Who is the woman in the videos?

They all talk the same, White men and women are so pretentious, no one is putting their feet on the ground lol

Luke is absolutely right once again. Why fix something that is not only not broken, but is the best technology we've ever had? I'm not getting into these "mirrorless" cameras when the cameras that actually *_have_* mirrors work better than anything I've ever had

What a neat video! Thank you!

"miraculously the shots were fine" bro has no Idea how ISO works

For me.... it's about cost. Paying thousands more for a small improvement in IQ (Image Quality)..... is not cost effective.

What can I say? Ever since I came across you a few days ago, my thoughts have been in major upheaval. Truths Ive felt but tried to ignore. When someone makes me this uncomfortable, it's most always been a good thing. I remember how much Jiddu Krishnamurti pissed me off when I first read him. Thanks for making me uncomfortable, Dan. It's about time I got off my ass. It's so much more than that but there has been a fundamental shift in my thinking. Thanks again.

This was great. Thank you.

Why I use DSLR and drive a manual transmission! The mechanical experience is real, we are human, do not ignore the human experience.

Technology matures like dslrs when it started decades ago. Mirroless isnt just removing mirrors that flips but way more than that. It improves many things that dslr can just wish it has.

When you are the embodyment of Cool, you are always cool!

2024 already. I purchased two Canon R5 cameras and a few overly priced RF lenses. I have kept some of my Nikon SDLR cameras and a few lenses. The battery life on the ML cameras do suck. I am seriously considering selling/trading my ML cameras to get back into DSLRS where I can afford the lenses and batteries. I am now retired and just enjoy taking pictures. I have had to purchase a battery pack and numerous batteries just to take my ML for a few days up in the mountains or on vacation. I have had a Nikon D4s for years, a D700 and a D810. I should have kept my Nikon lenses and just upgraded to a D850 and forgone the ML route. It is the enjoyment of taking pictures with a camera and not a computer. If I was a pro shooter with years left maybe a ML is the way to go.

I felt fomo in regards to mirrorless cameras but this basically wiped it.

Where can i submit my photographs to be critiqued ?❤

I heard the same argument when they switched from film to dslr back in the day. Lol

interesting thoughts, thx for the interview :)

I'm trying to think of the painter whose book discussed in depth the subject of natural light, how the eyes register light and brain interprets light information, and how real-world media (pigment) works to reflect light. All this taught me to practice looking at landscapes to understand where light is being bounced and what the real colors are. Because the brain is doing a lot of work translating what is really there into what we expect to be there.

I always have my Soviet lomo LC-A with me all the time, sometimes one of those certain German rangefinders (with a 35 f2), occasionally a giant modern DSLR.

Excellent Black & White presentation.

What software are you sequencing on?

Great tips.

I shot from 1968 to 1998 with SLRs. After a mix of digital I went to DSLR. I do have some point and shoots but I still love the DSLR. I even have an affinity to SLRs in 6x6 where the image is reversed. I found that this very thing allowed me to still have a real world view but also allowed me to compose better. I shot video professionally from 1978-2010. You would think I might not care which one I use but I still like SLR/DSLR. I'm 71, just at old f***...

I have both types of technology but I always find myself gravitating back to the DSLR. I completely agree that even though they have cut the display lag significantly, they will never reach the speed of light. The closest thing is a Z9/Z8 (or Sony's A9/A1 series) with the stacked sensor technology and zero lag viewing, but it is still a processed version of reality. The argument for mirrorless viewfinders that irks me the most is that you get to see what the camera is picking for exposure and have an opportunity to correct this before capture. Two problems with this: 1) In the heat of the action who has time to make corrections on the fly?; 2) Since when have exposure systems gotten so bad that this is necessary? This argument is totally lame. I don't have a D4, but I do have the Df and absolutely love that 16 MP sensor. While I really liked my D700, I like my Df even more. All of this just to say you are not alone in your position on this topic. Cheers!

I’ve got a Nikon D7100 and a D810 that I will rock until the wheels fall off! The F mount is just legendary and the image quality of a classic Nikon DSLR will one day be nostalgic and sought after! Mark my words! DSLR is the new film lol

If it is about the image quality, i dont think there is any need to switch to mirrorless…nothing to worry about image sharpness, color grading, noise reduction etc. all of that can be post processed using the excellent apps/editors available today…camera companies had to create mirrorless to stay in competition as the consumer markets moved towards smartphones…and then came Sony, so all other brands followed suit to beat the competition…unless you are a camera brand ambassador or “that” youtube tech channel guy who is under the pressure to show off his channel, you can be a great photographer with a DSLR…have you ever seen those flat raw images of mirrorless cameras from even the famous photographers? You will then know what i am talking about 😀

This photo was severely cropped from the original negative as can be seen in John Loengard's photo of this frame. Maybe was the last frame of the film and and because it was partially not exposed.

I may just be the last person on earth to buy a brand new Canon 5D MARK IV on 23/4/2024 and for the second time!! 😮 Let me explain. I had the 5Dmk4 with EF 50 mm f/1.2 and EF 70-200 f/2.8 mkll for 7 years and after selling everything around 5 months ago to switch to mirrorles again🤦🏻‍♂️I came across my all time favourite Canon lens the chunky EF 24-70 f/2.8 L USM on gumtree in its original box in brand new condition “and yes I know what you’re thinking” I bought it straight away thinking it’ll go great with the R6 Mark ll stabilised body🙂 well what do you know, the EVF was the biggest disappointment once again.

One more question that 'bothers' me: what do you think about the black border (presumably) added after the crop for the print shown in this interview bit. If the image is cropped, as stated, there should not be an edge visible. If it is a fake negative edge, could we call it a fraude? Could he / his printers have done it with more iconic images. He always left the edge of the negative in the print to 'prove' you don't need to crop an image. Edit: ..but this one is cropped ánd shows the black negative border, which does not add up imo

If you wanna see real life, just use your eyes lol I rather see in my camera how the actual picture is going to look like, because I use a camera to take pictures, not for sight seeing.

I think you need to make the mistake of taking too much with you before you can really understand the benefits of keeping it simple. The same goes for fumbling with camera setting and missing a shot, always take the shot. Capturing the moment is always of priority over perfect exposure and focus. If you keep your gear simple and consistent you will learn to set your camera without having to look at it, and instead can keep your head up observing what is going on around you.

Matt! great Pictures! You`re so better photographer than CZcamsr! ;-) Nice to see so fantastic shots! Amazing!

great video very educational looking into the mindset

Pic pic pic pic...😂

I have Nikon F's, F2. F3 so you might expect me to stick with my D500 while I still breathe.

When I started vvlogging, i thought i needed to switch to a mirrorless, so I did. But luckily I didnt sell all my dslrs, and I still now use my 30d because then for photography, I think the user experience of a mirrorless cant quite replace the dslrs. And yes, I do like the optical VF, as well as the chunky body with a firm grip. And I have small hands.

I was about to buy a canon r50 and was so shocked it shoot 360 pics before it dies. I had a nikon d3400 years back and it did 1500 before it died but I used to complain about the battery life on it. Thank you for the video, now I know exactly which camera to buy.

"The difference is in the experience ..." yeah, like with a horse and cart versus a car.

I wonder if there are enough idiots to keep Pentax going with that strategy.

100% Agree... I do share the same felling, and I use canon 90D and I have no interest on a full frame camera.

Had to choose last month between a D850 or moving on to the Z series . . . my D500 gave me 74,000 shots beyond its rating and I couldn't even be upset at it for dying . . . and I ended up opting for the D850 for many of the reasons you're stating. I'm sure my next camera will be a Z-something in 5-7 years but I have no regrets through the first 1,000 shots.

A highlight of my life was meeting and talking with Ansel Adams. He was a kind and gentle man, and genius photographer.

whats crazy is 5 of those 7 DSLRs were also over 10 years old, 2 were Canon D1-X which is a 14mp sensor.

As a NIKON DSLR user with a 14 year old D90 , a 11 year old D7000 and D600 bought used 7 years ago I have no interest in mirrorless cameras and all 3 of the nikons are working great and only the D7000 has had any repairs after a internal electrical fault . With them all being older cameras I have been able to buy good genuine battery grips for all 3 used at a reasonable cost and also kirk arca swiss type L brackets at low prices rather than buying china made will fit sort of brackets .

I shoot Canon...who cares, I have 3 DSLR's and one mirrorless. The feeling of shooting with a DSLR is like a shot gun, and a mirrorless is like a 22LR. And that is in a good way for the DSLR's. It's the ergonomics, the weigth...the feling when the mirror flips up. :) And I hate EVF's...

Wonderful colors to set the mood.

Great subject… I am more interested in this type of discussion than camera or genre discussion. Visualization and process execution is where is at for me. Being able to see the image in my head and then working for the composition down to the processing to get the image I envisioned is my interest. The San Juan Mountain image is fabulous, and the first photo shown was impressive. I also like to shoot 56mm and wider. If I can’t get it, I’ll get closer.

I prefer the smaller size of mirrorless, being able to have a full frame camera like my a7cii on my cargos pockets or in a small travel bag is priceless to me

Gracias no sabía lo de la foto Pepers Muchas Gracias.
