Would you please do a review of Canon's DPP4? It would be greatly appreciated!!

So what is the guy filming you shooting with?

I am sorry i did not understand you how does this lens work with nikon z mirrorrless bodies with the adapter...can we use autofocus and manual focus or there are limitations could you please clarify.

Shift with the mask tool is crazy i never knew that

Does the standard lens got a good zoom,i mean i dont wanna pay for another lens. Maybe a bridge camera will be better ,Canon powershot sx70 ,what do you think ? 😮

Great video Robert, that was a difficult one to shot, you got some cracking captures really enjoyed that. Did you go deaf for two or three days? 👍👌👏🐕

Hello Where did you just get that raw file from at the bottom of the page? That looked so easy compared to what I have had to do? Okay, I just watched more of your video and this is amazing!! Thank you for educating me about Camera Raw.

Strangely mostly drone images instead of photography

Great edit walkthrough. I would say you helped a lot of the followers on this one.

My favourite lens alongside my 85mm F1.8. BTW love the dog cam !.

If you have a decent graphics card that supports OpenCL turning it on in the processing settings will make operations quite a bit faster :)

Great vid thanks! Subbed.

Love what you did with dehaze and white in the mask around the sun. Something I’ve always struggled with.

Whilst "what you like v what you don't like" is a good point Robert , as you sort of eluded to, perform your edits to how you remember the scene. The dehaze, texture and clarity worked really well in emphasising the godrays as well as the brush tool (That's new to me how you did that so I've learnt something!) Agree that masks too are an excellent way to edit. Shame about the blank film and hope you manage to fix the camera! All the best mate.

The 24-70 does seem to have better colors and contrast.

Teleconverter work with dx body? Can u share the one u use?

Where did you get that ring light?

A great challenge Robert and you managed some good images with that set up ! Will you use the Z30 handheld or on a gimbal for footage? Schoolboy errors always the curse , if it's not firmware it's batteries or SD cards !! All the best and take care - see you on the 13th - no wait the 27th ;)

Hi, i did it and the light works but not the fotometer. How you see the exposure on your viewfinder? thank you and sorry for my english

I use a Z7 and Z30 which is used as a backup/ small carry around. Never been brave enough to use it for bird photography so well done for getting such great shots. I keep forgetting it hasn't got a viewfinder and end up missing the shot. Great little camera though. Out of respect I replaced stupid with brave 😊

Always dangerous territory buying a camera that does both video and stills. I have done this a couple of times now 😂. Sad news on the zv1 but the Nikon looks like it gives great results, I hope the video is as good as the stills. The buzzard shot was great considering this was released as a vlogging camera. (PS those swans were geese).

Before expressing your opinion, please familiarize yourself with all RT options. Rawthepee has more features than Lt. All configurations can be customized. For example, RT has 6 histograms and RGB, HSV and LaB measurements that can be separated, Lt cannot. RT has L*a*B* regulations.... etc and much more. I refer you to materials by Andy Astbury and others. These are not similar processing programs. LT is a loupe TR is a microscope.

Great stuff bro, always watch and support your content..as you know

Great morning and some pretty stunning images I'd say. I do find those screens a bit hard to see in the sunlight...but it could be these old eyes of mine too! lol Have yourself a fantastic week!!

Once again nice video Robert, that looks like a great lens and the camera performed to the best results it could. I am very pleased with Nikon Z6 and just testing the Z24-200mm Nikon lens which I think is great. 🐕👍

Thank you for posting the raw images along with the finished product. Most of the raw pics looked a bit soft and rather dull, not until some post-processing was applied that the pics became sharp and snappy. Was that perhaps the result of camera/lens/teleconverter combination? New tech makes wonders, but to think that a few decades ago while you had some latitude with negative film, you had basically none with slide film to get sharp, vivid pictures.

What difference Tokina atx-i 100mm F2.8 FF Macro vs Tokina AT-X Pro 100mm f2.8 Macro?

Its so beautiful, theres some really breathtaking landscapes here!

I remember when this fake stuff was an outrage. Poor Milly Vanilly dead for nothing

Additional notes for users/buyers of D500 bodies: If or when you find and purchase a D500 body, check the firmware. If it is too old, it will need to be upgraded in multiple steps, not just one. Be sure you do, though, since the camera was designed to use XQD cards from the factory, but with the most recent firmware, you can now use CF Express Type B cards, which are faster and cheaper! Two of the bodies that I now own had firmware that was old enough (1.00 and 1.01) that I had to find archived copies of older firmware and then upgrade to 1.12 before they would go further. All of them now have 1.31 and can use both XQD and CF cards. Two of my CF cards are 512 GB and work flawlessly. As mentioned in this video, use back-button focus. Also, use the body MF/AF switch to engage or disengage auto-focus, set the CH speed to 10, and set the artificial limit for maximum number of continuous shutter releases to 200 (the max allowed). If you run across any YT videos who attempt to demean the value of the D500, don't listen to them. They're either ill-informed or completely uninformed. These are darlings!

What tripod is that? Seems pretty compact and light weight.

Is this camera good for landscape and architecture photography

Great stuff Robert. We are sailing to Stavanger in July and I was hoping to get some street art photos myself. How long roughly did it take you to walk around and get these shots. We might be short on time before the ship leaves so we want to try to cram as much in as possible.

Wish Nikon would add Live Composite mode to their Z cameras! Are you listening Nikon?

Call me old fashioned but when ya miss the decisive moment you miss it. That's part of the life of a street photographer. To then try to use AI to recreate it is no longer the art of photography. Not saying people shouldn't do it, it's just not how I want to roll. I will admit the new AI removed tool in ACR is amazing. I can get the same effect in various ways in Photoshop but this just makes the process easier. That seems different from putting things into an image with AI that weren't in the capture.

Which zoo were you visiting?

Thinking about getting one. Might have found a cheap one

I honestly dont think its fair to say that the full frame equivalent to the 17-55 is the 24-70 2.8. Since 17-55 f2.8, is equivalent to 26-84 f4.3. The 24-85 f3.5-4.5 is way closer. Its build cheaper but it results in the same image and is significantly lighter and cheaper. So its not fair to say at all that apsc lenses are lighter or cheaper in general. The sigma 18-35 f1.8 is about equivalent to a 24-70 f2.8. And it costs the same as a 24-70 f2.8.

Good video, Robert. I have two perspectives. For me, as a photographer, it takes away the joy of nailing a great image in camera. That said, how many folk out there will use this feature without declaring it. From a work related standpoint, as a designer, this is gold as we often have to work with images that aren't exactly what we are looking for.

Tried the generative AI after watching your original video Robert and created an interesting composite based on an image taken at Bamburgh Beach - up another level here and whatever anyone's thoughts on AI it's as you say, here to stay! Would I use it ? Well as demonstrated it's less of a cheat but cheating nonetheless but there may well be occasions it has a place and if disclosed you are not deceiving anyone - all the best and take care mate.

It crazy what can be done with AI. Wonder what our younger selves would of thought if we could go back in time and say what photoshop has become.

A very interesting take on generative AI. Personally, I feel photography falls into two categories, recording what you see and creating art. I am in the first category so therefore not a big fan of AI. However what you’ve done here is recorded what you saw but not when you hit the shutter. For me this is an acceptable use of generative fill. Photography is so subjective. Thanks for a great video.

Great photos, looks like a lot of fun.

please make the testing video soon, i have the minolta Hi-matic E from my father and i want to learn how to use it properly, i think its quite similar to yours also i have a question, do you think that using two 1.4v. batteries will work the same (i think they are even smaller batteries)

Some pretty cool stuff!! Will be very interesting to see where it all leads to in a few years as AI capabilities seem to be growing exponentially.

Great video Robert, as always very informative this looks like a good tool if you’re stuck with the image. 🐕👍

tengo la Nikon D3200 que venia con los lentes 18-55 5.6 y 55-200 5.6, hace poco me compre el 35mm estoy esperando que me lleguen, todo los he comprado de segunda mano, me gustaría tener el 70-300, esta en mis planes comprarlo próximamente, tambien espero comprarme una Nikon nueva de paquete algún día 🤩. saludos desde venezuela

I have been using a D500 + Sigma 150-600 Contemporary combination for the last 3 years. Given the DX crop factor they make a fantastic pairing for wildlife photography. They have helped me to capture many shots that I could not have easily achieved otherwise

just a question , can you combine b&w and colour ?

Hi Bro, nice video! i want ask for the Nikkor 18-140mm G ED VR? What do you think?
