>>4331464Apple is for poorfags. I'm sorry you have to cope over this, but it's for poorfags. Poor people buy apple. It's just what they do. All of the lower class, all of the sub-90 IQ score retards, the people who struggled to get a GED or didn't even get one, all of the worthless potheads, drug addicts, and criminals rolling around in clapped out caddies whenever they weren't in jail, a 1 bedroom apartment, or a single wide trailer, all saw apples advertising on the bar TV and some shit "studies (surveys) show apple users are loaded and handsome" articles in wired (totally real and not paid off btw) while they were waiting at the child support office, and they thought"yknow i should get me that shit so people know i aint all that bad"And so they all bought apple. Constantly. Apple responded. They made the SE. They went from "THE iPhone" to multiple iphones targeting different price points. They started their own financing biz. And apple rolled in irresponsible poorfag cash. Every cletus, jamal, and jose in the $30k and under income bracket financed an iphone and a macbook air.Now whenever you flash the fruit in public most people who see it assume you're a broke bitch trying to hide it. Just like when people see a used mid-2ks cadillac. You're old, or you're poor! Then you come here and accuse people who own $13k gaming PCs, live in mcmansions, and post snapshits with $10k camera setups that don't make them a dime (and they don't care), and say >you guys must be too poor for a macAnd we're like nah. And you just repeat it. And repeat it. And repeat it. "Coping poor, keep coping, poor poor poor"But no matter how much you say it, the poor won't unstick from you until you ditch the smartphone and laptop equivalent of a used cadillac. I'm sorry. That's just how it is.Apple is for poorfags. And I derive a lot of satisfaction from telling you, because I sorta miss interrupting apple sois flashing my bank balance IRL where they couldn't "c-c-trl plus i!" cope.
>>4334860with how many bugs and build quality issues apple's been plagued with since jobs died i'd compare it to a used buick myselfandroid's a used cadillac. it gets nice new things before the used buick.

So, i'm really into the gritty b/w photography of Moriyama, particularly his late 80s ish work but generally a fan of his. I like film but understand it's antiquated nature not necessarily being beginner friendly. Regardless should I just cop any digishit or decent compact film cam(like Olympus M2), in the moriyama spirit or would getting a reliable camera like a ricoh GR serve me better long term? I have bad experience with a Konica Big Mini that just up and died on me. Also how expensive is the process of producing your own film/negatives? If anything putting everything into the post production/negatives would help me better in the long term?[EXIF data available.

>>4334884I think he used a really shit Ricoh digital point and shoot zoom for a while too. Just get some junk like that with a working flash and the rest is PhotoShop.
>>4334884Dude just takes trash photos that somehow work because he captures a "I never stopped playing RapeLay after I turned 14" aesthetic, which makes it inherently more interesting and intriguing than the photos of 99% of people.So get a trash camera. Search "Ricoh GR" on ebay and take your pick.

>>4334952The cheapest one. Imagine you are living in the middle of tokyo and struggling to afford rent, cigarettes, and booze simultaneously. If you can not afford a ricoh gr, you will have to get another awful camera. Don't sacrifice your sake budget.

I want to start processing B&W at home but don't know where to start. What tank do I buy? What about developer; Rodinal, D76, XTOL, etc? What's the best develop/stop/fix kit out there? Are bleachers/wetting agents necessary? Do I need a darkroom or can I just do everything in a changing bag? TLDR: I just want a grocery list and rationale for each item.

>>4334891Get at least a two reel Paterson tank so it can fit 120, and a large changing bag/tent. Chemistry for bw is pretty interchangeable so go with whatever is cheapest or easiest for you to acquire, just to get used to the process, and any fixer. Stop bath isn’t absolutely required and neither is a wetting agent. Bleach is more of a colour thing as well. The trickiest thing will be getting used to loading the film more than the dev process itself. Might need a film picker as well if you want to save/reuse your canisters.TLDR, dark bag, 2 reel tank, cheap developer like rodinal, fixer, done.
>>4334944Thanks, I'll probably get a Jobo 1520 since I heard the Patersons have some leakage. Is a stop bath only required if I'm using more concentrated developer ratios? And will the bleach improve contrast? Blix recommendations would be great as well. >film picker I'm not enough of an autist to implement bulk loading into my diet.
>>4334951Patersons dont have leakage if you use the spin to win stick and just develop with the top off. Hate inversions. Most autistic thing I've ever done.But yeah fuck paterson.
>>4334951You could use bleach for black and white for contrast adjustment, sure, but why do you feel the need to? It’s pretty uncommon and It’s probably the last way I’d pick to address that. Either adjust contrast when you print, or in software after you scan. Did someone tell you it’s part of the process or something?

Hey guys, so I'm an amateur street photographer, and I'm trying to achieve a fisheye effect, as you can see.The matter here is that I can't get the same effect that the Windows Photos app gives to raw wide photos (like the 3rd one). In my attempt, I created the 1st image, but the Photoshop lens correction doesn't achieve the same effect. as it expands the center, unlike the Windows algorithm, and it also loses information from the edges. Plus, the black corners don't blend/blur with the image. How would you guys achieve that effect?English is not my mother tongue, so please excuse me if I'm not explaining my ideas quite well. I hope you can help/advise me.
>>4333136Windows 10 looks like shit though.
>>4332855>I think I want a diagonal fisheye for this effect?You should just post an example image of the look you want to acheive.
>>4333183This>>4332826Doing it digitally will never be satisfactory and you'll lose quality trying to emulate it vs a very short focal length lens..
>>4332855Go for a Stereographic diagonal. 7artisans have a nice 8mm that's really cheap and you can experiment a lot with it. It's not extremelly sharp but wathever.
>>4332826Fisheyes use several different mapping functions (i.e. how the reality is projected on the sensor). The lens correction usually use the "imperfect" rectilinear function of each lense (when thos data are available) to compensate for the distortion.You could teoretically achieve fisheye effects applyng fisheye mapping functions to an undistorted rectilinear projection. The problem is that you will have a limited FOV so no real fisheye look. 100-120° instead of 160-220°. This is why the software you can find only do the opposite: they apply an inverse fisheye mapping function to a fisheye pic to obtain a rectinilinear projection.Anyway, there are a lot of problems related to "information density" that in fisheye projections is uneven, so you have problems during the conversion and usually rectified fisheye images have very bad corners.

The funniest fact about equivalence is that in real life, you almost never would have to shoot "equivalently". Some nerd would whine that your background is slightly blurrier and you cheated, but people would care more that their skin wasn't made of bayer branded sandpaper

>>4334876Correct, but my point is buying even an R7 - Canon's ***best*** APS-C is not much of a better alternative build wise either for the cut in IQ you're getting.Don't get me wrong, I own an APS-C R series and love it, but fuck Canon and FF is objectively better even if you have to deal with plastic fantastic.

Since the world is soon getting filled with wind turbines, I want to document what little is available to me through photography. What do I need to know about landscape? What is the standard gear for this? Can you do landscape photography with a shitty APS-C? Do people who do landscape usually know about predicting weather conditions?
>>4329814>almost none = none at allWork on your reading comprehension. Most landscape photographers are bad, I'd say to a greater extent than other genres.
>>4330599most landscape photographers are good, average at worstand then you have womens portraits. i genuinely think 99.9% of womens portraits are awful, and if humans of both sexes were not programmed to have an involuntary dopamine response to women with certain physical characteristics, and culturally programmed to admire those who maintain the company of women, the photos would be more clearly trash. like replace the woman with a cat or something and all of a sudden its just clearly garishly lit generic junk.why even bother being a good photograper, or a good artist? take photos of women. spend time with women. make sure everyone knows you do. and make sure they are pretty women. it doesn't matter if you go ham on the colored gels and never hire a real makeup artist and your only lighting setups are offset softboxes and clamshell umbrellas, if pretty women good photo right?

It's an effect, like a diffusion filter, not something you want to be forced to have, but specifically for digital cameras. This is because the blur can confuse the bayer filter and make it look even lower resolution than it actually is. On film soft lenses are ok, they just look glowy instead of smudged.
