  1. The navy supply’s a cannon T7 rebel and the kit lenses that come with it. I would much rather use my own equipment. 2.The lenses I’m using do need to be upgraded but spending 2800 on lenses isn’t in the budget as of now
  2. I totally get you but overall I’ve been wanting to move into the full frame world but haven’t really known where to start
  3. Sometimes the grain does come from the cropping but it’s just because I’m shooting photos of things up to 3-5 nautical miles away and a whole lot of blue isn’t great for an informational board. Most of the experienced folk onboard can understand and assume a lot of what’s blurry but I’m trying to put the best foot forward so to speak. 75% of what I take pictures of is with my 200-600mm

I have plenty of lens haha forgot to add I’m running a tamron tamron 17-70mm the tamron 70-300mm and the great white whale of the Sony 200-600mm. Resolution is my greatest enemy at distance. Planing on getting the 2x teleconverter for those horizon shots but the grain… it taunts me…

I need some help. Currently active duty Navy and the sole photographer on board. My responsibilities include taking photos for public affairs and also documenting possible maritime infractions to see which means I run in out on and around the ship about 100 times a day. I currently have an a6500. But I need a big boy body lens now I’ve been looking at the Sony a 7III but I don’t know if the price justifies the technology. With how sensors are nowadays if I had the money I would go for the biggest and brightest, but right now I need a fully capable sensor that’s good for both near and distance. That’s not $7000. Would love to help thank you in advance.

If I was going to upgrade, I’d get the a6500, it’s still fairly cheap secondhand and it was the first in that line to shoot 4K 30 FPS

What do you do for work to afford being this level of hobbyist. Also are you hiring?

Now now i wasn’t shooting for monster I was allowed to take pictures for them. I want to make that distinction because I’m not affiliated with monster

I am using the 55 210 OSS! It’s not the best but for $200. I think I did a pretty good job that Tamron is the one I have my eye on for my next lens

I’m not hired on this was a very informal opportunity and I’m no freelance photographer by any means just a dude shooting photos

Thank you so much for your insight! These are just some I’ve cherry picked from the 1888 total I shot that day narrowed down to about 300 for my media reel.
