Photograph and Camera talk

[Snowy]

Thanks for posting your process. The VSCO Film looks amazing. I'm sitting on Lightroom 2 back down over here. If I ever get serious I'm going to have to keep that in mind. Seriously next level photography.

Was fairly close on my fixed-length guess. only 15mm off, and had imagined f1.8.

I agree with you that the next-gen cameras a hybrid between the SLR quality and portability of hand-held is where it's at. Canon's EOS M for the canon owners (me), is interesting, but still requires crazy ass lenses on no body, so bulky still.

Thanks again!

thanks for sharing loghill
you could get a leica and a lens for less than that camera cost…

[Snowy]

jacoavlu, only Leica digi worth looking at is the M9, which is $6,500 body only.

[loghill]

Sorry, meant a digital Leica. I do have a titanium M6. Sold my M8 to get a used M9 but the prices never went down, maybe they'll drop when the new M hits stores…

[jacoavlu]

haha sorry I assumed you meant film

that's why I posted it as last ha but tbh. I have to admit I'm in love with it as well!

1st one's got something about it too, caught utterly in the moment. His balance is great. Last once classically great. Amazing what happens when there's no internets :O. Well done Finn!

[Finn666]

I don't think it adds anything to the photo
keep shooting finn and thanks for sharing

[natehate]

you know what would look cool in that photo finn is if you just left it black and white nd did his tie and pocket square in color

[Finn666]

yeah, after looking at it for a few more minutes/hours I'm not happy with the outcome at all…think I'm gonna do it all over again at some point! thx gents...

Does anyone have experience with a Sony DSC-RX100?  I'd like to get into photography and it seems to have a lot of good features for an amateur photographer and I like that it's compact enough that I would actually carry it regularly.  Any input or recommendations would be appreciated!

Not a stills camera, but this is what I want for Christmas.

It's a 4K camera for $4K. They write onto SSDs, use standard connections, and all the smarts are in the software. I can see exactly where they're coming from in the design, and it makes sense to me as an IT nerd.

They've also announced a pocket camera, which has a 2.5K resolution for $999. It takes Micro 4/3 lenses, but could be easily adapted for Leica glass.

May have found some money in my company's books to enable a Canon 6D, 24-70 USM II L
