RM50,000 camera – what does it look like?

by pip | Posted on

This is the moment I’ve been waiting for a very long time. My buddy Lu Jia Chen Photography (https://web.facebook.com/LuJiaChenPhotography/) had exclusive access to a 50k camera. This monkey is a prime example of how an excellent camera in the hands of a noob, can make amazing shots (also proven by Linus Tech Tips in their fun shootout video on YouTube).

Haha.. ok lah, Jia Chen’s photos are decent as he knows a bit about composition, exposure, manual settings and bokeh. BTW, I’m thinking of investing RM1500 in a XT-2. Tell me what you think. Now on to the main course of this little nugget, the EXIF data that will make pro photographers DROOL

Lord have mercy. Christ have mercy. Lord have mercy.
Uncompressed, this baby is 292.5 MB in resolution (that’s the correct term)
This is what we are looking at (compressed to 960 x 720)
1 for 1 crop, JPEG maximum quality file (click for larger)
Delicious head shot 1 for 1 crop

Alright, there is a lot to unpack here. The quality is definitely top notch. Here’s the same shot from my Huawei Leica P20 camera phone
