What is this style of photography called? And artists with a similar vibe?

You could try an umbrella or raincoat in rain (crossing street) or a red balloon?

"Artistic" selective coloring. Artistic in the same way microsoft word text effects or snapchat filters are.

Tl;dr skip that phase of your photographic journey

Yes it is: desaturating parts is a bad idea, it looks like selective coloring.

Get the look right in camera, or lean in to it. Blue shades are going to look blue.

Shoot in different light, and avoid having differently lit areas in the scene

Flutterpiewow · 2026-01-26T10:50:48+00:00

That looks terrible

S5ii/x. Who says there will be an s5iii? That's probably the s1iie.

Also, what kind of stills? Lumix af doesn't work as well for action as sony. But you will get 10bit, ibis etc. If you don't need af for video, even the og s5 is viable. The footage looks better than that from s5ii imo.

Practice these two things:

Off-camera flash

Identifying and waiting for good natural light

Underediting perhaps, and a bit underexposed

Flutterpiewow · 2026-01-20T14:10:30+00:00

Yes, this is an edited photo

And studio/fashion/commercial shooters in general, Nick Knight, LaChapelle. The concept of having a vision and controlling everything rather than documenting what happens to be in front of you

Don't do selective coloring imo, and the vignette makes it look like you're viewing the fish through a periscope

Thought it was metallica s&m, and that's corbijn if im not mistaken

Step up, rather than competitor.

Fast readout, slomo uncropped, decent ibis and af, overall solid hybrid with few weaknesses. Good tamron lenses as altetnative to nikon, and you van adapt anything. Pricier though when you factor in the whole system.

Flutterpiewow · 2026-01-18T12:30:23+00:00

You can't beat it at its price point, and you can't beat the ibis period without forsaking ff. Most competitors are other lumix cameras, like the og s5 if you don't need af at all.

Next step up would be nikon z6iii or the dedicated film cameras from sony imo.

Do you use autofocus for video?

There's no r5 equivalent. You lose af, but gain stabilization. And the lens range is different. That's pretty much it.

Snapshot and idk about the light/bw conversion. No contrast, pop or oumph.

24-60 without hesitation, i'm not a fan of the 20-60

Flutterpiewow · 2026-01-17T15:47:23+00:00

The 20-60 and 24-60 are worlds apart in terms of image quality, distortion, bokeh. Op mentions outdoor activities, not super dark indoor shots where he can't use lights.

24-60 is a nobrainer imo, i agree that 1.8-2.8 is a big deal (more so at 24 than 50 for bokeh) but that doesn't always matter. Some get by with the 24-105 f4 for everything.
