Damn so y’all on Sony?

Y’all to good for canon now ehh :Buhari1:

I really like the a7III. It’s a keeper but I was thinking about getting a Canon M50 just to see if it could be a good everyday camera. I’ve heard good things especially with the Viltrox adapter that allows use of EF lenses.

Any tips on backdrops? Like do cheap kits do the trick or do you really have to spend?

Decatur where its greater
While I have a few mins to kill at work Ill post some pics from this summer. All taken from my Note 8. Which makes me extra excited to get my Nikon Z6 today



A random at the airport in ATL from my Instagram feed to mark the start of travel season



Spent some time in Pittsburgh




While in Madrid...



Was in NYC a few times, this time I had a telly in Long Island City looking into the city I call this shot 'Gotham'




This represents my commute to work on BART when I dont want to drive



Chilling next to the Golden Gate...



In the Chi for business but made time to hit up Wrigley



While in Peru overlooking the



La Marina Lighthouse in Lima, Peru



Watch the saturation and vibrance in some of the photos bruh, looks a little heavy. Unless thats your style of course. I think Gotham joint would look dope too with a 16x9 crop maybe idk. But anyway, keep shyt bruh keep shooting!

That new Tamron 17-28 for Sony is fire. I'm interested to see how their telephoto will be. I'm assuming it'll be like 75-210mm or something. I've been eyeing that Sony 70-200 f4 too :patrice:
I got my eye on that 17-28, going to get the 28-75 first tho.

Just pulled the trigger on that EOS RP. And picked up the 24-105 grown up lense. Lol I finally took the training wheels off.

Outer Heaven
Cruise is gonna stop at Cozumel Mexico, Jamaica, and Cayman Islands.
I'm kind of tempted to bring the drone out there but at the same time, I'm not familiar enough with their drone laws and my gut says not to take the chance.
Part of me feels like I wouldn't even be able to take good enough shots if I'm constantly looking over my shoulder worried I get caught in the wrong area with it.

Bring it. But ask the crew before you deploy it. They should know the local laws.

I've been droning for about 3-4 years now and on my 4th DJI drone. Trust me... Just get that bytch in the air and you're GOOD. A true no fly zone will stop you from taking off in the first place. But as long as you can get that joint up high, nobody is looking up for a drone. And they most likely can't see it anyway. And if they did, they still don't know who's in control and where you're going to land it

I've shot live over made in america in philly, while in the crowd. Every continent except africa and that's cause I haven't been. Places where they say no drones, I just go far enough away that they can't see me, and fly it over to my destination.

You know how we truly shouldn't be out here shooting without a permit and work license and blah blah blah.... Yea... Same concept. Guerrilla shooting...


Mind you, I've never once even been approached about flying where I'm not supposed to. I've had cops come and ask me about the drone but never about any laws. In a public place where everyone can clearly see you're not invading houses/property or doing anything nefarious.... They tend to just be amazed and bother you asking questions while you're trying to fly
