The largest seller of camera equipment in the US is eBay - and you don't have a clue

I have both - and I find I like photographing more (much more) than scanning

When I studied with Ansel Adams he said “The image captured by your camera is only the starting point for creating the image that is in your mind” - I wonder if you are even aware that going to JPEG is a huge amount of post processing - the simple truth is cameras and humans don’t see things the same way - an image “as the camera saw it”, to a human is quite unsatisfactory - there is nothing special about an unprocessed image (maybe you don’t know how)

I have a large CAD drawing but my scanner is only 8.5x14". So I would scan sections of the drawing separately. How would I best stitch them in PS? It appears that the agorithm in PS is good for when you pivot the camera on the tripod but not so much when stitching the sections like I do with the scan.


Why not photograph it - doing copies I tend to like photo images rather than scans

Hi all, I am retired but have always been an amateur photographer. Took a lot of pictures for my own enjoyment . Now that I am retired, I plan to go back to my country and become a photographer for weddings which is a good business.

Could someone tell me what kind of camera, lenses, flash and battery charger I should buy to do weddings? Iam not talking high end equipment but good enough to take good and sharp pics.Right now I only have point and shoot cameras with no interchangeable lenses.

Any help will be appreciated.

I personally have found that a Nikon with an 8-16 and the 18-300 will handle just about anything - add the SB 5000 - and, of course a tripod (all you have to photograph is your interaction - and interacting with a camera shoved up in your face is impossible)

Depending on your definition of reasonable - with Gigapixel you will probably be ok at a normal viewing distance - running it through Topaz AI wouldn't hurt

It is so very obvious that the people who design the product don't use it

I have never checked a camera when it didn’t get stolen - do carry on

The EOS R5 changed how we think about mirrorless cameras, how we think about photography, how we think about life. The others, not so much.

But honestly, what are you asking? Canon has delivered mirrorless technology that leverages their change to EOS technology in October 1987, an all-electronic solution that continues to deliver benefits to Canon owners in October 2023. Contrast that to Nikon, a company that dithered on electronics and the basics of Auto Focus, where long-time owners find their long-time lenses are not fully-upward compatible with mirrorless cameras.

But honestly, what are you asking? Mirrorless technology is superior, especially the newest mirrorless lens designs, from every one of all the various market competitors. Some are clearly better at automated tracking of moving subjects, but this is a niche need for certain working pros. The rest of us couldn't / wouldn't know the difference.

But honestly, what are you asking? Did any of your current digital cameras turn to dust recently, or similarly stop delivering already superior images? Did your money start burning a hole in your wallet?

The single biggest difference: you mount a lens and turn right (clockwise) when working with Canon, clearly the right way to mount a lens. Everything else is just a difference mix of technology options. Do you want IBIS? How many megapixels? Full-frame vs cropped? What card format? One or two cards? etc, etc.

Way back when I studied with Ansel Adams he said "A camera is a box with a hole in it" - they both take very good pictures - the most important factor being the finger pushing the button (or, hopefully, the remote release)

RAW is a capture format JPEG is a printing format - you very likely can do a better job of image preparation than JPEG
