After Film Cameras, DSLRs are the best!

arent they big and heavy?
Comment from : @DiogoC-n6k

I started photography this year, my first camera is a mirrorless olympus around 10 years old, and I love it I just got a canon t4i DSLR thats also about 10 years old, and I have not taken it out yet, but just from shooting pictures of my son with it, I think I am going to love it, too price point is my main motivator for picking up such old cameras, but there seems to be a sentiment going around that around 10 years ago was a very good time for modern digital photography

Used prices for DSLR lenses have dropped drastically, so now is the time to get that dream lens you could never afford!brIf you're still a DSLR photographer that is!
Comment from : @Patbwoy

There's nothing that brings me to 'mirrorless', and there's no reason for me longing for more than 12 MP of my Nikon D300 and – perhaps soon – D700 I only use old 1969–1983 Nikkor manual focus lenses and enjoy it The D300 shares them with some analogue Nikons (F2S, matEL, EL2, F801s) I simply like this way of taking/making photos;-))
Comment from : @philosimot

My Nikon D40 is my favorite camera 6mp and you'd be hard press to find any difference when viewing photos on any screen devices, unless your pixel peeping and blowing up the image to 200 or more

Even the Film camera are still usable! Why would say DSLR are dead?
Comment from : @leon-z6r

My very first , brand new camera was a Pentax 35mm [film] Hurricane Katrina took her away and gosh I miss it
Comment from : @SageWhite-Rose

Think can get DSLR about $100 and good lenses Yes great photos mate
Comment from : @jameshchetwyndjr9739

I agree 10000
Comment from : @alponton

In my country dslr cameras are still a hit because people will give you an instant respect and admiration and will take you more seriously because it makes you look like a professional photographer because of its bulkiness even if you're not

In 2022 I bought a FujiFilm S3 Pro with a Nikon F mount and a CCD sensor I am happy
Comment from : @KamenKunchev

Excellent video 😮!
Comment from : @stephanweiskorn6760

Well, I have a modern mirrorless Sony alpha blah blah, yet mostly use Pentax K1000 film camera and Fuji S5 Pro CCD Not sure why 😂 honestly for some folks 6 MP is more than enough as long as you got a good enough lens and basic skills Cool videos thanks mate ❤ for pros it is a different storybrbrThis discussion is a bit like the debate between valve amplifier vs solid state Of course solid state is less noisy but some folks like the inevitable distortion in the valve output Same argument about vinyl vs CD vs FLAC digital 😅brbrOn a similar topic my pal owns a BMW M6, pretty new Yet he rides an old x type Jag he calls jimmie jag but I call it shitty jag So, nostalgia yes eh 😂
Comment from : @aspiran2010

All older digital cameras SUCK They all expose things badly, blow out the highs, and get the colour balance wrong Yes you can compensate manually, but the SLRs tend to be very un-user friendly and by the time you fiddle around the subject matter is gone or you could have gotten a better result from a cell phone

I still miss my clunky D90, what a thick bhoe!

Pentax K10D is still one of my favorite cameras I have a K5 II, K3, and a K1, but the K10D still never fails to impress
Comment from : @justinweier4099

I totally agree — I got some trash inside my Sony α6500 4/16-70 lens and had to take my old Sony α100 with me on vacation — I fell in love with it again :)
Comment from :

I love your video and I couldn't agree more It's a great time to get into photography Using a real camera whether it's an old film 0:02 SLR or a DSLR is just a lot of fun! Now you've made me want to pick up an old CCD camera!

Nikon d80 or d200 ?brFor now, I ordered d100 :D
Comment from : @HiCZoK

I recently picked up a Sony Alpha 900 just for sake of trying out photography as a profession, and I always held a belief that cameras of the yesteryear had better colours, the Alpha 900 is supposedly the King of all CMOS/CCD cameras when it comes to colour, and I gotta admit, the micro-contrast out of this bad boy, ridicules good, there certain textures you can try take pictures of like red texture with dark red patterns which shows up as muddy and washed out on a modern camera, but old cameras render these perfectly and everything to do with the CFA, I may have said there something like thicker and thinner CFA, but from digging around for years now, it might actually be manufacturers cheaping out on the colour dyes used in the CFA, there certain papers on this citing strong case of it as even medium format cameras struggle to capture certain ranges of colour, lime green is particular one that modern cameras struggles with so much, Canon and Fujifilm cannot even render this particular colour well at all, it turns into a muddy brownish yellow brYet Canon 6D renders lime green quite well, not as good as Canon 5D but still impressive enough for its time, Nikon D7200 another outlier but the trend of the colours being worse and worse are actually seen with each generation of sensors brSo the dyes being cheapened out makes a lot of sense even from this aspect, why have 97 performance when you can have 80 and most people do not even notice? And you save 15 dollars off dyes, thats a lot of savings when you are selling hundreds of thousands of cameras each year

Pur possedendo una mirrorless abbastanza moderna come la Panasonic G9, alcuni mesi fa mi sono regalato una reflex Olympus E-5 che trovo più godibile; mi piace vedere attraverso un mirino ottico e posso sfruttare al meglio le ottiche Zuiko 4/3 che ancora possiedo brbrRecentemente ad un compleanno di 18 anni (il figlio di un mio amico) ho usato molto la G9 con ottiche fisse luminose come gli Zuiko 12mm, 45mm e 75mm ed il Leica 25mm f1,4 sfruttando molto la luce ambiente con l'aiuto di una piccola luce led montata sulla fotocamera brEppure non ho resistito e mi sono portato la vecchia e pesante Olympus E-5 e mi sono divertito con lo Zuiko 50mm f:2 macro ed il 150mm f:2 quasi sempre impostando 3200 iso brUna passata su Photo AI se proprio mi desse fastidio il rumore ed è stato bello alternare le due tipologie di sistema brbrPur avendo usato molto la Olympus E-1 di soli 5mp (sensore Kodak ccd) nei matrimoni quando avevo lo studio fotografico, costretto per un guasto alla successiva E-3, non ho riscontrato risultati davvero diversi, tanto da rimpiangerla brDevo ammettere comunque con Olympus anche solo scattando direttamente in jpg, ottenere ottimi risultati brBasta saper esporre brbrTrovo la Olympus E-5 la migliore per sfruttare al meglio i 12 mp che sono più che abbondanti per la maggioranza delle stampe brCon la E-1 ho stampato persino un 70x100 cm (un reale poster richiesto da una coppia di sposi) ed il risultato, osservando la stampa alla giusta distanza di osservazione, era davvero bello brSolo io, osservando la foto da molto vicino, notavo una mancanza di dettagliobrNella vita reale nessuno lo fa; del resto, si possono anche vedere i pixel di un ampio televisore guardandolo da vicinissimo 🤔brDi solito lo si vede ad almeno 2 o 3 metri di distanza seduti su un divano, per godersi tutta l'immagine 😉

I use a Nikon D40x with an 18 70 afs DX f35 f45 I have had it from 2010 I still love it
Comment from : @neilpiper9889

The push for mirrorless is a scam I've been doing photography since 1966, many of those years professionally (a *real*) professional Still have my HasselbladsbrbrBut these days, I'm returning to film with a Nikon F with the huge prismbrbrDigitally, it's a Nikon D200 I have a nice Leica C-Lux, but like digital music, digital imaging is just too harsh I've used a Nikon D3200 and hated it Sticking with the F and D200 The CCD sensor is much closer to film

Comment from : @lilmichael212

I just cant make the leap to new mirrorless I've used them but theres just something about classic DSLRs
Comment from : @___chief866

I had these into their heyday - K10D is still here, 2x 40D, D80 still alive & kicking Also had the A100, it was the direct Konica-Minolta Dynax 5D successor, after Sony bought all KoMi heritage & assets into 2006 What many ppl also don't know - the A850 & A900 24 MP FF DSLRs are true KoMi designs, but still, wasn't ready to release into 2006
Comment from : @marcp1752

I want a Sony A mount and a Nikon D600-810 one day I watch the price drop
Comment from : @TheBearOnHighway1

As a pro studio photographer, mirrorless only gives me one thing, and thats LV in real time I still have to take a test shot with a strobe, no better than a DSLR Also, the lenses of mirrorless cameras are as one of my colleagues said, just small photocopiers with no character He and all of my colleagues still use DSLRs and their better older lenses It's not about sharpness, but about colour, micro-contrast and rendering thats better And you can see it in the images
Comment from : @TechnikMeister2

I shoot Canon, but tht's irrevelant I used to live off portrait photography And as a photo teacher for MANY years I still shoot with old DSLR's A 5D MK2, a 6D MK1, a 70Dand an old EOS-M And a Lumix I LOVE the >DSLR's, the size, the feelingthe photos

Comment from : @FeedScrn

buy my first dslr in 2004 , the nikon d70 , and i have also a nikon d1 that one may still work i i get new battery , still to this day am using my 2 nikon d2x and d2h that i buy in 2008 , the d2x still produce grate photos , that camera just don't like the dark , images are to noisy pass 400iso and the grate thing about nikon is you can still use lents from the 60is since they have the same mount my current camera is 610 and also that one can use old lents no problem , iven my old film autofoucus lents will work on it ,
Comment from : @darkphotographer

Canon never produced a single CCD sensor DSLR camera, all of their models have used CMOS Obviously including the EOS 40D Out of the bunch you’re mentioning here the 40D is also the most competent both in terms of image quality and features such as autofocus and live view Can’t really see the point in shooting with these old cameras, except for budget reason, since they don’t give better IQ than later cameras and the 10 megapixel APS-C sensor certainly doesn’t offer any kind of sweet spot I agree that DSLR cameras still are relevant compared to mirrorless and I love my Nikon D4S and D810 But the camera manufacturers are only developing technology for mirrorless so it’s inevitable that DSLRs are going to start feeling really old in the next 10 years
Comment from : @Resebild

snappi baby !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Comment from : @georgedavall9449

It doesn't even have to be CCD, some many years ago I used to see people craved for DIGIC II era Canon, they are just different, I used to owned them and I still want to get more of them since my 1Ds2 bricked Their picture aren't rendered similar to DIGIC 4 and later Canon and for that reason people get them for portraits, only Fuji S Pro lineup are better at that or at least until mid 2010s must most likely to this day For me, I think Canon from DIGIC II era pictures also look somewhat more old stylebrbrFor me, I don't feel like CCD make a different but I like pre EXPEED Nikon picture somewhat more as it not look strangely bright at the same exposure like EXPEED era Nikon, their image look more natural D2X and D200 didn't look that different Old image processor is what I believe make these old camera appealing

My grandpa just gave me his k10d, beautiful camera and I like it more than my rebel xs

Полностью с вами согласен Я сам использую Pentax k20d, и он мне очень нравится Ещё есть Pentax K5 ll А ещё Хочу приобрести Pentax K 10D Желаю вам удачиbrTotally agree with you I use the Pentax k20d myself and really like it There is also a Pentax K5 ll I also want to buy a Pentax K 10D Wish you luck
Comment from : @flyfishing1110

The 1st digital camera I owned was a Kodak DX3500 purchased September 2001 Optical viewfinder, 22 MP CCD sensor, fixed 38mm FF equiv lens, but what beautiful images it made I have recently had numerous M43 and APS-C mirrorless cameras, but I am back to a Pentax K-5 II and I enjoy the concept of a lens hooked to a light proof box with a light sensitive device inside the box The owners manual even for this camera is way too many pages long, but any of the settings I need to change are just a button press away Having started my foto journey in the mid 1970's on an Olympus OM-1 and processing B&W in my own darkroon, I appreciate the K-5 II grip, 200 dpi 16x20 prints, IBIS, can mount some serious Pentax legacy glass and purchased used in like new condition with ± 1,200 shutter count for $270

Comment from : @alexeevlaw

12 MP D700 owner here! Love it!
Comment from : @daniel_913

I still have my ancient Canon 10D, with its 6MP CCD sensor Took a load of decent pics with it and legacy manual lenses Followed that up with a K10D / K20D from Pentax and those are still perfectly fine cameras today brEven the 10D is absolutely capable of filling a 10x8 print, and when you get into the habit of not shooting for crop but make every pixel in the camera count, it's easy
Comment from : @TheManFrayBentos

Canon 40 D is also not CCD senso?
Comment from : @DorotejČernela

DSLR Camera's are still great!
Comment from : @sainta2667

I got a Olympus E-420 from my older sister back in the day because: phone cameras have gotten betterbrbrBut I really like what I have 10MP is a reasonable resolution The compatibility with older m42 lenses via an adapter makes a great choice for taking shots brOverall the shutter never let me down, mirror works like the first day, display is bright, decently sharp and overall still a very good amateur camera in my opinion
Comment from : @mxrius1739

It is a sad thing that only Nikon still make a film SLR (F6) I bought a Nikon D80 DSLR for $100, but it had a 50mm F12 attached to it It was in flawless condition Now that was the best buy I ever made I have it on my BMD Pocket 4K with a focal reducer The Camera is a gem to use

The Canon 40D is a CMOS sensor, I still have mine, bought new when it first came out I also still have my Canon 10D, 20D, 5D MK3, and 2 Canon film cameras Rebel G and Elan7 I'm glad I've never got rid of them What's great about this are the Lens, they work on all of my Canon cameras Oh and I just bought the Canon 250D 😊 Great video!

Which website are you using for buying cameras
Comment from : @broke_man

I dunno man I bought an older Nikon DSLR a couple of months ago I have yet to actually use that brick in any real way Sorry, but after having run around with small Fuji bodies for years, these monsters feel like lugging some sort of household appliance Ergonomics include weight, IMO

Comment from : @SuperSanic

I seem to have fallen down a rabbit hole of 15 year old dSLRs and kit lenses from the same era brbrThere is something seriously wonderful about rocking combos that said "more money than sense", and "I have no idea what any of these buttons do" in 2007
Comment from : @robjimfleming4567

Do the A100 and A300 have the same output?? Cause I'm thinking of what am I gonna get between the two Thanks!
Comment from : @KioPadilla

As long as I only can afford around a Eos 400d with a kit lens and new lenses are still too expensive for me, DSLRs aren't dead to me They just take beautiful pictures 👍🏻😄
Comment from : @Adrianwe44

I acquired a Pentax K100D Super, brand new in the box, just a week ago It's a 6mp CCD from 2007'ish With the stock kit lens, I was glued to the outdoor pictures I took The K100D takes terrible low light pictures due to noise but good lighting? Wow It has become my WYSIWYG Camera: What You See Is What You Get I haven't bothered to edit photos in post brbrThe other two cameras I use are a Canon T6 and a Canon 77D These two take great pictures in similar situations But the CCD leaves me impressed I even bought an older compact camera w/ a CCD just to play around with it Simply fun straight out of the box
Comment from : @PublicWifi

Today i still use my Canon 400D from like 2006 Planning on buying a mirrorless in the future but for now im pretty happy with it
