Yea um i cant put my fricking epic + awesome Nikon lenses on it like why would i abandon the best lens ecosystem in the world just for something ppl will call the ligma when they see it

Also mirror is too small so i cant get my dick stuck in it

Practice and comparison to what people who appeal to your target audience are doing until you understand what you could do better. Publish and eat shit if you get it back.

There’s no painless magic bullet. You need someone better than you to tell you how you suck.

>>4259951
>You need someone
>to tell you how you suck
I kinda know that. The frustration is basically a lack of quality instruction. I don't know *how* to correct the mistakes in a practical sense, ie: you need to have a grid here or a snoot there, and so on.

I guess I can do some tests and post to /p/. I have some pretty decent shots but I need to get faster and be able to replicate results if I'm gonna get to a truly pro level.

I think I'm gonna snag a Parapop which should tide me over. I need some sort of scrim set though for product photography so the light has less spill

Any recommendations are welcome.

You can mount those on MFT with a simple adapter and you're golden, free extra reach. Because it's unparallelled reach from the sensor. Meaning it will beat ANY other sensor with the same lens.

>You have the noise but not the exposure of a higher ISO.

Neither of these statements make any sense.

>>4255361
The 24-70 f4 feels pointless when the 50mm f1.8 exists. I got rid of mine quick.
>buy full frame camera
>use aps-c tier lens

>>4257128
>Cropping makes noise bigger so the photo looks noisier
>Shorter focal lengths have more depth of field, even if you crop them
just wait until you learn there are medium format digital cameras

>>4257154
Primes are limited.

>>4259796
Primes are limited. So is f4.

The 24-120 is even less limited, sharper where people pay attention (the center), the same size once you account for the usage/storage position quirk of the 24-70, and doesn't really have a quality, focal length, and aperture equivalent on smaller formats or even on other brands. It makes your camera more worth it.

The 24-70 is the kit lens. It's just the cheaper/worse version of the actual slow travel zoom (24-120 f4 S) intended to tide cheapskates over. The camera it goes on is good, but if it's your one and only for life you might as well use a fuji and a sigma 18-50 and save pack space.

>>4257154
No, retard, you said "equivalence isn't real" then spoke as if there were unaccounted for differences with equivalent exposures.
>You have the noise but not the exposure of a higher ISO.
What does this even fucking mean if SNR is the same?

>You have the DOF but not the exposure of a smaller aperture.
And what does this even fucking mean if the DoF is the same?

The only thing not accounted for by equivalence is the MTF curve, i.e. larger formats being sharper ooc.

>>4259805
I think you can buy a shitty little gopro from 5 years ago for $150 that’ll shoot 4k/60, bc their sensors are stupid tiny and the whole machine is designed specifically to do it. Pretty fucking annoying that these many-thousands $ powerhouse mirrorless cameras cant pull it off, but, so be it.

>>4259807
You need a car analogy.
>Pretty annoying that my $30,000 f150 can't beat a $5000 motorcycle in a drag race
At what cost my man.

Also here's some video examples of longgop/all-i from someone that can afford the good video cameras and doesn't have to COPE.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?app=desktop&v=aeUMvEVwTvg
It's very, very minor for footage, and more about how labor intensive editing is. Also see prores whiners. The gains in footage are super minor, it's usually about it encoding and decoding 15% faster on specific macs because it's apples own codec. So personal preference.

>>4259805
>I've seen lots of longgop video with flashing lights and never noticed.
I have.
I'm not saying it's a big deal, but it's there.
I'd take 10bit longgop over 8bit All-I but I shoot 1080p most of the time.

>>4259805
>If the FOV change is ruining your youtube videos
No need to get defensive. Id just prefer it if I didn't have to fuck about.
I think sensor readout speeds are going to be the next push since they can't do much in any other area. Plus this would help of they want to cheat good IQ the same way mobile phones do.

>he wants computational photography cat.jpg on his ILC
lol... please no. that barely works on phone screens and only for low IQ normies who are literally too dumb and blasted to notice and only when they view photos in the messages 'app' or as tiny squares on IG... the app.

simultaneous readout from two gain channels, using the massively underexposed one to recover some highlight detail? gut.
stacking even with global shutter faggotry? infeasible.

>>4259749
Demosaicing? That process where you combine the information of 4 photosites into 1 pixel?
Yes, that's why monochrome gets more pixels.

by paying 100 and 2 or 3weeks at the a/s center for just a fucking tiny piece of dust to get out of the sensor.

fixed lens cameras are fucking meme

>>4258023
If i had to wait for a goddamn lens to twist out to shoot every shot i would absolutely die. and if i had to fucking turn the cam on and then twist to use the bitch myself i would fucking kill myself on the spot. I hate this shit more than life itself. Also, why do i have to tell the motherfucker to turn on? Arent we past 1996? How tf is my $8000 camera system not smart enough to know to go into standby mode until i pick it up and start using it. Jfc japan, could you design like youre even trying, just once

>>4259729

It's apparently a requested feature. And allegedly it's for school shooters for consistency.

I have the A7iv, love it. Ridiculous but I guess there is a market for it. No idea what the sensor is capable of since I canf find any info, but I don't think there's much I'd be willing to pay for. Maybe 100% crop 1080p120 10 bit, you can only use FF or S35 mode, clear image zoom is disabled for it. Or open gate in 24/30 fps Maybe.

>>4259150
I feel like anytime I'd want this, I'd probably be shooting tethered, and I could just use C1's even better overlay options.

I went to a few shows in the tunnels in San Diegos rainwater system. It was neat, but like all this stuff it just seems a lot like kids posing & imitating, like big mashups of what already came before & everyone saw 1000x and was sick of by about 1995.

>>4258327
>you dont need silent shutter
In that case the only difficulty a concert presents is low light and chaos. So really we are grasping for few extra stops, a full frame camera with typical f/2.8 zooms would work (or even aps-c with sigma f/1.8 art zooms)
