While true I just go out of my way to avoid being associated with 90% of people who buy a Canon Rebel and call themselves a photographer, letting people know to message them for rates.

Had an issue shooting last weekend that I'm trying to figure out what was causing it. Again, most of my shooting is indoor volleyball this time of year, so as you can imagine, the lighting sucks.
In a string a shots, one photo would be washed out with really bad color, and the next would be a lot warmer with good color. This is all .jpg shots and continuous shooting.
Nikon D500
Nikon 70-200 vrii
Examples: Washed out: http://imgur.com/cZ47eac
Next shot in string: http://imgur.com/qSDgA6V
I tried playing with the lighting set ups in the menu, but still got the same results.
Any ideas?

2) Dial in the color temperature (if you know it)
3) Set manual WB
4) Shoot RAW

So, that lead me back to the lighting thing. But, this was in a convention center (Reno), so the lighting appeared to be the good old metal halide warehouse lights. If they had upgraded to LED, would that have affected the shots?

If nothing else this will light a fire up Canon and Nikon ass's to start innovating and producing a lineup that makes sense.

The electronic shutter has banding problems with lighting that will be at nighttime and indoor sporting events.
How about that buffer clear speed?
How much do Sony's telephoto lenses cost?
F-K-I-N L-O-L
I do agree that Canon and Nikon need to step up their game. Unfortunately, I think Fuji is going to end up merking Nikon. The KeyMission cameras are terrible and it's the type of mistake that puts companies out of business. Canon will be able to stay in the high end camera market because of their cinema cameras and cine lenses. If Canon ever needed the money they could release another "5D mark II."

Random reps to posters with good pics and info, you're welcome =)
So I started taking a bit of pics on my Huawei P9 Plus phone, but it's a phone. Pictures are chit compared to a camera.
My GF has an older Canon camera with lenses etc, but is rather old and pics are getting a bit grainy (were talking 8 years ish).
I've done some research myself, but it's a labyrinth for a newbie, especially considering bodies, lenses etc etc.
What are some good choices around 500$? In terms of quality and usability. Mostly thinking selftimer pics as well as random architecture pictures, a bit like Watts ITT (pleasure to see your IG and how it has evolved bro)

Now that the jig is up (and competing manufacturer have joined the game), its not something they would invest in (they really never did), especially now that they have expanded their cinema line.

hey brahs, apologies if its rude for me to just come in and ask questions but i was hoping you guys could help me out.
pretty interested to getting into photography, absolutely 0 skills and experience. i have been googling but all these opinions everywhere has got me so confused.
What are the top picks of camera and lenses for an absolute beginner to start out with? (i'm still a student with limited budget that is trying to save up)
Is photoshop the best application i should familiarise myself with as a beginner?
What are some reputable webs that have tutorials or guides for beginners to start out with? (I do not mind paying if it is actually helpful)
Thanks in advance brahs.

For example, you can start by stating what type of photography you're interested in. That can automatically give others some idea of the kind of camera you need to accomplish the task.
If all else fails, you can start with your budget. Just don't forget to include batteries and other peripheral equipment you may need.

The 5D mk ii cannibalized sales of more expensive pro camcorders Canon was selling. Canon has no interest in ever releasing another DSLR that can in any way compete with the more expensive bodies they sell. Canon wants money. The motion JPEG codec has to be transcoded due to the ridiculous file sizes. LOL workflow. That was done on purpose to force people to spend money on higher end camera bodies.

Had a good time today but I'm a hardcore noob, 90% of my pics today were unrecoverable due to being overexposed.

Good choice. I know some photographers are pretty good at covering action while changing lenses on a single body but I'm always paranoid about either missing a shot or dropping a lens. And of course if one body stops working you can keep shooting. Ditto for card failure.
Having two bodies either on some kind of dual camera harness or with one slung back over the shoulder with the vertical grip at your hip for quick access gives you the best chance of covering the fast paced stuff.
It's also worth mentioning that even though today's sensors offer resolution that is overkill for most of the wedding coverage giving you a lot more freedom to crop, in a church for example you'll often be shooting in crappy light without flash or off-camera lighting and at higher ISO cropping will reveal more noise so it's best to use the right lens for the job.
