Photog makes more money with m4/3rds camera than his FF

wrote: Could be a one-off. But it stands to reason that if you are the kind of photographer who waits for moments to shoot and everything isn't planned, a compact easy-to-carry but reasonably high-performance camera is a better choice than a large system camera you won't carry as much. https://petapixel.com/2017/03/24/bat...ll-frame-dslr/ There is a lot of truth in that article. -- Regards, Eric Stevens |

If people like his photos, then for the zillionth time, what difference does it make what camera he used? Isn't it still the case that the best camera in the world is the one you have with you when opportunity knocks? -- I agree with almost everything that you have said and almost everything that you will say in your entire life. usenet *at* davidillig dawt cawm |

I speak from the heart having recently returned from carrying a Nikon D750 with 70~200 f/2.8 lens for several hours round a botanical garden and park. -- Regards, Eric Stevens |

Eric Stevens: And you are much more likely to have with you the camera you can easily carry. I speak from the heart having recently returned from carrying a Nikon D750 with 70~200 f/2.8 lens for several hours round a botanical garden and park. I have a Canon 5D Mk IV with battery grip. Pretty heavy with Canon's 70-200 Ÿ2.8. That, to me, is a studio lens, used on a tripod in or near my home. If I had to take that or another heavy lens to a botanical garden I would probably hire a bearer to carry it. https://www.flickr.com/photos/primeval/14963200157 and https://www.flickr.com/photos/primeval/14965404329 In the field I usually use a Canon 6D. Also full-frame, but lighter and less loaded with features than the 5D https://www.flickr.com/photos/primeval/13931635644. -- I agree with almost everything that you have said and almost everything that you will say in your entire life. usenet *at* davidillig dawt cawm |

A Canon Ixus isn't going to do you much good selling to a sports magazine if that's the only camera you brought to a football game.

And that 70-200 f/2.8 and a 50 f/1.4 in your pocket, you're going to be able to shoot images in that garden a m4/3 shooter could only dream of. -- Sandman |

Bigger is better but the best camera is the one that you got with you. I can bring the M (EOS!) in my everyday messenger without even thinking of it until I need it.

With three lenses: 12/2.0, 22/2.0 and 50/1.8! See he http://www.stevehuffphoto.com/wp-con...T100-400-7.jpg Both are 400mm lenses, but the Panasonic one has more reach.
