I have one of these cameras in good shape with all the accessories and apparently these things are an overhyped meme? I had literally no idea. I inherited it and I never use it. Been thinking of selling it and I see that they go for literally $1K+ kek

People can hold still for 1/15 which m43 can do at 60mm (120 equivalent) no problem

To do this on canon you need a $1000 lens and an R6

>nobody sane buys a smaller, better performing camera than the canon RP that is cheaper and uses cheaper, smaller, sharper lenses
>sane people buy bigger, worse, more expensive camera systems
huh?

Honestly if you're a hobbyist here are your options
>poor: E-M1 II, E-M5 II, GM5, 35mm film
>poor but IQ autist/part time pro: A7III, A7C, Z6II
>less poor: ZF, Z5II, X-T5, X100VI, 120 film
>wealthy: GFX100SII, CFV100C+907X, Vintage medium format digital, large format film

These cameras are for full time pros only
>Z8, Z9, R1, R3, R6II, R5, R5II, Z7II, A7IV, A7RIV/V, A7CII, A7CR

These cameras are scams
>RP, R8, any sony/canon/nikon APS-C, DSLRs

annie leibovitz's assistant here, this is basically it, but i'd nix the gfx, it's a good utility camera but the 'blad is so much better and attaches to 500 bodies

What cameras would you recommend, that fit on a pocket and have better image quality than Iphones?

I will be using it mostly for printing photos to place on memory albuns, and maybe like 1 or 2 profile photos...I have a thing that I hate when the eyes are out of focus or blurry in photos, so I think portrait capacity would be important.

Preferably if it's under 600 used and if it has interchangeable lens, even better

So what you're saying is that they only sell more cameras when you move the goalposts and add caveats?

>because never, EVER, ever, EVER, can anyone ever accept that there is a better alternative to micro four thirds or the lumix s9 or whatever
Once again this one lil fella going apeshit on brands literally no one mentioned

I'm trying to understand the "fast lens" appeal

Anonymous Sun 22 Jun 2025 15:09:30 No.4438567 View View Reply Last 50 Original Report

Quoted By: >>4441714

I've been photographing for just two years and I always used f/4 lenses (I shoot Canon) and never felt like I needed something like f/2.8 as I can just either use a tripod or increase the ISO.
What makes fast lenses so desired? Don't tell me it's depth of field, even f/4 telephotos can do that magic bokeh.

It’s “art” for engineer nerds who seek mechanical perfection bc they never took any real humanities courses & are incapable understanding or appreciating interpretation & subjectivity. Every day another one of them brags about a perfect “capture” straight off the sensor with no post processing. Idios.

You've encapsulated it perfectly. Whenever I'm with family, I put on the 27mm F1.2, everything else is too fucking cumbersome or useless. I'm pissed that the A6700 dropped HDR photography.

Cameras should have a lock interface and buttons switch, whenever I handover my camera, people instinctively have to press every button and turn every dial for some reason.

You haven't truly lived until you've shot a perfectly dampened, all metal construction, lead glass elements, sharp yet characterful manual focus f/1.2 or faster lens through a high-res EVF with your choice of MF assist.
By the way, my 50/1.2 is sharper at f/4 than my 24-105/4 at 50mm. The same goes for my 28/2.8. And yet both of these lenses BTFO the zoom when it comes to character too. inb4 zoomlet cope

its diabolical the way some "professional" photographers can take $10,000 150mp cameras and create tasteless stuff that looks like it was poorly shot on a shitty disposable digital camera from 2007 and claim its their vision

It's not the algorithm problem per se, it's the taste of the algo consumer itself. People want to take better photos, they-choose they easiest path, which is buy gear instead of investing in betterring oneself. I buy better camera I take pro pictures... Therefore algo pushes camera reviews intead of framing lighting pictures

That completely depends on your location.
100F shade in Phoenix? Perfectly fine.
100F shade in Miami? You're gonna melt.

don't mess around, especially if you aren't acclimated to high temperatures. i'm moderately acclimated to heat. i shot for about 6 hours in 90-103 last month. drank like 3 liters of water (not enough) and ended the day with a headache. i'd suggest starting with a few minutes in the heat and gradually working your way up to a few hours

True answer: get one of each.
I have a Sony a7ii (full frame) and a Pentax K10D (APS-C). Get one kind or the other to begin with and then get the other kind down the road.
