Your feedback is welcome.
That's kind of normal, isn't it?

The 2013 Lumix vs 2013 Sony is interesting. Often the Sony white balance looks cooler than the the Pana. Once in a while they swap places. Both have very decent image quality and would be quite useable today. Does Pana make their own sensors? If so, they did a good job competing with Sony.
Got a kick out of the mini figurines. One even is even using a camera. Great fun.
Thanks,

Thank you very much for your input and comments, which are rather rare on this forum š
The secrets surrounding the sensors have always been a mystery to me, rumors and what will people say. šµāš«
I have often used figurines for my focus and depth of field comparisons
Or simply to test a new camera, as in this case:

They have the advantage of not moving. š
Looks like she is using either a Polaroid SX 70 Sonar with electronic flash bar or the SLR 680. I remember selling the SX 70 at my first job. Yep, she isn't moving muchš.
I enjoy your posts and read them when time permits. Is there one digital camera you enjoy shooting with the most? Do you also collect film cameras?
Thanks,
barondla
You're right, it's definitely one of the two models.
I have a few SX 70s in my Polaroid collection

I still really enjoy taking pictures with my Nikon D500. šš¼
Yes, I collected film cameras from 1973 to 1996. But since 1996, I've focused exclusively on digital cameras.
I spent a great deal of time looking at all the cameras. Fun reliving a bunch of these and meeting many I was unaware of. Love the collage. Did you keep the film camera collection or dispose of it to start the digital collection?
Thanks for sharing,
barondla
Thank you very much for your feedback, I would say that 99% of people on the internet who consult don't give any comments.
Since 1996 and my interest in digital photography, I have completely stopped my film photography collection.
And I must admit that with the passing of time, and my 30 additional years. My collection is starting to become a burden. šµāš«
For now, I have kept all 1042 of my cameras.

Hi,
So, in digital terms, you had to add an 11th bit (after 1023). But you are still a long way from needing 12 bits (2048). ;)

I'd prefer to go back to 7 or 8 bits š¤
From ChatGPT ā¦
š Number of levels = 2āæ (where n = number of bits)
Therefore:
Bits Possible Values āā(2āæ)
1 bit 2
2 bits 4
3 bits 8
4 bits 16
5 bits 32
6 bits 64
7 bits 128
8 bits 256
9 bits 512
10 bits 1024
11 bits 2048
12 bits 4096
Hi,
Don't forget to subtract one from each value. Zero is a significant number here. So, you don't get 2 with a single bit. You get 0 and 1. To get to 2, you now need 2 bits. After which, you can get a shave and a haircut. :P

The meaning of ChatGPT's "values" may have been misinterpreted. Or maybe I have misinterpreted the above.
For example, a single bit is 0 or 1, i.e. two possible values, 2 bits have four possible values, et subs.
Pardon the pedantry ...
Hi,
Correct. But Zero is a value. So, 0 and 1 for one bit. To get a value of Two, you need two bits as in 10. And now you can also get to a value of Three as in 11.
So, you see a value of 256 for 8 bits in that chart, whereas you would max out 8 bits to get to 255. Or FF in Hexadecimal, Base Sixteen, which is what we usually use for this work rather than Base Ten. Hence why I said to subtract one from each number in the chart to reflect how it actually works. ;)

I'm not English speaking person, but :)
For me the statement above means "count of distinct values", which is certainly correct. If instead it means "maximum value", then yes, we have to subtract one.
