Re: [RBW] Cameras for Biking

Aye, Eric, friction between riding and photo is a thing. For me the equation is complicated by the technical trails I ride, necessitating a mirrorless camera be in a protective case inside my bike bag. But, because of a number of factors, the form fitting leather case I got is not usable with t

iPhone. I can activate the camera from the lock screen by pressing on a screen iconStill involves looking at the screen and long pressing on the right spot, which is too hard to do while riding. –Eric N > On Jun 11, 2020, at 12:46 PM, Christopher Cote > wrote: > >  > I don't know what

Re: [RBW] Cameras for Biking

I don't know what phone you're using, but with my Pixel 2, double-pressing the power button brings up the camera, even if the phone is locked. Pressing the - volume button takes a picture. Easy to do while riding. Most of the other phones I've owned allow similar shortcuts to bring up the camer

Re: [RBW] Cameras for Biking

Amen! There’s a design concept called “friction” that seeks to make things as easy as possible (for instance, “Buy It Now” buttons on web sites). For me, this is directly applicable to photography while riding: If I have to do more than about three things to get to the point where I can take a p

Re: [RBW] Cameras for Biking

I love the micro four thirds system too. I'm a fan of the Panasonic GX line (small form with built-in viewfinder). I have the GX1 and then upgraded to GX8. It peaked there with the weather resistant body and was downgraded with the GX9. The 20mm f1.7 lens is fantastic. It has a great walk forw

I love Micro four thirds! Get the Panasonic 20mm f1.7 lens. I get so many compliments on my photos from it. Just like Rivendell bikes, on paper, looking at the technical specs only, micro four thirds cameras don’t seem that great. They’re not technically “the best.” But, when you get your hands

[RBW] Cameras for Biking

I bought an Olympus E-M10 Mark iii camera last winter, and have already acquired a little collection of lenses, including the "prime trio" of 17, 25, and 45mm F/1.8 (35, 50, and 90mm equivalent in 35mm) lenses. I love the image quality, real "bokeh" (as opposed to the fake bokeh you get with fan

[RBW] Cameras for Biking

I consider myself to be someone who likes trailing-edge reliable tech. I spent many years happily snapping away with my canon film SLR. I’ve had various iterations of Canon digital SLRs.. some even use my 15-year-old lenses. I bought a Samsung mirrorless camera years ago and even put aside my DSL

I recommended Canon before. Sony's great, but they're $. This one is good, and you can collect lenses, and if you crunch it by accident it's not the end of the world. https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1321345-REG/canon_eos_m5_mirrorless_digital.html -Kai -- You received this message be

[RBW] Cameras for Biking

I've no longer a mobile phone and thus no longer have the incorporated camera and it's happy ability to take a burst of photos after a set delay of 20 seconds or so. Kai kindly recommended Sony, and in my research I ended up finding the simplicity of mirrorless, which presumably means heartier (
