>TLRs usually dont have great resolving power
This seems ignorant enough to be a Cruz post, but who can tell?
A 50 year old Tessar will outresolve any film you can find to put behind it by f/8.

>35mm is also 8x12, not 8x10
Yes, sherlock, but practically all paper is 8x10, frames are suited to 8x10, and any portrait orientation photo you take should be cropped to 4:5 anyway.

>>2784194
>you can do much better than 8x10 on 35mm
Cool man, please upload a colour 35mm film picture that's sharp and fine grained at 11x14.
Even a tripoded landscape photo on modern Ektar or Velvia would be fine, even though one didn't exist in the 90's and one would never be used for a wedding.

>>2784208
I have a Yashica-Mat EM, it doesn't outresolve any film you put behind it at f/8, it is lacking in resolving power in comparison to Mamiya lenses.

You can't ask someone for colour film examples then say paper practically only comes in 8x10.

Those guys shooting weddings on colour film were not printing black and white in the dark room.

RA-4 came and comes mostly on rolls, to which it was printed to. jfc.

Pro 160S, 160C, Portra NC and VC, Reala, Agfa Portrait 160. Take your pic.

They all have similar manufacturer stated resolving powers, well above what I get out of my A7s, regardless, I get a very clear 60+ lp/mm out of them, and a less clear but still resovled 80 lp/mm. More than my A7s. I have only not tried the Agfa in that lot.

There's also Astia, Provia, E100G, E100GX, etc.

Not even close, unless there's some kind of standard holder other than the ones I used to use. (The double-sided ones that fit into spring backs.)

The space this one has to fit into is pretty thin, and the holder would have to be custom-shaped to slide into the "rails" that hold it.

>>2784010
Yeah, the best local E6 (and everything else) lab in my area, just shut down last year.

Cool old photo guy ran place mostly at a hobby a few days a week, but decided to finally call it quits when the lab was bringing in massively less money than what he'd get from just being on retirement.

Now i got to use the other lab whose quality is a much more of a crapshoot (occasional scratches and streaks on negs), or send the slides to the good lab next town ower by mail, but they don't do sizes over 120 :V

>>2784231

>allot
It's not that it's "allot" it's that it's "allot" for what the camera is. For the uses and needs of most people, it doesn't hold up against a camera kit at a third of the price.

Most people don't stay wealthy by buying things that are three times more expensive than they need to be, simply because they can.

>>2782588
$4000 seems reasonable for the combination of high end full frame camera with top of the line fast wide angle lens, and that's before you factor in the leica premium.

>dog waiting at a crosswalk with no owner in sight
>hydrant in foreground, dog probably visited hydrant in his doggy dog daily world
>dog intersected by pole
>dog in "dog house" intersected by stoplight pole in the background
>corner of the car instantly gives the photo a feel of time and place
>everything seems to be facing left, like snoots on stoplight, shadow of street sign on white column, the car on the white, the electric pole leans to the left, all linear perspective points to the left. this gives a sense of "something's about to happen", which is especially reinforced by the dog looking left.

>>2784216

This one looks like your average Albuquerque yard.

>>2784220
Sounds like overanalyzing.

>>2784223

Read a book.

>>2784224
Good books don't have pictures in them jerkass

>>2784223
>>2784220
Whether it's overanalyzing or not, I experienced this photograph step-by-step and with some of his stated points I see reasons why I did this way.

I first looked at the right two thirds, then was guided straight to the house and there pushed to left. Not until then I saw the dog and I had to search for an owner, the roads are empty, however.

>>2783005
Not the guy you're responding to but I believe the aperture is fine, however, the other anon is right; the tree is holding this back. The subject matter is right on the first third but if the bokefied tree were totally in the last third, it would go some way to improve the image. Barring a crop, maybe try a portrait or angle change, Kind of a pain in the ass considering distance (178mm; you're far) and WILDlife.

>>2784128
Prolly a portrait if the back of the tree is that distracting.

>>2780611
Killing me with that horrendous inappropriate bokeh.

>>2783027
Pretty interesting picture but the contrast is so high it hurts.

>>2765278
>>2764106
I disagree. Context ruins it. It would be best purely as abstraction.

>>2783643
>>2783642
Really cool, but my assburgers can't get over the fact that there's splotches of chromatic noise in a black and white photo...
I assume that's not in the original

Fictions by Filip Dujardin is a cool series

since when did creative literally come to mean meme snapshit gimmick

>>2783637

i meant, there are a ton of stuff more interesting to research about photos than how does one simulate a floating light. its a special fx, a neat one, but just that, its surface level interesting.

>>2784131
Sorry, not an A7 owner, but I can say in general that I prefer a fast 35mm for any kind of casual use.

>>2784136
Shut the fuck up its a gear thread

About to bite on the NatGeo bag, Aliali best spot to grab one?

>>2784131
Since I'm a gigantic retarded poorfag I use adapted OM lenses.
The 50mm f/1.8 and 35mm f/2.8 are nice.

>>2784214
om 24mm f2.8 is the best of those generation lenses.
it can get up to $100 because of the hype.

>>2783129
>17-40 f4 L

No.
Horrible smearing in the corners. One of the worst L lenses in history.

>>2782582
16-35 f2.8 L or 11-24 f4 L.

put it in manual and literally never take it off manual, it will help you to understand what your camera is doing, and it will make getting the pictures you want a lot less frustrating after you get past the learning curve.
basically you have control over three main things
>shutter speed
>iso
>aperature
and you have to learn to balance these things to get the picture you want
also, you might want to make use of the autofocus when there is enough light for it like in your picture

>>2783458
Don't do this. This is retarded.

Learn priority modes so you can single out and experiment with one factor of exposure at a time.

Otherwise, all you're doing is learning to make a line line up with an arrow.

Bump because I'll know I'll have questions later

Thanks, will do.

I see the words "Learn composition you shitlord" all the time here. Is there any reading on composition should do to improve myself? Books, manuals?

>>2784130
Vinyl is also a lot easier to make than film.

>>2784143
There will be film. That doesn't mean every film manufacturer will find remain in the market. I'm surprised you didn't realise that when you were typing.

>>2784148
It doesn't matter about the difficulty, only the profitability. As long as there are some hipsters that are willing to pay, there will be businesses willing to supply.

The survivorship bias is strong in this thread.

>>2784130
I'm not so sure about this. Hard to say, but the surivival of vinyl (and to a lesser extent film) seems to be mostly rooted in nostalgia and retro aesthetics. And if we look to other, similar technological changes in history I can't really see film being around decades from now.

It's funny that people mention vinyl as an example of longetivity, because it's also on very wobbly legs right now. The lacquer needed for the electroplating used on the master record stamp is in extremely limited supply, and it only comes from two places in the entire world: a company in the United States, and an old Japanese guy in his garage (seriously). When that old guy dies, which he will, it could be a very real blow against any future production.
