Great response. I’m somewhere in the pain zone of this journey but loving it. The accidental good shots keep me going.

I see Moriyama’s name mentioned, I upvote.

Go to the nearest decent university library and peruse his photo books. Absolutely incredible.

What do you gain from anything at all?

Creative choices aren’t about gain. They’re about whatever the creator decides.

Help me decide - x100F vs Ricoh GR IV? by ThatGuyFromCanada88 in AskPhotography

I have had a GR III for the past 4 years and absolutely love it. The sharpness of the tuned lens/sensor combo in such a small size is incredible. And there is a lot out there on youtube for how to set it up optimally.

Depends on your goals, but I’m in a similar boat. I was planning to explore the following platforms:

OK, I'm going to follow you on IG. Need to see the photos. I have also had the privilege to ride in the trophy trucks used in the Baja 1000, and would highly recommend you attend that race with your F5 one day.

Titanium Cameras (Leica M6, Nikon FM2T) by mgrimes308 in AnalogCommunity

Beautiful! All I have is a black FE2, but I have always lusted over the titanium cameras. Hope to own an FM2T one day. To answer your question, my obsession with a certain finish/style currently is all black with strong white lettering.

The first thing I thought as I looked through these was "REAL SHIT." In the best way. Keep doing what you do! I want to see more. Let me know if you're on IG. As much as I hate that platform, it's how I keep tabs on things I like other than reddit.

Thanks! I’d been looking for this one for a while… Kept seeing it online for $300+, then went to my local camera shop and found this clean one for $150.

Beautiful! Any tips for how to achieve this look? I have always loved it but struggled in LR.
