A place to politely discuss the tools, technique and culture of photography.

This is not a good place to simply share cool photos/videos or promote your own work and projects, but rather a place to discuss photography as an art and post things that would be of interest to other photographers.

How to get the spark back (alien.top)

I used to love photography. Started out with a canon 50d and loved that camera and took it everywhere we went. Got some amazing photos thoughtout my time with it and had a blast. Really got into photography from seeing people on social media and YouTube. Photography was a huge reason for us to go out and explore areas. Found out i was actually pretty good at photography. Switched to a few sony mirrorless cameras and it seemed since the switch I lost my spark with photography. Really hated the sony platform and the camera was really small feeling in my hands (a6000). Recently sold all my sony gear and thinking going back to canon. I even have a samsung s22 ultra phone for the camera ability and only use it here and there for quick shots. I also found my dad's old sears film camera and started thinking about having it cleaned to start messing with it. Those that fell out of the hobby and got back in, what did you feel helped?

Stick with Leica glass for Leicas. I’ve had 2 Voightlanders and a Zeiss for m mount and they went back or sold immediately. I’ve got 9 Zeiss ZE primes for Canon, so I love the rendering. Now also 9 Leica lenses that I also adapt to the R5s. I’m about to try the Zeiss on a X1D2.
