Welcome to the club! It’s an excellent camera!

Hello fellow m50 user :) yeah its a beastly little camera I use it for everything these days! even some wedding stuff. I like the 6d and 5d. Looking to potentially get one of those at some point. I couldn't agree more they where very stupid to end the line, trying to get us to purchase EOS R!!! :) thanks for the comment!

Yeah the m6 is a cool camera! 📸 and yeah it’s definitely the end of the line. Fortunately my speedbooster allows it to stay living for a good while either way my ef lenses.

Thank you! Yes the m50 is a beast of a camera!

Thank you! 🙏

That is correct yes, other than the black and white one. Thank you for your comment :)

Thank you 🙏

I couldn’t have said it any better! It’s really sad to see. The beach at Southport is basically a cricket pitch these days just full of grass 😂 and the occasional polluted tide. Thanks for watching! I’m heading up towards Manchester in a few weeks for another street photography session.

Thank you! 🙏

I totally agree! It’s almost beautiful and ugly at the same time

Cheers dude! Much appreciated

@zaptosemedia of course! Trying to catch up on videos as Ive done a poor job of keeping up with them!

Thank you! 🙏 yes it’s a quiet town unfortunately. I usually go to Liverpool, but wanted to see what I could capture in Southport. Thanks for the comment 😊

Hi Thanks I'm glad you enjoyed it. The opening video is a commercial for the canon 300D, I did nothing in terms of processing other than increase the temp and contrast in Davinci resolve. The film like look is because the source footage was recorded of off a video tape I think so had some natural degradation due to age. Hope that helps you! :) thanks for the comment.

It is a street beast!

Cheers mate!

Thank you for your comment :) If I don't try I won't learn 📷

I definitely found it complex/confusing to look at/hear about 😂 probably one of those things that makes sense once you get the hang of it and definitely something very interesting that I look forward to using in the future though. I agree, practice makes perfect!

With all due respect, what people call Zone System these days is just a highly watered down version of what Adams and Archer invented. If you really wanted to understand how it works, and it is not difficult at all but highly involved, I would advise you to read Ansel Adam's book The Negative, and then The Print.The Zone System is from Camera to Print and all were based on the concept of visualisation that Adams pioneered. He would print with consideration of how the print would be displayed and what type of lighting would be used. The notion of meter for the shadows and develop for the highlights is just a consequence of the application of the Zone system. Contrary to what the other guy said, it is as applicable to B&W film photography as it is to colour negative, transparency and more so to digital. @@Chloe11124

@@Chloe11124 Adams just followed the old old rule ........ expose for the shadows - develop for the highlights.

Thanks for the advice on the books, I will definitely check them out! As for it being watered down I agree completely. The take home for me ultimately was to be more mindful of how I expose my images. As a self declared “noob” I feel like learning and understanding these sorts of things will ultimately contribute to better images from a technical perspective.

I can assure you that it will also help with the artistic side of your photography , knowing how to achieve what your minds eye has seen. Adams's photographs are not just technical masterpieces, but they are photographic art of the highest order which do not rely on fads, fashions or cliches. Good on you for being so open minded. @@zaptosemedia

Thank you for your comments :) I have just had a look at Sally Mann, her portrait photography is beautiful. Perhaps this could be another subject for another episode! Thanks for your suggestion.

Thank you very much :) I have returned the favour. Thanks for watching!

Greetings @JGucka I’m glad you enjoyed it :) thanks for the comment and thanks for stopping in.

cheers dude it is indeed!

That’s awesome! You won’t regret it. These are great little cameras.

Thank you for your kind words! I will definitely be making more of these. I find it helps immensely, especially getting out into the outdoors.

@@zaptosemedia Me too with outdoors.

Cheers dude! If you ever come to the UK you are more than welcome to join me! as for the strap you have excellent taste! :D I could not recommend the Sigma enough its a lovely lens and well worth the money.

@@zaptosemedia Ill make sure to join you when I visit the UK! Sigma makes some great stuff and I have been wondering about the 16mm f1.4, 30mm f1.4, and the 56 f1.4 lenses.. that 30mm looks great!

@@BrownieBits450 That's it, they are a set, I am thinking of getting the 56mm as well at some point. Well priced as well.

@@zaptosemedia yea... Idk if I have the money for the set, so I meant I was looking at them separately since I cant get them all at once... my fault! I think Im gonna have to take a break with purchasing gear after I get the s5ii and the 16-35 f4 lens... I just need to build up and use what I have then and learn it perfectly!

@@BrownieBits450 I get you! I got mine from a company called MBP not sure if that is something in the states. But it is used and not the full set. It's certainly an expensive hobby hahaha. My wife hates me for all the camera gear I get :D

Couldn't agree with you more! coming up to three months since I have owned it and love it! not so much for video (I have better options for that) But for photography its just a beast and in such a compact form as well! Thanks for the comment!

Hi Howard. I use davinci resolve for editing. For screen capture I used obs. Both are free applications.

Hi Thanks for your comment! That's cool! Mine didn't come with that lens unfortunately. But I have fallen in love with it regardless. I use mine for photography more than anything else. Just purchased a 30mm sigma lens for it. I have not given up on the video side of things with the G100 I am going to try again with it soon.

Cheers! Glad you liked it! I wanted to try something new. A bit more narrative driven.

@@zaptosemedia it worked extremely well! Great job!

Thanks for the Comment dude! Glad you liked it.

Thank you! That's it we all plod along :) I think that's half of my problem too many lens choices. I will definitely try this next time. merry Christmas . 🎄🎄🎄🎄

That’s it. Sometimes it’s that simple…it’s funny how we as humans over complicate things. Especially when something as simple as going out and getting amongst natures beauty can fix it! Thanks for the comment dude. Hope your well!

Couldn’t agree more!

That's what I have started using mine for. Paired with my 1.7 20mm lens it is tiny in comparison to other cameras. And the image's output is just brilliant.

Thanks for the kind words! How do you like your G100?

@@zaptosemedia I’m enjoying it nice to carry around because the size and shoots good still shots

Couldn’t agree more. Still working out kinks with the video but photography seems to be its strength as far as I am concerned. Thanks for the comment.

Hey Widlisha, I couldn’t agree more with you! The photographs this thing produces is amazing for the money! I’ve been taking a lot of street photography as of late and it’s just such a versatile camera! Thanks for Commenting.

Hi, I agree with you. For stills this camera is a beast for the money it costs. Couldn't agree more. The video bugs me it could be perfect but it's far from it. For the time being I will stick with my G80 for video (IBIS) but for stills I will use the G100, I can not see myself to get rid of it it's really growing on me.

Oh interesting I’ll have a look at that! Thanks for letting me know!
