    • For years now, the EF 35-350 has been near the top of my "will I or won't I" pile.  So far, still "won't I," but one of these days, i'm gonna get a wild hair to search and find a great deal..
    • There are actually good answers to the 10x question for each FF mount. Sigma 20-200mm is an answer for E mount and L mount. Sony has their own 24-200mmm too. Nikon have a 10x near miss with their 24-200mm and an over the top 14.2x 28-400mm. Canon has their 24-240mm too and if you don’t mind mimicking trombone playing while zooming then their old 35-350mm EF is a great bargain. I actually have one of the latter and the range is great.   
    • It absolutely feels like a modern Super 8! Especially when you pair it with Magic Lantern to shoot raw video, slap on a vintage C-mount lens, and add some heavy grain in post. The workflow is quirky and slow, but that’s honestly half the charm - it forces you to shoot more intentionally, just like actual film. One random but massive headache with this setup is sorting out custom aspect ratios and cropping thumbnails or cover art for projects if you're trying to match that classic 4:3 or square retro look perfectly. If you don't want to mess around with heavy Photoshop templates just to resize a quick reference image or profile shot for a project, a simple online tool like Visaphoto works surprisingly well. It’s technically an automatic passport photo cropper, but it's great for instantly forcing any image into exact dimensions and pixel constraints with clean compression without having to open an editor. Definitely keep shooting with the M. For the price, nothing else gives you that organic, textured aesthetic quite like it.
    • I think the niche aspect is actually a strength. The best documentaries often pull people into worlds they knew nothing about beforehand. From the comments alone it sounds like the film has strong characters and a genuine sense of place, which usually travels further than the subject matter itself. I'd definitely explore the festival route and maybe even a shorter cut for online release later on.
    • If that is the case, it’s a stupid tactic. If sales had begun within 7 days, I would have bought one. As things now stand, unlikely to any time soon, if at all. Now the dust has settled, I think I’ll wait it out a while and get my S9’s audio fixed. Then it’s a case of keep the fixed S9 until such time as an S9II comes up, preferably with the S1Rii sensor, but probably unlikely, or flip to a third S1Rii which would also make sense. But any impulse buy for an L10 has passed as it will have done for others. And as for the great unwashed, they won’t be sitting around waiting but will simply buy something actually available.
