Hi, @christian-horstmann,

I understand your frustration! There’s a definite need for more photographers that seek to uphold Godly standards in their art! Lightstock.com can be a good tool, though there’s still quite a few photos to weed through like other stock sites. I have a portfolio on there that you can take a look at, if you’re inter…[Read more]

Thankyou for your help, @dfrazer and ernestf-lloyd, I purchased the Canon EF 24-105mm f/4L IS II USM lens last night! 🙂

I just thought I should let you all know that last night I purchased the Canon 6D Mark II! The place I was looking to purchase it from had a sale and I was able to save $500 on it. What a huge blessing! Now I can’t wait for it to arrive. 🙂

Thankyou so much for your help, @ernestf-lloyd, @buddingphotographer, @dfrazer and @jamesstaddon. I r…[Read more]

Thankyou, @ernestf-lloyd, for you help with that!

Oh, I just was thinking about it, you’re probably looking for the other way around calculation. 🙂

Haha! Glad you cleared that up. I was a bit confused. 😆 So it’s a relief to know that the first calculation was wrong! 🙂

Thankyou for your help, @dfrazer!

A 24-70 or something similar would be what you will be looking for, as that will be the same effective focal length as what you are used to

That’s good to know, thanks!

So, I’m looking at the Canon EF 24-105mm f/4L IS II USM Lens. htt…[Read more]

From my understanding, to a degree: more noise when shooting in low light. https://techforanyone.com/megapixels-dont-matter-cameras/ So it may not be as big an issue for you, if you don’t plan to do much low-light photography!

Ah, ok. That’s good to know.

Sorry, I don’t have experience with this. I think you’re into photography enough that yo…

@jamesstaddon

Thanks for your thoughts on all that!

If I was more into video, I’d probably go with the 90D. It’s modern and fast, though I dislike the small pixel size, and would probably find the 45 focus points annoying.

Ok! So, does a smaller pixel size mean lower quality?

🙂 Because I’m used to only having 9 focus points, 45 sound…[Read more]

Thanks, @dfrazer, for your response. 🙂 That makes sense!

Yes, having 2 memory card slots sounds like a really nice feature. I haven’t had any corrupt on me yet, but from what I hear, it’ll probably happen at some stage.

Thanks, @jamesstaddon, for you response!

I can not tell you how amazing the 65 point autofocus system is in the 7D Mark II. Somehow, it’s just better than the 61 points of the 5D Mark III.

I bet! My current camera only has 9 autofocus points, which is pretty restraining. So I’m really looking forward to having more of those to use. 🙂

Thankyou, @dfrazer, for those thought provoking questions and your response! 🙂

I was curious as to why you can change the settings on your full frame camera quicker than on your crop sensor camera? And what some of the extra features are? 🙂

Thanks for taking the time to share you’re thoughts, @buddingphotographer.

Curious, what is the largest print you’ve ever made?

Well, I haven’t actually made that many prints. I’m not sure of the biggest dimensions of the top of my head. But it wasn’t that big and looked fine. I thought that the more megapixels your camera had the higher th…[Read more]

Thankyou so much for your thoughts and comments, @ernestf-lloyd.

And thanks for reminding me about Camera Decision. I’m pretty sure I’ve used it in the past, but had totally forgotten about it, so have been using it quite a bit lately! It’s quite handy, since I’m not exactly some high tech, camera comparison person. 🙂

I have to admit that I…[Read more]

Hi, @ephillips!

Nice work! I like the perspective you’ve gotten on this shot. Even though the rocky foreground is busy, for some reason the rocks don’t seem to be a distraction like I would’ve expected, but instead work as a sort of leading line to the beautiful mountains! 🙂 There’s also more rocks on one side than the other, but because you can…[Read more]

Thanks for that suggestion, @bennett-family! 🙂

In the end I downloaded a free one from Studio Binder It’s pretty simple, but easy to use. The reason I didn’t end up using the LightStock or Lenspiration model releases was because they had their logos on them and the Lenspiration one was specifically for Lenspiration STS assignments. I hope to…[Read more]

Not sure if I’m doubling up or not…but here’s one more. 🙂

Thanks for that suggestion, @ernestf-lloyd! I think it might work, temporarily at least. 🙂 And it will give me something to base a more personalized one off that I’ll create in the (hopefully!) near future!

And here are some photos of a kinked hose… It was harder than I expected to get a kink to look natural. 🙂
