What camera/lens/flash setup do we think Sinna Nasseri uses on the red carpet?

Helmet person has I think a Canon R1 or R3, though it could be an R5 with a portrait grip. Lens could be the 24-105 f/2.8. Presumably a similar body and different lens on the other shoulder. Sinna Nasseri then has a quite odd setup, to me that looks like a very small lens, perhaps adapted M mount, a

FX3 or R6V

Depends. Canon has their Lens Ecosystem locked off.If you need open gate Canon is your pick.If you want a two in one cam you could get the R5ii or the just released A7RVI.Both will serve all your needs and handle everything you described in your situation.I personally would probably go for the R6iii

Latest Camera Sales Results

Why are you even posting in the m4/3 sub? You seem to despise the system and come here to piss all over it. I've noticed that your posts are frequently downvoted. I have everything from the Pen F and OM-3 to Fuji APS-C to the a7cr and Canon R5ii. I use them all and appreciate what each can do. There

“Your camera doesn’t matter” mentality turning into self sabotage… is it time to let go of my Canon 5D Mark IV? Would a Sony A1 be an unnecessary upgrade?

i have never touched an A1 i owned a 5D Mk II and then a Mk III. Am a very serious amateur who got paid.. v. part time ... to do some sports. But would not call myself a pro. I found that the user interface/ergonomics of trying a couple Sony cameras to be problematic after being a longtime shooter o

Czech President Petr Pavel is attending the Hungarian Grand Prix — not on an official visit, but as a photographer

It is the Canon R5. You can (barely) make out the differences to the R5 II in the ON/OFF//Photo/Video Switch and above the mode dial.Aside from those, there are only three other Canon mirrorless bodies sporting a top display. However, the original R lacks the joystick, and the R3 and R1 have the int

Is Nikon Z the best camera series or am I missing something?

I don't see how Canon is better on absolutely any front For me: Ergonomics (this is huge—Nikon is pretty good here, but as much as I love Sony, their ergonomics don't work for me) Color science AF (R5II and others) Best support for my vast collection of amazing and unique EF glass, especially my EF

Invest for better sleep.

I’m waiting for canon to come out with a multi-charger for their new batteries for the R5ii. It’s killing me to not be able to charge more than one at a time. They detect third party chargers and don’t charge and currently no dual-battery charger is strong enough to power them. If anyone has one tha

Canon r6 mark ii or Nikon z6iii ?

Working wedding and portrait photographer here. After using a 28-70 f2, I could never let it go. My main body is an r5ii with r6ii as secondary, but to be honest, r5ii is overkill and the r6ii is incredible and never feels lacking, while performing noticeably better at higher iso. At this point, any

Anyone have any positive/negative experience shooting on Kinefinity Mavo Edge 8k/Pyxis 12k/RED Monstro 8k VV/Canon C400?

I wanted to finally update my EOS R for stills to something newer and with a better design. So I opted for the R5 ii. I was genuinely surprised about almost everything this camera does and offers. Canon really does seem to get their act together. So I wouldn’t count them out directly.

Rugby 7s

Everything was shot on a Canon R5ii with the RF 100-300 f/2.8 at 1/1600s | f/2.8 | ISO 100. It's hard to beat the convenience of this do-it-all single camera setup, even if sometimes I wish I had more reach, and others a wider FOV...
