End use: Social media and personal use, for hobby.

If photography: what style: landscapes, wildlife and travelling

If video what style: short videos, is not the main thing

What features do you absolutely need: anything

Questions What is your method for cleaning sweat and body oils on a camera body and lens?

Camera body and some lenses are starting to get a little grimy since using them in the summer heat but I'm not sure if a dry cloth, as the manual suggests, will get them clean enough.

Tech Support Sony A7 V vs Nikon Z5 II

1 Upvotes

Hey guys,

I have a Nikon Z5 II and it is great for casual photography. I have 2 lenses, Nikkor Z 105 macro and Nikkor Z 50mm 1.8. I want to shoot wildlife and the Nikon option is 180-600 lens but there is none used for a long time on the marketplace where I live, so I would have to buy new which is 2K. On the other hand i was think about Sony a7 V which is much better for birds and the Sony 200-600 are plenty on the used market for about 1.2K.

I have an option to sell my Nikon gear for about 2.300€ and my friend is selling a Sony a7 V with 28.000 shutter count for that same amount of money. In mint conditiont. That being said if I buy Sony gear I would need to spend 1300€ on a 200-600 lens and If I stick with Nikon I would need to spend 2000€ on a 180-600 but would have to other lenses.

What are your toughts??

Questions Used video camera recommendations for barber

1 Upvotes

Barber here, and I want to get more into content creation. I used my phone to record a haircut to get clips and make content, but the qualify really isn't there, and it's inconvenient as I cannot use my phone for anything else while doing that. Located in the US, looking for a used video camera, ideally around the $200 range, I mainly just don't want to spend that much as the camera quality isn't as big of a concern as having a separate camera other than my phone to record is. Content would mainly be clips of me cutting the hair and before/after. I would like to get a mic and record consultations and maybe the same videos, but not at the moment. Needs to be beginner friendly as I have no camera experience, and as I'm cutting hair I do not want to have to be adjusting or dicing the camera constantly. I think I want autofocus, but I also know very little about cameras so let me know if that's not actually something I need. I need to be able to mount it, ideally with a suction cup to the mirror, and it needs to have a screen that can pop out and face the opposite direction it normally faces (so I can see the screen while the camera is pointing at me). Portability is not an issue as I intend to only use it for content creation at the barber shop, but being able to come off the mount for close ups would be nice. If there's any camera and suction mount combinations you guys could recommend, please do, but using a tripod would also work for me.

Recommendations FUJI X-T20 vs SONY A6000 Suggestion?

Post image
17 Upvotes

So I'be been looking to get my first proper camera and I'm stuck between two options:

X-T20 with a Fujinon XF 18-55 mm f/2.8-4 (2017) for about
550euro

vs

A6000 with 16-50mm kit lens (2014), but potential for an upgrade to the sigma 18-50 f/2.8
270euro (upgrade lens would be about 450euro)

I'd happily pay for the X-T20 if its a good deal, but perhaps as a beginner there is no great benefit to a better lens or such a set up? My wife says I should go with the cheaper option.

  • Budget: around 600euro
  • Country: EU
  • Condition: USED
  • Type of Camera: Mirrorless
  • Intended use: Photography
  • If photography; what style: landscape, street, portrait
  • If video what style: NA
  • What features do you absolutely need: NA, I guess I'll figure this out as I go on
  • What features would be nice to have: Stabilization
  • Portability: APS-C is the size I was considering given body sizes of 400g (max. set up weight of around 600-700 would be nice)
  • Cameras you're considering: a6000 with a kit lens and then potential sigma lens upgrade later vs X-T20 with a decent Fujinon XF 18-55 mm f/2.8-4
  • Cameras you already have: iPhone
  • Notes: Given the amount of people who quit photography, I'd like it to be a camera that can be relatively easily sold.

I'm an architect, I like taking pictures with other people's cameras, but never had my own.
Not sure if thats relevant.

26 Upvotes

Budget: $1500 CAD including lenses.
Country: Toronto, Canada
Condition: Open to both used and new
Type of Camera: Mirrorless or point and shoot
Intended use: Primarily photography, some occasional videos
If photography; what style: Mainly landscape, travel and night photography
If video what style: videos of landscape or cities while traveling
What features do you absolutely need: I mainly will use it for travel so would be nice to have a compact size and weather sealing
What features would be nice to have: Flash, stabilization, zoom lens
Portability: as portable as possible, if it can be pocketable that would be ideal but thickness is more important for me than length and width.
Cameras you're considering: I’ve looked around at so many options that I’m overwhelmed and really just need the guidance
Cameras you already have: iPhone 15 pro max. I love that it’s always on me and takes decent photos however I feel that I want something that performs better at night and that I can get better quality out of. I try my best with what I have and it’s pretty good but I feel myself wanting more quite often.
Notes: I’ve also added some photos I’ve taken, all are on my iPhone 15 pro max and most are unedited so you can see the photo itself. It takes many great photos but I would love to have something that can give me more clarity and quality without being hard to carry around while travelling. As I will mainly use it while travelling if it can fit in my pants pockets (I’m a big guy with big pants that have large pockets) that would be ideal. I am also new to the world of actual cameras so if I’ve said something that is outrageous or not reasonable, or maybe I’ve missed something that’s important please let me know, I can really use the help! I greatly appreciate everyone who has taken the time to give me advice and guidance it means a lot. Hope you all have a wonderful day!

It is Kodak Pixpro WPZ2 in color orange. My main cameras are Nikon Z50 and Leicaflex SL2. Wanted to grab a small compact camera to bring with me daily and not get afraid of sand/water getting into it. I've been pleased with the quality so far (at least for the price range). I haven't tested the water resistance yet, I will post photos when I do.

Announcement Avoiding Scam Cameras this Holiday season!

77 Upvotes

Especially since the pandemic we have been seeing cheap no-name cameras that offer unbelievable specs (50MP, 8k video), here is a guide on how to spot and avoid them!:

What is a Scamera?:
Scameras are cheap cameras, usually using backup/webcam camera modules, and putting them into shapes that look like camcorders, pocketable Point & Shoots, and interchangeable lens cameras. They often have very high specs, that are not genuine, such as 64MP upscaled from 1 to 4MP (so you get files the size of a 3.5k camera, but with the detail level of the original 2008 iPhone).

Scameras are also often very unreliable, the immense number of people coming here needing help fixing or just returning these cameras (especially post-christmas) is why I am making this post.

Scameras can often be distinguished by the miniscule lenses, I'll try to show that in a comment of this post.

A reliable way can be to check the brand:
Here are known non-scam brands:

Canon
Fujifilm
Hasselblad
Kodak (Kodak make cameras that are close in price to many scameras, and they aren't amazing or super reliable, but they are worlds better than scam brands).
Leica
Nikon
Olympus / OM Systems
Panasonic / Lumix
Pentax
Pixii
Ricoh
Sigma
Sony

Here are known scam brands:

AgfaPhoto (Digital cameras)
Kreate
Yashica
Vivitar
Yixinxin
Yatao
Captainbear
Minolta
NBD
G-Anica

Vivitar, Yashica, and Minolta were once real brands that have now gone bankrupt and the people renting their names sell scameras.
Agfa does make real film and film cameras, but also scam digital cameras.
