    EOS-M. An act of fairness

    July 24, 2013 /

    While I have been highly critical with the Canon EOS-M street-photography performance, I have to admit that this little camera (coupled with the 18-55 stabilized kit lens) performs pretty well in landscape and, since the cost has fallen down to a very affordable level, is it possible to “risk” the camera in harsh places without worrying so much.

    Never Trust the Autofocus (not only) in Street-Photography

    July 20, 2013 /

    The more I practice the street-photography, the more I find myself more at ease with zone-focusing instead of trusting the camera auto-focus. This is, in my case, particularly true with hip-shooting where I can only “guess” what the camera is actually focusing. Though not a candid, this photo explains what I mean: the idea was to have the flowers and the small lamp in focus, but the actualization has been the exact opposite. My fault, of course, because I would have given a look at the viewfinder, but the point is that I didn’t feel like I had to since the AF will cares. Another skill I need, Kime apart,…

    The EOS-M just sucks

    July 18, 2013 /

    I made a point of staying clear of gearhead-oriented posts like: “x100s is better than M9” to focus on images and shooting only. In fact this blog only hosts two or three entries that talk about gear while the rest is dedicated to the exposure I catch. I want to break the rule again to provide an absolute subjective while definitive opinion of the Canon EOS-M: in one word (well, two, actually) it sucks. Thank to the ingenuity of Adriano Lolli, a pure genius, I have been able to couple my EOS-M with a Zeiss Sonnar 50 1/5, in the (lost) hope that by doing so I would have obtained…
