Looking to downsize. Hybrid recommendations? I’ve been a professional photographer and graphic designer for 15 years now. Things have slowed down and I’m focusing on the design side of things. I’ve lost my passion for photography and really want to get back to my roots. Currently have a 5D IV, GH5s and a whole host of big ol full frame lenses. I’d like to get rid of the kit, the size has b…

Does anyone have a clue to why this photograph looks this way? This photo is completely unedited and was take on a Samsung Galaxy S9. Some of my other photos(included in post) have done a similar thing spanning years, months and weeks apart. It almost looks like a combination of two photos. Is the photo file just corrupt?

Good beginning camera for travel & sports? Budget: Under €1000 Purpose: Travelling, concerts and sports (professional wrestling in particular. I don’t care *that* much about getting the moves on camera although it would be nice, i mainly wanna take the entrances, post-match scenes, etc) Extra: Preferably a camera with a fixed lense, since where i live you’re not allowed to take cameras t…

Lumix G7 Panasonic or Canon EOS R100? So, I’ve been deciding which one to buy. Have a budget only enough for $630 (around 37k in PHP), not enough for a better version of the R100, which is the R50. And so, I’m undecided whether to buy the 24.1 MP Canon EOS R100, or the 16 MP Lumix G7. I’d be mainly using the camera for: – landscape photography – sports/wildlife – and a bit of cinema…

What’s the best lens to use for landscape photos? I need some advice on what the best type of lens is for me to get for taking good landscape photos. I will be operating on a pretty low budget but I’ve got just under a year to try and save up for a new lens. I’m a beginner to landscape and still very much an amateur with birds. I have a Nikon D5100 and don’t forsee getting anything newer than t…

Best editing tips to improve these photos? I took some photos today on my Canon DSLR after years of not taking any photos on my DSLR. What are tips on how I can edit these photos to help improve them? I downloaded Lightroom after not using it for 10ish years. Obviously things have changed a ton, and I’m not sure where to start. I’m also open to other editing softwares. Thanks! https://pr…

What’s a better camera for me, LUMIX S5 | Sony ZVE 10 ii ? Currently I’m looking at getting either a LUMIX S5 or Sony zve10 ii. I want to do both photography and videography – 4k 60fps videos (mostly shorter clips no longer than 5 minutes). I like everything about the lumix S5 but the autofocus isn’t great apparently. I don’t know what to think about the electronic shutter (Do the “artefacts” happen o…

Fully charged battery dies in seconds. What could be the possible reason? I charged my battery overnight and when I insert it into camera the battery drains in seconds. Watch video for reference. I clicked around 40-50 photos yesterday without problem and suddenly today this is happening. When I recharge battery a minute and insert it in camera, shows battery full for second and within few seconds it dies. What could …

Is the Sony a9 (or other cameras of the same age) problematic in the long run? Currently looking at either an a9 (1200USD used, 68K shutter) or the a7iii (new, 1400), but I’m a bit afraid of getting an older flagship because of reliability and repair costs – will the a9 be problematic on the long term? submitted by /u/Ok_Membership_9545

Amateur photographers, where do you show your work online? I’m an amateur photographer so I’m mostly asking amateur photographers. I’m curious if most of you post on Instagram, your own website, or some other platform. I don’t like insta given how tiny the images are (and Zuck’s recent policy changes for Meta content turned me off even more). I used to post on an alternative social media platform called…

Is there a way to fix the broken IS on this zoom lens? It only appears when the lens is at its widest, and disappears entirely even with a little zoom. Hello, I recently bought a 70-300mm canon lens and had some issues with the IS when it is at 70mm. The lens will make loud sounds and the image will jitter and jump around in the viewfinder. It only happens at 70mm and doesn’t seem to be a problem if I either zoom or turn off stabilization. Anyone know if this can be fixed at home? Is it an alig…

What lens would allow me to take better-quality photos? Here are some photos I took during two trips to NYC last year, all shot with a Nikon D3400 and the 18-55mm kit lens. I’ve noticed my images don’t appear as sharp, no matter the aperture. Compared to other amateur photographers online, my shots seem to lack clarity. Could this be due to the kit lens? If so, any recommendations for a sharper lens …

Lens to pair with Fuji XT20 10-24mm? Hi guys, Me and my partner are new to fujifilm and looking to pick up a XT20 soon that comes with a 10-24mm and was wondering what lens to pair it with (ideally not too expensive under $300 AUD?). Idea is to have a somewhat compact travel kit to take around for street / architectural photography. The 10-24mm should be perfectly fine for whole bu…
