Hey there, people, passioned about Photography!
Here is the latest journal of the "Photographic Society" community on HIVE.
It is so great to see increased activity in the community. The user base is now over 100 and growing up! Welcome to all the new members, looking forward for your Photography-centered posts!
One big part of the fun of being passionate about Photography are the various sources of interesting news.
So we're constantly looking for inspiration.
Here is some fresh selected news from https://www.thephoblographer.com/
Fujifilm XT4 and XT5 vs. X Pro 3: Which is Best?
Fujifilm’s modern mirrorless bodies draw inspiration from vintage film cameras, from the leather-like wrap and silver color option to the classic top dials. But what classic camera design is the best inspiration, the film SLR or the rangefinder? To answer that question, look no further than the SLR-like Fujifilm XT5 vs. X Pro 3, a rangefinder-inspired body.https://www.thephoblographer.com/2023/04/18/fujifilm-xt4-and-xt5-vs-xpro-3/
The Best Panasonic Lenses With Gorgeous Bokeh You’ll Love!
There's some really good news to know about Panasonic lenses with gorgeous bokeh. First off, the majority of them are insanely affordable. So if you're just getting started, you can grab a lens and it will probably be the one you stick with for a very long time. Additionally, they're built well. That's not all though: the majority of them have 9 or more aperture blades. What's not to like about that when it comes to smooth bokeh? We're rounding up a few key gems that we really adore. So check them out below!https://www.thephoblographer.com/2023/04/18/the-best-panasonic-lenses-with-gorgeous-bokeh-youll-love/

Kodak Alaris is for Sale. What Does it Mean For Film?
Film photographers these days share a passionate love of analog photography, experimentation, the interpersonal nature, and the larger craft service of it all. But they also share a frustration that spreads and causes anguish. Primarily, the causes are the practices of both Kodak and Fujifilm. Now, it, unfortunately, seems like things are getting worse. Apparently, Kodak Alaris, the company that distributes Kodak's film, is for sale.https://www.thephoblographer.com/2023/04/17/kodak-alaris-is-for-sale-what-does-it-mean-for-film/
Sigma 60-600mm f4.5-6.3 DG DN OS Sports Review: Versatility That Comes with a Big Sacrifice
The larger the sensor, the harder it is to fit a significant zoom range into a single lens. That’s why bridge cameras can pack in a 100x zoom, but the Sigma 60-600mm f4.5-6.3 DG DN OS Sports is, thus far, the only 10x zoom lens for full-frame E-Mount and L-Mount. The ability to shoot at a mid-range focal length, like 60mm and then 600mm is impressive.https://www.thephoblographer.com/2023/04/17/sigma-60-600mm-f45-63-dg-dn-sports-review/
The Canon EOS R5 Got a Pretty Useless Update
The Canon EOS R5 is in a truly odd place now within Canon's lineup of cameras. It's supposed to be more or less a Canon 5D series camera. But in a bunch of ways, it seems to be behind lower priced cameras in the lineup. We're expressing this, amongst other disappointments in our Canon EOS R5 review update. In fact, if you're a Canon EOS R5 owner, I would probably not even bother with this one.https://www.thephoblographer.com/2023/04/17/the-canon-eos-r5-got-a-pretty-useless-update/

Right as the spring is starting, we’re seeing a bunch of great Panasonic deals pop up! There’s rebates on the S1H, the GH6, the original S5, and so much more. …https://www.thephoblographer.com/2023/04/16/one-of-the-best-micro-four-thirds-cameras-has-a-discount/
Still A Long Way From Being Great – Peakto Review
As photographers evolving over the years, we've probably tried out various photography software. A number of these were catalog based that gave your images a hierarchy of some sort. Apple's Aperture was one of those. Adobe Lightroom was another. Capture One Pro is my current one. But we hardly ever migrated images and their edits from one software to another. At least I haven't (as yet) moved my 14-year Lightroom catalog over to Capture One. I know I'd need to set aside at least a week to do that. For those of us who don't want to go through this tedious task, CYME (pronounced /saɪm/) has introduced an application called Peakto. Currently for mac users only, it is an AI-powered software that acts as a one-stop viewer for your database of images spread across all your various software catalogs.https://www.thephoblographer.com/2023/04/16/still-a-long-way-from-being-great-peakto-review/
What’s Next for Nikon Z Lenses? Affordable and Innovative Glass is a Must
Since launching the Z system in 2018, Nikon has used lens roadmaps to apprise photographers of what’s next. With just three native Nikon Z lenses at the launch, those projections were vital in convincing its longtime fans when to make the mirrorless switch. But while the initial roadmap projected two years out, 2023 is the last year listed in the current projections — and there are just six lenses left that haven’t seen at least a development announcement. That, of course, begs two questions: When are we going to see those remaining six lenses? And where will the Z lens line-up go from here?https://www.thephoblographer.com/2023/04/15/nikon-z-lenses-whats-next-2023-roadmap/
Why should you post in the Photographic Society?
Well, let's put that down in the shortest way possible. The other photo-related communities ask for your photos and stories along. Such posts are welcome here too but the focus of this virtual group is to discuss our thoughts about Photography itself. For instance, talk about equipment, ask for advice, give criticism, and share photo news, monetizing opportunities, concepts, found photographs, techniques, stock agencies, experience in the field, photo NFTs, etc. The list is long.
Did you get the idea? If yes, what are you waiting for? ;) Start posting today! :)
Our mission is to make this community on HIVE more popular and potentially attract Twitter users to join the platform, so please follow us on Twitter here: https://twitter.com/photosochive
We share manually selected posts on Twitter! But that's not all. On Twitter we search for other photographers and photo lovers over there, to appreciate and share, and admire their work. There are other plans too, for other initiatives. Both here and on Twitter. Researching other social networks is in progress as well.
Can we support each other, sharing the same passion? The future will show that!
This post is 100% Power Up.
