I remember the first 6 months into it were a blast. Grabbing my first DSLR and go out shooting from landscapes to wildlife.
But then, as I've mastered it, I don't have the motivation to go out and take pictures anymore. Everything is more or less the same: Go out, takes hundreds of pics, edit the 5% best, print the 1% best, rinse and repeat.

I get photography is a simple science and anyone can do that, even professionally, but I've tried my best and challenged myself to shoot only primes or different types of photography, but there isn't anything I can't do.
Am I doing something wrong, perhaps?

This is such a damn chore to use, What's a paid alt that doesn't use cloud servers?

After doing intense research, I just found the holy grail cost-benefit wise, camera for portraits and action, that performs in low-light and it's affordable, with professional-tier lenses (also affordable).
Thought on that plus any XF 55 mm lens?

The Nikon D810 and Canon 5dm3 are now over 10 years old.
Where did the time go?

Crazy to think photography sensors were not going to improve at all in the following 10 years after such an amazing run of improvements.

GH5ii, GH6, GH7, G9ii?

WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS?

Why everything is so boring? There's no new exciting/cutting edge photography. Nothing is going on. Even looking at the photos of moriyama and co make me feel nothing. It's nothing special. The sight of my own camera makes me nauseous. Maybe I am done with photography.

>take phone pics
>have set it up to take 3:4 frames
>full mode is 20:9
>when editing the photos I tend to leave it at 3:4 or DIN or 2:3
What is the most aesthetic aspect ratio?
From experience I find 4:3 and DIN to work well for phone photography.

What's the life expectancy of a camera or lens that are used almost daily for several hours?
