I shoot black and whit 'art' photos. I print a lot. So i spend a lot of time looking at the details of each photo. especially if they're hanging on my wall. that being said, i have a conundrum which, surprisingly, isn't well covered on the internet:
>would you say a leica monochrom, or a medium format (with more bits and more sensor real estate) would produce better black and white images?
Continuous LED lights are terrible for photography. This is an approximate $2400 600watt continuous LED light. At a distance of 2 meters, it can manage 1/60 iso400 f8 at full power. That converts to f4.8 iso400 1/200 if you wanted to get up to a barely usable photography shutter speed. And if you want to go down to iso 100, you are now around f2.8
So $2500 gets you something barely usable on your lowest settings at approx 2 meters, any further distance and it wont work.
And if you want to use any modifier at all its all over and you wont even be able to have enough light for a photo.
In before just shoot at iso 1600, no thanks, im not spending $2400 just to have to use iso1600.
Are CCD bridge cameras the best way to hop into the CCD trend? I don't want to have to get APS-C lenses for a CCD SLR and digital point and shoot seem terrible. Anyone have experience or their own shots to post? TIA
I am going to buy one as soon as they hit the market in early Novemeber. I hope I get the 1987 edition. It's fire. Which one are you hoping to score? You are going to be getting one right /p/? You aren't gonna be a contrarian try hard no Charmera /p/haggot are you /p/? ISHYDDT
Hello dear users of this platform, I would like to share my art made in Paint, of course, it may not be perfect, and yes, I translate all of this through an online translator, because I'm not exactly American and, in principle, not from Western countries, I drew this art with a shaking mouse and my hand, because it is not a stylus with which you enter on a graphics tablet, I may have already tired of you with a large number of words, but that's all I want to say, and sometimes I will post here and write in new threads expressing my thoughts, because I may not be completely alone, but in my soul I am surrounded by an emptiness that I do not know how to fill, so I think someday I will fix this problem, and even though I most often have pissy thoughts, I believe that I can improve, have a good night or day ))
This is the review of an OM-5 micro 4/3 camera. I am a full frame user, and I bought this camera to have a small, fun, attractive camera to take snapshits around town. I own or have owned a D850, Z5ii, Z6ii, basically every Nikon DXXX DSLR, D500, Z50, etc. This is my first M43 camera and I was not sure what to expect, so I am chronicling my impressions both for myself, and for other photographers who are looking for a small, fun camera.
Ergonomics: This camera is outstanding IMO. For me the Nikon FF cameras are in this weird middle spot that is ergonomically uncomfortable for me. They are either too small or too big. The D850 and my D7500 fit my hand fantastically. I will always have a Nikon DSLR because they are so comfortable to hold and use. The OM-5 is smaller to hold than my Z5ii for example, and that gets it out of the uncomfortable middle ground. With the Z5, I’m always between holding it in front with all of my fingers, or just 3 – there isn’t really enough room for all 4, but with 3, it feels a little insecure. With the OM-5, three fingers fit perfectly. There is enough grip on the front and a great thumb rest on the back. The buttons are very well placed on the camera body for operation while shooting. Simply put, this is a very comfortable camera to hold and shoot. For reference, when I am walking around and shooting, I grip the camera the entire time in my right hand, and have a wrist lanyard for safety. This can be fatiguing with a larger DSLR (the D800 in particular had almost no thumb rest and it was agonizing to carry. The D850 is much better, but is just heavy and gets tiring on the wrist after several hours). The D7500 is extremely comfortable in this regard because of its blobmera shape and light weight. The Z series FF cameras are in the middle ground of just “ok”. The OM-5 was very good.
