    Newborn on the way, looking for a complementary camera

    Hopefully I can give you some advice based on my experience. The couple of years you can pretty much use any system, baby’s don’t move or do anything much so you won’t need blisteringly fast AF although eye AF is useful. You’ll find yourself shooting indoors more than you think so think about...

    Bargain Sony a7iii £1550 after cashback at Amazon

    I thought it was going to be an older model but your right, mk iii with kit lens. Absolute bargain, obviously sold out!

    Camera sales set to plunge, say Canon

    They might not want to admit failure but if your running at a loss then shareholders will have something to say about it.

    Camera sales set to plunge, say Canon

    Same as me, out of my group of friends I’m the only one who uses a “real camera”. They do own entry level cameras with kits lenses from years ago but they have been relegated to the back of the cupboard. Camera phone is good enough and far more convenient. At the moment the most manufacturers...

    Thinking about mirrorless

    TBF the A6000 AF is quite old, the new A6400 is supposed to be blazing fast as it has some of the A9 parts. I used the Samyang 35mm 1.4 on an A7iii, had no problems with eye AF using C-AF, not used the Sony 35mm 1.4 so can't compare it with that.

    Going back to a crop sensor

    Is it mirrorless you don’t like and just prefer DSLR? If so go for it, there are some good secondhand bargains around.

    Olympus OM-D E-M5, E-M1, E-M10 - Mk1, Mk2 & Mk3 Owners Thread

    I think Fuji have been quite clever with the pricing of the X-T3, it leaves them room to price the X-H2 around the £1700 mark without heading into the £2k territory. Olympus must believe they have something truly special if they going to price over £2k, if they do this forum will probably go...

    M4/3 is "doomed" unless ....

    My theory is 97% of people don’t care about dedicated cameras. They may have brought one and used it with a kit lens, but since then it’s been banished to the back of the wardrobe until a special occasion arrises. For them a camera phone is good enough and that’s all they will need. Camera...

    M4/3 is "doomed" unless ....

    I agree, computational photography is where it’s heading. Apple’s camera division has over 1000 people, Google probably has more. They also have vastly bigger pockets and software knowhow to do it. As to why camera companies don’t look to add it into their cameras? Most flagship phones have as...

    Another vote for MPB.com

    I’ve used them loads, when they first started up they were incredibly good, fast goods inspection and fast payment all done within a couple of days. Sold a couple of lenses a few months ago and after waiting a week I had to chase them for an update and again for payment. Shame as they are a...

    M4/3 is "doomed" unless ....

    Olympus has been suspiciously quiet this year. I think they are taking stock of the market and will respond, rumours are that they will have a new camera beginning of 2019. Many people complain that bodies are too big but it’s a balancing act between size and ergonomics, also the size and...

    The Fabulous Fuji X owners thread

    Thanks for the reply, I'll pop down to Wex and have a play. Might be boarding the x wagon again.

    The Fabulous Fuji X owners thread

    Chaps, quick question for any X-T3 owners. Has the AF speed been improved on the older 1.4 lenses like the 23mm and 56mm?
