modern mirrorless cameras are superb at night time photography
98% as good as full frame cameras
shoot with auto iso. go as low as u can with shutter speed. if u dont have a tripod, rest your camera on something.
if u are shooting a photo of one single thing, rather than a scene, buying a prime lens with a wide aperture will help… the RF 50 mm is one good choice for this.

shoot jpg + raw
if your camera has two card slots, use them both
do u have a speedlight???
this is a very good question.
i imagine that the physics of lenses and light play a part in this…
i wonder how much of this is a business decision?
i wanted to compare two of my better lenses… the tiny EF-M 32 mm f/1.4 and the very big and very heavy EF 85 mm f/1.2
i put the camera on f/4 and positioned the cameras so that they had approximately the same field of view of this $100 bill. I focused in the middle of Ben Franklin’s face.
i adapted the EF lens onto the M6 MkII: I wanted the same camera capturing the images. the angles of view may be slightly different. Contrast and sharpness? They look awful darn close to me.
The EF-M lens cost me a few hundred. the EF 85 cost me one or two thousand.

i like Flickr quite a bit.
Canvaspop and Mpix both have done nice work for me. I always get my stuff printed on canvas. Both companies have high prices but they will send u regular emails offering “% off” deals.
i prefer canvas prints with no frame… these are on a wall in my home

I did sports photography for two summers. Mostly high school age kids. 300 decent shots out of 1300? That was probably my percentage too…
i refuse to label what i do… i shoot photos of things i find interesting… or attractive.
consider reading these books to teach yourself.
Read this if you want to take great photographs by Carroll is pretty good
Stunning digital photography by Northrup is actually much better but longer.
the phrase “I am new to the photography game.”
get up early and shoot photos of sunrises…or of the very early morning golden light illuminating things.
thats what I do
am surprised they are being such hard asses about it.
you probably won’t damage it but every time u take a lens off, u increase the amount of dust you allow into the camera and onto the back part of your lens.
do you own more than one lens??
Dunning-Kruger is all over the place in Reddit photography communities!!
have a gander at the Fujifilm subreddits.
you didn’t ask this… but as someone susceptible to having his fingers go numb, i wanted to share this.
Consider getting heavy gloves that will allow you to still operate your camera.
i got a pair of these, which are fine all by themselves for days with 40 to 50 degree weather. the fingers allow u to use the touchpad on the back of a camera or a cellphone
i didn’t buy any of their outer layer mittens… i have an old pair of generic photography mittens that allow me to fold the fingers back to operate controls. I wear the thin liner gloves underneath the mittens. Fold the mittens back over fingers when not actually shooting.
you must have a strap on your camera.
this guy is a fantastic teacher…
