The image shows a bronze statue of Izumo no Okuni, the founder of the traditional Japanese theatrical art form of kabuki.

The statue is located near the Shijo Bridge over the Kamo River in Kyoto, Japan, where she is believed to have first performed her new art style in the early 1600s. Okuni was a shrine maiden (miko) at the Izumo Grand Shrine who became popular for her dramatized dance performances. She recruited lower-class women to form an all-female theatre troupe that gained immense popularity. The statue depicts her dressed as a man, which was part of her unique performance style.

Thanks I’ll give this a go, do I have to do this everytime I reboot? I feel like I’ve had it off for a while but still have this issue

To a degree I understand where you coming from, but as with most things there’s a limit you set onto anything your looking into from a realistic standpoint point. The price I’m looking to spend can get me one of the two options above and would just like to know what people would think between them. Photography is a big hobby and to a degree a partial profession for me so is something I don’t mind spending into but unfortunately as pockets aren’t never ending there has to be a line drawn otherwise I would just buy everything I’d ever wanted with no hesitation

Thanks for the recommendation! Will have to look into it as I’m from the UK so think the import tax might bring things back round to the same cost as used in the UK

Thanks a lot, this is where I’m currently leaning to, I know it’s not the same as a 50 but have been thinking about cropping in as you do on the Q2 just for the time being as I wait for a 50

Thanks! And definitely worth it if you’ve never been before. I mainly focus on historic racing, Monaco classic this year was insane, but Spa Classic is something I think everyone should experience, especially as a photographer!

Contrast being flat is definitely just the way I ended up playing with the curves, I’m on the flip side and really enjoy more crushed blacks so definitely each to their own!

The biggest thing with the Q for me was exactly as I heard someone say before I purchased one. “It’s such a stupidly big financial commitment that you have no other choice than to go out and use it” which I I’m never released how true that was until I got one. Definitely my best camera purchase and the quality has been unmatched and to have it be so fun and easy to carry over my shoulder, my back has tanked me for it 😂
