14 pro vs 15 pro a big difference?
Sent from my iPhone using TGR Forums
I didn’t notice a huge difference. The jump from 13 to 14 was much biggerQuote:

I think mixed up. My 13 pro has optical zoom, cinematic mode. I didn’t think there were big changes to the 14 physically, hence my confusion
Ah. Makes sense. Yeah, the optical zoom is great
Still not finding many people who have hands on experience comparing the 13pro, 14pro, and 15pro.
Loads of people went from an old phone to one of those three and noticed big differences, which is to be expected. But I'm trying to figure out if it's worth the extra coin to go with the 15pro vs one of those other two. I suffer with a lot of Decision Paralysis.
I have a 14pro, had a 13pro.
The differences are nice and noticeable, buy the newest version you can afford and you will be stoked.

I need to buy a mirrorless camera for the coming ski season. I have an extensive quiver of DSLRs, but I know nothing about mirrorless. What I need are: 1) compact(ish); 2)weather sealed to a degree; 3)wide angle - mid zoom (17-55ish).
Any suggestions that were not previously mentioned?
What platform are the dSLRs on? Almost any of them will have a small, capable mirrorless camera. Might as well stay in the ecosystem you already have.Quote:

Seems super compact, and like something I would actually use more so than lugging a smaller body with big lens around.
I have an X100V that is my main daily shooter. It’s really wide though so if you want anything over 35mm equivalent you are out of luck.Quote:

I may just need to ski around with my old Canon G11 and see what focal length I use the most.
Does any one have suggestions for my what kind camera should i buy im new in this field.
I posted up thread about a desire to update my micro 4/3 body. I ended up doing that last fall with a E-M5 mk iii and I'm pretty stoked on it.Quote:

The compact size is great and felt OK doing moderate skiing (like repositioning between shots) with the camera outside on a Peak Design capture clip--but the body is ergonomic enough that you could still manage the key controls with a glove liner on. 5-axis in-body stabilization on the nicer OM system cameras is really good.
I was shooting with the F4 12-100 Pro lens (which is a 24-200 full frame 35mm equivalent) and I thought it worked pretty well in that use case. Snow is bright so F4 was enough for moderate weather and I'm not looking for narrow DOF so it kept the size down and avoided lens changes. That lens has sync-IS (the lens IS works in cahoots with the body IS) which is real nice on the long end and the whole system is weather sealed.
Yeah, its a bit big compared to my other lenses, but it is still much smaller than a Canon 70-200 and has far more range on the wide end.
The olympus pro glass is really good and relatively affordable (especially used). If I wasn't looking for the long end and extra stabilization, the 12-40 f2.8 pro (24-80 equiv) is a phenomenal lens with decent reach. There's a mk2 version that has improved weather sealing and a redesigned hood, but the mk1 is optically equivalent. Sometimes you can get a good copy of the mk1 for close to $300 on ebay which is insane for how good of a lens it is.
If you really want that extra width, they make an f4 8-25 pro (16-50 equiv).
You've also got access to the panasonic/leica m4/3 lenses. There's a beastly leica 10-25 (20-50 equiv) F1.7 zoom that is weather sealed . It is big and expensive by m4/3 standards, but still in a manageable size compared to what people carry on a sony or canon body.
Ok. Help. My daughter has wanted a real camera for years and now that she’s older it seems time.
I’m thinking a mirrorless. Good combo of smaller size and interchangeable lenses etc.
Looking to find something used in the $400 range though that might have to go up a bit.
What would you recommend? I found a used Sony alpha 6000 locally with a lens for $400, and an Olympus OM-D iv with three lenses for 600.
What should I be looking at? Any ideas or leads on something good? Found a Fuji X-T10 body too but I assume the lenses will be really pricey.
Is there already a thread for cameras that are also good for video? If not, sub $1k recommendations? A Toyota equivalent?
Hey I have a couple pretty serious (if albeit slightly older) cameras that are in great shape. I would need to do some serious garage searching for them, would you be interested at all if I could find them? For $free:30Quote:

No, but not the worst thing to have.Quote:

$400 is a bit high, based on ebay Sales, for the Sony. That Sony is a good Camera, but it is 10yrs old : https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_fro...&LH_Complete=1
Extremely helpful. Thanks.Quote:

One thing to think about is whether your daughter wants to get into video, wants to maybe shoot film down the road, etc. If she's going to shoot video, get into the sony system and she can start building there. If she's maybe going to want to shoot analog, finding a Nikon or Canon could help the lenses work on older film cameras. If this is just going to be a one off thing, then it doesn't matter, but if you think she's going to want to take it somewhere then starting in the right place would be nice.Quote:

surprised the ricoh griii hasn't been more recommended for portability
the fuji x100v and sony rx100 are also good options but the x100v is quite hard to find
Tgapp set my daughter up with a Sony RX1 which was beyond cool of him. She is still figuring it out. But so far it’s a fantastic camera for what she wants to do.
I think it will take her pretty far down the photography road.
post some of her pics!!Quote:
