Recently, a DPC student who wanted to give back blessed me with a bounty of Sony equipment, including some legendary Batis Sonnar lenses. This was one of the biggest miracles I’ve experienced, especially as my trusty Canon EOS R began showing its…Read More

I recently switched to the Sony A7R V, and this review by Dustin Abbott sums up why I am madly in love with this camera. It is by far the most mature and well-rounded stills camera I’ve had the opportunity to shoot with. (There are better cameras for video)

Thanks Danie. On the back of this article, I decided to get both the 35 and 50mm F2 fuji lenses and used them at an informal evening work function which I volunteered to take photos of.

I still have a lot to learn, but I enjoyed the experience and it open my eyes and mind to the benefits of sticking to a single focal length.

About Me

The more abstract forms of photography like impressionism and minimalism intrigue me. I prefer creating images that depict energy, mood, and silence. To illustrate my themes, I use mainly long exposures, selective focus, and focus blur. My philosophy is that the camera is just a paintbrush and that thought-provoking images stem from a developed mind.

Thanks for the information, Danie! As always, it’s very insightful and helpful. Now I understand why I couldn’t get the camera to shoot at 40fps or achieve the promised 4k resolution. I’ll start saving for the new card. 🙂
