Inexpensive photogrammetry camera recommendations

A modern smart phone with the right settings can give you some surprisingly good results! Do some tests with whatever you have access to right now, it might do the trick. Other than that, an older/cheaper DSLR still gives great results. I've done a bit of photogrammetry with a Canon 5d mk ii which i

What features from older cameras do you miss the most and wish manufacturers would bring back to modern mirrorless cameras?

I love using rangefinder style bodies. I miss my Panasonic GX7. Great for holidays, or just wandering around cities etc. I upgraded to a G80. I do love it, and get some great use out of it. But I never really bring it on holiday.

iPhone 17 Pro or a small dedicated camera for someone who wants good image quality without carrying a large camera?

I have an iPhone 17 Pro and also micro four thirds kit.The phone is always with me and is a very useful phot source, rainproof, easy to edit, usefully transferable media, good range of focal lengths and its night vision is quite astonishing. Ive taken shots alongside my “proper” kit and sometimes fi

Planning to switch to OM3

I have been thinking about pulling the trigger on the OM3. I have OM5 and panasonic gx7. I like them both. I have been toying with getting a FF. looking at the Nikon z5ii but when i handled it in the store it seems too big. I like the small m43 kit i have and no complaints about the pictures i can c

How did you get into m43 system? What's your future plans with it?

Got a freelance gig in 2014 that required access to a professional camera. I needed something very cost effective, my budget was £200. Options were a Fuji XM1, a Pentax KP, a Canon EOS M or the Olympus EPL5. The Olympus had a few drawbacks, not least a lack of EVF or focus peaking, but it came with

Z5 is cheaper now than Z50ii. Should I get the Z5 in 2026 for travel and family photography?

I shoot M4/3, APSC and FF. What M4/3 camera and lenses do you currently own? I traveled for years with a GX7 and Oly 12-40,2.8 lens and got great results. If you’re not shooting fast moving objects or need larger than 16x20 prints, M4/3 is really good. Even them Oly and Panasonic make top notch came

Question on older cameras like GX800(GF9), E-PL5/6/7 - size and straight out of camera jpg quality

I had a GX800. I felt the Panasonic jpg profiles were pretty good, especially the black and whites. You can adjust saturation, contrast, sharpness and white balance, but it doesn't have the highlight/shadow curve adjustment options you would have in the GX9 tier and above cameras. There are no custo

L10 size vs Pen F

GX7 was a great size except it needed a better thumb placement tab and GX85/9 were the successor. Not sure why Panasonic doesn’t put out a GX10, since they have the body already. It seems corporate has decided that the photography unit has to use one body for M4/3 and FF. The G9II body isn’t as nice

Official Question Thread! Ask /r/photography anything you want to know! February 20, 2026

I’ve looked at a lot of cameras so far. Right now I have a Canon EOS 4000D, and I don’t use it because it’s big and heavy and I’m just too lazy to carry it around. So I was thinking of getting a smaller camera, but I don’t know which one. My head tells me to get the Sony A6000 because compared to Pa

Which travel camera should i choose?

I travelled with the GX7 in my backpack with the Panasonic 20mm,f1.7 lens from when it first came out in 2013 until COVID. It’s pretty durable and I was lucky to find a leather case that covered the camera with that lens on it. Now I put in the back of my bike rack bag. Highly recommend if this help
