Mirrorless ILC Photography and Gear Thread

Nice! It's a classic ha bust out and carry it around again!

 

I love it's size and image quality but high iso sucks. Really thinking about Fuji for a small everyday camera. Thinking about selling my Canon DSLR and lenses and going full Fuji.

 

I am pretty sold on them. The files are just amazing, especially in low light. And their constant updates and fixes to their products paired with listening directly to photographers requests has me sold on the customer service aspect as well.

And those primes . . . so sharp ha

 

I was thinking of selling my gf3 for the fuji x10, that would be an awesome upgrade for me.

 

Stop making me want to spend more money!!!

 

I had the epl1 it was probably the best camera I've owned.

And that is what I quit going on the canon forum. I kept finding more stuff I wanted.

I am going to get a soft box and a slave flash but have no hot shoe so I've got to figure out how to set it as a manual flash off camera

 

You can set it off with your cameras little pop up flash if it has one. Just put it to lowest power or deflect it toward the speedlight with a card or something. Or a sync cord of other sorts if your camera has a port for it.

 

Here you go, man.

Not the best photo but I snapped it between my workout and homework haha

 

Nice set up man, I like that, Yeah I found a yonguno yn-560 II for 60 and a slave trigger which the pop pre flash will trigger and the whole set up is 70. Then the soft box is 30.

 

Nice. Those Yongnuo flashes are pretty legit for how inexpensive they are. I've heard quality control isn't amazing and some crap out from time to time but the fact that you can buy four for less than a Namebrand TTL flash says something haha


What box are you getting?

 

Not sure yet I found a good sized DIY one that cost 20 to make or get a simular one to yours for 35. I've already got manfroto stands. Going to buy a roof rack for my 2nd gen then see how much I have left

I need to get out more.

I carry my camera everywhere but I'm just so busy with school and work. I'm not making any progress on my personal projects I started ha

 

Chaz just looking at your first post in this thread - WOW man excellent work.

 

Hey, thanks so much, man! haha I'm not going to lie, I had to go back and see what photos I put in the first post ha I couldn't remember.

 

Found out I like photographing fly fishing just as much as partaking in it. Here is just one of the shots I grabbed. I felt a little weird running around and taking pics from a distance. I got some looks but no one said anything...I have been in many photos and always hope I will see myself in a magazine one day . I just figured they thought the same.

Nice! It's always more fun to document things you love to do. You know the ins and outs and it has meaning. That's why I actually kind of dread when my school hires me to shoot events haha I don't care at all about the stupid activities at hand haha

 

It's easy to snap pics anytime when the EPL1 is so small. I think I'm just gonna try and keep it on me for any occasions.

 

Nice truck . I keep mine in the truck all the time. I should carry it around campus but I normally forget I even have it.

 

thanks! it is much easer to keep the epl1 around then my 60d and bag of lenses.
