Is it a good idea to get into M4/3 as an (almost) beginner photographer? I used to shoot quite a lot a couple of years ago, using a Nikon D5600. Now I want to get back to it, but my interests have shifted a bit and I’m looking for a small rugged camera that I can take outdoors, cycling and on trips. The OM-5 seems to fit my requirements the best, but my main worry is if I won’t be buying into a dying system. From my …

Should I change my Pentax K-S2? Hi! I’ve had a Pentax K-s2 for many years, along with Pentax 35mm, 50mm, 55-300mm lenses, and a Tamron 17-50. Despite owning all these lenses, I almost always stick to the Tamron, either out of laziness or because I don’t like carrying too much weight. Perhaps out of whim, I’ve been considering upgrading and changing cameras. I’d like something …

Peak Design Travel 45L vs Shimoda Action X50 V2? Hi, I’m trying to decide between the Peak Design Travel 45L and the Shimoda Action X50 V2. My biggest issue with the PD is the camera cubes because I have large lenses (Sigma 85 Art HSM, Sigma 40 Art HSM). I wouldn’t be able to store them vertically in the cubes, which means they’d take up significantly more space in the backpack. On the other h…

Looking for a DSLM. Any advice? Hi you all! I love photography but used now for a long time a Canon EOS 1100D with a Tele Lens from Tamron. Everything worked well now for years, I took great pictures especially with the Tele Lens. What bothers me is the size of it and that photography at night without a tripod wasn’t good at all – in the end I used often my iPhone (12 Mini, n…

How to improve sharpness with Tokina 400mm reflex telephoto lens? Hi everyone, I’ve got a SZX SUPER TELE 400mm F8 Reflex with a 2x extender. I am pretty excited about it, and chose it since I was looking for a low cost lens that could be used for landscapes and moon photography.

dji 3-axis gimbal or osmo pocket? I have already asked and received a bunch of responses from my friends, majority recommending anything Dji. Some are swearing by the osmo pocket camera, but i was thinking i wanted a gimbal that is for a camera, which I have a nikon d3500. I’ve been told the charging takes too long, it’ll be too heavy to hold consistently, but I thought i would …

Which RF lens for macro and portraits: Canon 24mm, 35mm, or 85mm? I’m a total beginner and choosing my first lens for the R50 to start shooting with. I’ve narrowed down my search to the three RF lenses mentioned but can’t decide which one would be best all-round for everyday use: I’m really interested in macro so I’d love the best possible tool for that among the lenses (I can only afford one). But I also ne…

Sony LA-EA5 vs EA4,3,2 for a6100 to Minolta AF? I have a Sony a6100 and a handful of old 1980’s A-mount Minolta AF lenses (previously used with a Sony a100) that I’d like to adapt. Sony makes a line of adapters for old A mount lenses to modern E-mount bodies. My issue is I’m not sure which one I would actually need, and there’s a sticker price difference across the series. I did find this pos…

Sony ZV-E10 or A6100? I’m a beginner looking to start my journey with Sony cameras. I’ve narrowed it down to two options: the Sony a6100 and the Sony ZV-E10. The a6400 is out of my budget. While the ZV-E10 is often recommended for its superior video capabilities and slightly better specs, my main focus is photography. The ZV-E10 lacks an EVF, but that’s not a dealbre…
