Chelsea, a Sony shooter, was only 18 when she married Tony, who was 40 at the time. Does that make her trad?

Is using a 55mm f1.8 for portraits a dumb idea?
I'm looking into buying a zeiss as it's pretty light and small enough so it doesn't cast a shadow with smaller flashes. But most 85mm offerings are double the size and almost double the weight.
Main issue with 35mm etc is the distortion right? But I was told that's a non issue at 50mm, so why is 85 the "portrait focal length"?

Kinda depending on the bone structure of your models. I think 70-135mm is the sweet spot but YMMV

There is no singular portrait focal length, there is no single focal length for any type of photography. You don't have to shoot landscapes at 14mm, sports at 200mm, macro at 100mm, and so on. Portraits are perhaps one of the types of photography that has the widest acceptable focal length range other than landscapes (you could include birding and wildlife but adding 300mm to 300mm only halves your field of view, going from 24mm to 135mm is less than one fifth).
85mm is perhaps preferred for headshots because it's going to result in a blurrier background with the same depth of field (where as going with a faster 50mm means a shallower depth of field and thus you might not get the whole head in focus), which can not only "look better" but also means you don't have to worry quite as much about having the ideal background.
That said I have the 55mm and I really like it. The backgrounds aren't pleasingly creamy but I like the look that it does give. I don't do portraits but if I did I wouldn't mind using it, I'd maybe prefer my 135mm but I'd also have to be a lot further away and that's awkward.

depends on the type of portraits you want to take, headshots are different from upper body or full body or environmental, etc
if you do a headshot with 35mm it will look wonky, because you are so close up, an 85 forces you far enough away that it is not an issue, same thing happens with our eyes
the distortion comes from distance, not focal length, so think of lenses as simply giving you a wider or narrower framing for a given distance
so you stand far enough away to minimize that perspective distortion, and then it just becomes how much of the subject / environment you want to show
i like 28/35 horizontal for environmental portraits, 50 vertical for full body shots, 85 for upper body, and 135 for headshots

Bear in mind that if you go full frame you're going to need lenses 1.5x as long as well, costing you even more money. I'm assuming you're going to be fairly far away from the cars and that reach will be a priority.

No. He’a shitting you. FF and DX lenses of the same quality cost the same. The size is negligible and usually more related to aperture.

I never considered buying DX lenses; they don't seem future-proof. It surprises me, however, that some still recommend APS-C bodies instead of Full Frames. I get the crop advantage, but aren't FF bodies more universal?

I'm not talking about buying crop lenses, I'm saying you would get more reach from the same lens. If a zoom that goes to 300mm is good on a crop body then you now need something that goes to 500mm if you get a full frame body, or 200mm now becomes 300mm, 400mm becomes 600mm, etc.

Other way around desu. FF bodies need FF suitable lenses otherwise you get mad vignetting or in the case of some third party Canon lenses, they can obstruct the mirror and jam shit. I don't think it's a problem with Nikon though.

You'll get vignetting, yeah, but other than that FF is more versatile, picture-wise.
I understand your point, but my problem is whether to mix a FF lens with a APS-C camera.
I'm leaning towards the A7 III (good price in my country) at the moment.

There's no real disadvantage to using FF lenses on a crop body besides them being somewhat larger, heavier and sometimes more expensive than would be necessary.

Since the APS-C sensor is covered by less than 60% of the glass, you're actually getting better sharpness at the edges of the frame.
However, in my personal experience, FF lenses still perform much better on FF bodies. I used to use Canon EF zoom lenses with the EOS M mount and the auto-focus struggled to lock on at longer focal lengths.

Using FF lenses on crop has no real downsides other than you're *technically* using a bigger, heavier lens than you could be, and the focal lengths might not make perfect sense, for instance:
>EF 50mm is $150
>EF 35mm is more like $400 (to roughly match the FoV of a 50mm on a crop sensor)
>Worse so on RF where I spent $600 to get a 50mm equivalent FoV by buying the RF35mm
You don't gain much either, you're more or less just future proofing yourself if you ever jump to FF and don't want to rebuild your lens selection.
I used crop lenses for a bit there because the FLs made sense and they were cheap, but I've since gone foolframe and the only thing I need to change is my expectations for FoV. PLUS you can still crop a FF picture to mimic the FoV you'd have on a crop sensor as a last resort.

whats the different between the two? The f2 aperture, the fact that it's new, and the 4mm difference between the two. I don't see why I should get the f2 one when I can probably just be satisfied with the f/2.8 GM II Lens instead.
I guess im just looking for a more detailed explanation.

Depends on what you're working with currently. Pic related is an absolute must for that mount.
Personally, I'd sell the M50 it and get a lower end full frame body, you can get a really good deal on the R8 right now. If you can't afford that, there are some good second hand options out there, like the RP.

Ah, see, if you're actually new and want to learn then some of us here aren't total pricks.
Judging off the spec sheet alone, the differences aren't major, but they're there. There are also things that the spec sheet wont tell you such as distortions, coma, abberations, sharpness, colour rendering etc. etc.
But purely looking at the specs:
>24mm/28mm is a whopping 4mm of focal length difference (so, fuck all really, despite what >>4392217 says). The Field of View (FoV) difference of those focal lengths is only going to bother :a) professionals who need consistency and already prefer one or the other, or b) turbo retards
>f/2 vs f/2.8
Is not a big number difference, but at such low f/stops this is actually a full stop of extra light. That's kind of a big deal especially when we're talking about a zoom lens. Zooms tend to have narrower max apertures versus primes, so an f/4 zoom is "good" but nothing special. an f/2.8 zoom is pretty decent and often the choice from pros, and an f/2 zoom is actually fantastic.
That extra stop of light from a wider aperture means you could either shorten your shutter speed (valuable for reducing subject/motion blur), or reduce your ISO (which keeps images cleaner with less noise) while keeping the exposure the same.
>Example
ISO 800, SS 1/125th, f/2.8 would have the same total light and exposure as
ISO 400, SS 1/125th, f/2
or
ISO 800, SS 1/250th, f/2

When it comes to the numbers part of photography it can get rather confusing, especially for new people that don't get what's going on. Part of it is because for most things the numbers increase at a quicker rate the larger they get, for the same difference in exposure. For example going from f/2 to f/2.8 is the same as f/11 to f/16, one stop. Likewise going from ISO 200 to 400 is the same as 6400 to 12800, and shutter speed follows the same doubling/halving pattern. For focal lengths going from 14mm to 24mm is a massive difference but 200mm to 210mm is hardly noticeable.

Is it possible to bind AF-ON on recent Canon mirrorless cameras to zoom in to the focus point when using a manual focus lens and to engage autofocus when using an autofocus lens, without having to rebind the button every time?
Does any recent camera support this at all?

Do you mean a manual focus only lens, or an AF lens set to manual focus? With Sonys there's a setting to automatically zoom in when you turn the focus ring so perhaps there's a similar setting on Canons, although it of course requires a focus by wire lens. What happens currently if you press the button in mf, nothing? Do you not have a spare button you can dedicate to zooming in? Could be handy to be able to do it even when in af.

Not automatic zoom (sounds awful tbqh), but just to have the behavior of AF-ON be different depending on what lens is attached:
>Autofocus lens set to autofocus
activate autofocus.
>Manual focus lens, no lens (for dumb-adapted old glass), or autofocus lens set to manual focus
toggle punch-in zoom.
Maybe it's possible with user modes. Then I would just switch between e.g U1 with one mapping and U2 with the other mapping myself according to the lens situation.
>What happens currently if you press the button in mf, nothing?
Yes, nothing - setting punch-in zoom to the multifunction button is the standard option but it's not ideal, as it requires me to take my finger off the shutter button, while keeping the AF-ON button useless with MF lenses. Seems like user modes are the way to go barring a native way of dynamically mapping buttons.

Maybe it's possible with user modes. Then I would just switch between e.g U1 with one mapping and U2 with the other mapping myself according to the lens situation.
>What happens currently if you press the button in mf, nothing?
Yes, nothing - setting punch-in zoom to the multifunction button is the standard option but it's not ideal, as it requires me to take my finger off the shutter button, while keeping the AF-ON button useless with MF lenses. Seems like user modes are the way to go barring a native way of dynamically mapping buttons.

What body do you have, and does it really not have an extra button on the rear you can use? From what I could see it looks like most of the newer (2020+) bodies have an extra magnifying glass button you could hit with your thumb. Are you also already utilising both of the buttons on the top right, the asterisk and box (metering mode by default I think) buttons?

I used to back button focus with DSLRs, but went back to shutter release af with mirrorless and never looked back
Are you that BBF dependent?

Good point about the magnifying glass, I'll try it out.
>>4392285
Yes, I use BBF center point focus and recompose since I'm used to shooting that way on film SLR. Feels natural. But your method is probably better for more demanding situations.
Anyway, thanks all, my question has been answered.

I wasn't aware Sigma made a 28-70mm f/2. The Sony is significantly smaller and lighter than Canon's version, if it's still not enough for you then get the f/2.8.

For cleaning the sensor, are swabs or the blower best? I keep seeing varying shit on forums about blowers introducing more dust, but manufacturers seem to always recommend the blower and tilting the camera upside down.
It makes more sense to me to avoid physical contact with the sensor and the blower seems safest.

You will get autismo replies saying that you need this $80 (brandname) blower that has level 5 biolab spec air filtration on the intake side but yes they're generally good enough but so is removing them in post for the most part. If it's serious, look into one of those cleaning kits on ebay and watch videos on how it's done before you attempt it.

I looked at that but the local stores were going to charge $60 for it. Instead I was trying to decide on a blower or a swab kit, so I'll probably get the blower since even meme tier high quality ones are less than $50.

They do different things. Blower to remove free floating dust, swab to remove stickier debris.
I've done the blower camera upside down method for a decade and had no issues from it. If you're paying more than $20 for a blower, absolute chump.

Just buy some cheap Zeiss lens cleaning wipes, blower, and if your sensor somehow has spots you can buy a sensor cleaning kit for $20.
Most shops refused to sell it (lol) because they want to charge you $80 for swabbing a sensor a few times. I refused that and just went to a more ghetto camera shop and some little Chinese lady was more than happy to teach me how to do it and sold me a kit.

I wouldn't be surprised to see some third party f2's on a few years though. Iirc the tamron 2.8 was effectively f2 but artificially limited to f2.8 as it wasn't up to scratch.

First of all, if you're shooting in manual then don't. There's very few situations where it's actually necessary, just use aperture or shutter priority with auto ISO. Secondly you'll be wanting to look for a setting called "constant preview", other brands typically call it exposure preview.

Why use ND filter instead of higher shutter speed?
Anonymous 12/16/24(Mon)09:29:03 No.4392472
>>4392468
Because eventually your shutter speed tops out. Most consumer-grade cameras top out at 1/4000th or 1/8000th.
There are many instances of wanting a wide aperture to purposefully limit your DoF (so you can't close that up to shut out light), and/or you want a long exposure for a reason to generate light trails/subject blur etc.
NDs are also very useful in videography where you can't really vary the shutter speed either without making things look wonky, so for a standard 30fps video, your shutter speed is likely locked down at 1/60th (which is many stops more light than your max shutter speed)

>>4392468
ND reduce the amount of light getting to the camera, and sometimes you are limited on your shutter speed. Good for long exposures, essential for video, good for shooting wide open with lots of light (flash or sun).

P mode is a meme (just use a phone at that point)
Tv mode is only useful if you're trying to use a specific shutter speed (kinda useless)
Av mode is legitimately useful for taking photos with minimal time to adjust settings
M mode is more useful if you have sufficent time to dial in the right settings.

Usually A in summer/bright daytime
More S during winter, because I hate motion blur
I also tend to use different glass for different seasons. From spring through summer I mostly just stick to 24-120mm f4, because it does everything I need and allows me to compose freely on the fly.
During winter I mostly stick to 50mm f1.4 and 85mm f1.8, just to get enough light. Occasinally, I'll whip out the 14-24mm f2.8 and 70-200mm f2.8, but they are heavy and clunky, so I only use them if I have a specific shoot in mind.
(I live in Norway, so it gets retardedly dark here in the winter)

Lets use our brains with the example above.
>f1.4, ISO 100, 1/200
>8 stop ND filter, AD200 at max power
Say we pick up an SB600 and switch to HSS. We crank our SS to 1/8000 and kill that background, getting us an equivalent to ~5 stops, now we only need a ~3 stop ND.
Say we stop down like suggested from f1.4 to f2.8 (changing the look), now we still only need a ~1 stop ND. You could stop down further, and change the look more. You could get rid of or move the softbox, but that would change the look too. You could let the background be brighter, changing the look.
Or you could just make use of ND's for something they're made for, and pick the look you want.
Also, this is assuming an SB600 (or SB910) in HSS is the same output of an AD200 on full, which is not true at all. If you want a completely different looking picture, an SB600 will do fine.

I assure you, that an sb-600, even in a softbox, will more than blow the fuck out of any face you jam your 50mm into, while still allowing for a high enough shutter speed, providing a darkened background, and a large enough aperture for some background bokeh, while also providing enough DOF to actually get the face in focus, despite missing the eye.

>this is assuming an SB600 (or SB910) in HSS is the same output of an AD200 on full
For ease in the example above, I assumed power output was the same.
An SB600 is more realistically like 1/4-1/3 the output of an AD200 on full, and even less during HSS.
So if you do the above (HSS with SS to 1/8000, to f2.8) to keep the background just as dark, your SB600 subject would be darker by a few stops than the example, so that's another difference you'd have to make up for.
>If you want a completely different looking picture, an SB600 will do fine
Different picture as in moving or removing softbox (and changing lighting entirely) like >>4392572, or you don't need background as dark relative to the subject, etc. If you don't want that exact look you might be able to settle for less with an SB600. HSS is still not a perfect substitute for ND though.

I have a bunch of photos and art that I need to rescale to post here. What is your method to downsize images without messing up quality or the photo/art itself.

You do not need reach, especially not a 200-600, for good wildlife photography
Only for the boring fucking bird-standing and bird-flying detail shits every trail clogging fucking z8/r3 boomer takes to try and get their snapshit featured on the local news. For actual good wildlife photography even 400mm is overkill most of the time unless you are being watched by nature karens that WILL start screaming about "the plannut" if you step on a plant or have a dog near you (despite showing up in a crossover/truck and wearing 100% imported clothes)

When you export, just keep it under like 3000 pixels on the widest size and it should come under 5mb. Disregard the sticky, if you go under 1000 it will look like it's drawn in ms paint.

How am I supposed to shoot low light if I want more of the image in focus? Like that would call for a higher f stop but then im losing light and getting more noise
Also I was told to always shoot like 0.7-2.0 under exposed to preserve highlights, is that legit?

Heh the cats have balls. Obvious answer is increase shutter but much slower than your example and you'd want to be using a tripod. I don't think you really needed more in focus there however.

Manually in gimp, there’s no batch method that always looks good because scaled images also need sharpened and sharpening settings depend on the content and original size. You can batch resize and apply unsharp mask with imagemagick but half the images will end up blurry or oversharpened.
I got so sick of doing this i basically stopped posting. The reason 80% of photos here are /dst/ and /fgt/ is because digishits and lab scans produce photos so low quality it doesnt matter.

How in the fuck do you carry your gear when hiking or backpacking?
I've tried many things.
>camera loosely packed at the top of the rucksack, have to take off ruck to get it out and shoot
>camera packed in separate crossbody that is worn in combination with the regular gear pack, generally by putting on the big ruck first and then the crossbody
>camera is just on neck the entire time
>camera strap is hooked onto the top end of external frame and kept from swinging by just nestling it in the arm, looks goofy but avoids neck strain while keeping constant easy access
>just carrying a Ricoh GR in the pocket
Is there even a solution to this? Maybe something like a chestrig or kangaroo pouch with the usual camera bag style of padded insert? Wearing the rucksack top on the chest if the design supports it? Attaching the camera to the rucksack strap via quick release mount?
>captcha: VV4GR (win 4 GR?)

Camera does not get packed because then it cant take pictures, it’s under a coat at the most protected after leaving an em1ii+12-40 pro out while it rained caused its death (IP rating is for 20 minutes not two hours)
I put extra batteries, cards, and the flash in a freezer bag and throw it in near the top of the pack

I also see that Osprey makes a dedicated camera chest rig. My concern with this would be excessive sweating and/or chafing due to the neoprene padding at the back.

>under a coat
Yes but how? I am also talking about single camera here (previously a 5DIV + 24-105 or small Pentax SLR) although being able to shoot mirrorless+film would be the grail. Carrying the camera on neck is ass no matter how light it is (swinging around) and wearing the strap crossbody will be interfered with by the ruck straps.

It's probably one of the Canon 5D / 7D series. The longer top LCD narrows it down quite a bit, and the shutter release looks like that of those as well.

I think it may be a Sony RX10, there's a few frame where it looks like it says Sony and not Canon, the strap lugs are the typical Sony metal triangle ones, and the viewfinder hump isn't as prominent as it would be on a DSLR. The lens hood shape also looks right. It could also be one of their SLT bodies (A77, A77 II, A68, A99 II).

I do all my hiking with a Lowepro TLZ 70, it didn't come with the chest straps but I had some left over from another lowepro bag. I don't know if I'd shell out for an osprey camera bag, but I do like their backpacks. The TLZ 70 fits my D850 and either the 24-70 VR, 105 Macro or the 300 PF which are the only lenses I have but the bag can expand to supposedly accommodate a 70-200.
>My concern with this would be excessive sweating and/or chafing due to the neoprene padding at the back.
If you're doing any serious hiking, you're gonna sweat no matter what, but for what it's worth the lowepro has a smaller back profile. I've never had any back chafing issues with any kind of bag or backpack and I sweat buckets hiking in the summer.
>>4392836
These make me nervous, a lot of the trails in new england are extremely steep and any kind of slip leaves absolutely no padding or protection for the camera.

What's the best way to get someone into photography?
My sister uses an old coolpix and I want her to graduate to a half-decent camera with manual controls, because "muh one you have with you" isn't cutting it for her anymore. My dad recently got her an iPhone 16 Pro because she said she wanted a better camera, even after I've lent her my DSLR, SLR, TLR, and foldie. But she's still stuck on her old XR.
Also need to get her a camera for one of her university modules.

Get an old DSLR with affordable lenses. She'll prefer her coolpix but at least she can learn without breaking the bank on her boomer camera.

Anything big is not gonna work, some people are just unwilling to lug anything much bigger than a phone with them.
RX100Va or G5X II is the is the safest choice, being the biggest (sensor-wise) pocketable 24-70 with EVF, it should still be an improvement over whatever sub-1" camera she has (unless it's the Coolpix A, which is APS-C, but I doubt that).
Or the EVF-less ZV-1 or G7X.
Or you could try one of the jacket pocketable MILCs w/ EVF (gx80, gx9, a6000 series, a7c) or w/o (plenty mft choices, a5000, S9)

This comparison isn't quite what you think it is:
>>4391966
Notice how the subject is at different distances from the camera in all these.
A 50mm is excellent for portrait photos where you stand a bit further back. It will allow you to get more of the background in the shot, and will still compact the face properly (if you are far enough away).
I often do portrait photography with my 14-24mm, if I am at a good location and want to embed the subject in a larger scene. The trick is just to not jam the camera into a face. And have enough resolution, so you can crop a bit when needed.

What are the actual resolution limits for this board? I'm trying to post a panorama that is under 5mb but it says it's too large. The sticky is fucking retarded, you wouldn't be able to tell what it is at under 1000 pixels on the widest side

Why are fast lenses maximum aperture usually tied to the same numbers like f/1.4 or f/2.8?
Why not make an f/1.6 or f/2.4 lens for example?

next in the row standard aperture opening value will give 2 times as much light to sensor/film, just as doubling the exposure time with shutter speed. these numbers allow for easier exposure mental maths. there exist lenses with max aperture not "even" but it's redarded and why would you do that

They do. But they use standard labels to avoid bothering people.
Most f1.4s are f1.3-f1.5 and the transmission stop is usually much slower wide open (ie: the canon rf 50mm f1.2 l is a t1.5, the sony 50mm f1.4 is a t1.6)

>decided to clean sensor on my camera since it had a little dust
>i wasnt used to IBIS yet, so forgot about it
>cleaned it with just a rocket blower but didnt use swab kit
>realized later i didnt lock the IBIS before using the blower on it
Is there any potential I damaged the IBIS? I imagine if the IBIS can survive the shock of riding in my car and moving around in my bag when I walk, then I'm probably over thinking it, but still.
On the plus side, the big specks of dust are completely gone, so at least I didn't go full retard and use the swab first.

If you want mirrorless and sony that's about right. The a6000 I see go for $300 all the time so another $80 for a lens is okay.
You can also get DSLR cheaper if you want that and don't mind the tech.

IBIS systems are designed to survive jolts from regular movement. If you imparted less force than you would by just picking it up really fast (you did), then there's no risk of damage. It's still good practice to lock it, but it's not going to magically kill itself from a burst of air.

iirc Nikon's 50mm was f/2 for the longest time so Canon was like fuck you I can make the FD 50mm f/1.8 NIGGA. Other manu's followed suit because it wasn't that much of a leap in terms of tooling and development, but going bigger generally started to necessitate better technology, materials, etc.

a7iii lacks the flippy screen so doesn't spark joy or feel fun like the X-T5/a7c do , and the X-T5 will shit itself in autofocus and low light which will be incredibly frustrating considering one used is like double the price of an a7c.

not him but half the rear screen is an af joystick
its actually faster and more precise, and helps keep the camera more stable than using a thumb stick. you can only appreciate this feature on an a7c otherwise your nose would constantly trigger it.

I never had my nose move the AF point with my central EVF and I'm even a left eye shooter, however I had raindrops move it about so turned it off. I hardly ever moved it anyway because I use tracking AF, but of course I have a joystick to do it if I need to.

It kinda is in the sense that you don't need to be as precise with your thumb placement and it's a little quicker, but it's also not as accurate. And there's the issue with it being activated unintentionally. When I upgraded from a first gen A7 I thought it would be one of the things I liked about it but I never used it and it just caused problems, I'm glad I'm not forced to use it.

I guess you didn't like the A7C's grip? In which case why would you buy a compact camera anyway.
you're always gonna be losing some comfort in ergonomics to make up for the camera being 100g lighter or whatever. If weight isn't an issue look into a nikon Zf, fuji crop is still going to be crop and inferior to FF. Used Sony and Canon will be the better bang for your buck

The window on the lens closes and then like 2 seconds later it opens again
Is it actually taking pictures or is my film going to waste also? i dont want to go and develop the roll to find out

I'm editing this photo to get as a print for my mother for Christmas. I'm trying to enhance the brightness of the cats slightly using a radial mask, intersected with a luminance mask to target the midtones, and a subtractive radial mask so I don't colour the background on the left. Is this range suitable? I don't have too much experience with editing and especially with editing for subjects, I usually take photos of landscapes.

Sounds like two different issues if I'm reading that right. Make sure that you're not using the self timer which is either 2 or 10 seconds on those, there will be a little clock symbol on the LCD if it is set. And also make sure that your exposure settings aren't retarded. If you're trying to shoot handheld at 2 seconds, yeah you are just wasting film.

for wide lenses, facial distortion happens when the face fills the frame. might as well shoot center with a lot of negative space on the outer sides. then crop of needed.

I recently sold my FF mirrorless setup since it got no use over all the fujifilm stuff I own. I also recently got into shooting actual film with some old bodies got from friends and relatives. Because of that I have like $2000 to spend on anything.
I have all the lenses I have use for for fuji, and I’d rather buy film or dslr for slower stuff. The problem is I don’t know much about all that. If it helps, my current workhorse film camera is a EOS 300 and it gets the job done ok. So what should I do? It’s my hobby money, so I’d rather just reinvest it into something photography related.

The best nikon gilm camera is the F6, but it basically forsn't exist.
The F5 and F4 are also great, as is the F100.
You may, however, consider a much lighter, but still fully featured F80.
F65 and F75 are dirt cheap options, which lack in that their viewfinders are small and you cannot select between continuous and single point autofocus (the camera automatically decides for you, and won't let you take a shot unless it is certain it has focus). They are nonetheless great, especially for the price.
ALL the mentioned cameras support ALL modern F-mount lenses, auto-metering, autofocus and even VR.
It's basically cheating.
Some of the cameras use stupid expensive C123 batteries, but can be used with battery grips that allow you to load normal AAA batteries instead.

what kind of camera is good for making videos like pic rel, simonfordman on youtube? it's exclusively static shots in a "cinematic" style (I know that's not a thing but I don't know how else to describe it). can any camera do this?

i skipped through one of the vids and im not seeing anything particularly outstanding about the shots. the highlights are also overblown in a lot of it and the rolling shutter during one of the panning shots was seriously bad. not really much thats cinematic about it desu.

My friend recently set up the Sony zv e10 ii camera for twitch streaming. Everything looks great except when she crops and downscales the face cam smaller during gameplay. It makes the edges very jagged. In the picture you can clearly see her fringes gets really weird. The cam is set to 1080p with 50 frames while stream is on 60 fps. Would be great if anyone can point to a solution.

I tried out a Hasslyblat X2D, and read the 130ish-page manual. No customisation whatsoever. No minimum shutter speed. No auto ISO in manual mode. No usable autofocus (worse than Fuji X).
Is it just a luxury toy for retards?
Genuinely confused by the praise it gets.

I am having issues setting up my telecentric lens. Desperate for help.
For those unaware, a telecentric lens is one that should have near-zero barrel or pincushion distortion. But I am still seeing significant distortion. (See attached photo)
I am using a Nikon D5600, Invaritar 59 LGB 450 base lens and 59 LGL 428 attachment lens.
(https://www.artisantg.com/info/MellesGriot_LGB_LGC_LGG_LGH_LGJ_LGL_Datasheet.pdf)
- I am at the correct working distance per spec sheet
- I have tried multiple aperture settings
- I have toggled the cameras shooting menu "auto geometric distortion correction" off and on
What could be going wrong here?

Which of the following do you think would yield higher theoretical image quality:
>APS-C/MFT with top-tier glass
>FF with 2nd-tier glass
I'm asking because I recently tried the 24-105 L on my RP and was shocked at the weight difference compared to the non-L version—and that's the lightest L zoom on the lightest body in the system. I'm frail and find it hard to imagine myself carrying around much heavier than that, so I was wondering if it would be better to switch to something like Oly or Fuji where the top-tier standard zooms are lighter, or just settle for the lighter consumer-grade glass on FF.

Just use what is comfortable for you if that's the case. I doubt you would really notice unless you did a side by side. If all you have is a bulky zoom, you're probably not going to take it out.

Depends, many times, it wont look too different, like picrel (one top/bot half is ff, other aps-c).
FF could have greater DR at lower ISO's, and better noise handling at higher (but if you're DoF limited, that mostly goes away).
A better lens will get you better contrast, flare resistance, sharpness, less optical defects (distortion, abberations, coma, vignette), bokeh rendering, etc.
Lens gives you most of the actual "look", camera dictates how well that's achieved.

I'm the poster who tested the camera. You failed to get the point.
It's extremely common to use a custom minimum shutter speed setting in conjunction with auto ISO, to prevent motion blur. All major brands support this. There's also no excuse for disabling auto ISO in manual mode.
Flash photography is a nightmare, as the X2D cannot focus when the screen is dark (ambient exposure). Other brands do not have this problem.
These are fundamental drawbacks which are neither present in GFX cameras, nor in Casnoykon flagships.
But I applaud DJI for putting a free camera in the hands of every reviewer who might otherwise complain about these shortcomings.

do the two sensors have the same pixel density or the same resolution?
Bit of a trick question actually because if they have the same density then the FF wins on account of having higher resolution which can be downsampled for a sharper image, and if they have the same resolution the FF still wins because it doesn't need as good glass as the apsc/mft to resolve an equal or sharper image.

What's the math behind this? I always see crop sensor advocates saying the opposite, that the sharpness should be the same if a larger sensor and a smaller sensor have the same pixel pitch. That always sounded too simplistic to me since it doesn't take into account the different sizes of the lens and image circle, but I don't know enough about optics to substantiate that

Sorry I got mixed up, I don't know why I said pixel pitch. I think what I meant was pixels per degree; basically the argument would go that for an equivalent FOV and equivalent sensor resolution, the pixels per degree would be the same between both sensors and therefore there shouldn't be a difference in sharpness. But again, that seems unconvincing to me because the glass and image circle sizes are still different

It depends on the situation. Low light the larger sensor wins. In telephoto applications FF will be a pain to use but will be better. In ample light it's hard to tell the difference. Of course bokeh is also harder to get with crop sensors.
I wouldn't consider optimizing though, instead think in terms of "good enough". Look at sample images online. If a crop is good enough go with a light crop kit. You shouldn't be cropping to 100% with any bayer sensor anyway.
You can get small FF kits these days though, consider for example a Sigma FP and some of the new Panasonic 1.8 glass, they're very sharp and as light as top tier MFT.

>I think what I meant was pixels per degree
Pixels per degree is just resolution applied to a specific field of view, assumes sensors are the same size, and is just a measure pixel density. Pixel pitch is what we actually care about, that's pixel density accounting for different sensor sizes and independent of a specific lens.
>for an equivalent FOV and equivalent sensor resolution
Sure, in this case, you will have a different pixel pitch since resolution is the same, and lower pixel pitch is less demanding on lenses. Across sensor sizes, you can either have the same resolution, or same pixel pitch, but not both.
> there shouldn't be a difference in sharpness
Sharpness is lens dependent. The body just determines how much of that sharpness you are capable of resolving. Some combinations of apsc+lens can have greater detail and sharpness than some combinations of ff+lens. If you want the most detail, you want the most pixels behind the sharpest lens.

So is it basically that, for a FF and a crop sensor with the same resolution taking the exact same picture, the crop sensor lens has to resolve the same amount of detail over a smaller surface area, and therefore needs to be sharper than the FF lens to produce an equally sharp image? When I think about it that way it suddenly seems really obvious

True but they're always less sharp towards the edges anyway and (given the same lens) the crop sensor avoids the edges.

Yes. But again, you want to focus on lenses if sharpness is your goal. More demanding doesn't necessarily mean worse, you need to judge the system as a whole.
The sharper the lens and more pixels you get, the better.

As other anons have said: stupidity. Lenses matter the most.
Bodies matter especially if you have issues with time-to-first-frame, effective shots per minute, and keeper ratio.
In the end, what lens and body you need depends on your specific use case. When moving into environmental portraiture, I had to upgrade both the lens and the body, as I needed to work faster, and to capture people looking their best.

You are not more skilled for performing menial camera adjustments with more effort. You are not smarter. You are not a better photographer. In all likelihood you are worse. Good photographers that are actual artists, called directors of photography, hire people if they need that done. They call them technicians, monkeys, operators, and compare them to factory workers and construction crew over coffee.

Not shooting birds in the park or the backs of people's heads on the street where you would even want floating ISO or don't have time to read the meter. Everything that you're screeching about is literally a skill issue and not a "limitation" of the camera.

>he thinks those are skills
Monkeys like you should stick to cars. The arts aren’t for people that love operating machines. A love of operating machines and turning knobs and switches and changing settings never co-occurs with artistic talent. Ever. Racecar drivers, gamers, programmers, server admins, these people who pride themselves on pressing buttons and moving levers and dials better never produce any art. None. The brain wiring that makes you enjoy this blue collar shit is as unable to produce art as the brain wiring that makes an animal live purely on instinct will never let them ask what is the meaning of love

Is correct. If you're doing art or business, you want to spend the minimum time possible fiddling with settings. You will have people doing it for you, and you will have adequate gear.

True, but that's not an excuse to lack features commonly found elsewhere. GFX are also meant for similar environments, but don't lack said features. I can find plenty of posts online from X2D users complaining about those issues, so it seems actual X2D users also see it as a limitation too. You're just arguing it's not important for your imagined hypothetical group of people, therefore it's not actually important for anyone (and skill issue otherwise).
>Everything that you're screeching about is literally a skill issue
Having a feature, or not, is not a skill issue, and is a literal limitation of a camera. Needing to rely on said feature may be a skill issue, but that's a separate thing and you are conflating the two.
Actually, you know what? You're right. Hassy should do away with all metering, autofocus, and priority modes. Manual focus with un-metered manual exposure for everyone. Not a limitation, just a way to weeds out the phoney X2D users, those with skill issues.

The camera does set the auto ISO minimum shutter speed, yes. The problem is there's no way for the user to set that speed. This is a basic feature on most cameras, and virtually all nicer cameras.
One workaround could be to switch to M, so you can force a certain SS, but...

1.8 can already blow it right out but it is noticeable. I kind of regret getting rid of my 50mm 1.8 sometimes because of needing to step down a bit with the 1.4 to actually get something in focus and getting rough edges on my heckin bloody bokie balls.

If bokeh is your concern, you really ought to be looking at how specific lenses render the bokeh.
Here's an example of three 50mm lenses, an f1.4, f2, and f1.5.
f1.8 is plenty for bokeh, especially on more tele lenses, but faster lenses do have advantages even if you would only shoot at f1.8.
>>4394529
Useless answer, but really depends on the lens. I have one f1.2 lens, and I do use it a lot, but I would still use it just the same if it were f1.4 or even f1.8. Most of the time, I'll opt for using a slower lens for size/bulk savings.

faster lenses are for stopping down to f1.8 and getting a sharp image without it being an awful soulless piece of shit like that godawful nikon 50mm f1.8 s (for soulless)
if you’re buying a gay master or cannot L type lens then they are for ticking boxes on the clients list of requests, ie: moar bokeh t. karen

If you like what you have a meets all your needs, you have ascended from gearfaggotry.
I'd hate if all I used was a 24-120 though. Midrange zooms are the most boring lenses ever, and f4 sucks.

If low light is not an issue, uou will never ever need primes. I use my 50mm f1.4 and 85mm f1.8 during winter, and sometimes indoors, but only because it's way yoo fucking dark. The shallow depth of field at the wide open stops actually sucks in 90% of cases. Stopped down a bit they are great, but that kind of forces you into A mode even when what you actually want to limit is shutter speed - which means that you'll mostly be pushed into wide open when your camera thinks it's too dark. I would have loved a hard option to limit how low the f-stop goes. It's also very problematic to not be able to zoom, of course. I thought the problem would mainly be that I cannot zoom further in, but I notice that I'm a lot more annoyed with the inability to zoom out. Often you simply cannot walk back far enough to capture the scene you want at 50mm. Otherwise I stick to my 24-120mm f4, and have done so for over a decade now. It's just the perfect range for composing any shot on the fly.
I also have a 60mm macro, a 14-24mm f2.8 and a 70-200mm f2.8, but they are only used for special occasions. The ultra wide is wonderful for architecture and portraits where you want to include a lot of background, but the range gimps it hard in terms of general versatility. The 70-200mm is technically amazing, but insanely heavy and clunky to lug around. Only ever used for wildlife and sporting events.
In short, for me, primes are just a (shitty) crutch for dark times, and if I could I'd stick to 24-120mm for all eternity.

Not that guy, but if I were you, the only f2.8 I'd consider is the 24-70mm. The rest are too heavy and too specialized to be very useful for general photography.
You will miss the long end of your 24-120mm at times and beat yoursel up over it, though.

Like >>4394531 said you want to look more at how the specific lenses look, including how usable they actually are wide open. For example the Zeiss 55mm, on paper it's almost the same as the Sony 50mm for like double the price, but the bokeh has a rather different look and it's sharper wide open. How it looks isn't automatically better, there is some personal preference and some will say not to bother and just step up to 1.4, but only you can decide what you want.
Also as he hinted at going with a longer focal length can get you a blurrier looking background at the same or slower aperture so you're not sacrificing depth of field as much. Not much point getting a 50mm f/1.2 for doing portraits when you'll only have someone's eyes in focus and their nose is blurry and you could get a better photo with an 85mm or even 135mm at f/1.8.

That's up to you, I use both, but opt for primes when I can. If I didn't do photo work, I would never own even an f2.8 zoom.
If you have a clear idea what you're upgrading for, the answer will be clear. If you're still undecided, you don't need to upgrade.

I own some threaded filters and want to switch to magnetic ones, but a) the prices are terrible, and b) some of my specialty filters aren’t even available in magnetic versions.
I know that there are magnetic adapters but I had a different idea:
What if I took a cheap magnetic filter and simply swapped the glass element out with one from a threaded filter?
I've been eyeing K&F's cheapest magnetic (UV) filter for this – with a bulk discount it's about 10 Eurobucks per filter.
There's only one thing I worry about: I can't tell whether it is even possible to disassemble these filters. Threaded filters usually use a threaded inner ring to hold the glass in place. The inner ring can be removed using a lens spanner. I have yet to see a picture of the magnetic filter that suggests it can be disassembled using a lens spanner.
I think that either the whole thing is glued in place or the inner ring has to be removed using other tools.
Does any one of you own a magnetic K&F filter and would take a look?

Threaded filters usually consist of an outer frame (picrel – bottom left) and inner ring (bottom right). You can disassemble them using a lens spanner if they have these two notches (blue arrows).
I wanna know if the magnetic filters are built the same way so that I can disassemble them, too. Surefire way to tell is if they have those two notches. If they don‘t, try to see if the outer frame is threaded on the inside. If they have neither, they‘re probably glued together and can‘t be disassembled. (thanks btw)

Depends entirely on what you are shooting my dear frogposter. Use spot metering if you have a subject that stands out against a significantly darker or brighter background. If not, than evaluative metering may be simpler but you can still use spot metering to check a few different spots in your composition and then settle on the average you think works.

Using the shutter button a half press in single AF would also lock the metering, so if you're doing focus and recompose that could result in incorrect metering. Using BBF allows you to focus, then recompose and half press the shutter to lock in the metering.

Yeah if you're using continuous AF then you also have continuous metering on a half press, so in that case there's not really any difference. I suppose the advantage of using BBF would be that you don't need to be as delicate by half pressing to focus, you can press the back button as hard as you like and then just full press the shutter to take the photo.
One thing I've never really understood is why there's a dedicated AF-on button on many bodies. With the default settings you'd press that to focus, but then by pressing the shutter button to take the photo you'd either end up refocussing if the camera or subject had moved or if it hadn't then you didn't really have a need to press the AF-on button, it was redundant. I could understand if it allowed focussing when a lens was set to MF but I don't remember that ever working when I had a Canon DSLR and it doesn't do that with my Sony.

It is a bit pointless in that regard. That's why I never used it that way. It does the focus and recompose thing if you never let go of the button though.

It's an extra button to push. It used to be worth it for focus & recomposing. Now that I can rely more on AF without having to focus & recompose, it's less useful. Not hard to understand.
>>4395090
Also, some older cameras could only spot meter off the center point. Again, forcing you to focus & recompose.

Use whatever gets you the results you want. Metering just camera suggestions about settings, nothing more.

It had been so long since I had used the AF-on button I thought it would refocus upon pressing the shutter button, but I just tried it on my Sony (I had the button remapped so set it back) and you're right. If Canon's also functioned the same that makes me wonder why there was even a custom function to set AF to the * button.

I bought a tripod to use with a Canon Rebel T7 camera, and no matter how much I screw thread the camera into the plate on the tripod, it doesn't fully get tight and stop spinning/rotating around the thread.
I assume this is, to a degree, intentional, since it's not like it never engages the threads, you can't just plop it on and off, but it does mean that I can't lock the camera fully in places and it shifts a bit slightly when I touch the buttons on the camera.
How can I fully lock it in place?

So the screw is bottoming out in the thread on the camera before it gets fully tight? That's strange, tripod threads on bodies are typically around the same depth. You could grind down the screw to make it shorter, or put a washer between the plate and the body.

If i'm using a tripod and i'm photographing a still object, what is the lowest I should be going with shutter speed?
There's obviously a point where the shutter speed is so slow that it's not worth waiting around (I did a shot at 15" just now for example and I was standing around for like 30 seconds, and the image looks kinda messed up, a bit worried it let in enough light to damage the sensor?), but i'm wondering if there's also a point where even the air moving around or me shifting a bit 2-3 feet from the camera might still shake tripod/the ground enough to introduce image-clarity-impacting shaking at slow enough shutter speeds?

Actually the longer the shutter speed the less effect a little shake, such as if something was to knock the tripod, has on the final image. A faster shutter speed only makes a difference if it's fast enough that it would freeze that shake.

I want one that allows me to actually change the shutter speed, aperture, etc without touching the camera but it seems some (most? all?) can't do that even when they have a d-pad for menu operation, which they only use for the remote's own settings, not the camera's

I don't understand why this would be a difficult question/thing to make, if you can make a remote that has a button that makes the camera take a picture, why would nobody make one that has buttons to navigate through the camera's settings and options?
How can this be a thing that doesn't exist? It's both super basic to make work (I imagine), and it's a super basic thing people would obviously want to be able to do?
Anyways, yes, I am the same person who asked in the other thread, and it turns out that the Rebel camera actually does have connectivity with the Canon Camera Control app, and that does allow me to change my shutter speed and aperture and shit, but I can't change the shooting mode and it completely disables both the camera's LCD screen and even blocks the optical viewfinder, forcing me to use my phone screen to preview shots, which doesn't work for me because my phone's screen is ass.

Anyways, yes, I am the same person who asked in the other thread, and it turns out that the Rebel camera actually does have connectivity with the Canon Camera Control app, and that does allow me to change my shutter speed and aperture and shit, but I can't change the shooting mode and it completely disables both the camera's LCD screen and even blocks the optical viewfinder, forcing me to use my phone screen to preview shots, which doesn't work for me because my phone's screen is ass.

Those are completely different things and I think you know that. Nearly all cameras used to have a pretty universal shutter release cable.
>it turns out that the Rebel camera actually does have connectivity with the Canon Camera Control app
Use it then.

wot?

First of all, you'd have to know nothing about SLR cameras to be surprised by the viewfinder not working and secondly, why the fuck do you even want to remote control it in the first place of you still want the live view to show up on the camera?
I'm convinced that you're just asking dumb questions for the sake of it now, you've been given answers.

Another likely dumb question: I notice that when using continuous shot mode at very low shutter speeds (EX: 2"), the time between the audible shutter movement is faster then if I were to use single shot mode at the same shutter speed
If the shutter speed is set the same, it should take the same amount of time, right? So what's going on here?
>>4396092
I assure you i'm just really ignorant, not trolling
>Those are completely different things
If we were talking about fully analog or mechanical cameras i'd understand that, but everything in a DLSR is still operated by electronic components at the top level, right? the shutter and such is still mechanical but you pick which via electronic/digital menus? I don't see why telling the camera to take a picture vs opening a menu would be that different to program into a remote
>wot?
Like fully manual vs aperture priorty vs full automatic mode
>you'd have to know nothing about SLR cameras to be surprised by the viewfinder not working
Because the way they work is that the mirror lets the image through the viewfinder, and when taking a shot it moves out of the way so the light can hit the sensor, and light hitting the sensor is how it would preview the image on the LCD screen and/or on the phone? I just forgot that's how they work, I guess. This one really IS just me being stupid and forgetful
>why the fuck do you even want to remote control it...
I wanted to be able to still set the shot up using the viewfinder, but then trigger the shutter with different combinations of exposure settings without touching the camera again. I also wanted navigating the settings to be done through the camera's LCD menu since it's more intuitive then the app's menu, and to be able to still look through the gallery on the camera's LCD display (just navigating using the remote) because my phone screen is ass and it won't let me view the photos at the full resolution wheras I can zoom in on the full res image through the camera's menus

If that is the case and you don't need to be a long way from the camera to remote control it, just connect it to a laptop and use DPP4 remote shooting utility. As for changing modes between manual, av ect. you will have to switch the dial on the camera for that. The other modes have nothing that you can't achieve in manual however and you shouldn't need those as speed doesn't sound like it's an issue. I've never used the app you're talking about but I doubt it has more features than DPP4. And you can use that to zoom in on your laptop screen which is quite useful for macro and macro is really the only use I've found for remote shooting unless you're planning on self portraits or something.

The remote shutter connection is just the same as the shutter button on the camera, it's just bridging a few different contacts. Most remotes are pretty easy to take apart if you wanted to check it out, you'll probably find that it's simply a few strips of metal that get pressed together. What you're wanting would require something like a USB connection and a remote with some processing in it.
>Like fully manual vs aperture priorty vs full automatic mode
Your camera has a physical mode dial, the camera can't move that itself with you controlling it remotely. Sure the camera could technically shoot in a different mode than what the dial is set to but then that just complicates things. There's also rarely an actual need for it, where you can't just turn the dial by hand.
>I wanted to be able to still set the shot up using the viewfinder, but then trigger the shutter with different combinations of exposure settings without touching the camera again.
So then set it up through the viewfinder before starting the app.

And nobody manufactures that? Is what I'm asking for (remote operation of menus and settings, not just shutter activiation) really that much of a niche feature? I have to imagine actual proffessional photographers would have a use for that, especially since a lot of them probably need truly remote setups where they don't have physical access to the camera while taking shoots, vs me just wanting to not shake the camera while taking photos
>So then set it up through the viewfinder before starting the app.
That's what I was gonna do if the viewfinder still worked, but it doesn't. So i'd need to set it up with the virefinder by hand, then connect it to the app, then disconnect, set up the next shot, then reconnect, etc. And the connection process in the app is a pain, so that's not really viable. Changing the settings the app can change is also kinda unintuitive vs the camera's menu, and, again, I can't view the full res images that way
Unless I can use DPP4 or whatever with an Ipad I'll probably just use the basic remote shutter and risk slightly changing the angle of the camera as I tweak the settings on it normally.

Seems like the Ipad DPP express app doesn't have remote shooting, or at least it's not mentioned on the app page (plus it's a paid app)
And the normal Windows DPP4 software requires https://www.usa.canon.com/support/eos-utilities for remote shooting, and the default Rebel t7 isn't listed as a supported model, just the T7i

sort of, the pic is clear as far as the steadiness goes. but like, things are rough or blurry as apposed to crisp and clean edged.
the SuperSteadyshot bars blink non stop as well still. im assuming this is a fault since its not supposed to be constant.

Shutter speed and ISO being equal, will a image with a higher F aperature value SOLELY have more of the image in focus as the F value increades?
Or as more of the image is in focus, does the content that was in focus to begin with also get less clear?
I previously noticed that the latter seemed to happen, but I assumed it was just because as I used higher f values, I had to up the ISO or lower the shutter speed to compensate, which reduced clarity anyways. But now after using a tripod where I can keep the shutter speed low anways to let in enough light to not up the ISO, it still seems like higher f value photos end up being less clear for the content already in focus
Woud an even slower shutter speed help compensate for that?

Higher f number means smaller aperture- less light. But yes it absolutely does mean more of your image will be in focus. Shutter speed and iso don't matter although slower shutter speeds can introduce shake which sometimes will make them look out of focus.

It's more that the camera isn't setup for it, and professionals aren't using a T7. When pros are doing tethered shooting they'll either be doing it wirelessly with an app on a phone/tablet or wired with a laptop.
>me just wanting to not shake the camera while taking photos
Why is it you need to be able to adjust all these settings remotely? Why can't you just adjust them at the camera after you've framed your shot and then use a regular old remote? It doesn't sound like your camera is going to be somewhere out of reach.

There is a point where a smaller aperture (higher f/ number) will reduce image sharpness overall due to diffraction. At what point this will happen depends on the sensor size and resolution, but typically it's around f/8-11 and smaller.

They're superior to DSLRs in pretty much every way except battery life, but even that has got a lot better than it used to be and is unlikely to be a concern.

Is your current setup stopping you from taking pictures? A new camera won't make your photos better.

I couldn't find the classic viewer on my Windows 10 install, but I come across something called jpegview (supports RAW) and it does everything I wanted.

Ignorant rebelanon asking another question:
I've noticed that in the past 2 days, the camera's autofocus isn't working as well, and I've had to use manual focus a lot more. This is especially in the case with the live shooting mode (where the viewfinder is blocked and the preview is shown on the LCD screen), which seems to only able to autofocus to an effective degree maybe half the time.
I thought that maybe the viewfinder/dioptric adjuistment dial was out of wack, but some cursory research suggests the way people calibrate that is by comparing the focus through the viewfinder compared to the live shooting autofocus to begin with, and apparently the live shooting autofocus is supposed to be more reliable then the viewfinder based autofocus (they apparently use different methods)
Any ideas what could be going on here?
Also, is there windows software that allows me to flip through and delete or rename both the RAWs and JPGs at once? On the actual camera's gallery it lists each photo only once, so if you delete a photo it deletes both the RAW and the JPG, but if you just insert the SD card into a card reader it obviously treats both as seperate files, which makes clearing out bad shots more of a pain when the larger screen of a computer is obviously otherwise better to compare which photos came out better or not

still not sure what "better glass" means here

Autofocussing through the viewfinder and using live view do indeed use different methods, as to use live view the mirror that diverts some light to the primary autofocus sensors if flipped up (so that light can instead go to the image sensor, to be displayed on the screen).
Through the viewfinder it uses phase detection AF which actually gives information about how far out of focus the image is and in which direction, so it can be fast to adjust as well as tracking moving subjects. However it relies on precise calibration because the AF sensors and the image sensor where the final image is captured are in separate places. In live view the camera will use contrast detection which measures the actual contrast between neighbouring pixels, with contrast increasing as the image gets sharper and more in focus. Contrast detection is very accurate but generally slow especially with low quality lenses that are lacking in contrast.

So why would the live view autofocus be working less well then the viewfinder AF in my case, and why would both get worse out of nowhere?
I say "worse" but I only started to use the live view the same day I noticed the AF being spotty in generl

What do you mean by less well? Like I said it's slower, and it can struggle in less than ideal conditions. Poor light, crappy soft lens, or even if you subject just lacks contrast say if it's all one colour. Also older and lower end cameras are worse, both because algorithms have got better and because they lack processing power.

I'm not sure there's a more useful way to describe it: Just half the time even after letting it go through the whole autofocus process, the final shots that come out are clearly not in focus, wheras the viewfinder AF works fine like 80% of the time (and worked 100% of the time in the days prior to that)
Also now as of today I notice a spot on the inside of the viewfinder glass, though I don't think it's related to any of this, but it wasn't there before today, so? To be clear by "inside" I don't mean "when I look through the viewfinder it obscures my view", looking through it seems normal, it's if I'm looking at the viewfinder window with the camera down in my hand there's a spot visible that's on the inside.
Anyways, bumping

I'm gonna try DPP4 since I figure if the OS on the camera itself can do it, canon's other software might, but if that doesn't work out other ideas welcome

Do you have it set to continuous AF? Contrast detect can be a bit fucky in that situation as to determine whether something is best focussed it has to pulse fore and aft of that point of focus, so it knows where "too far" and "not far enough" are. That's fine in single AF because it can just stop when it's done, but in continuous it has to be constantly doing it and there's a chance that you press the shutter button when it's pulsing to either of those "not ideal" positions.
On many cameras there will be an option to only allow a shutter release when the lens is focussed correctly, when the AF box is green. It's worth turning this on, you might find it annoying sometimes when the camera won't let you take a photo even though you're fully pressing the shutter button but an out of focus photo is (usually) worthless.

What's a good way to clean fungus from old film (some from 1950 to 1980)? I've inherited some 35mm slides and about half have some degree of contamination.
It looks like wispy strands and I've had success using a cotton bud and 99.9% IPA, but sometimes the IPA wicks humidity from the air and makes the emulsion soft which the cotton bud scratches if I'm not careful.
picrel is a really bad one that I can't fix.

>SOOC JPG with Vivid profile, mainly red/pink tones in skin
>RAW processed using the camera matching vivid profile, mainly yellow tones in skin
Why is this? What am I missing? The idea is to save space by only shooting RAW, but if I can't just easily export them all to look like the camera's processing, there's no point.
