These are nice man. Living in bmore where the 2015 riots jumped off, I have pics that I’ve personally liked but have been bittersweet about posting. But as a photographer you gotta get the shot because opportunities like this don’t last.

Y'all have any tips for headshots?

I do videography, but my friends and family see my camera and think I'm a photographer as well

I'll be shooting with a Panasonic GH5 and sigma 35mm 1.4

I honestly hate doing this, just helping out a friend
be careful with distortion.

Sprint is carrying it.

Another feature that I'm anxious to see on this one is the Sony DSLR camera monitor mode. I was reading up on it a bit and I saw that this thing is going to have a mode where you can use it as a monitor for your main mirrorless camera

:wow:
Curious... Is that something different than we can already do with the Sony app and wifi to our phone?

This is different than the remote/wifi app I believe. I have to dig in more to see for sure, but I think this feature is going transform your phone into a high end external monitor. Which offers more than just changing some composure settings and snapping photos.

From last Friday, had to head downtown for some business but I didn't have my camera on me so I just used my phone after I finished with what needed to be done since it shorter than expected
