      You fool! The Oppenheimer film and GxAce videos are art-less, meaningless trash created by people with the aesthetic sensibility of a wet sponge! The Barbie movie on the other hand -- move aside Shakespeare, Kubrick, Velázquez because there is TRUE ART that speaks to the human condition on so many highly significant levels!

    • @johnsmith1474
      @johnsmith1474 10 месяцев назад +3

      No, they are not, because the still PHOTOGRAPHY in them is poor, weak, insubstantial and does not stand on it's own. Therefore the production lacks integrity, is false, and lacks integrity. It's the form of propaganda we know as advertisement. You are cued up by the music to not SEE, a really unfortunate, though common, error. You have only an average eye.

    • @SingularityEngine
      @SingularityEngine 10 месяцев назад +1

      @@johnsmith1474 Interesting. Could you elaborate? I'm a film scholar myself so I know a lot about persuasive cinematic tools. GxAce is clearly forming a more stylized content signature than many other photographers on RUclips, and I think it would be a poor choice of words to call it " poor, weak, insubstantial" just because the production is heightened by music or narrative. Besides, people have different tastes in photos.

    I bought the Q when it was first released years ago; and it has been a charm. I too would crop post when needed. When the cash flow picks up, I will definitely trade up to the Q3. I had a day when my cap kept falling off on a walk; so, I bought a foam cap that covers most of the lens: and this seams like a natural solution. The foam goes in my pocket, and then it is stiff enough that it slides right on, and protects most of that magnificent lens. You are the best! ❤

    The original Q was a dream camera for me since around it's release, which is when I first learned about Leica as well. I was finally able to find a good enough deal on a used Q to justify to cost about 6 months ago; and the camera is everything I dreamed it would be. It rarely leaves my side, and I will likely never let it go.

    Hi GxAce, i adore your editing style and recently I've been messing around with textures for video and photo. I found that applying a black frame with a slight feather over the images with the "Classic Color Burn" blend mode in After Effects creates this burnt away edge that looks like the image edge on a film frame border, it allows highlights to bleed out the edges slightly in a really natural way. I think premiere and resolve both have options to do something similar as well, Idk if you'll like that but I thought it looked really cool and would fit in with how you present your photographs.

    I've got a lot more modest of a setup. Canon RP plus sigma art 35mm 1.4. Does the job for me. When you only bring one lens, you do forgo choice.
    I take pictures of birds and wildlife though, so having a choice to use a telephoto on different outings even with the small camera is nice.
    I've used the X100 before, and I even had the chance to get the 2010 one for a measly 200 dollars, but I passed it up. Hopefully someone else is loving it right now.
    Like you say, all cameras are good enough. Focus on the lens that does what you need, and go spend your time taking photos. Your camera is better than Ansel's.
