Ciao. In questo esempio con la D850 ho usato jpeg. Ma è lo stesso suono per JPEG o RAW.

@@thephotographytoolkit ciao , il suono si , ma la velocità dovrebbe cambiare , e non di poco. E' diverso pure se si scatta a 12 /14 bit...

@@gufo431 La velocità sarà la stessa in RAW o jpeg. Ciò che cambierà è il numero di foto che puoi catturare nel buffer della fotocamera (memoria interna). La memoria interna si riempirà più velocemente con i file RAW.

@@thephotographytoolkit ...con la mia d750 cambia molto . E' nettamente più veloce . faccio un esempio, immagina la velocità del suono : il rumore di singolo scatto è clack , continuo in raw è cla cla cla , in jpeg è clclclclclclcl...😀

Thanks so much! I'm really glad it was helpful.

I used an older light panel but it is something like this one: tinyurl.com/hskpanel When it comes to the settings on the D850 to digitize images, I just set the camera to the digitize negatives option and it takes care of the white balance and I don't have to do anything- I can't even change the settings.

Thanks so much for the kind comment.

Thanks so much! I really appreciate it.

Thanks for the comment. You are correct that the exposure doesn't change. I kept the same exposure for the images in the video. Also, I am not saying one is better than the other. I use both FF cameras and APSC cameras. The point of my video is that you can't just multiply the focal length of a full frame lens when you put it on a APSC camera and you will get the same image as you would on a full frame sensor. A 200mm FF lens set to f2.8 on an APSC camera will look different than a 300mm lens set to f2.8 on a FF camera.

Exposure is not all that matters. 200mm f2.8 on APSC = 300mm f/4.2 equivalent. That means a FF user has to stop down a 300mm f2.8 prime down to roughly f4 to match the APS-C thus increasing ISO. When your shutter speeds are fixed (as they usually are for portraits/wildlife/etc), APS-C can shoot at wider apertures to use a lower ISO. BUT. The lower ISO is also equivalent to the higher ones on FF. Generally by 1 stop. So you shooting 200mm f/2.8 at ISO 1600 = FF 300mm f/4 at ISO 3200. You're not gaining any exposure advantage. If anything, the FF still can open up to f/2.8 and shoot at ISO 1600 which is even cleaner than your APS-C at 1600. If exposure is all that mattered, we would be glueing lenses to our smartphones. There's a reason why our phones at f/2 still can never match a real camera since it's a 5-7x crop factor. That means the lens of a smartphone is still equal to a FF at f/10 or f/14 even though it's f/2 exposure. And the equivalent ISO is not 100 but 3200 ~ 12,800. ALWAYS multiply crop factor by focal length AND aperture to get the equivalent results.

​@@jasontaycs7195 Sorry, but I can´t hear this nonsens any longer. If I put your 300 mm 2.8 on my APS-c, then i have the exact expsoure at 2.8 and nothing else. I have not the same field of view or depth of field, but that doesn´t care me. If I want the same field of view oder depth of field than I take another lenses or zoom in or out make it by my feet. Naturally another lens is difficult wiht a 300 mm 2.8, that´s for sure, but personally I dont need 300 mm at 2.8, nobody needs it at best a wildlife photographer. But 300 mm with the reach of 450 at APS-c with 2.8 ist something, that is not possible with fullframe. You can do want you want because of bokeh, but the amount of light ist not different.

@@Joh146 Ok, I can't help someone who doesn't wanna learn. Maybe one day you will be more open to learning real world concepts.

I find it way easier in a darkroom 🤣

@@thephotographytoolkit ..pratice makes perfect but yeah at the beginning it was a learning curve, a darkroom would have been a nice touch.

@@zazz63 I have done developed film and contact sheets in a bathroom but never under a bedroom blanket. Maybe I should diversify. 😄

@@thephotographytoolkit ..when shooting 4x5 we used to do our film changes in a black bag under full blazing sunlight. Probably still do i guess. I think we are getting confused between developing film and making prints ..of course you need a dark room to print ..lol. My point is don't think you need a dedicated dark room for developing if you don't have one.

​@@zazz63 I remember the days when I used to shoot infrared film, I would use a changing bag to load and unload the film into the camera You are right that you can do a lot without a dedicated darkroom. I have loaded films into the developing tanks under a black cloth with success. Thanks again for your comment!

That is too bad. I must have gotten one of the last ones when I purchased it 6 months ago. I guess people will have to get it on the second hand market now.

Cameras with detachable lenses or ones that are deemed as 'professional' cameras are definitely not allowed. Generally this means bulkier cameras can't be brought into venues. However, when it comes to smaller cameras, it depends on the concert and the venue that is hosting the concert if they allow you to bring in a point and shoot camera or not.

Tell me more about why you think that. I feel like the F6 improves on the F5 in so many ways.

@@thephotographytoolkit if sony made a cd Walkman in 2024 it would be a after thought. To occupy a diminished or in this case a deadmarket. There would be no new technology in it most likley be very basic. The F6 is a lot like that. The F6 was a late offering by nikon. It was released after the whole digital rocket took off. It was a little slower, it had less accessories for customization. It also had less features. The F5 was made in the pinical of the film age. It was designed for the pros. It was stupid fast with more advanced features. You can say we'll the f6 had a screen..but the F5 made a screen back too. The one thing I can say about the F6 that is better is the availibity of rechargeable battery packs. It is nearly impossible to find the nikon MN-30 rechargeable battery pack for the nikon F5. don't get me wrong I am a nikon fan boy, I think all thier stuff is worth thier weight in gold.. but when you compare the F5 to the F6...The F5 is winner. The F6 didn't take a ride to outer space on the spaceship endevor, that would be the F6.

Thanks for the comment. I am glad it was helpful.

Thanks so much Bo. It was the tour in Singapore - Good eye!

So true! And they are all enjoyable to use in their own right. I hope you are able to collect them all.

Lo siento pero nunca he usado un S23 fe. El iPhone y el S23 se parecen, así que no creo que uno u otro tomen mejores fotos. El fotógrafo detrás de la cámara marca la mayor diferencia.

does this camera allows to record? how about the timer set up?

The camera is automatic so you can't control the shutter speed. It is a point and shoot. The battery is internal so you just need to plug in the camera and charge it.

@@nabilahzdn196 You can't make videos on the camera. There is a 2 and 10 second timer for capturing images.

Thanks so much for your comment Bryan. I really appreciate everything you said. I definitely try to get to the point in my videos and honor the viewer's time. I admit that I love the iPhone too. I didn't even use the almost limitless number of apps you can use for photography on the iphone. When one takes into account those apps, there is so much more you can do on the iphone.

I don't think you can go wrong with either Kevin. It depends what you are looking for when you are capturing those full body portraits. If you want a bit of a blurrier background then go for the 105mm. If you want to be nearer to your subject and have a closer working distance so it might be easier to communicate, then the 85mm is better.

Thanks so much Chris. Can you tell me more about what you are saying? I am not sure if I am understanding you. I captured the images from the exact same perspective with a APSC (cropped) sensor and a (35mm) full frame sensor. When it comes to equivalent focal length's I find this video is also really helpful: ua-cam.com/video/zmlmhrXVfeU/v-deo.htmlsi=EeYcDBSupY7KK7fr&t=64 Thanks!

@@thephotographytoolkit that‘s a good video, but it supports my point. in your experiment there are too many factors at play. lenses have different focal lengths than they say, those change even more at close distance. also, if you mounted the cameras on the same tripod the sensor will be placed slightly differently in the camera. all of these factors will be exaggerated by the really wide angle of view you‘ve chosen. if you think about it you can‘t achieve a different perspective without moving the camera location, so focal length or sensor size doesn‘t change the perspective, they just change the crop of the image

@@ChrisThe1 I guess we will have to agree to disagree Chris. In my examples, I limited the factors that changed to exactly one thing: the focal length of the lens..I purposefully used a zoom lens so it would have the same lens elements. I know the lens elements move inside the lens when zooming, but there isn't anything I can do about that. Nothing else changed or moved.

@@thephotographytoolkit distortion changes as you zoom. Also with the wide aperture and different set focus distance it's hard to compare.

@@ChrisThe1 Like I said Chris, we are just going to have to agree to disagree. The purpose of my video is to show that you can't just multiply the focal length of a full frame lens when you put it on a APSC camera and get the same image as you would on a full frame sensor. A 14mm FF lens on an APSC camera will look different than a 21mm lens on a FF camera. If you are still not convinced, I would recommend doing the test yourself.

Happy belated father's day Ian! I hope you love the camera and enjoy exploring these techniques.

@@thephotographytoolkit Actually I really love this camera and keep on exploring. Thank you

I am not sure why you don't have the green square for focus that can be seen at the 2:14 mark of the video. When I slightly depress the shutter release button to focus, I don't see it but after a short delay (as the camera focuses), it shows up. It allows me to focus and lock exposure and then recompose without lifting my finger off the slightly depressed shutter release button. I thought it might have something to do with face detection being turned on or off but it shows up for me for both. It also shows up when macro is on or off. Is your firmware for your camera is up to date?

Thanks so much!

Great question! I have actually recently just purchased a Mint TL70 plus camera which uses square Instax film. It is a TLR camera and I think it is absolutely beautiful. The screen is the same size as the print so you see what you get. It isn't a hybrid camera like the Mini Evo so you can't choose which images you print but I am really excited about the larger print size. It also allows for automatic or manual control so I am looking forward to exploring the possibilities. It is a more expensive option than the SQ20 and SQ10 so we will see if it is worth it. Maybe check out the Mint cameras as there are some other options that take Instax film: mint-camera.com/en/shop/cameras/

@@thephotographytoolkit Thank you so much for replying! The TL70 looks amazing, but definitely out of my price range lol. Especially as a first camera. I found an unopened, never used SQ10 for s reasonable price, so I just bought it! And I'm very excited, despite it's clunky design😅 While getting it, I saw the square and mini photos side by side and decided that the mini prints aren't too small after all! But that i was still happy with my purchase, sooo...I will probably end up with an Instax Mini Evo in addition to the SQ10. I think they serve different but equally great purposes. The square cameras are very big (the SQ weighs almost 500 grams) and the Evo is going to be more portable. I'm really looking forward to learning about instant cameras and having a more present and analog life:)

@@googleuser25 That is fantastic that you got a SQ10 for a reasonable price. I hope you enjoy capturing images with it. Any camera that takes the square format film will definitely be larger so there isn't much that can be done about that. Having both the SQ10 and the mini Evo will give you options and I would just try to enjoy each camera for what they are. Have fun!

I am not sure I understand your question. Can you elaborate on your question? Do you mean, did I use the jpeg files to create the video or did I take pictures of the film photos to make the video? Thanks

Thanks so much for the comment Den. I am really happy the video helped to clear things up!

Unfortunately there currently isn't a square shape polaroid which has these functions. That would be something I would LOVE to see in the future!

The Fujifilm SQ10 and SQ20 shoot Instax square film. Both are discontinued and very overpriced. Thankfully I’ve had mine for years.

I would say 'equivalent' instead of the 'same.' But I feel that the video shows more than this. It shows that you can't just multiply the focal length of a full frame lens when you put it on a APSC camera and you will get the same image as you would on a full frame sensor.

I am really glad it was helpful!

Good idea! But, like I said in the video, unless you're really far away, I would probably just stick with my iPhone 15 pro Max.

I totally understand that. You also might find my newer comparison video interesting where I capture RAW files instead of jpegs: ua-cam.com/video/g3EcGbDPh9M/v-deo.html

Thanks! I am so glad you like my content. To be honest, the camera is only a 4.9 megapixel camera which gives you a file of just over 1 MB. It isn't something that you are going to be able to enlarge so if that is important then I wouldn't recommend it. I like it for what it is - a fun camera with various effects that will print Instax sized images and also images from my phone. Here are some examples of my favourite creative techniques if you are interested: ua-cam.com/video/fsDirWOgxms/v-deo.html

Thank you so much!

@@toffeerie You are most welcome!

Thanks for the comment Faith. You are correct that you get the same exposure with an APSC sensor as you do with a full frame sensor and the same lens set to the same aperture. The opening of the aperture does not change and the exposure does not change. That is why we use the term equivalent aperture because the look of the image is different. I find this video helpful: ua-cam.com/video/zmlmhrXVfeU/v-deo.htmlsi=EeYcDBSupY7KK7fr&t=64 As Chris states, “Focal lengths need to change with different sensor sizes to give us the same kind of field of view. Apertures also have to change with different sensor sizes to give the same depth of field”. This is also a good article: www.dpreview.com/articles/2666934640/what-is-equivalence-and-why-should-i-care/2

@@thephotographytoolkit Thanks for the explanation, I agree for the most part but during my test, what I found was, comparing R6 full frame + RF to EF adapter vs R7 apsc + speedbooster on the same full frame F/1.8 50mm ef lens, the r7 + the metabones speedbooster gave me an equivalent focal length of 57mm with wide open at f/1.2 gave a much shallower dept of field than on the full frame body, it might just be the 7mm difference however the dept of field feels closer to like an 85mm lens wide open at f/1.8 rather than 35mil /1.2. It might also be due to the barrel distortion caused by the speedbooster however the distortion is only a little, not even noticable unless you look closer and really pay attention. Thanks again.

@@fy7589 Thanks for sharing Faith. I don't have any experience with a speedbooster so I appreciate your insight!

I haven't done any direct comparisons between those cameras but I actually own a F80 and a F100. The F100 is fantastic and it is better than the F80 when it comes to autofocus. You're right about the F6 being more advanced so I would assume it is better than the F100 but it may be hard to give actual numbers.

You're most welcome! I'm glad it was useful.

Thanks so much! Hope you have fun with the techniques!

It really is fantastic! The F801S was my first film camera but the F100 made me feel more like a professional. I have heard that sound many times and I love it.

Thanks so much for your comment! The ability to choose which photos you want to print and printing multiple photos of the same image are two of the best things about the Instax Mini Evo. I hope you enjoy your camera! If you want to try out some creative techniques check out my other video: ua-cam.com/video/fsDirWOgxms/v-deo.html

Thanks so much Paul!

That is awesome you are going to see Taylor Swift next month! Enjoy the experience. It is absolutely incredible! I do recommend trying things out beforehand in darker conditions to see how well everything works. If you really want to go for the best quality, you could try to enable ProRAW Max on your iPhone. Go to Settings > Camera > Formats and turn on "ProRAW & Resolution Control" and once you do that you will be able to select "Pro Default" and the highest setting is ProRAW Max (up to 48 MP). Then when you go into your camera there will be a "RAW Max" icon. If there is a line through it, then just tap it and the line will go away and it will be active. It will give you a larger file size and will give you the most data in your image to deal with later for things like shadows and highlights etc. The photos do take up A LOT more space so be aware of that. I hope you have the best experience ever!

I am not sure if it would have weather sealing or not without the cap.You can definitely get the flash sync cap. The ones you can find on ebay or other places might not be labelled as for the Df but it is the same cap that goes on the F4 and F5. I just tested it and took the cap off my f5 and f4 and they fit on the Df. So just look for one of those.

Thanks for your thoughts.

Sorry for the confusion Freddy. I think I know what is going wrong. Don't set the camera in mirror mode. Use double exposure mode. Cover half the frame for the first shot and then rotate the camera around and change the filter for the second shot. Let me know if that works or if you have any other questions.

@@thephotographytoolkit yeah shortly after I sent that message, I realized that the trick is to continue using double ex. Hearing you say mirror made me assume you were using the mirroring filter so thats why I got confused, thank you!

@@koneF0 Totally makes sense! Happy to help.

I am so excited that you are going to the Eras Tour! I know you will have the best time. I am jealous that you are going to hear some of TTPD songs and we didn't. On the other hand, I am sad that she took out some songs like The Last Great American Dynasty but I know she can't just add a bunch more songs without taking some out. When it comes to sound, I would say that the iPhone had better audio. Sorry, but I don't have any experience with android cameras. I will say that I am really glad I updated from my iPhone 11pro to the 15pro max. It was so much better in low light. Have an amazing time!

Thank you SO much! I really appreciate the positive feedback!

Thank you so much for the comment Whitley! I hope you enjoy the camera as much as I do!

@@thephotographytoolkit I agree and also thinking about getting the nikon z400mmf2.8 tc or Nikon z600mm f4

@@NikCan66 Either of those would be amazing! I buy most of my equipment used so I will probably have to wait for a while.

@@thephotographytoolkit interesting to see if a mark ii Z mount versions of these lenses come out like z mount 180-400mm f4 or Z mount Nikon 200mm f2

@@NikCan66 Great question! That would be interesting to see.

Thanks for the question. The controls are not illuminated but I didn't have a problem seeing them. In regards to if there is a problem getting the Lumix into the arena, you might want to check with the event as some events (or even some arenas) have blanket rules about cameras. Some say you can't bring professional cameras while others say you can't bring any cameras other than your phone. The Lumix is super compact and easy to carry so I didn't have a problem. I hope that helps.

Thanks for the comment and question. I think it is funny that you say that my video is older because it is less than a year old and one of my newer videos. 😂 You are correct that if you haven't printed the picture on the Instax Mini Evo, the camera will not give you the option of sending it to your phone. That is definitely a pain. My guess as to why they did this is because I might take a lot of photographs of one subject on my Evo and only choose to print a limited number and maybe they assume the limited number are the ones I want to send to my phone. If I had to scroll through all the hundreds or thousands of photos I have on my camera it might take some time and I might not know which one is the one I like best between similar shots. It would be great if, when transferring to my phone, I could choose between all photos or photos I have printed. That would give me options but still make it easy to find and print the photos I like best and have printed. An option of favouriting photos and viewing just those would work as well. One of your options is tricking the Mini Evo into thinking you have printed as outline here: ua-cam.com/video/442TCPqfTA0/v-deo.html That process is quite time consuming. I prefer the second option. The second option is just to use a micro USB card and download the photos to your computer then your phone. The photos won't have the white border as they would if you transfer right from the phone. If I really want the white border, I just use a program like photoshop to combine a photo that I have printed and transferred that has the white border with the one from my micro USB. Then I transfer from my computer to my phone. I hope that make sense and I hope that helps.

@@thephotographytoolkit haha, that's my misunderstanding of UA-cam from the content creator's end. I've asked questions on other videos and never got answers and assumed it's because the video is "old" and they never saw it. Thanks so much for your thorough reply and I'll keep that work-around in mind. Yes, it makes sense what you say. To be honest, I'm not a big photographer since everything went digital and I'm kind of just looking at options to have physical photos again. My mother had a Ricoh of some sort when we were growing up and us kids really didn't know how to use it properly but my god did we take so many photos! I feel like the magic has been lost a little now, ya know? I may go ahead and pick up a second hand camera from eBay in the end - just checking my options here and the Instax seems really fun and the limitation on transferring them isn't so bad in comparison to the old days when we couldn't even see our results for weeks so I am sure I will adapt - it just seemed like a strange limitation to build into a semi-digital camera. Haha. Thanks again for the reply and also the great videos, I was up at 2am watching you and other creators and I feel really excited about film cameras again!

@@TheLiquidCat It is all good! On my end, I try my best to answer questions the best I can. Thanks for the reply. I love both digital and analog photography and I do a bunch of both. I try to appreciate each for what they are and the challenges that come with each format. When it comes to the Mini Evo, I was attracted the the fact that I could capture photos with the camera and also print any photos from my phone. I really like that I can select photos to print and don't have to print everything. I totally understand when you say it is nice to have physical photos. I actually make it a point to get larger photos (30x40 inches or 50x75cm) printed every year and those are from digital files. I also get a book printed of images of my kids every year - like a year in review. Having physically printed photos is fantastic. In fact, the analog images that I capture on film are often scanned so I can share them or use them in other ways. I think what I am trying to say is that I really encourage people to get images printed and not just leave them as digital files and it doesn't matter if the image was captured as a digital file or an analog file. And I love the Mini Evo because it is really easy to capture images and share them. I especially like it when I am out taking pictures of people. I have even captured an image with my DSLR and wirelessly transferred it right away to my phone and then printed it with the mini Evo so I can share a portrait with the person I just took a picture of. That way it acts like a mini photo printer. I hope you enjoy whatever camera you decide to get.

Thanks for sharing Jean-Claude. I have an adapter for the my Fujifilm GFX 50R but I haven't done any direct comparisons with my GFX lenses. I am looking forward to it.
