I Was WRONG About the Best Light in Photography!
Since an early age, November has been the time of year that press me into sad thoughts. When I wake up at 8 in the morning, I don’t feel grateful for the arrival of a new day; instead, my mind is filled with the worst curses, because it’s as dark as if I’d woken up at 3 a.m. During the day, it never gets sunny. The light remains dull, and by 4 p.m., it’s already starting to get dark. Every year, I get sick during this time and feel physically exhausted overall. By late August each year, I can no longer fully enjoy the summer, as the shadow of the cold, dark monster already looms.
I’ve been searching for a way to embrace November. The first hint came from The Selfish Giant by Oscar Wilde: “...

Great topic, well covered, decent audio, acceptable edit, pleasant to listen to with coffee here in the early morning hours in my place. Would suggest improving your background scene a bit, but otherwise, you did it, you pressed record, then publish, then upload. More than most people ever get done. Bon RUclips Voyage,

    Personally I "cycle" my gear. Every few months or so I choose a few cameras I'm not using and sell them, then use the money to upgrade the gear I'm actually using (like for example I'm upgrading from a Canon EOS 500D to an 80D soon because I'm selling a couple things). I like to think it's a good way of handling GAS lol

    What a great reflection. I always buy second hand and I think a lot about whether I really need new equipment. I would like to change my Canon DSLR equipment to Sony mirrorless, but I know that it is a whim and it will not allow me to do many more things than I already do. (I don't work in photography). My last purchase was a Sony RX100 VI and it allows me to take it where I would not take a large camera. By the way, very good quality of the video and story

      Thank you very much! It means a lot, because it's my first video. How do you like RX100 VI? I would be a bit worried about the 1" sensor, how does it perform?

      @@kalistratov_photos I did an ISO and sharpness test comparing the Sony RX100 VI (20MP 1") and the Canon 2000D (24MP APS-C), here's a summary. ISO: In any ISO range, the Sony has one stop more noise (S 3200 = C 6400) From ISO 125 to 400 it's not bothersome, from 800 to 3200 it's a bit bothersome and at 6400 there's too much noise, 12800 isn't even a reasonable option. This includes using Lightroom's Denoise AI from ISO 400 onwards. Sharpness and resolution: The Sony is the same or slightly sharper than the Canon with the 18-55 and 55-250 lenses even with fewer megapixels throughout the focal range. The problem comes when increasing the ISO. At ISO 800 the Canon is sharper than the sony. I guess the sony has a little less dynamic range but I haven't noticed anything. What I've learned: If there is enough light to shoot at iso 100 or 200, both cameras work the same. When taking exposures longer than 1s, the sony has to process the photo after taking it, in 30 second photos it takes considerably longer than the canon which is prepared for BULB mode (both RAW). I hope I've helped you
