It ends when you decides it ends. I rediscovered a photo I took a couple year ago and I thought it was decent. Then I remembered my hating it because my camera is shitty and makes a bunch of grain. I tried to find some bullshit ai app to try to fix it but it didn't work. Now I like the roughness of it.

>>4311418
It actually ends when you have a very nice camera, and a very shit camera. The gulf between the two will make you appreciate each.

Don't fall for the film meme that just starts a whole other gearfaggotry quest full of cope because the sunk costs only grow and there are no refunds.

>>4310724
It never ends. You will eventually find something like >>4310799 said. But what happens then is that your style of shooting will change, or your hobbies outside photography will change, or your subject matter will change and then you'll start the whole process over again. It really never ends, learn to enjoy it and only buy what you can afford to lose 30% of your money on.

It's either that or start shooting film.

>>4311427
lets be real "normal" interchangeable lens cameras fit everything you could do perfectly well and it takes borderline schizophrenic neuroticism like "everyone can see my camera because it has a viewfinder bump and its ruining my shots and it looks so much bigger on pxlmag" to convince yourself otherwise

Lumix GX8 is cheaper and weather-sealed with dust and splash proof when paired with appropiate lenses and gives you more than decent quality photos
https://www.m43lenses.com/

>>4305995
Not one singe “weather sealed” camera, even pentax and nikon, comes close to the olympus tough

ALL weather sealing allows some water to enter. It just means your camera dies in years, not hours.

just use your phone

It is, wanting a "soft" lens for any subject is a meme for people high on fucking copium or deliberately wanting a visibly soft image not in focus. Usually for some meme artsy shit.
If you stop over baking images with post-process sharpening which literally highlights subtle textures and draws rings around it, "local contrast" which emphasizes any redness or gradients, and any other form of "slider" that retards who use Adobe software use all the time, you want a sharp lens.

Optical sharpness is the goal. Always has been, always will be.
Stop applying fake sharpness and you'll see how soft optics usually are, and then you'll be able to appreciate TRUE sharpness, from sharp glass, when you can simply not apply the fake shit.

There's literally no such thing as too sharp.
All instances of such a thing (and I mean ALL) where people even reference lenses being "too sharp" are always from retards looking at baked images. They're usually using Adobe software with sliders cranked up (defaults, btw) or they have sharpening enabled that they're not even aware of like with Adobe's "capture sharpening" bullshit that they might be oblivious to.
Everyone crying about stuff being too sharp is always busted for being an overbaked faggot if any research is done.
For example, anyone using dehaze/"local contrast"/curves/enhancements.

for a normie, it will shit in lowlight without using the built in flash or tripod. the upside with the D80 is with an SB-600, off camera flash with the commander mode is where it shines, aside from having muh 'CCD' sensor.

I got a Lumix TZ110 and love it. Fixed screen so selfies the olde fashioned way, but not something I'd ever do. Oh, you can put it on something and control it from your phone, but that's not exactly spontaneous.
Good price, shoots RAW, really nice pics, fits in a pocket.
I use a Magfilter to attach a polarising filter.
Not sure what else to say, it's just a great wee camera.

i actually prefer the look of images taken with a7iv sensor.

a good/bad lens makes or breaks the image quality but no matter which lens you put on a1, the images always look digital/robotic... idk how to explain it. they look like AI made them

OP here, I got a better deal at the store on an open box A7RV so I went with it instead of the A7IV. So far I am pretty happy with my choice, I'm going camping this weekend so I'm taking it alongside the 16-35 2.8 and 70-200 2.8 GM to do some astro and landscapes.

The AF is what has impressed me the most, that AI chip really works even when my subject looks away. I have a black dog and it still manages to keep the AF on its eye surrounded by black fur. The files seem great, heard that the AI chip in this helps nailing white balance and desu I've not had to manually tweak it in Lightroom. I've also shot photos of people and the skin tones seem fine, no ugly shift to yellow or green or magenta. I'm using a few profiles in LR to see what works the best.

I'm also looking forward to picking up the smaller 1.4 primes down the line as well. I've got zero interest in carrying around that huge Nikkor or Cannot 1.2's so I think Snoy's approach of getting good enough optically and fixing the rest via software is good for most normies like me.

Nothing really retarded stands out to me yet- menus are fine, probably if you want to customise everything then you'll not like it but I find it alright.

Yeah I know it’s bad. I’m just fucking around with foreground/background blur from extreme distance differences and its impact on the outcome of the photo.

Neither one of these are going to be printed or published. It’s just to start a discussion of what the role of a foreground should be. A frame for the background? What if it’s the subject instead? Or is anale Adams the best answer of “fuck it everything is in focus”
Which aesthetic choice do you like better? Which do you use? Can you provide examples with pictures you’ve taken?

You know nothing.
When a JPEG image is corrupt, no application will open it. You need special software to repair the file as it is a heavily compressed format reliant on decompression to deliver the pixels. If something in the chain breaks, the file is "bricked" from normal programs point of view, but recovery software can detect where errors rise and you can replace bad data to fix the problems.
A few bad bits can brick a JPEG. Fixing those bits will fix the file, you might lose some 8x8 blocks but the rest can be fine. GIMP won't help with this. GIMP is what you'd use after repair to then edit out the missing blocks to fill in the missing pixels.

>>4310786
so far he knows more than you since he's actually recommended software that is free of charge and by your own admission is able to fix busted jpegs

>>4304301
Try photorec. It might not be able to fix it but it will definitely be able to find a copy of the file within the disk that was temporarily created while moving or editing or viewing since all the software creates temp versions of files while accessing it. Chances are that at least one of the recovered copies might not be damaged

>>4310787
I know English is not your first language, but consider using a translator.
GIMP does not fix busted JPEGs
GIMPO NO EL FIXO LA JPEGGOS PUTA MADRE

GIMP won't even open a busted JPEG. It just gives you an error.

Nikon Electronic Format (NEF) supports lossy compression and some of their cameras have only supported that lossy output.
