Help Picking 4/3 or APS-C System? – Can’t decide Please help 🙏 I’ve been going round in circles trying to decide which camera to buy. As a background, I have had a Nikon D7000 for over 12 years.

Upgrade camera body or just lens? Hi everyone, I’ve been using a Canon T6i with a Canon EF 50mm 1.8 since 2017. I use it for hair photography/ video on my salon clients and hobby portrait photography of my kid. My biggest struggle is that my images frequently aren’t sharp enough. I think some of this is definitely user error as in the moment in the salon I’m rushing and sometim…

Wildlife setup? Currently I have a7c II + Sony 100-400 and I’m looking to upgrade my current setup for wildlife. With the budget I have I could either get myself: – Sony a1 – Sony 300mm f2.8 (I already have TCs) I feel like I’m gaining more by getting myself the 300mm, since what I’m usually missing is the extra reach (I would use it as a 600mm with 2x tc), but…
