Can blurry photos be better than sharp photos?
A lot of photography talk is about accurate focusing. But why not let your focusing run wild and see what happens. I argue that in some situations wrong focusing could actually improve your photography. The abstract nature of these photos can have even more impact. I call this intentionally out of focus photography - whether you got your focus wrong intentionally or it just happened. Photography is a visual art, so don’t let anyone tell you how to focus. If you don’t have a customer with specific needs, you are free!

My Fuji X-A1 is dying! What to do next?

    so when we use nikkor lens on fuji body using lens adapter, we losing the AF ability on nikkor lens? I'm planning on buying secondhand Tokina 11-16mm F2.8 to capture architectures. Can you give the alternatives to it?

    • @tom_photo
      @tom_photo Před 7 hodinami

      Hi! Indeed, if you are using a 'dumb' adapter, you do not have the AF ability. There are also 'smart' adapters available that support all functions, but they are more expensive. Fuji has a wonderful wide-angle zoom lens that might interest you - the Fuji XF 10-24mm F/4 R. A lot of people like that lens. Best of luck to you!

    Exellent video! Based on your videos I bought a D3300 for 210 euros and a 18-55 P! for 40 euros I was looking for a lighter camera next to my D700 and D300s. The results I am getting are really amazing. I was also thinking about Fuji but I am a rather old school person hating to leave the dslr. How much better is the fuji 18-55 compared to the Nikon is then a relevant question which no one seems to answer.

    I'm sure a lot of aging performers and news hosts would prefer the taking lenses were from around 1960. The book Proust Was A Neuroscientist goes over the early topic you brought up. How the brain interprets the world before it actually sees it clearly. Handy in dangerous situations. What adds to this is that there are more neurons running to the eyes from the brain than there are from the eyes to the brain. It also discusses artists using techniques that foretold how the world is actually perceived. Fun book.

    So I have done multiple tests and while I respect your explanations those do not seem to apply to my GFX cameras. In the sense that DR setting does affect the RAW directly. I understand what you meant regarding the JPG conversion where the camera does offer you to apply the DR setting to produce the JPG but this is a a different process that the DR setting when shooting and producing the RAW. I can clearly see a difference when editing the RAW versions of a same scene with constant lighting (street at night with only a lamp post to lit the scene. I can recover more the highlights in the RAW shot with DR400 than with DR100 or DR200. I am obviously not talking about simply looking at the embded JPG ( as you mentioned in another post). I am talking about actually moving the highlight recovery cursor in the development module. That is all the proof that RD setting affect the production of the RAW. The 3 RAW files are clearly not the same. Even Kim Kasson wrote a blog post with the RAWDigger graphs illustrating that. When testing on my X-T5, I can confirm it worked the same way.

      Hi! Thank you for asking. Indeed, I think this is one of the best cameras for beginners. It has all the functions and is easy to use at the same time. Kind regards!

    I believe you‘ll find that incandescent (tungsten) bulbs will flicker a lot more than good-quality LED ones, as the latter require a capacitor as part of the AC/DC rectifier which will reduce or eliminate voltage level change caused by AC. LEDs do flicker, but this is induced by the electronics to reduce power consumption - this should be a frequency beyond that captured by the camera shutter.

    Sounded like my XF1's symptoms when the internal FPC is breaking but in your case changing lens changed nothing. How about cleaning those camera-lens contact pads?

      Hi! Thank you for this tip. I did some cleaning but maybe I should try more. Kind regards!

      @@tom_photo not contact pads but pogo pins; should try and spray some contact cleaner on it.

    I was planning on buying a second hand x-a1 but you talked me out of it. I've read so mùch about it's impressive sensor, but alas, I may have settle down with the newer x-trans sensor.

      Hi Gilbert! Thank you very much for watching. I think the X-A1 is a great camera still. Eventually all cameras will stop working. Kind regards!

    You could have compared the images by zooming and showing the details. I've read that the x-trans tend to MUSH foliage. The Bayer, however, do not.

    So many nice pictures! I was reminded of my own vacations in Italy. You managed to capture a lot of "atmosphere". 3 sec per image was fast, I wanted to look more. Some commentary in the video would have made it even better. I noticed less slanted lines on buildings (than expected) (looked good), then I read your comment about Gimp. (I have a Fujifilm X-E2, too).

      Hi! Thank you very much, indeed. I agree about 3 sec being too fast. Kind regards!

    the Nikon D3500 is much better than the D3400 check this link czcams.com/video/On0ROmH2Z5g/video.html
