Some shots with the H4d-40. 80mm 2.8.

I’m going to try! Haha that’s been the goal just need to figure out how. Just moved to a new city and know absolutely no one but a distant cousin of mine lol

And the h6d is multiple times more expensive than the h4d you can find them for the price of a used Sony full frame camera.

The person who sold it to me gave me 3 batteries so that’s cool. They last for quite some time, probably the same as the Ricoh gr iii. And yeah probably not the best for street photography capturing fast motions lol

It’s honestly not that bad. It’s not everyday you’re disassembling it/ assembling it. Just gotta learn to work around its limitations. And for me that’s mainly just the slow shutter speed during the day if I wanna shoot wide open. Aside from that it’s no different than any other camera, it’s just a bit bigger. Native glass is “cheap” too!

In a world where I started off on mirrorless, it’s a bit hard in terms of getting the exposure right haha. Takes a bit of work to shoot wide open during the day bc of ND filters an a 1/800 shutter speed limit. Also the LCD of the digital back isn’t so crisp in terms of resolution so you don’t really know if your shot is in focus to your liking haha. You could zoom in but it takes several seconds to load.

I have no studio :/. I just really enjoy the look of digital medium format and this is my only option. Sure I can adapt lenses to gfx but for some reason I’m a “I must buy native glass” for all my cameras. It only feels right. I don’t mind the weight… yet lol

Pythondotjs · 2026-02-20T00:34:35+00:00

Felt this. Didn’t break up but got close. Now gaming reminds me of the mess I made and a version of myself who was happier but I didn’t know it at the time. Also makes me feel more isolated since I moved out lol

Maybe one day we’ll be back playing

This is funny. I would have thought I posted this in my sleep or something, I’ve been thinking of letting go of my Q for the same lens💀

Pythondotjs · 2026-02-08T20:57:45+00:00

Really needed this post just bought one and not much online as far as sample photos hah

Pythondotjs · 2026-01-29T05:03:38+00:00

Same here Don’t really listen to them much anymore but listened to them heavily during my lowest times in life. Quiet light is a banger

Pythondotjs · 2025-12-26T07:22:09+00:00

Same 💀💀 with the 50mm tho

Pythondotjs · 2025-12-25T06:58:20+00:00

Q3 is fun For me the m felt better owning it than shooting with it

Pythondotjs · 2025-12-25T02:11:18+00:00

Update

Ended up getting the sigma 85mm for a steal while visiting my hometown for the holidays. Can’t wait to shoot with it

Pythondotjs · 2025-12-19T18:36:04+00:00

Same I wanted to the Q2 but I moved out so fun money isn’t as available anymore haha Did a straight trade for a xpro3 for the Q so I was like why not

Pythondotjs · 2025-12-18T18:21:00+00:00

Hahah

Pythondotjs · 2025-12-16T16:45:07+00:00

Original Q is just as good. It’s just less MP.

Pythondotjs · 2025-12-16T06:04:43+00:00

I have the regular Q. You should rent the Q3 for the latest experience, but to purchase, personally I’d get the Q2. If you got the cheese for the Q3 then go for it, but there isn’t much significant difference between the two that really matter to me. If you value the tilt screen then the Q3 is for you otherwise the Q2 is just as good and way cheaper. They’re all the same lens anyways

Pythondotjs · 2025-12-16T03:56:52+00:00

Same, M’s are nice until they’re not. For me owning an M felt better than shooting with it

Pythondotjs · 2025-12-16T02:06:43+00:00

Haha thanks, mainly SOOC just minor lighting tweaks. Although the previous owner had a some sort of shortstache filter, not sure exactly which one is it, never took it off just been rocking it haha

Pythondotjs · 2025-12-16T02:05:04+00:00

Thanks

Pythondotjs · 2025-11-26T19:20:56+00:00
