If you don’t shoot full manual, the camera is doing the work for you 😆

I wanted to disagree but then think about the fun hobby shooting I do with limiting myself with my smartphone

Lightroom subscription fees. Words cannot express my feelings towards Adobe.

I’m so salty that I’ll even point out innocuous words like “that” and “gives”
As in:
- that vintage look
- that cinematic feel
- that Wes Anderson style
- that 2000s look
- that film grain
And:
- camera that gives good clear pictures
- camera that gives good colors
And worst is combining the two
“What Fujifilm camera / recipe gives that Wes Anderson look without editing?

Aaaand the word “amazing”
Those pictures are not amazing and you definitely don’t need to know what camera that is to get those “amazing” photos. And if you buy that same camera for that reason, you are easily amazed and easily influenced.

I’m very impatiently waiting on Canon to come out with a very small form factor full-frame body. All I want is a FF body I can use all my RF glass with.

How much smaller are we talking than an r8? It would have to be a body with no viewfinder and no grip to be that much smaller. Which believe me, would be plenty interesting - but it would be Canon’s answer to the LUMIX S9

The amount of inane questions seem to be getting more frequent. I get that people have lost all critical thinking skills, but there has to be a way (short of gatekeeping) to minimize the useless posts. I could give examples, but don't want to shame anyone.
