    New Camera Forums for GetDPI - dpreview closing its doors

    Many of the DPR audience are quite reasonable to converse with, this site could benefit from some new voices and the spammers are easy to vet as KC_2020 points out. I think it an opportunity to revive this site. What surprises me is the total lack of even a no or yes from any mod or owner on my...

    New Camera Forums for GetDPI - dpreview closing its doors

    Really the existing Pentax forum just needs renaming to Ricoh / Pentax and the Ricoh GR thread of photos in Other Cameras could be moved.

    New Camera Forums for GetDPI - dpreview closing its doors

    Hi, With dpreview.com closing its doors I'd like to propose to GetDPI Forum owners to open Sigma and Ricoh (for the GR) forums. or Ricoh/Pentax Additionally there is already a fairly long GR images thread to move. A Sigma forum would see their cameras and lenses get representation and for a...

    Really ?

    I would have thought, if they offered it for sale, someone may step up. Additionally, I wonder if they looked to, prune how much they were doing, reduce costs there and hence prune staff, then come at it from the other direction by asking for a subscription to post in the forums and/or...

    New Fujifilm X100V annoyance

    I bought this for my X100v and the Fuji supplied lens cap stays on tight. https://nisifilters.com.au/product/nisi-uhd-uv-for-fujifilm-x100-x100s-x100t-x100v-black/ I often just leave the cap off ready for pickup, power shoot quick

    RIP Tim Page, Vietnam war photographer

    The rifle under his right arm looks to me to be a M1 Carbine, upside down. As we are all gear nut here someone must want to weigh in on the models of Leica and Nikon cameras and the lenses even. Tim (another one)

    Are there any wedding photographers in the UK that I can convince to have lunch with me?

    You should listen to this and message Neale and Kev, they are very approachable. Both guys are documentary style wedding photographers in the UK with many weddings under their belt. https://www.fujicast.co.uk/ This is my #1 podcast I listen to, all others stop when a new episode is out. Neale...

    Under Evaluation!

    The problem then is, all comments are subject to the moderators view of everything. I understand that its someone else's place but you can end up with filtered commentary. Free speech loses.

    Fun with the Ricoh GR III

    Is the ultimate travel kit a GR III and GR IIIx with the GW-4 and the GT-2 in a small bag. This would give you 21mm, 28mm, 40mm and 75mm native in two bodies and two adapted lenses. I guess it could be achieved other ways but this is versatile.

    Performance issues?

    I baby sit about a dozen servers. They need maintenance and sometimes also go down due to unforseen circumstances or failures or even bugs and things that should have worked didn't. As an example just recently there was a date bug with on premises MS exchange 2016 2019 servers that happened in...

    A question for the technologically minded

    I think noise varies with exposure. We see that an image is virtually noise free when exposed under good light. Take an indoor photo with and without flash. The flash shot is lower noise. The pre-exposure idea is interesting. You could test it.

    Tempted, very tempted... GRIIIx

    I will be buying one, my only dilemma is if I keep the X100V. Sure the X100V offers good WR and has the optical viewfinder with data that I love. But the compactness is compelling and the IQ from the GR IIIx has a certain pop that I have not seen for a while. Excellent lens at a valuable focal...

    Hi all, looking for an optically good Olympus Zuiko 40mm f2. PM me if you have something. Not the Olympus Pen F 40mm. I sold an item or two here. I am located in Australia. Thanks

    Getting the best B&W rendering from digital.

    I wonder if bayer sensors with larger pixels render BW more closely to film ? There is a thread on this site about Medium Format fat pixel backs, so the 22Mpixel Blad backs etc. They seemed to still command a good price. Cameras like the Sony A7s (I, II, III) and the Nikon DF at 12Mpixel might...

    Getting the best B&W rendering from digital.

    I have noticed this in BW portraits over the years, as you show here. Digital have a pastey flat look. It seems to me that IF a scanned film image can render close to desired then the digital input of the scanner is able to pick up something that the D800 etc sensor does not natively. So the...
