Boomers like them because Jack at Walmart said they're good. Jeets try to become brand ambassadors for everything. Nobody else cares about MFT.

>>4400577
Who cares just use what you like. Take a photo for fucks sake.

>tons of people do portraits with 70-200mm f/4 lenses or 70-200mm f/2.8 lenses stopped down a stop
Yes, on full frame bodies. You just answered your own question.
MFT really only excels in high light environment. They're great for wildlife and environmental shots when in good light and can do portraits in a studio type setting with high light, but when it's mid/poor lighting indoors? It's joever.

Every sensor type has it's cons and pros, even FF/MF. If you like MFT, use it and enjoy it. That's all that matters.
If you can keep iso low the reach you get is pretty crazy on MFT. But once you start getting into 1600iso+ it falls off hard compared to a FF but with MFT you get a smaller body, generally smaller and cheaper lenses.

For example a OM-5 at 3200 iso is comparable noise and DR wise to the R7(aps-c) at 6400, and the R6mkii at 12800iso. But if you understand it's limitations and work around it, you can produce some great stuff.

Micro four thirds photos have unfixably gross contrast and get really bad color casts. Just a pattern i’ve noticed.

>>4400577
Because I have my phone

>>4400577
Because most photos have a weird radial blur effect on fine details, the contrast from the crazy low DR base ISO and forced tone mapping on raws always looks weird (open an om-5 and a z6ii raw both in capture one and look at how identical settings create such different contrast, and how lengthy it is to fix without it looking even worse), olympus and panasonic colors are really bad (sony colors are good btw), and a lot of the cheaper, smaller lenses that aren't FF/APSC sized and priced have bad coatings that pick up color casts from the environment, ie: grass.

Also really nervous bokeh and flat rendering galore

"Equivalence" and SNR based DR measurements can go fuck themselves, the same photos with "le equivalent" settings just automatically look better on a global and local level if you shoot with even the shittiest full frame camera like a canon 6d.

Image from M43 is awful. It's flat and looks like the photo was taken by a mobile phone. Or maybe people using M43 are just bad photographers? Anyway, I have yet to see a decent photo taken with one of these cameras.

>>4400660
Magazines only need tiny images and the printing is comparatively low quality. You could get phone pics published in a magazine if you tried hard enough.

>>4400577
>why is it just boomers
because they need a lightweight system due to their age
>browns
because they need a cheap system due to their income

I'm not a good photographer but I can do macro and tele with my mft gear and I like using an actual camera instead of my phone. I don't need better and deserve worse tbdesu, sometimes I consider getting something like a tz90 and only using it. If it were weather sealed I probably would.

>>4400660
Terry was a pervert with tribal connections and his style was, specifically, taking really trashy looking, grainy photos with harsh contrast, flat rendering, and nasty colors.

So you're actually agreeing with everyone. Micro four thirds is the tool for the job if you want minimum IQ. Even at high ISOs, full frame is too good.
(note: terry shot a lot of his slightly less trashy work on full frame canon DSLRs)

like for fuck's sake come on

>>4400853
Sony colors *are* and *were* good. They just don't shift everything orange like canon to hide how unhealthy your model is SOOC, so americans primarily shooting people with high blood pressure see the same blotchy skin people have IRL.

>>4400853
Sony colors are good tho. Fuji too.

Olympus colors now, they’re pretty awful. Panasonic has improved. Nikon and canon went downhill.

>>4400693
You deserve whatever you like using and makes you happy.
>sometimes I consider getting something like a tz90 and only using it
Superzoom compacts are still neat today but if you've already got an ILC there's no real reason to downgrade like that, especially if you do macro and tele stuff- you'll miss the flexibility of dedicated lenses that are good at those extremes instead of one hardwired ""Leica"" lens that's so close to every other superzoom 'smudgy at the wide angle, hazy at the advertised super tele end, and no faster than f3.5.' The compact to look at would probably be the LX100 with its still 4/3 sized sensor and much faster lens, but it's a weird quirky little thing and that's probably why they rebadged it as a Leica, removed several buttons, and sold it at 100% markup.

wow, you zoomers are faggots. and magazines require better image quality than any pic you've ever taken needed, fag

>>4400894
>need need need
I need as much quality as I want. Purge your mind of marxist thought. Deserve and need do not exist beyond life liberty and property, the basic prerequisites for an adult person. All other deservings and needings are things prescribed to children by their parents to teach them lessons about working to earn things instead of giving them whatever they want (or nothing at all). In the real world, where legal adults live, there is only want, and can afford.

>>4400577
>boomers
Brand loyalty. I have noticed this trend when buying used gear in lots. Often you will find several generations of tech from the same brand bundled together which shows that familiarity plays a role. Those boomers probably had 35mm Olympus gear back in the day and didn't do much research about sensor size and such in the digital era.

>>4400660

>>4401120
>If you can shoot in base ISO a micro43rds is going to be just as good as a FF
This is how it works on signal to noise ratio charts generated from resized images

But not how it works in photography. Every single OM-1/G9II photo I see looks like garbage, even worse than low DR FFs like the Z8 and lower DR R5II. There is more to the way an image is rendered than the averaged signal to noise ratio of the entire photo. Way more. There is the signal to noise ratio of each pixel, because colors are guessed from combinations of pixels. Larger pixels are more sensitive and receive more light even at "equivalent" ISOs. There is way pixel size relates to sharpness, which influences optics design (crop lenses need more corrections which sap a little light and shift colors if you're not buying a $1000 piece of glass). And there is, of course, sensor technology. Only the G9II, which costs as much as full frame and is larger than some full frame cameras, actually has an up to date sensor. That leaves the sole advantage lens size which isn't really an advantage.

I shot micro four thirds for YEARS and no matter what your charts ever said, equivalence doesn't actually work between most cameras. Even a 45mp FF has larger pixels than 20mp m43 and the difference in color quality, especially if you don't spend $1000 on a prime for fucking m43, is obvious.

Lift weights and get a fucking job. Woops, there goes the "weight and size" too.

>>4401132
diffraction physics get really fucky with micro four thirds too

full frame manages to be noticeably sharper at the same DOF no matter what you do. it's just how lenses work. micro four thirds photos resolve almost no detail. the g9ii is 25mp or something but whenever i see a photo from one it looks no better than a low MP fujifilm. it always looks like they're shooting at f16-f22 in terms of detail rendition.

>>4401132
Yes, nothing can save baby sensors from physics. This is with the panasonic 42.5mm f1.2 (85 f2.4 equivalent), one of the sharpest lenses in existence in terms of lp/mm actually. Even a lengthy image stacking operation just can't compete with simply making the sensor bigger.

Micro four thirds cameras make lovely point and shoots. You can fit an em5iii with the 20mm or the kit zoom etc into your pocket. Micro four thirds cameras also make amazing camcorders. A video frame is displayed for 1/24th of a second or less and is probably motion blurred. No one cares about the sharpness. Photos are sampled down to 4k or printed at 300dpi and the little sharpness differences show through even at those sizes... because they're not motion blurred and you can look at them for at least a second so all the little details give it "pop", as they say. Its just not the same use case. Better to give video the better codec/less rolling shutter at the cost of rendering.
But ever saying it's as good as full frame, or a replacement for full frame, or that now that your strap-only long lens large body camera is 1lb lighter and 3 inches shorter you are finally able to take a photo of a bird... is fucking retarded. If you want quality dont cope and pretend a cheap sony a7c with a sigma 100-400 won't stomp all over a m43 with its 'heckin price to weight to reach" ratio. Of course the 400 has less reach, but less reach actually contributes to the quality (less focusing through obstructions, less haze) and if you can't shoot wildlife with 400mm you're either hunting rare parrots in the amazon and better fucking have a 600mm prime for what nat geo is paying, or you're really bad at this. Ambush shoots wildlife with 70-200 and he's literally too good for /p/ now.

99% of images get shared on ig or the web. you literally cannot tell the censor size if there is enough light. there is literally a bong who does landscape photography for pay with a m43 on youtube. anyone bitching about muh 400% crop pixel peeping nonsense is a fag trying to justify their muh full frame which gets mogged by film anyway

>a couple of gay canadians use baby sensors for taking pics of cats and fences
my family got mad at me for using micro four thirds (gh6) for a group photo. they thought it was a digital camera from 2008. my fault for using a pentax k1 for the one prior. oops, bar too high. i switched it for a nikon z7ii pretty quixk.

you can take a million photos that dont matter with a shitty camera and tell all your friends on the internet you’re saul leiter 2.0 and a master of manual focus, but dont forget you’ll eventually fuck up an important one thats more than instagram filler.

>>4401141
You can take a million photos that dont matter, but if you actually have a life you need to consider the ones that arent instagram filler

I use flickr instead btw. Instagram doesnt even display page 2 for people without facebook accounts. Keep your 1500 followers, i have friends, family, and a church group.

my family likes my photos and i only shoot mft :3 i even give out little prints sometimes!

people who use m43 professionally are almost as cringe as people who make bait threads here about sensor size, i feel like if you're being paid then you are also going to quickly be able to afford to use proper tools for the job and not salaryman cameras.

m43 is great, but i would not be reaching for it if i was a professional photog in any capacity. i use it because used bodies and lenses are cheap and plentiful and i only do casual photography.

>>4401156
I laugh at people who use ff sized m43 gear

People who accept what the baby sensor is and use it as a pocket camera are ok. Too bad olympus died and panasonic just makes camcorders.

>>4401138
>You can fit an em5iii with the 20mm or the kit zoom etc into your pocket
You can but then thanks to the "the M43 standards don't actually cover fucking anything other than the mount itself and barely even that" dealio, you have to deal with Panasonic-lens-on-Olympus-body problems, like the famous purple flaring and the AF grid artifacts. Panasonic feels like they never went all in on the mount to start with and jumped ship to L mount as soon as it was feasible; Oly did go balls out from the start and made great little bodies and lenses but were already bleeding out internally and now they're a laughing stock of O-M1 Mark II Super Turbo slop jobs and Sigma rebadges. Absolute bungling on both sides all the way down and it saddens me.

>>4401213
That's called conquest. This situation is why native americans no longer exist.

Moefag weebs are already a disliked minority on 4chan. Most of /a/ is just teenagers that like shonen. The majority of 4chan users dislike anime. Moot and hiro each added an unofficial furry board. The time of the animepedo has come to an end. 4chan is now... furchan.
