My first Lumix (S5 + 50mm 1.8)
I’m seriously considering one of these. I don’t need PDAF nor fancy video specs/features as I just still subjects like landscapes, architecture, and urban landscapes. So I just need a good full frame camera with great colors and a simple design for a solid price. Being a Lumix user already, the orig

A7V released - 33MP partially stacked, 7.5 stop IBIS, new processor, $2900 USD - available for preorder
Good points. On the one hand, it's like they're making these cameras for YouTubers who also do photography, and that's obviously a tiny market. On the other hand, many people try to get into that world, and it's not too hard to make a good hybrid these days. That said, I agree that the specialty vid

Considering getting a S1r for general use photography as a back up to my S5ii, any thoughts
I actually did this a while back and if you can find a good deal on the S1R then I’d say go for it! It’ll make your S5ii feel like a toy though, it’s the best built Lumix camera I’ve ever felt and it’s so bloody comfortable in hand. It’s got so many nice features, Top LCD, backlit buttons, CFExpress

When buying a camera (as a hobbyist), are you more interested in the fun while shooting or the results?
Bit of both. I have a Lumix S1R I take for serious sessions where I don't need to lug it very far and i'm sitting throughout a sunrise/sunset. The 47mp raw files are pure joy to develop. But it's not a fun camera to use. COnversely I love shooting with my OM-1, which is arguably inferior in most reg

Q: You can choose only two LUMIX cameras to shoot with for the rest of your life. What two do you choose??
I would choose the S1R and G9 II. I own the S1R and a single L-mount lens, the Sigma ART 35mm F1.2 DG II. I had purchased the S1R initialy with the intent to use it as a digital X-Pan, taking advantage of its in-camera 65:24 crop and it served me well for that project. After that project concluded,

Choosing between the S1RII or A7RV/IV for editorial photography.
I shot with an A7iv a lot during college, my main work cam for years was an OG G9, and I've just picked up the S5iix. So not super across the S1R but I have some reference as to the two systems. What I can say is that the menu system/software/ergonomics are one of the biggest reasons I stuck with Lu

G9ii + full frame opinions?
The S1R cost less than my om-1. They have gotten pretty cheap used. If you can deal with a clunky slow camera with terrible ergonomics the a7r2 sensor is still fantastic today and you can buy them for around $600 (or at least you could back when I sold mine a year ago). I do prefer the output from m

Just bought a used S1 mk1.. Am I dumb?
To yap on this topic a bit, the one thing I wish I had realized before I made a similar purchase a couple weeks ago is that the S1/S1R use different batteries than my S9, and the rest of the S-series, including the S1ii and S1Rii. I'm not entirely sure that would have swayed me, but whereas there ar

Pixel Shift for Macro Product Photography & Lighting Question.
I use pixel shift on a Lumix DC-S1R all the time for reproduction work with art and heritage material. Lumix’s system processes the 8 shots in camera outputting one 187mp raw file. I have probably focus stacked with them at some point; I frequently stitch them together for oversize items. They are a

Leica Q4 wishlist as someone who uses the Q3 daily.
Here is my wishlist: Content credentials like in the M11-P, 256GB internal storage, true wireless charging without the need of a grip, SL3 levels of weather sealing, computational photography tools like OM System has in their OM-1 and OM-1 II, dual way tilt screen like found in the Lumix S1R (it’s s
