Hello. This video is very interesting. I'd like to seek your advance, actually I use gfx 100S and GF45F2.8, GF110F2. Now in europe Fujifilm is on campaign cashback, so I'm interested in 80F1.7, but I'm also interested in Mitakon 65, it is very good separation from object and background. I'm afraid that the sharpness in open wide Fstop of Mitakon 65. 80F1.7 is very similler to 110F2 and I know good quality of sharpness in wide Fstop F1.7, but I think Mitakon has unique image of 3D. Do you like and use very much Mitakon 65? Is it very good lens of image quality of sharpness?

With regards to the z5 stopping at 200 it may just be a setting that stops at 200, possibly increasing that may help. Incidentally have you tied eye/face af with the z5 in low to mid lighting - is it accurate in af/c or is it better to use af/s or single point ? - just curious as I have heard by others that its not its strong point in af/c low light - any comments would be much appreciated
@paulfrancisphotography Жыл бұрын
I have never seen or heard of a setting that limits the number of photos taken on any Nikon or the Z5, but I am interested to know if there is such a setting. In regards to the eye/face AF, it is definitely less reliable than single point AF. When I used the Z5 for dark dance floor pictures at weddings, I had to use the Dynamic-Area AF mode for better accuracy. I did not see any difference (on mirrorless) in AF accuracy between using AF-S or AF-C modes so I always keep my AF on continuous.

For my particular use, which is what this video is about, backing up multiple memory cards on the drive home is best done with a device like this, where you can start it before you begin driving and everything’s done when you get home.

That really depends. If I could only use one lens the entire day, personally I’d go with a 50mm 1.4 or 1.8. But I use different lenses for different parts of the day. Mostly the 50mm but a 70-200 f4 (lighter and cheaper) for ceremonies, speeches, parent dances. 28mm for dance floor and wide group shots. Those three lenses I could stick with for a whole wedding.

What’s cool about the mode dial on the 50Sii compared to its predecessor: it remembers different WB settings! Mitakon seems tempting…
I have the memory settings setup on my main wedding cameras but haven’t taken the time on the GFX yet. The Mitakon is a fun creative lens, for the money it’s the best bang for the buck on the GFX system, IMHO.
Nice video Paul. Hope all is well.
Thank Joe! I am well, we’ll have to catch up soon!
Update 2022: . The CHEAPEST Gnarbox solution (for Android & Samsung Users) is to simply plug the Card Reader (USB-Type C) into your smartphone and drag & drop the files. This works extremely well, especially if your smartphone STILL HAS 👉EXPANDABLE EXTERNAL MEMORY CARD👈 options. . Sidenote: Please stop rewarding these Smartphone manufactures with your hard-earned money, for new devices that LOCK you out of ACTUAL "PRO FEATURES"...but still want to use the phrase "PRO" to market their devices. 🙏
A phone is great if you’re just backing up pictures on a trip or from one camera here and there. For my particular use, which is what this video is about, backing up multiple memory cards on the drive home is best done with a device like this, where you can start it before you begin driving and everything’s done when you get home.
More Reviews Please lol
Thanks! I am going to try and get in the habit of creating more content!
Adobe favorite Apple is sad samsung tab screen is better in every way
Confirmo todo lo expresado en este video acerca de la Z5, una cámara fabulosa, no se precisa más, salvo para deportes muy exigentes, que podrían cubrirse con una reflex d500 mientras no surja su equivalente en mirrorless aps c. Dicho esto último hablando de mantenerse dentro de una ecuación razonable para usuarios independientes. Las cámaras de mayor costo son para agencias. Saludos desde Uruguay!!!!!
what is bothering me the most is that in the android version the sidebar is taking up way more space. I'm wondering if it's possible to resize the UI in the galaxy tab
I think you can resize it somehow I'm not sure but I love my tab s8+ especially for premire pro and lrcc
I wish I would have clients that want photoshoots like these😂. I only had people in a hurry, that mostly want generic photos and don't care at all about the background clutter. Last wedding I shot they couldn't understand why I had someone take the bottles of sodas/water off the table before taking some pics .😂😵
Currently I own d600. Wanna change camera, which should I get, d750 or z5? Any suggestion pls...
2 years after the problem is still there. Even comparing a pixel 4a to an old iphone 6s, Lightroom is MUCH quicker on the iphone and has more features. A shame 😭
It’s sad that there is such a big difference in performance on the two
It because Adobe favorite crapple
Does it do a checksum when transferring files?
Is the Tab S4 syncing photos throughout this video? Whats with the loading indicator in blue at the top?
Fantastic review!
Any updates?, this has been out for a while, wondering if there are any new/better options since you made the video, thanks!.
How does the lowlight performance (af and high iso) and dynamic range performance between the d750 vs z5?
What lens is the best to use for wedding photos??
That really depends. If I could only use one lens the entire day, personally I’d go with a 50mm 1.4 or 1.8. But I use different lenses for different parts of the day. Mostly the 50mm but a 70-200 f4 (lighter and cheaper) for ceremonies, speeches, parent dances. 28mm for dance floor and wide group shots. Those three lenses I could stick with for a whole wedding.
