    That's a big zoom. I have one for my Nikon SLR like that. It's a 28-300 on a crop sensor. It has some big reach.

      Yeah, it's definitely a "reach out and touch someone" lens - but a 28-300 on a crop sensor would be... [carry the 2]... 42-450 - THAT'S some reach!
      I obviously find it fascinating to compare the 2 cameras, apples vs oranges and all that... LOL.
      Thanks for watching!

      @@RoadReality - Ya. You can see the difference. Besides the Canon color, you can see the sharpness in the focal drop-off Thay the crop sensors just don't get.

      @@DeweyRides Yeah, it's a real shame... I think you have to buy primes for crop sensors in order to get real nice bokeh. The Canon... just does it.
      I should get a medium format camera next :D Hasselblad, are you listening? ;)

      AI came up with THIS response: "Yeah, it's kind of a gamble - but the real reward is getting out there and having a good time on the bike! :D"
      But mine is THIS: You're welcome, and congrats on the watch hours! Getting the revenue? That's a whole different ball of wax! Good luck :D

    Wait, is that what fences are for? I have been using them wrong my whole life. Always figured they are public sporting goods. / 17:40 I wonder if you shot in raw mode, could you bring back the bike details more, increase the brightness of the bike a bit, photoshop the cars out. That could be a christmas card right there.

    • @RoadReality
      @RoadReality  3 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      Yeah, to stop people or handle stolen goods... either way :D
      Raw would be easier if I had Photoshop... but I don't, so I don't. But, if I did, and I did, then I COULD do the things you're talking about. I'm just not there yet.

      @@RoadReality I don't know, if working on raw files is that much work, if you're really looking for that good picture. Adjust the highlights, the shadows, maybe just a tiny bit of contrast and saturation. If you do anything more, the picture won't look natural anyway. Also most cameras do the raw+jpg shooting too. So you can still stick to the cameras result for majority of pictures and touch the ones you really want.

    Be careful John. All the dramatic music and clicky sounds, somebody might think your a professional. Not me of course, but somebody might.
