I see the new Sony A7II In my future. The perfect companion to my Ricoh GR.

[Giles]

Oh shit…..........I did not need you to do that D666.....

I think I'm set for life with Leica now :). Just need to figure out if I'll get a film camera next or just keep on as is…

I have been using a fairly cheap Sony DSLR a290 the past three years (and treated it bad, it fell into seawater twice). Since three weeks I noticed that the camera gets hot and empties the battery when I turn it off. A second battery showed the same effect.
-Do you think it can be fixed and is worth it?
-What would be a good option for a new camera around 500€? Eos 1200D, Eos 700D or Nikon D5200?

• I don't need a fancy Display, video function, W-Lan or the like, but would be willing to upgrade from the cheapest models to a slightly more expensive camera, if I can get a better Picture Quality…

Thanks, if anybody can enlighten me.

[Finn666]

Ricoh GR all the way buddy! @Max Power … just ask @derivative666 and @ChuckDenim what they think about it

[derivative666]

I agree

i dont know what the price of canons are in europe. but i would recommend the 7d. canon has been my go to for cameras (film and digital) after i found nikon's dslr too complicated for me. it's a very decent camera although the thing that lets it down is that it doesnt have a full frame sensor. otherwise, it's everything i could've asked for that would match my fav 5d mk 2 just without the full frame.

My "new" camera:

[David_pll]

Took a walk around lower Manhattan & over the Brooklyn bridge last week, still learning but enjoy taking photographs.

[louisbosco]

that's a nice film camera 4c. may i ask if it's full manual or aperature/ shutter speed priority?
i currently have a canon av-1 with aperature priority. though it's a little hard shooting cause i don't have a readily available place to wash my own film.

[4c]

^ Thanks, it’s fully manual.

[louisbosco]

just wondering. do you shoot film often? what film do you normally use?

[4c]

Nope, this will be my first time of using film. Very excited to learn. I’m taking a b&w camera class. For film I have Kodak T-MAX 100 TMX and Ilford Delta (ISO 100), but I am yet to use it. Still need to do a bit of cleaning before I start shooting.

[Finn666]

came out quite nice somehow…even though it wasn't planed!

[Giles]

You attempting a tribute to Leonard Nimoy?

[Finn666]
