I've been using a Canon 650D for years now, but I'm considering switching to a Sony camera.
Im just casual amateur photographer, using the camera mainly for capturing family & friends moments, holiday vacations, school events and preferences over landscapes, streets, and occasionally wildlife or sports. Should I opt for an APS-C body or a full-frame? video recording is optional, photography is my main focus.
I tried my buddy's camera, Sony a6000 to get feel for it & he uses VILTROX AF 50mm f/1.8 FE & Stigma 16mm DC.
Decision: I chose either A6700 or A7R3/4.
I'm thinking of buying new lenses or budget used lenses:

• Don't mind other suggestions for Sony E lenses.

Thank you

I thought that there was one company that actually cared about the consumer but it's just another company that cares more about everything else. That's how my opinion has changed on Nothing.
Typing this from a nothing phone 2.
3 of my friends have the phone 1 and all of them have complaints, ranging from photos not saving (I've had that one too), phone overheating and hanging up, low performance, etc. The largest one, is nothing just outright ignoring the issues with the phone 1 and not giving them much in the form of updates as they gave the phone 2. I understand they want to sell more of the new phone but they have ignored the people who trusted their first phone.
I preordered the phone 2 and have had it since day 1. My problems (phone 2) have been, it sometimes becomes unresponsive when I am recieving a whatsapp call. The camera sometimes doesnt save pictures. It has a twice or thrice gotten very hot on a phone call, so much that I couldnt keep it on my cheek. Inconsitency in photos has been a thing, ans they dont save sometimes. Overall the phone isnt bad. The phone never told me if an update was available. I always had to check myself. There's no real use of the glyphs. Because you cant use the timer in the clock app to use the glyph timer. And its really easy to stop it midway by mistake. There arent many apps that use the glyph integration, and the ones that do are inconsistent. Zomato has only worked once for me. And I checked, its still on. I dont use uber.
The good about the phone. Great battery life, one of the best phones at the price, Looks great, pictures are very nice, not as good as pixel or samsung or iphones. But this has its own look and I like it. Even though it isnt consistent and wont save some pictures. It was fixed but still happens sometimes. Love the Nothing UI.
The marketing from nothing is the stupidest I have ever seen from a company. They called a kid to reveal a product and it was visible on his face that he was asking the questions that they told him to ask. The video in which they answered the concerns with phone 2(a) 's design. I actually liked the design personally but the way they handled it in the video sounded like this - "we know that people have not recieved it well. We know people dont like it. But we made it and it is a good design, and we know it, and people dont understand it" it didnt feel like they owned the idea. They didnt accept it and it felt like a media trained answer. Something like an apple kind of reply. They didnt really say well we tried to do something new and that's what innovation is. That's all I was waiting to hear through the whole video.
The glyph was improved the apple way. The glyph interface for nothing phone 1 was never updated. Even though they could have added features like priority notifications, notification for a certain app etc. The nothing phone 3 will have some new glyph features that the 2 could trchnically have but they just gatekeep it like apple. The nothing composer could easily have a communtiy tab to share tracks and if they havent yet considered the idea. They should stop calling themselves innovators. I can myself think of atleast 10 new ways that the glyph interface could be used to improve the experience but they are just not improving it. It's just a gimmick to me. Just a party trick.
Also cmf buds pro suck, the noise cancellation is so bad, that they seem expensively bad.
I might still consider buying another nothing phone in the future, but not with the idea that they are a company that want the consumer to have what they want. They are just another company making smartphones.
Also atrocious naming scheme. Is it going to be the nothing phone (3) or the 'nothing phone' this time? Who is that dumb? Who are you? The USB forum?

Hey I'm trying to transfer over mini DV to digital (mac) and am trying to buy all the cables to convert it, but there seems to be one (the Apple Thunderbolt to FireWire) they don't sell on amazon, and everyone on ebay is selling it for $100+
Is there another way to convert it to digital and onto my mac? or am I gonna have to shell out the money.

Just some things I’ve noticed and would want pre-trip me to know:

1. Food is very important here. Finishing everything on your plate is good! Leaving food may be seen as ungrateful, so if you don’t think you’ll finish and there’s a “half-portion” option, go for that. (I have native family here that took me to dinner-as an American I’m used to big portions and leaving food- they thought I didn’t like what I ordered when I couldn’t finish everything)
   
2. Avoid strong smells, even if it’s good. I’m a perfume girl back home so I brought some of my favorites in mini sample sizes. I haven’t used them once. It’s a rule back home anyway to avoid perfume on public transit, and I completely miscalculated how much of my time would be spent riding the metro each day.
   
3. This might be an obvious for some, but I had no idea what “tax-free” shopping was before I arrived. If the shop is tax-free and you’re spending at least 5500¥, you get in a special line, show your passport, and you don’t have to pay Japan taxes. Just make sure you calculate your total before getting in line. Also side note: if you’re planning on buying lots of tax-free stuff from Don Quijote, they wrap it up and tell you not to open it until you’ve landed back home. So if you’re like me and want to use some of the stuff for your stay, make a tax free transaction then a regular transaction for immediate use.
   
4. Some places don’t like cameras. In LA, everyone is vlogging or posting or snapping pictures- it’s normal and considered free marketing. But places like anime merch shops and some markets/ konbinis have signs. I even got yelled at for trying to snap a picture of a food stall. It’s weird to me that they don’t want people showing others what they sell, but still respect these signs and owners wishes.
   
5. Pasmo and Suica aren’t exactly the same. I got a Suica card on arrival thinking they were based on limited research. Suica works great for the central Tokyo lines (Lines with a single letter eg. A, H, Z). Had to go to Shibuya to get a pasmo when I didn’t want to keep buying physical tickets for the JR lines (Lines with two letters eg. KK, JN, KO). You can get by with just a Suica and some cash, but when a million other tourists are in the ticket line trying to get back into Tokyo, having a Pasmo really saves you.
   
6. Not really advice, but recommendation for early risers based on my experience: shopping and other stores usually don’t open until 11am. If you’re like me you’re ready to start the day at 7 or 8am. I recommend getting to the area you’re going to be spending the day in, getting a coffee, then going to the nearest park/ shrine to stroll in. It’s a great way to get some sightseeing in while waiting for stuff to open.
   
7. Humidity is a killer here. If the weather says 60F and sunny it’s gunna feel 10 degrees hotter because of the moisture. It makes sense why you hardly see people in denim. Even still, women are still wearing long sleeves. Older women wear linen and maxi dresses, while younger go for shorts, skirts, and lightweight cargos. If you don’t care about fitting in, tank tops and light baggy jeans are the way to go.
   

Sorry for the wordy post. Again, this is stuff I have noticed and would tell past me about. I hope this is helpful for anyone traveling to Tokyo soon!

Hello, our group of 6 players are looking Dungeon Master willing to participate in Live-streamed D&D content. We are hoping to build a channel from scratch around Dungeons and Dragons that involves live game play on camera, as well as other content related to D&D. We are looking for a DM that is passionate about their work and above all else willing to be a member of our team! The DM will be only responsible for bringing the world to life as the technical side of things will be handled by the players (video overlays, recordings, editing etc)
Gametime: Weekly on Mondays 8pm, Eastern Standard Time. Looking at around 3-3.5 hours of gameplay Prerequisites: Good quality webcam and camera, computeinternet to support livestreaming, experience with using VTTs Setting: The group prefers High-Fantasy and using D&D 5e rules (homebrewed rules to make the game more engaging/exciting are allowed). We would prefer a homebrewed world where Player Character story development is encouraged. Current players are a mix of newer to very experienced Other: As the group is in its infancy we want to play a mini-campaign with the new DM for 2-3 months before going live with the channel. More details can be discussed in private!
If this is something that is of interest you can send me a message on Reddit or contact me on discord: aPDTrain#5791

Hi, X-T3 owner here. I adore Fuji and recently started thinking about buying something better for shooting music videos and indie films.
I was thinking about trying out FX3 or BMCC, but I decided I want to stay with Fuji because I love the colors camera produces and their industrial design + familiarity with ecosystem.
Can someone tell me a bit more about your experience, uspsides and downsides with X-H2S?
I’ve watched bunch of Youtube videos and examples, some terrific and some terrible, and came to conclusion that YouTube is simply not a measurment for camera quality (because skill of the tubers + YT compression on top of it).
Any info is much appreciated!

I'm looking to buy one of the following 3 cameras:

1. Dji action 4
2. Go pro hero 12
3. Insta 360 ace pro

My main pet peeve with the Insta360 is the FOV is less than the other two. I want an action camera to record a variety of my activities (horseriding, biking, driving, hiking, scuba diving etc) and mainly want to create vertical format videos. For low light, I don't think I need an action camera I have a really capable phone that can do stuff low light and I won't need an action camera in such scenarios anyway.
What camera do you think I should get? Do you have experience with the dji or the insta360? I'm leaning towards the dji atm since the gopro has some reliability issues according to stuff I read online.
There seem to be a lot of paid reviews online so it's really difficult to make my mind up. Don't wanna get tbe wrong thing.

I came into a collection of old blank tapes recently and thought they'd be really cool for some art projects. I thought a suitable camera would be an easy enough find but there's rarely anything online bar ebay which has crazy shipping costs. I've tried a couple of second hand shops in Dublin but they only seem to have compact tape or miniDV cameras.
Does anyone know where I'd be able to find one? I'm not super picky, even if it isn't in the best condition I can fix it up and I'd be willing to spend up to 50 quid on one.

Hello everyone. My grandfather has owned a renegade since 2013 and I’ve always been obsessed. Im dying to get one as my first car. However, looking into it there are a ton of different models. I was hoping someone could explain the difference because I can’t find any videos or feeds online that help. All I know is that there are altitudes, latitudes, sports, trailhawks and limiteds (feel free to correct me).
But I live in a city and don’t plan to do any off roading. I do need one that’s good on snow/ice. I also would like one that has lane assistance that beeps when you go outside the lines as well as a rear view camera. Any suggestions?
Edit: I would also like to know what you all consider high mileage for a jeep, since I will be buying used. I was advised less than 100k
Thanks in advance!

This seems to be coming up a lot lately, and I've been meaning to share my experience getting into FPV with an Avata for a while now.
TL;DR: If you're looking to get into FPV for real (as in, fly acro), don't get an Avata (either version). Learning involves crashing. Get a drone that can survive a lot of that.
Last September I got hyped up watching FPV videos, and after seeing Rotor Riot's First flight to Freestyle series I decided to get an Avata. Money was not a particular issue - I hate buying stuff I won't use, but don't mind paying extra for top quality for stuff I do. Avata seemed to make sense - I could start flying straight away with the super easy to learn motion controller, and gradually swap to the real controller, and ultimately learn acro. And in case anything was going wrong, there was the Pause button to get me out of any sticky situation. Things were looking promising.
I fell in love with flying immediately. After a week of flying with the standard kit I ordered the game pad controller (DJI Controller 2). Flying with the motion controller was a ton of fun, but one thing it didn't do is free-falling. You could obviously fly toward the ground, but as the drone aims to maintain the control of the speed, it won't let you just let go. I knew I needed to feel the rush of diving down a tree or a tower, I've seen others do so many times on youtube. Didn't really care for tricks at this point, but still, as soon as I got my hands on a proper controller, I just had to learn acro.
First acro flight, about 2 weeks and 50 sim-hours later, was insanely stressful. I stayed high up in the air, didn't dare to flip or rollover or anything, but was surprised that overall, I was able to control the drone. Surprisingly, the Pause button didn't come handy, not even once. I suppose Normal mode did come useful for a soft landing. Anyway, pack after pack I was getting more and more confident. With more confidence came more risky stuff: flying low to the ground, tiny split-S'es, and short dives. I was having an absolute blast, but inevitably, with risky stuff came first crashes.
Not instantly-wreck-your-quad kind, no. Just flying low enough to catch some grass. The Pause button was of no use - there was no way I could react quickly enough. If I could I'd just raise the throttle in time. Anyway, it wasn't even the crash that was so scary - it was how the drone tried to recover. The Avata has this thing where it detects there was a crash, and switches back to Normal mode, into a position hold. I'm no expert, don't know how this works exactly, but let me tell you, the instruments just got hit hard and aren't ready to fly position hold. What happens actually, is the drone flies away without any control for the most scary 30s of your life, before finally getting it back together. After a few times of this I knew already I'd much rather the drone drop dead, than try to pull through.
A week of flying acro, and my Avata was already looking somewhat beat up. I had my first major crash after powerloop attempt. It was at this point when I realised the truth: Crashes are inevitable. Failing is a necessary part of learning. The Pause button is not a viable solution. Dropping to the ground after crash is the safest thing to do. All I need is a drone that can survive it.
I ordered a Mark 5 (O3) the very same day. I only had my Avata for a month at this point, but I knew I'm going to wreck it before I learn to fly with it. Now, looking back, Mark 5 is an overkill for a starter drone, but the amount of progress I've made, being able to just try things, fail, change props, try again, is just not comparable. Being able to not hold back is essential. I'm not flying around concrete much, mainly crashing into the ground, sometimes trees. Other than going through a significant number of props, I only ever needed to replace a camera (before I discovered protectors/ND filters) and batteries (Mark 5 has a design flaw making battery punctures too common).
I rarely fly my Avata anymore. I replaced the prop guards to get it back in shape, but it since decided to set itself on fire. Even though DJI replaced it, I just don't trust it anymore. As weird as it sounds, the only use-case for it I can see right now is long-range, where poor handling isn't such a big issue, thrust-to-weight doesn't matter, but the long battery life is a must. At least until I get a 7 inch.
I also sometimes use the Avata to show friends and family what it feels like to fly FPV. The motion controller really is great in that regard. If you're having a blast just flying around with it and wouldn't dare (or care) to try acro, then more power to you. But if you're considering getting your first FPV done, you may be disappointed if you, like me, expected the Avata to carry you all the way into acro.
Bonus: I hoped that at least I'd be able to keep using the DJI Controller 2 with my Mark 5, but I kept getting the dreaded RXLOSS, so eventually had to switch to ELRS. Goggles 2 are great still! If I started today with Avata 2, I'd be stuck with Goggles 3 and no easy way into O3 for the foreseeable future.

TL;DR: Is it worth getting a newer Lomo'instant Square, while already having the Kickstarter edition?
Hello, I already have a Lomo'instant Square Kickstarter edition but I don't use it very much due to various reasons, mostly because of the erratic exposure system even with new batteries (the Automat Glass is much more reliable exposure-wise, it has a sort of lens over the sensor which is more "focused" on the scene, similar to the LC-A, and doesn't underexpose with low batteries) and because it doesn't really feel trustworthy in terms of precision and build quality (I noticed that f/22 aperture isn't always centered on the lens, although the pictures don't seem to be influenced by this; the lens cover is flimsy, etc.). Moreover I don't feel comfortable taking pictures when people look at me and the Kickstarter edition sure doesn't help with its flashy and "unprofessional" appearance. I know they're just curious, but nevertheless I feel out of place when they glance at me.
So, I was thinking about buying the black version, but I'd like to know if lomography somehow improved the camera over the years or if it camera remained exactly the same and I'd better waste my money on Instax mini film for my Automat Glass and my Lomo'instant.
Do you have any experience to share? I'd love to dig the square format more, and the Lomo'instant Square is the only somewhat advanced camera at an affordable price.

Hi NewTubers 👋
For my next video I want to interview people outdoor, on the street.
I just don’t know which mic to use to get a better sound quality.
I currently own the Rode Wireless GO II pack (one receiver and two transmitters, but could buy the Interview go adaptator), and a on-camera Rode VideoMic (the regular one, not the go).
Which one of these would you recommend using to get a better sound quality?

Good Day
I am looking to buy Rode Wireless Pro. I have questions:

1. Does the Rode Wireless Pro come with a a cable to connect to the iPhone 15?
   
2. Can I use this microphone to shoot video through the camera app on my iPhone? That is, to have synchronized video and sound.
   
3. If I buy a microphone from a store that is not your dealer, will the warranty cover this microphone? There are no official Rode dealers in my city. Lviv, Ukraine.I plan to buy the microphone in this store https://mta.ua/
   

I will be very grateful for your reply
