I just do Year > Event Name, and then also have Q1-Q4 for misc snapshots.
I only browse / view the folders through C1, and just use C1 filtering as needed for searching by date or camera or lens. Switching from individual sessions from a few larger catalogs has been great. All exports go to the Output folder of the relevant session.

YOU CAN ALSO PLAY WITH COLOR BALANCE SETTINGS IN YOUR CAMERA, WHICH IS LIKELY WHY THEY CLAIM TO HAVE SATURATED SOME COLORS AND NOT OTHERS.

PS. In the Ron Howard film Apollo 13, you can see them throwing cameras Down the Hatch to put into the Command Module for reentry when the trying to balance off the weight difference from the lack of moon rocks. Ron was lucky enough to partner with somebody who knew where he could get these cameras from private collectors myself included. I didn't get to instruct the actors on how to use these cameras, the other person did who had more in it. Unfortunately when they were doing filming on board the vomit Comet for these scenes, they tossed the lens across the Gap too quickly in the mock-up, and the guy missed it and hit the wall and damaged it. One lens that NASA wanted, but they didn't get in time was the 105 F 4.3 UV Sonnar. By the time that was available, they'd already gotten a workaround lens from another company and adapted it.

It's a nationwide hobby project, not the military. Their funding is justified different.
>military: spend as little money as possible, but also wantonly waste money on bullshit R&D and even flying tires back and forth to use more gas to show that you need your budget
>NASA: gimme five million dollars i want a cooler rocket
So they actually did buy the best camera they could afford. I'm sure a hasselblad SLR was available at the time but apparently their build quality's gone to shit over the years, so say hasselblad users.

I've had this trooper bag from Wotancraft for 5 years.
I go to some sketchy places so it's nice to have something that doesn't scream camera bag but I can still pull my camera out of pretty quickly. The only thing I wish it had was tripod straps.
But looking at their current catalog though the prices have really jumped up and they look to be aiming it being a fashion brand. Shame.

Before I just put soft inserts into normal bags, which is about as stealth that you can get.

>photographers that travel but not JUST to take pictures
These people are basically extinct

Taking photos walking your fuckin dog results in more honest work than a pointless “photowalk”. These people did not “do photography”. They were wide eyed journalists immersed with wonder rather than interns afraid of running afoul of state censors and old boomers doing it for the paycheck.

I know the former owner, he has a place in Whistler. We had a few discussions about gear and I bragged about owning a Zeiss 105 f4.3 UV Sonnar.

He said it was a great lens, then he showed me some of his. Sets of Zeiss Superspeeds, a gorgeous APO Lanthar, a 34mm f5.6 meant for 8x10 view cameras.

The real highlight was his 1200 mm F 5.6 Canon. It's really hard to describe what it feels like to hold a lens is worth more than a down payment on a lot of good houses.

He set it up in his balcony on this massive tripod that's worth I think more than any lenses that I currently are with the exception of the one I mentioned earlier. I took a few photographs with it then scanned around the village and happened upon couple fooling around about 3/4 of a mile away in their hot tub.

>>4306246
Did you know that a 34mm lens used for 8x10 film would be the equivalent of using a 5mm lens on 35mm film? Bonkers.

>>4306293
I thought itwas an aerial photography lens

>>4306386
Maybe it was a 34 inch lens? That would be a 120mm equivalent on 8x10.

>>4306293
It had a 10 inch front element

>>4306449
You could look at finding a decent used A1, would be cheaper than A7IV + FX3 together.
Would be better for stills and video than A7IV, especially with the new fw update, though FX3 being a dedicated video camera btfos it in usability on that front, even if downsampled video from the A1 sensor would technically be sharper.

I use mine for video all the time but I must have taken a total of 10 pictures on it. It's a tool I need for work. But if I ever go out I grab my xt5.

One thing I'll say is whatever waterproofing problems they used to have those things are sealed tight now.
I shot a mermaid themed opera (don't ask) and had the thing splashed like 10 dozen times. Works fine half a year later. My old Nikon used to go out for repair at least once a year.

>>4306443
For what it’s worth, the 14-30 f/4 and 14-24 f/2.8 Z lenses are both incredible. And you can use the Sony 50 1.2 GM on a Nikon body seamlessly with a Megadap ETZ21 adapter, that’s what I do. Agree with you about the size of the Nikkor being a bummer. I really like the Sony 50. So you could have the best of both worlds.

>>4307214
And you won’t need to buy a video-centric body if you get a Z8.

>>4307195
i actually prefer the look of images taken with a7iv sensor.

a good/bad lens makes or breaks the image quality but no matter which lens you put on a1, the images always look digital/robotic... idk how to explain it. they look like AI made them

Always found it weird how vocal Sony users are. I think they have the only users that actively try to sell you the system and shit on other brands, why is that?

Fuck that noise brah. Buy a Nikon, install capture one. You'll be glad you're invested in superior FF/crop MF sized Z mount when tech from RED starts trickling into Nikon bodies.

>>4307050
21 stop dr? Global shutter?

stopped caring when the a6700 released since it wasn't too different/groundbreaking from my a6600. the a9iii looks cool but ill wait for the trickle down for the global shutter if it ever happens.

Yes, but the good thing is that the camera for that reason is avoiding the hipster tax since no influencers can shill it properly.

>>4306682
No need to have mechanically timed shutters. An electronically timed shutter like in a Nikon FE2 would be very simple and cheap to implement.

>>4307028
Even with mechanical shutter, it wouldn't be that big of a deal. The "Nikon" (actually made by Cosina) FM10 was a cheap, plastic-bodied, all mechanical f-mount SLR intended for sale to countries too backwards to have batteries(!), and it was not ended production until *2022*. Two years ago! The only thing preventing it from being what OP was asking for is the fact that it was plastic and looked like it was from the 1990's not the 1970's.

>>4306651
I'd guess the cost of a real, all-metal, all-mechanical SLR like the Nikon FM series, if made today, would be $1200 to $1500 USD.
This puts it at the same league as any number modern full frame digital cameras. Probably not many people would be willing to pay that for a niche novelty hobby item like a 35mm film camera. People who want to spend a lot of money on film cameras will shoot MF/LF. Look at it another way the ebay price of used cameras will need to rise to higher than that before it's anyone's interest to make them new.
