I have been using rangefinders (Leica) for ever. I now am nearsighted with an astigmatism, and also wear polarized, progressive lenses. Focusing is getting harder for me. I love the rendering, size and ease of Leica. I also own 5 lenses. I want to stay within the same weight, footprint as Leica. I am a manual plug and play guy, I don't read manuals or scroll thru 100 options I will never use.
What suggestions do you have for me. BTW I shot with a Nikon D850 , amazing quality, but the weight and size is way too much. Advise please and thanks in advance.

My 8 year old daughter is interested in photography (guess I am rubbing it off on everyone around me!). She has a good eye and I am guiding her on composition and lighting. She has been using an old iPhone lying around, but I want to get her a point and shoot camera for an upcoming vacation. My older dslrs would be too heavy and cumbersome for her (and I know me or my husband will end up carrying it in addition to mine!)
Can anyone suggest a starter camera, probably in the $90-125 range? Thanks in advance!!

What sources do you use for photo books? For my family's important milestones (birthdays and vacations or mini-trips), I download images into Photos on my Mac and use that program strictly to order Apple Photobooks. I always process in LR first and then just use Photos as the source to get to the Photo Books ordering software. I really like this program because of the flexibility in design for the book layout and pages options. They come packed inside a white pressboard sleeve overwrapped in a nice clear plastic envelope, securely packaged in cardboard delivered by FedEx. Apple seemingly goes out of the way to make this a very nice presentation. Most of the books cost me around $30 for 24 pages on average. I'm just wondering what the other options are and what you generally use and why. Thanks for your help.

I'll be spending time in Alaska's Kenai Peninsula this summer photographing brown bears during the salmon run. I plan to take to take two camera bodies with lenses and CPLs already attached (Fuji X-T2 w/18-135 & Canon 80D w/Sigma 150-600). The environmental conditions will not be conducive to changing lenses or putting a bag or backpack down to swap cameras or access other gear since it's very wet in most areas. So, I'm looking for a bag or backpack that will give me the ability to store and swap the two cameras without setting it down while hiking and shooting. Suggestions?

Hope someone can explain what happened when I connected a new external hard drive to my iMac to use as time machine.
I connected a WD 8 TB to use for time machine, I had to reformat it to use on my iMac. It took over a week for it to back up ( this included 2 other externals which hold my photos) only to get a message that there was not enough space. I then connected a G-tech 12 tb to do the back up including the same 2 externals. This back up indicates on 5tb needs to be backed up. So my question is why did the 8tb indicate not enough space when clearly there was.

Very Confused
