US Army soldiers, and judging by a few frames appears to be in France in the mid to late late 1950s. -
Can I have my cake and eat it too?
zane1664879013 replied to dave_dondero2's topic in Mirrorless Digital Cameras
For bike-bound adventuring, I would bring something like the Ricoh WG-5 and forget about fast autofocus and many of the other requirements you list. You can't condense your 5D system capabilities into a pocket travel package.- 15 replies

Help ! Lost Nikon D600 + Tamron Lenses

Where on the planet are you? -
<p>I don't have a book to recommend, but there are many tutorials on the web, including this site: <a href="/learn/sports/overview">http://www.photo.net/learn/sports/overview</a> and <a href="/learn/sports/tips-from-ny-film-academy">http://www.photo.net/learn/sports/tips-from-ny-film-academy</a>.</p> <p>I've done a little basketball shooting and generally get best results with a fast 50mm lens on an APS-C digital SLR. That field of view is about right for shooting from the baseline (but depends on what you want in the frame). Keep your shutter speeds up (1/500 or faster), mind your depth of field, and shoot lots of frames. Most gyms have dismal lighting for photography, so I had to get comfortable with a bit of noise from using higher ISO settings. White balance can also be an issue with the various lighting types, so set that at the start (or shoot raw and correct later).</p>

<p>From the OP's description, it seems clear the intent is commercial use of the image(s), not editorial use.</p> -

<p>Assuming you're in the USA - you need a signed release if the person is recognizable.</p> -

HELP: Unique issue regarding image rights, past employer
zane1664879013 replied to sam_g5's topic in Business of Photography
<p>Corporations are legal entities, so you need a lawyer that speaks their language. Your lawyer will also explain what your options are, and what it will cost you to pursue them. There's no other way.</p> -

Good sharp lens for Olympus M10 Mark II (~12-50mm range)
zane1664879013 replied to chris_bassett1's topic in Olympus
<p>If sharpness is a priority, avoid the 12-50 ED f/3.5-6.3 - soft & slow in my experience. It seems to exist for those wanting smooth, silent zoom for video.</p> -
Summitar 50mm f2 VS Summar 50mm f2
zane1664879013 replied to justin_ng1's topic in Leica and Rangefinders
<p>You need to state <em>your</em> priorities before anyone could answer such a vague question. Different priorities will point to different recommendations.</p> -
<p>You could try opening it in Inkscape, a free vector drawing tool (similar to Adobe Illustrator & CorelDraw):</p> <p><a href="https://inkscape.org/">https://inkscape.org/</a></p>

One image size for different sized prints?
zane1664879013 replied to steenie_d's topic in Business of Photography
<p>I was waiting for a more experienced voice to answer, but nobody stepped up. My take:</p> <p>If you're happy with Zenfolio's suggested cropping ("areas left out") for the print sizes different than your uploaded image, the remaining issue is whether there are enough pixels remaining to ensure good image quality. The number of pixels needed depends on viewing distance and the subject matter of the print, but a guideline would be 200 dpi minimum for typical images, and 300 or more dpi for finely detailed images or those intended to be viewed up close.</p> <p>If you're very particular about image quality and composition/cropping, you'll have to provide separate image files for each print size and aspect ratio. I realize that involves much more work.</p> -

<p>I'll go out on a limb and say yes. The ZX-L takes CR2 lithiums in the body, yes? Lithiums in the grip would seem to me to be no different.</p>

DSLR or Mirrorless Advice (which models)
zane1664879013 replied to tom_symp's topic in Beginner Questions
<p>You should spend some time in a camera store and try a wide range of designs to find out what feels best in <em>your</em> hand. I shoot m4/3 and Pentax dslr mostly. I have large hands so I am most comfortable with a dslr body--an important consideration if you're going to spend hours shooting. I also happen to think Pentax dslrs are the best bang-for-buck on the market, with nice bright viewfinders and weather-sealing even on budget models. The K-50 was just discontinued and you could pick up that fine camera with one or two kit lenses within your price range. Pentax also opens the door to the decades of K-mount lenses floating around out there. I picked up a cheap m4/3 body in order to play with the many 35mm rangefinder lenses I have, and that's been a lot of fun. The m4/3 sensor is only about half as large as APS-C, but the image quality is pretty close (and indistinguishable in good light).</p> -

<p>On the body, next to the lens, is a switch marked AF - MF. Is it set to AF?</p>
