Is one mirrorless body safe?

In 20 years and 1100+ weddings, I needed my backup one time. - when my Sony A7iii shutter went out at 579,000 count during the entrance of a bride at the ceremony. Was it worth carrying a second for 20 years just to have this happen to me one time? HELL YES.

The Milky Way arch at Passo Giau, Dolomites

The Milky Way arch at Passo Giau was one of the most challenging arches I’ve ever captured due to the intense light pollution and high humidity. After a spectacular sunset, we were enveloped in mist during the blue hour, but we were fortunate to have a clear night. I had the lens heater on at maximu

Nikon d810 in 2025?!

DSLRs are still widely used by event and sports photographers because of their battery life and durability. The D810 can easily smash the A7 III to pieces without breaking a sweat in a cage match and then go for another 3 rounds. It's a fanstatic work horse camera, tho I'd spend a bit more to find o

Micro Four Thirds is "just getting killed" - Peter Jeune, on Petapixel Podcast 12/06/2025

I actually listened to that, and I think the interview is really thought-provoking. Sony has "just done such a good job at telling the full-frame story" It’s true—Sony really pioneered the push to democratize full-frame with the A7 III. They were so good at convincing the general audience that full-

Panasonic Lumix s9 and its role.

Adding to this, the S9 electronic shutter is so much better than the S5 (mk1) or the Sony A7 III, which are really wobbly when the physical shutter is disabled. Outside of flash work or niche fast paced situations, it's not a big issue.

Buying a used camera

I saw your post on another subreddit just now about choosing a camera. I’d recommend the sony a7 iii from tori.fi. Try to find one with low shotter count. It’s the best value sony camera in my opinion and passes for professional work. It’s also a very popular model so if you decide to quit photograp

Is there anyone who has used both Sony and Olympus cameras?

I have the a6300, a7ii and a7r4. On the Olympus side, I have the OM-1.ii and E-P7. I don't use the kit lens on the Olympus cameras - I mostly use the 12-40/2.8 PRO. The Sony kit lens is shit, and the kit lenses I have for my older Olympus cameras are excellent, and so are samples I've seen online fo

Issues with 50m 1.4 pro communication with Sony a7r3. Support unhelpful.

Just my honest opinion: I posted about an issue I had, got a DM within five minutes asking for my email address, and received an email with new beta firmware to try just half an hour later. That’s excellent customer service. And i later learned that is not even just the viltrox adapter that i acting

Thinking of joining the X-E5 club, but the "lug issue" has me genuinely paranoid...

Dude you don’t need to worry about the screen. Maybe the X-E5 of the person you replied to does have a flimsy screen—I don’t want to dismiss their experience—but the screen on mine is solid; actually too solid for my taste. Compared to my 8-year-old Sony A7 III’s screen with a similar tilt mechanism

Looking for a camera/equipment help

honestly with that budget you could get a sony alpha a7 iii and a 24-70mm f/2.8 lens.. perfect combo for both casual shots with friends and professional work without having to switch lenses all the time.
