    Lumix GX9 or Sony A6400 - or maybe an XE-3 - which would you get?

    I used to own an LX100 and the viewfinder gave me a headache, it put me off EVFs for years.

    Lumix GX9 or Sony A6400 - or maybe an XE-3 - which would you get?

    I was looking at the GX8 but it's pretty big in the body! I did think about the GX80 but feel a bit wary about a ten year old body, though I suppose that's why you buy from somewhere that'll give you a warranty. Really wish there was somewhere near me that had something in the series in stock...

    Lumix GX9 or Sony A6400 - or maybe an XE-3 - which would you get?

    It's possible the answer to this is 'just use your X100F before games and take the z155 with you if you want to do anything at a different focal length' but still! I have taken some nice pre-game shots with the X100F but always regret not having something more versatile with me. (for reference...

    Lumix GX9 or Sony A6400 - or maybe an XE-3 - which would you get?

    I'm looking for a secondary camera for carrying round with me day to day - in particular, one thing I like doing is taking photos of crowds before football matches, but as my main Canon R7 is too big to be allowed to come into the ground with me even if it stays firmly in my bag, I can't do this...

    1 Day in Tokyo with Fuji X100

    I like this, reminds me of the Lomo Metropolis film. Did you go to the cafe up on the tracks?

    Taking a camera into an EFL stadium

    I'm in South London, my main concern is having people come up to me and ask why I'm taking photos of them in the park, hence having a think if there's a more organised way to do it. I tend to stick to birds as they don't mind if you're being nosy! I know someone who works for a League One club...

    Taking a camera into an EFL stadium

    So....you basically had a fake press pass? I'm surprised that worked.

    Taking a camera into an EFL stadium

    My understanding before knowing about how difficult it is to get accredited (and thinking of it in terms of image rights and copyright) was that it was mainly a case of crowd control - tablets banned because people taking photos with them is irritating for others, long lenses obstructing views...

    Taking a camera into an EFL stadium

    Ha, having a look at your website now @KIPAX - you've probably shot at the same stadium I'm considering going to if the nightbus times line up :)

    Taking a camera into an EFL stadium

    I'd probably be the first person to have my accreditation removed for asking too many questions about exactly what paragraph X subclause Y means....

    Taking a camera into an EFL stadium

    I'd really like to try taking proper photos of games just as a way to improve my skills as much as capturing the action, but it's basically closed off to amateurs - as you say people are very nervous about child photography which rules out being able to get started with practice at things like...

    Taking a camera into an EFL stadium

    That's why I'm confused given some club websites show small cameras on their "allowed" list, or specify that "large-bodied" or "professional" cameras specifically are prohibited but not whether others are OK. (My day job is basically interpreting terms and conditions and picking holes in the...

    Taking a camera into an EFL stadium

    (I posted a similar question a while ago on a film photography forum as I wanted to know what speed would work for a match when I wanted to take in something that fitted into a pocket, and an American user said 'can you not chat to one of the photographers at the ground and see if they'll let...

    Taking a camera into an EFL stadium

    Hello! I am looking at attending a pre-season game at an EFL ground and was wondering how likely it would be that I can take in my X100F. I'll be travelling by public transport so being able to leave it in a hotel/car isn't an option. I took it yo a game in Germany last week and really enjoyed...

    Outdated film at Analogue Wonderland

    Thanks both - I'll have a look. It wasn't stored in a fridge, and who knows where it was stored before it got to me...so maybe one to just experiment with and see what happens. I'd really like to try slide film plus cross-processing, but am nervous because I hear it's finicky and is fairly...
