Ordinary Day [Playing with my Camera]

in photography •  7 years ago 

Last spring, I was in cyclo tour around Austria, mostly in Salzkammergut region on the far north of the country. This part of Upper Austria is home to some amazing nature, beautiful mountains and more than 100 lakes in the relatively small area.

In the morning when I was leaving, sudden snow covered lake and surrounding mountains. While I was climbing my way out of the valley, this was the last time I had a view of the lake before I entered clouds.

I hope you will enjoy in these photos as much as I enjoyed taking them.

I have never used a mirrorless camera but have noticed they produce some great quality images, this one is no exception, colour is fantastic. I have used DSLR's for years, I guess I just like the weight factor in them. I find light cameras tend to make me shake a little.

I choose this camera mostly because of weight - I hike and cycle a lot, and I am not exactly young anymore, so any weight on my back is noticeable on my knees at the end of the day ;) In 0.5 kg I can pack a camera with small prime and one telephoto and all small bits, like filters, remote, battery... which is less than a weight of a DSLR body. I compared the quality of photos with Nikon 7200 and I could not find any differences.
When using mirrorless, there is that feeling that you are using compact, and it is true that you must be careful since it is easy to make shaky photo because the camera is so light, but after some time you get used to it. Now, when I took my old Canon or when my friends ask me to use their big DSLR's, I feel like I use a baseball bat instead of a toothpick ;)

@dejan.vuckovic its really a pretty there, I have been to Austria but not this particular place. Need to visit it on my next trip to Europe.

All I will tell you in favour of visiting this area is - I am going there again this spring. And I never go to the same place two years in the row. Until now ;)

well then I think I definitely have to go there! I hope you enjoy it!
