QUOTE(shinchan99 @ Sep 19 2016, 10:22 AM) Hi sifus, I'm newbie in photography.. Just know how to press the snap picture button on camera.. Totally zero knowledge on settings.. Will leave my camera to fully auto mode.. Hence, which should be a better choice for me? RX100mk2 or G7x mk2 ? Generally will be using this camera for vacation use.. Need to flip over the screen so can take selfie is a must.. that's the only few criteria i am looking into right now.. If can no need to turn the knob on the camera lense to get a sharp shoot.. Can sifu please advise? Both camera are capable. Only thing is u prefer touchscreen (G7xmkii) or evf (rx100mkiii)? Though not sure why u put rx100mkii in your choice since it is older model and doesnt even have touchscreen unless cause its cheaper. |

Both the model mention have screen that can flip up and take selfie correct ? Then go for g7. Touchscreen itself is very handy. Never understood why sony never put touchscreen in any of their compacts. This is 2016, danggit. |

QUOTE(ya77 @ Oct 3 2016, 12:34 AM) NICE! i am really satisfied with that camera, but when i take group selfie, only the person who held the camerawill get sharp image, others behind him a bit will blur and out of focus. Do you know any forum to discuss about this camera? Group selfie at close range prefer just use smartphone. There is a technical reason behind i.e. sensor size affect depth of field but too lazy to explain. |

QUOTE(sitescope @ Oct 3 2016, 01:54 PM) Coz front hp camera is using fix focus... So front n all the way back is sharp. Ur camera using variable focal length so u need to understand DOF Ummmmm......coz phone camera has smaller sensor thus "equivalent" dof is huge i.e. front to back will be in focus. Not "fix focus".....actually what is fix focus????? |

QUOTE(goldfries @ Oct 3 2016, 04:28 PM) As for wefie photos, usually people raise it up high so that focal plane alone helps keeping the DOF area covering most faces. And thats where problem with using big sensor on wefie comes in. To get everything in focus, u need very small aperture which in turn very low shutter which may cause motion blur. Using small sensor but big aperture helps negate the low shutter while maintain large dof. |

QUOTE(shinchan99 @ Oct 4 2016, 11:12 PM) I haven't got chance to use yet. Going to use it for my upcoming trip to Perth on Nov.. So any tips tricks to snap good photos sifu? Go to flickr or 500px site, type in Perth in search bar, see examples of some of the good tour shot and try copy that. Of course not do it 100% but just get the feel of what photo you can take and perhaps add in your own flavour. This post has been edited by DaddyO: Oct 4 2016, 11:44 PM |
