You'd probably have to buy a memory card reader for your phone. I haven't used this in years so I don't remember much about it and if it has any type of wireless app.

Not possible to use EF-M lenses on RF or EF/EF-S. The "flange distance" is shorter than either of them.

The reason I had "fisheye" in the title is because when the lens was available it had that in the name. With the trash thing, I've done it a few times but on a whim. Usually I don't think to bring a bag. I can't remember the last time I recorded a video out in nature so it's been a while. This was from 2022. 👍

They changed the battery for the 13, so probably not.

Yeah, it effectively compresses a full-frame imaging circle into APS-C. Though at 0.71x so not completely.

@@blues12bar60 Half-press does nothing. It will jump back to the normal view if you fully press the shutter to take a photo.

I see, I haven't tried to calculate that. Convenience and ease of offloading gear definitely has a price. I consider what I do here a business, so I tend to value the time and potential hassle savings more than the extra cash I'd get. One positive of trying to find local buyers is maybe getting a friendship out of it. I still know a few guys I sold gear to many years ago. 😄 Though with eBay and selling/buying on forums I have had a few bad experiences, so that's the last option on my list. I used to consign gear a lot at a local camera shop until it closed. Has the benefit of low hassle with a bit more value than KEH/MPB, but the downside of not getting cash for a few months.

@ yeah, I’ve followed the gear that I sold to them, and the price doubles. I was surprised to see how fast it sells too! They have a very fast turnover rate with employees as well. I have been buying from them for years, with just a few bad experiences. It is very good to see the actual photos of the items!

I guess with a more well known name comes higher prices. 🥲

This manual page describes how to use the flash: helpguide.sony.net/gbmig/45333561/v1/en/contents/TP0000233987.html?search=Flash It looks like there is a button for flash that toggles through modes. I haven't used this camera for years and it was only an hour to record footage for the video, so I don't know how to use it.

Aperture priority with a minimum shutter speed to limit the chance of them or me moving to mess up the photo. The ISO is automatic based on those two. I might occasionally use EV compensation in really challenging lighting. The shutter speed depends on your preference, but I use a relatively high 1/200th minimum, but the downside is in ISO performance. I move around pretty quick so that high shutter speed limits the issue of accidental movements.

@@ScottJWaldron Thank you just super nervous is all 😅ill be using my 35mm f2 and 16-80mm f4 any advice on what to use where? was thinking 35mm indoors and 16-80mm outside.

@ That sounds like a good idea. 35mm feels like a happy medium that I'd use most of the time as long as you are happy with that field-of-view. If you do longer more extensive photo sets with cosplayers then you can explore the 16-80mm lens.

I'll also mention, image quality for me is secondary to getting the cosplayer to look as good as possible in the photo. So my positioning and their facial expression is important to me. I take multiple photos and usually get a full body plus more of a portrait style photo. Besides that I'm mostly concerned about trying to ask cosplayers when it won't inconvenience them (like not when they are eating, resting, have a prop or cosplay malfunction, rushing to somewhere, etc).

@ScottJWaldron I imagine you have face and eye tracking on? Or do you turn it off if your inside with the massive crowd?

This is an old video so I don't remember, but generally I output RAWs without a ton of editing for my videos.

I use RAW mostly. Usually for videos I do minimal, if any, editing and export them as a jpeg either in 4k or full size depending on the video.

Nice! 📷✨

Yeah, ultimately the same sensor will get people the same result.

Sorry, I don't have this lens anymore, so I can't do more testing with it. The lens seemed fine overall, but it was clearly an early e-mount lens and had limitations like a smaller area you can focus and generally autofocus was slower than a recent lens.

@ScottJWaldron thanks for the reply. I'm just getting into photography and it's so expensive. I'm trying to get the best value items whilst I build up my collection

@@mrlionrocks I've enjoyed used copies of the Sigma 18-50mm f/2.8 and Sony 16-70mm f/4 on this camera. More expensive than this lens overall but both lenses are a lot more versatile.

@@ScottJWaldron thanks,I'll have a look

Hey, if it works for you that's what matters! Camera prices are rough.

I'd probably try to use the mark 2 before getting the original. Maybe 3 of the new one instead? 🤔😄 I don't have that type of cash but yeah, it would be nice!

It would need the WU-1B for wireless. You could try getting a USB cable with the correct connectors and see if it will transfer to a phone. If I'm remembering correctly, it has mini-B USB so you'd need male mini-B on one side and on the other side the male version of whatever your phone has (probably USB-C if it's newer). Another option is buying a SD card reader for your phone. They have them for phones (again, depends on your phone's USB port, probably USB-C or micro USB).

Nice! 👍 They are super versatile.

Nice! I'm glad the video was helpful to you. 👍

It has peaking and zoom in. With zoom you can apply a few different levels of zoom to custom buttons and it zooms in where the focus point is.

That's a good point about it potentially increasing the cost. 👍

I'm no expert and don't do camera repair. I also only used this camera for an hour or two years ago. Here are a few general ideas on the problem: I'd doubt paying a repair shop to fix a Nikon B500 would be worth the expense. First look at the manual to make sure you are opening the battery door correctly. If you don't have the manual, you can download a digital PDF version of it from Nikon's website: downloadcenter.nikonimglib.com/en/products/327/COOLPIX_B500.html Generally this camera took AA batteries, so once you get the battery door open then do some searching and look for videos on how to safely remove leaking AA batteries from electronics. As well as how to clean the damage they do to the terminals inside the battery compartment. Obviously, I'm going to assume you don't want to get the leaking material on your skin and especially eyes, so be careful. There are various types of AA batteries so whatever is coming out could be different. I wouldn't rely on just one guide you find on the subject.

I've never used that specific camera, but this is an EF-S lens so I don't see why it wouldn't.

Never owned that camera so I'm going to assume you are a bot. 🤣

@@ScottJWaldronno I just washed ur review video from like 5 years ago

@@aimmason4878 Ohh, yeah. A lot of videos I record at a camera shop. So I probably used that camera for like an hour. Wasn't mine. 👍

@@ScottJWaldronohhh okay thanks for the info

It has multiple pronunciations. I say it more like Europeans to be between the US and Japan. In Japan it's more like Knee-ko-nn = ニコン. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nikon

That's rough, sorry to hear it.

@ Well they’ve called off the dogs for now and promised a refund… but we’ll see …)

1080p 30 fps worked for a long period of time. 1080p 60 fps overheated.

Haha, yeah, screams of desperation in the form of a weak joke. 👏🤣 Those types of videos are a ton of work and tend to be flooded with options so not a huge deal. The main issue is not being able to access potential affiliate sales like my on-website Amazon reviews of equipment (old stuff stops being popular/sold). My viewership on there has dropped a lot now that my local camera shop I used to record at closed down. I don't have the viewership to get PR offerings from 1st party camera companies and I'm probably not especially brand safe compared to some like Petapixel, so it feels very unlikely I'll get access.

Yep, the BF is fully electronic shutter. Kinda why it feels over priced at $2k even though the case of the camera is a block of metal. www.sigma-global.com/en/cameras/bf/ similar to the compact Lumix full-frame camera. Can't remember the name of that one.
