Picking up our quarter in a week! Very practical for us with two kids. May move to a half as the kids get a little older. Teenagers are always hungry.

Many of those Target customers are not returning, I’m certainly not. Time will tell if they turn into Sears/Kmart but they sell a wide variety of necessities. Disney has always been an entertainment luxury and tarnishing a luxury brand feels like a much bigger gamble.

$4 billion was market loss no? We won’t see the revenue hit until they publish the numbers but it may have far exceeded what they anticipated. The brand damage though will be long lasting (see Target).

Just got to put the RX1R iii in my hands and I have thoughts. It confirmed a few things for me for sure.

Andrew Sacoman @andrewsacoman.bsky.social · Aug 22

I’m going to have to try it, still feels limited compared to an A7CR on paper at least.

Andrew Sacoman @andrewsacoman.bsky.social · Aug 22

I feel like it doesn’t deliver on the promises. Small but not pocketable and worse battery life. Great image quality but a bad EVF and fixed screen. 4k30 video but no ibis. Decade old lens and no updated focus motors. At $5100 seems like a lifestyle luxury camera to compete with Leica. Am I wrong?

I use Luminar alongside Lightroom/Photoshop and it’s a great tool. Capable of extremely fast edits which is always appreciated.

Feels like it’s time for a new #RunTheJewels album. Listening to RTJ4 again and it goes so hard, I want more.

Can’t wait to head out on my trips this year and capture some more amazing photos to share with you all. Loads of YouTube videos coming as well. It’s going to be a fun rest of the year!

Andrew Sacoman @andrewsacoman.bsky.social · Mar 20

I’ve started to draw basic thumbnails when planning YouTube videos and I am forever grateful that I live in a time of computers and cameras. I can’t draw to save my life lol.

Haven’t done any low & mixed light work like that yet with it. I’d be interested to hear your thoughts on the iso performance in that setting. Also super jealous, haven’t seen a show at MSG before!

I hope you love the A7RV as much as I do. Can’t wait to hear what you think about the 50 f1.2. I’ve written it off since the 1.4 came out but maybe I should look at it again.

Jealous! Tracking all my teams to multiple go-lives at the end of the month while staring longingly at my camera on the desk. Can’t wait to be packing my own bag soon.

I follow your photography because you’ve got great attention to detail. We all do what we have to do because of life but here’s a kind reminder that your work is making it to new people like me who enjoy and appreciate it.

Hey #cosplay enthusiast I’m headed to #C2E2 next month! Doing a limited amount of mini photo sessions (15m, 1-2 edited shots) which are almost booked up. I’ve only got a few slots still available. Take home a stunning high-res photo of your costume from the con this year. DM me for details.

I was in a band for years when I lived in Denver and I loved playing out. Something about the interaction between the band and the crowd. You know how you can feel the energy from the crowd and the band feeds off of it? Your photos capture that vibe for me.

Andrew Sacoman @andrewsacoman.bsky.social · Mar 2

I should really get into concert photography at some point. I know it’s difficult to break into but I love live music so much every photo is take would be a love letter.

I had been looking at the 14mm but the 16 seems like the sweet spot. Plus the price makes it even more appealing.

Andrew Sacoman @andrewsacoman.bsky.social · Mar 1

Your work is very inspiring to photographers and solo creators like myself. I often feel like taking photos of myself is too much work but your photos really make me reconsider.

Andrew Sacoman @andrewsacoman.bsky.social · Mar 1

Seriously considering it or the 20mm for Astro on an upcoming trip. Do you have a preference between the two (local length notwithstanding)?

Andrew Sacoman @andrewsacoman.bsky.social · Feb 13

Yes the new tech is exciting but people need to get some perspective. Look at the market for an A7iii or a body like the A7Sii. These bodies go out of date fast and should be treated as the depreciating assets they really are. Glass on the other hand…

Photography fans check out Kristopher’s work. Some beautiful shots with nuanced lighting. Plus I saw the inside of a puffin’s mouth for the first time ever through his photo. He has less than 100 followers?! Show this man some love, easy follow!

Absolutely incredible shot and edit! After seeing this I must go to this place.

Andrew Sacoman @andrewsacoman.bsky.social · Feb 13

Well thank you, that’s very kind of you. I still feel like a novice most days especially when editing! It’s really exciting to know that I’ll look back on my work today and see how far I’ve come.

Andrew Sacoman @andrewsacoman.bsky.social · Feb 13

I’ll be shifting those pixels on my A7RV very soon for some landscapes in Moab. Constantly amazed at all the cool stuff this camera can do.
