit.

Shutter fires and sounds accurate, just threw a battery in it and the meter works as well. First film camera so I don't know everything but i'm excited to use it. I ordered a roll of HP5 and a roll of gold to test further for light leaks or whatever else could be wrong. So far love the feel of it and how serious of a tool it is compared to my digital cameras.

What the fuck causes this kind of obvious banding? SOOC Pano using a CPL. I was thinking maybe the CPL was changing the polarisation of the sky as it panned, but I thought the result would be a gradient not obvious lines.

How to make a fat tummy into a slim tummy?
I know the cage transform and warp tools. Those can easily make the sides of the body slim, but the tummy still looks fat (and now compressed after warp tools).

CPL bruh. by pano swiveling you change the angle of the light which changes the CPL effect slightly.
you should just get a Hasselblad X2DII and take proper X-Pan panos with it.

you have those lines because that's how pano in-cam algorithm works. it stitches a shit ton of images together (way more than you do when you do it manually). and because with every different angle your sky gradient looks a little different you get those lines (like you would shift the starting point of the gradient every time by a little).

when it comes to planetary. a refractor would technically be best due to no central obstruction decreasing contrast. realistically getting a large and well corrected refractor is very very VERY expensive and not viable.

For planetary imaging for armatures a newtonian reflector is best. Dont let people tell you to get an SCT they SUCK.

A large newtonian with a nominally sized secondary mirror is ideal. The bigger the mirror the more it is able to resolve details
