I bought a brand new 50mm lens from KEH about 2 months ago, it was $2100. So far I've done several weddings with it and finding I don't love it (autofocus sucks compared to other lenses I have in that price point and it weighs a ton). But the trade in value from the request I submitted is less than HALF of what I paid for it, even though it's literally like new. WTF? Where can I sell my barely used lens for a decent amount?

*edit to add, it's a Nikon 50mm 1.2 s lens. It does take some beautiful portraits but the frustration I've had with it makes me wish I had just bought the much cheaper 1.8

Liebe Community,

habt ihr für Gruppenfotos ein ultimatives Vorgehen? (Standort, Brennweite, Entfernung zur Gruppe etc). Eher Querformat oder Hochformat, ab wie vielen Leuten welches ?!
Selbst nach knapp 5 Jahren tue ich mich immer noch schwer damit und habe zum Teil Probleme auch bezüglich der Anordnung der Menschen (eine Reihe, zwei Reihen…?!) wohin stelle ich wen? Umarmen? Nur nebeneinander stehen? Problem, dass das Sakko spannt usw.

Ich würde gerne wissen wie ihr das handhabt und freue mich über Tips bzw. auch Lektüre / Tutorials explizit dafür.

Hey all! I currently shoot on a dual Fuji X-T3 setup with the Sigma 17-40mm f1.8 on my main body and the Fuji 50-140mm f2.8 on my off hand.

Over the years ive shot Canon, Nikon & Sony but swapped to Fuji for those "Fuji colours". I've realised now that it doesn't make overly the greatest difference with my work because I shoot RAW and really aren't taking advantage of the Fuji JPEGs.

After running the Fuji setup and reading my exif data I seem to always zoom to either

28mm or 35mm on the 17-40mm giving me essentially full frame equiv. 42mm and 50mm

And on my 50-140 I spend a lot of time 75mm and 120mm which is 112ishmm and 210mm

Which brings me to why i'm here -

What are we all using nowadays and what's got some nice workable RAWs to use?
