Is a Nikon D850 a good choice for photomicrography in 2026?

Yes to all of this. I used various Canon 5D series DSLRs for years doing exactly this. Just upgraded to a R5 Mark II (mirrorless) but either will work

My photo of the Jerami Grant dunk!

I think the R3, at the time, was overpriced - now, it's "okay". My main body is actually the R5mk2! Which I think the R5 series is the best bang for buck, it's fast enough, it has a higher MP, and all needs like Pre-Capture. The lens is what Canon has over Sony, but honestly if I were to start from

Resist the temptation of a Canon R6 II

I've just moved from R5ii + 100-500L to OM kit. I now use the OM-1ii with the 300 f/4 Pro, 50-200 f/2.8 Pro, and both TCs. I don't notice any compromise to the subject detection AF, or AF speed. I also don't see any significant difference in real-world image quality unless you are pixel-peeping. Wha

In your experience, what are the most reliable mirrorless cameras your photographers have used on set?

Canon R5 has been reliable on set, less noise then R5II. Also currently discounted

Going to Madagascar: what camera to buy

a full frame camera, a telephoto for wildlife and a wider angle lens for landscapes. but.... spending that much on photo equipment is probably wasteful if you don't know how to properly use it. buying a £10,000 guitar will not help you to play flamenco unless you have a certain knowledge base. that

Keep DSLR or upgrade to mirrorless for kid and family photography?

I know mirrorless is better quality images I’m not sure how true this is. Take for example if you have a Canon 6D Mark ii. A Canon RP will have exactly the same sensor so the inherent “quality” will be the same when using the same lenses. It is, however, the shooting experience that will be differen

Just some pictures from my new camera of my neighborhood murder

for the photo nerds (and myself because I don't have many people to infodump this too that would appreciate it) I was on the crop sensor Canon R7 with the Sigma c 150-600mm originally, upgrade the lens to the Canon 100-500mm last year and while I loved how much faster and lighter it was, the loss of

Best High End Camera?

Looking at the photos, you'll need more than just a camera, you'll need proper lights. Otherwise for the camera you can pick anything from the major brands, Nikon Z9, Canon R1, Sony A1II, they're all fairly similar, especially for portraits where you don't really need such a high end camera. A Canon

In your experience, what are the most reliable mirrorless cameras your photographers have used on set?

Yeah, that's exactly why I said the R5 II might be the most sensible choice as a business purchase, because rental houses mainly carry Canon gear, so if anything goes wrong or I need a very specific lens that I don't own, it's easy to rent. From where I'm from, Canon is the brand most rental houses
