:dahell:1.5k for a goddamn f4 zoom? Glad I went Fuji, though the prices ain't a picnic hear either.
Biggest lesson I learned although too late is to look at lens prices when considering an ecosystem. More often than not, most modern bodies are too similar with each other save for a few niche features.

Yea, and Sony is lacking in a ton of lenses for its systems, yet they insist on releasing new cams yearly. You think your A9 is the shyt? 6 months later, A9s. 8 months later, A10.
Its kind of dope they pump out cameras regularly, but it doesn't seem like they double down on existing things.

I got into fuji off the strength of what the x100F offers me, and the fact they do regular firmware upgrades for cameras. Also, the jpegs:letyasoulglow:

So what photo editing software yall rocking with:lupe:

I'm torn between Affinity (due to the one time purchase and customization options) and Corel Paintshop which seems a bit underrated in the photography game. I don't want to drop 9.99 a month for Photoshop:camby:
The lightroom and photoshop 9.99 package.
