    Looking at a new camera

    Video holds no interest for me at all yet all of the mirrorless cameras have this built in. My photography is all about stills and looking for a new camera that can be hand-held in low light and still capture good images. Initally, I was looking at the R6 mkii but the R6 is cheaper. If you were...

    Re-thinking about new camera

    Thank you sk66 for your explanation even though I didn't understand it. It's amazing at the depth of knowledge people have on sites like this. Being an amateur and shooting just for my pleasure I only have to please myself, thank goodness.

    Re-thinking about new camera

    In low light I have had to ignore some possible shots because the shutter speed was too low to hand hold and expect a usable image. Most of the time I had a Manfrotto 055 with a pro pan/tilt head. That ia a very steady tripod but also quite heavy and why I want to avoid a tripod. I may never...

    If anything goes on a new camera you can bet there is a cost recapture. That is one thing I have learned over my 76 years on this earth.

    Re-thinking about new camera

    I was thinking about the R6 mdii as my next camera but it has a lot of bells and whistles that I won't use. Shooting 40 frames a second is of little use in shooting abstracts, having high burst numbers, again of little use to me.What is important is low light capabilities. I saw some shots that...

    software for toning digital B/W

    Thank you Ranger Smith for your suggestion. However, one of the colors I will be using is purple. It makes the blacks more dense and gives the other colors(greys,whites) a similar richness but more limited.

    software for toning digital B/W

    Thank you everyone for your ideas. I really want to tone some of my images but health and other issues kept me from doing so. Maybe this time I will succeed as this is just a personal goal. I am an amateur in every sense of the word. Thank you again. Tim
