a7 III

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.

Sensors pretty much plateaued around 2012-2015. Sensor technology is constantly improving. It's just that the big sensor used in "real" cameras only have gotten limited benefits from it. Mobile phone sensors are in many ways much more advanced as being smaller finer manufacturing geometries can be u

Took a trip out to curio bay, Southland New Zealand, last night with some friends to take advantage of the one clear night in weeks Pictured is one of the 8 Matariki pou that celebrates the Māori new year, this is a 9 image panorama with each image being taken at f1.8, iso 2000, 20” exposures taken

if you shoot raw there are no color differences, because raw files don't have any color, it's mostly up to the raw processor and the camera profile that it uses https://blog.kasson.com/the-last-word/roles-of-camera-and-raw-developer-in-determining-color/ zve10 is basically an a6100, so it should hav
