You can't tell me one real pro of crop sensors. There's absolutely no point of APS-C when full frame exists. It's not as small, compact or economical as micro four thirds nor do you get the resolution and capability of FF. I guess it's just so that people can feel like they're larping as FF. FF is isn't even that much more expensive most of the time so being a poorfag is the only excuse[EXIF data available.

>>4305775>M.Zuiko 75-300: $300Tbh I'm not super happy with this lens. For Olympus the 40-150mm/2.8 is a lot sharper and weather sealed, but costs about $400 more. There's a 50-200mm four thirds lens that goes for pretty cheap, and is quite sharp too, but an MMF-3 adapter (which is the only one that's weather sealed) makes it like $120 more. Unless you plan on getting more FT glass (I've been eyeing the 150mm/2 and 300mm/2.8 but they're expensive) it's probably worth just saving up for the 40-150/2.8. OM should release a 70-300 that's weather sealed and sharp, I'd pay good money for that.Panasonic ironically has better wildlife lenses that Olympus, but worse bodies save for the G9ii. The 50-200, 100-300, and 200/2.8 are all great. Olympus only really competes with the 300/4 (I like 200mm more and you can add a TC too, on the 300 a TC makes it too slow and >300mm equivalent isn't worth) and the 150-400, the latter being too expensive to be worth considering.If you don't care about WR you can use the Panasonic lenses on the E-M1.2 of course. I'd probably get the Panny 100-300 over the Oly 70-300 given the latter isn't WR anyway.
>>4305827Are the Pana long lenses prone to the purple smearing like the shorter ones are on Olympus bodies? It's wack that there's like 3 or 4 Oly 40-150s (plus the Lumix 45-150/175) and then almost nothing between that and the 300mm range. And the few that do exist, Panasonic managed to make them so much smaller and with IS that the Oly versions are silly to even look into.
>>4305765I would lean toward a last generation APS-C dslr from canon or nikon. The jump to mirrorless is great but I'd rather have an excellent dslr than a budget mirrorless, and lens selection will be much more affordable. Remember that the lens is far more important than the body. Here's what I would buy with no other gear and $1000 to spend:>Canon 7D ii - $300https://www.ebay.com/itm/186401075207>Sigma 100-400 - $460https://www.ebay.com/itm/355636516198>Tamron 35 1.8 - $300https://www.ebay.com/itm/296340152541overall $1060. You could also get the canon ef 35 f/2. Anyway this would give you great reach for birding and an awesome walk-around lens for family stuff.[EXIF data available.

Does anyone sell an affordable high IQ lab/pro quality camera?I simply want a sensor and a lens mount, don't care for anything other than the basic ability to capture photons and produce a raw image file.I'm thinking something along the lines of a raspberry pi cam, only bigger and better, so like $1K for a high megapixel "dumb" camera with no features or autofocus or JPEG engine just something I can attach a lens to, mount onto a rail, and install for a DIY scanner

am i stupid or is it borderline indistinguishable when using a black mist filter? i shoot film and i havent developed any shots using it yet, but in the viewfinder shots look barely different with vs without. is it just in the viewfinder that it looks no different or is this a skill issue?
>>4305867The point is you don't really notice it except in situations with point light sources or strong backlighting. It's meant to be borderline indistinguishable. Just a little light funky sauce ladled on top of your photo.
>>4305869yeah but when i test it out by pointing the cam at a street light or something i can only barely see a bigger cloud of light from it
>>4305871Correct. What do you want it to do? There are heavier diffusion filters out there. And heavier strengths of BPM. Get a star filter or faux anamorphic flare filter if you really want to see some shit.

Alright, now is the time to buy. Apparently hollywood is using soviet photo glass for movies now. Companies are rehousing them into film lenses. Dune 2 was shot entirely on old Soviet glass. I know the Helios m42 is legend. what else should I look at. I am on L mount.
Correct, now is the time to buy at inflated prices due to all the youtubers hyping them up. The real time to buy was years ago.By the time something is memed, and by the time you jump on the bandwagon, the bleeding edge folks will have already moved on to the next gimmick.In summary, there's lots of lenses out there, experiment. Don't follow leaders, watch the parking meters.
>>4304170Why would people shoot that film on Soviet you're a glass when it's meant to be displayed in imax?
>>4305872All these old lenses are shit and unique. Eventually some normie movie will be shot on olympussy sucko lenses and those will be $500 a pop. Get your 135mm f2.8s while you can.
>>4305918Because “soft” lenses still have a lot of detail, it’s just not as crispy.

>>4303366it even has a rear facing selfie camera, what other camera on the market has that?
>>4305722That's called a free market economy. The business is just as free to discontinue its product as the consumer is to no longer engage with that business for failing to provide the product they require.
The ultracompact form factor can be used for surveillance, remote monitoring of wildlife etc.I think it is cool. We are going towards trailcams and such not being potato quality which is nice.
>>4305739No, nigger.That's not a free market economy.A free market would allow a third party to go "Hey ____ distontinued their hugely popular product, wow, there's a total void in the market. Let's produce something to fill the demand!"What we have now, in the DEI Hire States of Muttmerica, is that original company that made something can choose to stop making whatever it is and PURSUE LEGAL ACTION AGAINST anyone who wants to even try to meet the demand.The law has failed us. This isn't capitalism. This is capitalism with extra steps, and all the extra stuff is poison.The current world in Muttmerica has made any true competition illegal. Consumers lose. Supply/demand is a myth.

>>4302919> 24-600mm equivalentwhy. you can get 150-600s cheap enough and they'll be far higher quality than this. i'm sure my 500pf with a 2x teleconverter and cropped 50% gives a better image than a p1000 too
I think if anything beats bridges it's mft, it can be just as or more affordable, has better iq, equally good stabilization video etc. and you can use a superzoom like a 24-400 equivalent or put on a reasonably fast lens if it gets dark, and your lenses work with tiny bodies to larger ones with better performance. They're smaller too.
>>4302942Well, you'll then need a 24-whatever zoom to cover the rest of the range and have to put up with needing to swap lenses. Plus the RX10 is significantly smaller and lighter, about half the weight of a 150-600mm on its own and similar in size to a mirrorless body and the normal zoom. Yes the resulting images won't be as high quality but they will be adequate and for some people that is good enough.
