Out Old - In New (Camera)
Out with the Sony Alpha NEX-5N and picked up a new Sony A6300. My lenses for the other Sony NEX work on the new one. Looking forward to using it the next few weeks. The Wife is using the Sony RX100 IV and will have the point and shoot category covered!
Wanted to have the Sony FE 70-300mm F4.5-5.6 for my upcoming trip but ran out of time to get it. We will likely be close enough that the 55-210mm 4.5-6.3 will work nicely. I know we have a lot of camera guys out there. Q: What are you shooting with these days?

Mainly Nikon
Sent by Taptalk from my phone which rather annoyingly and randomly rotates my pictures the wrong way around whenever it takes a fancy. I am sure the damn things got a mind of its own. :-(

I use mostly a Nikon D700 or a D3x for studio shooting.
Nikon CoolPix S9900 for macro when I travel and a Sony RX100 IV for point and shot.

I have a Canon EOS M, got it dirty cheap a few years back. I am debating whether getting a DSLR next, stay with the EOS M ecosystem (eventually Canon will get serious) or get a Sony Mirrorless and be done with it...
The EOS M is frustrating on many levels but image quality is good and with the 22mm pancake you have a very portable and capable system. |

Nice, Dave. The X100 really dwarfs the RX100!!
Before I got out of photography, I had a Leica M3 and MP. The new Leica digital M cameras are pretty sweet, but add a Leica lens or two and you're talking solid gold Rolex money! I'd rather have the watch. |

Although i have always lusted after a Leica, I feel that I am not an accomplished photographer and it would be wasted on me, having said that, the Fuji isn't in the "loose change" category, but I feel that I am keeping my head above water with it. My previous cameras have mostly been Canon, I took this with a G7 (I think) some years ago, it was pure luck, I just pushed and pulled some sliders in Lightroom and it just popped out.

I bought my wife the RX 100 V earlier this year for her birthday. It does all we need and is compact enough to take everywhere

I transitioned to all Sony and now use a Sony A7 for rangefinder lenses, A7ii for my Sony and old SLR lenses, and an original RX100 for a pocket camera.

Nice Sony. I wanted to go mirrorless, but found a great deal on a gently used D3300 bundle. Couldn't pass it up. And coming from a Canon 7D, I'm actually enjoying it way more.

Aloha Jocke, the family and I are doing well here in paradise. Can't believe so many years have passed since the get together in Vegas. That was a fun trip. Hope all is well your way and I always look forward to your photos. Aloha my friend. Tim

We've got a Sony RX-100. Not sure which version. Haven't used it in 2 years. iPhone for pics at this point.

I'm all in on the Fuji system. Love them. These are all seriously low res shots (3mb wireless transferred JPEGs from the camera to iPad)
GAS by j c, on Flickr The RAW files are flexible and the full size JPEGs are good enough for printing large. Decent tele options Untitled by j c, on Flickr Mirrorless autofocus is catching up to DSLRs. 600MPH on a very smoky grey day? No problem. Untitled by j c, on Flickr Great color straight from the camera and a nice compact system for travel. Good choice of prime and zoom glass - especially on the wide/normal end.

Wow, great stuff with the Fuji. Been seeing some amazing results from Sony and Fuji. Maybe my next upgrade will be one!

If you're good with APSC I can't recommend Fuji enough. Just loving them. The user interface with dials for shutter speed, ISO, exposure comp and aperture on the lenses really work with the EVF to give you a pleasurable shooting experience |
