You fags convinced me to ditch my fuji for a more "serious" camera. An A7iii. Now I realize I probably should've just ungraded to an X-T3. I never thought I'd come to hate taking pictures but this snoy takes all the fun away from it. I want my hipster camera back.

>>3835034 >My Nikon V1 from 2011 can do this automatically, what were Sony thinking? Automatically isn't the problem. The Sony also does it automatically. What I want is to be able to do it manually, for those times when the face-detection sensor in the viewfinder fails and either shows the view on the LCD when my eye's pressed against the viewfinder or shows the view on the EVF when I'm trying to compose something in the LCD and a shadow falls across the camera.
It happens surprisingly frequently and it's frustrating as hell when it does.

>>3834253 Don't know about the A7ii but the A7iii onwards you just push the little nipple to the side and it moves the AF box
Or just tap the screen

>>3835048 >But you can assign this to a custom button Nope. You can't. Not on an A7II. In the menu for assigning functions to buttons, there's no setting to assign a button to let you change whether the EVF or LCD is the primary display.
If you think there is, I invite you to search the A7II manual online and find it for me.

>>3834252 >>3835049 > but the A7iii onwards That doesn't help me, because I have an A7II which doesn't have the AF point selection joystick and doesn't have a touchscreen.

Have a S1H and recently have freelancing money to upgrade. Should I sell it for a Sony, Canon, Blackmagic, or Red? If so, what camera should I get?

>>3834804 >>3834873 cine lenses are all manual because it gives you more control. with autofocus if your lens goes hunting or messes up the focus you have to redo the whole shot. it's just not worth the headache when you can just move your hand a little bit. so why bother with autofocus?

>>3835005 The native resolution of a 10mp file printed to 48" is going to be roughly 80ppi. Scaling it might hide the stair stepping/jaggies of individual pixels, but it's going to look soft as shit.
>>3835000 Fucking this. Sports pros/wedding photogs might be fine with 20-30mp. But big print landscape/fashion guys are shooting high resolution FF at the least, high rez MF backs or high rez LF film scans beyond that. That's 42mp or higher.

>>3834859 I think there's noticeable difference when jumping in multiples of 2, kinda like a photo version of Moore's law.
But we've surely plateaued. We've had 36MP in 35mm in 2012, we haven't even doubled that in 10 years. Compare that in early days of digital where you'd get double res every couple years.

Only professionals should be buying standalone cameras nowadays.

honestly the greatest part about just having a decent phone, is 99% of people just want a nice camera that's going to get a decent shot of what ever is happening, they'll also always have their phone on them.

I bought my phone (Pixel 4a) because everyone said it was up there with the best phones for photography but it's still just really soft and relies for 100% on automated post production.

What's the cheapest way I can shoot at 1000mm+ focal length - ideally with OIS? I want to take detailed horizon shots from airplanes or the tops of mountains. Pic is a crop-in so not very detailed, but similar to what I'm going for
Anonymous
>>3834968 Bokeh is shit on a mirror lens, as is overall IQ (typically). If money is that big of a deal then P900 or P1000.
>>3834973 If you're attaching a mirror lens you're throwing away any large sensor IQ gains any way.

>>3834977 Main reason for mentioning mirror lenses is that plenty of telescopes are essentially mirror lenses anyway.

Does anyone use Android software to interface with their DSLR? Pic related looks like it only works with mirrorless (looking for a pirated version to confirm). I'd like to use an old Android device to manage photos i'm taking in real time, show a HUD with WB, ISO, shooting mode, bracketing, whatever is possible.

>>3834778 Camera Connect? Just reading about that one, looks amazing. Even works with the 5D, whereas it looks like my D90 of the same vintage (albeit in a lower market segment) has been left out to dry
