  1. Hey fellow #photographers I have a quick request.

    #ThinkTankPhoto is a popular online store for #camera gear. I have several of their bags in my kit, and they've always been high quality and well designed.

    Unfortunately they've decided to start a #substack and I'm guessing they have no idea why that's a bad idea. I sent them an email asking them nicely to reconsider that platform, pointed at my ordeer history and linked articles on their #nazi connections.

    Please take a moment to do the same.

  2. Weird ask.

    The musicians on fedi have a sort of backstage where we talk sometimes. Not everyone, of course, but many. It is a Discourse server called The Social Music Network, focused on helping promotion of indie music and artists. Many great things have been built out of that space.

    The ask: Is there a similar hangout for indie #visualArtists of the fedi? #Painters, #photographers, #digitalArtists, #illustrators?

    I have an idea I'd really like to vett among those people.

  7. Dear #photographers have you seen the new #UK pamphlet telling people not to take public photos? It strangely then seemingly links *all* public photography with sexualized photography and then tells you to report any photo taken of you in public to the police (because they're not busy enough?)

    Note: if you're in the UK, consider writing to someone in your area about this messaging.

  21. So what does the #FujiFilm #photographers on Fediverse have to say about XF16-80/4 vs XF16-55/2.8 mark I?

    I thought I had made a decision to get the 16-80, but with falling prices for 16-55 after the launch of mark II I tried it in my local shop yesterday. And it felt really well balanced on my X-H1.
