hope they add a 135mmf2.8 or preferably f3.5, thats would be an instant buy for me (i'd sell my 135f1.8)

thats pretty much it. i guess if you turn of hdr feature that might help. with the feature it takes 3 images with different exposure settings and combines them to preserve highlights and shadows. i ...

lol they look like my grandmas tea-cups.
Lens not developed for big a*s mount now looks like sh..

Sigma DG DN C i-series:
17mm F4
20mm F2
24mm F2
24mm F3,5
35mm F2
45mm F2.8
50mm F2
65mm F2
90mm F2.8

I'd pick 20, 45, 90.
what 3 lens kit would you build?

If the 50mmf2 shows the same excellent bokeh rendering as the 45mmf2.8 it will be a great option for all those not willing to carry a fast fifty.

great to see them expanding this excellent series of lenses.
compact, fast enough, great quality.
If i had to pick a series of compact AF primes from just one manufacturer these would be it.

I did check test scenes very often when I was new to photography, and the dpr test scene and interface was definitely the most sophisticated, so I'm very thankful for it.
I found it less and less...

the resolution of the s23u is quite impressive. Still the 50/200MP is mostly useful for marketing the device. When interested in across the frame sharpness and for actual photographic purposes ...

it was always obvious to everyone with the slightest experience in astrophotography that phone moon shots are "enhanced" to a point where it has hardly anything to do with reality. But who cares, i ...

all i learn from this: next time i want a semi macro photograph of a bank note i will grab my phone.

The point is that it is also a poor composition and edit.
Which led me to believe the photographer put zero effort into the post processing.
And from what i read about the location its not a...

Not a particularly good composition and edit.
I would definitely crop out the eagle in the lower right corner and put the branch in the corner. 4:3 ratio would work better here.
Also theres a...

this is exactly the type of photography that i find is one of the strongpoints of the GR series. I love using it while on my bike, most of all with slower shutterspeeds to make background blur ...

as amazing as Gigapixel AI cleans up the image, the amount of fake detail and artefacts that its producing i find extremely distracting...
and after downsampling differences are negligible.

thanks for sharing the images, its always interesting (im on S22 still) are you sure you used a tripod in the first scene? i can see double edged structures which indicates there was camera shake. ...

ooc jpg shows artefacting in the eybrows at 100%, probably from sharpening

I cant quite justify spending the monthly rate on the LrC subscription as i only occasionally use it to process raws and i find $100/year too much. Does anybody know if its possible to activate LrC ...

i guess for photographers (not in need of 4K 60p) a used higher-grade body would be a much better choice.
basically its an updated RP, which is really not a great camera at all. Maybe the R8ii...

What FF has going for it:
widest rectilinear lens in any format (Laowa 9mm f5.6) - ts small
widest zoom (Laowa 10-18mm f4.5-5.6) - its small
cheapest UWA prime of any format (Samyang FE 2.8/18...
