I am going to buy one as soon as they hit the market in early Novemeber. I hope I get the 1987 edition. It's fire. Which one are you hoping to score?You are going to be getting one right /p/?You aren't gonna be a contrarian try hard no Charmera /p/haggot are you /p/? ISHYDDT
>>4487570Just ordered one for $20 dollarydoos. If it's shit it just becomes a cheap decoration piece which I'm honestly fine with
I bought a six-pack to give to my family for Christmas. I'm keen. I'm debating whether I should give one to my Mum though because, on the one hand, she's going overseas next year but, on the other hand, she's utterly retarded with technology and she may not use it or find it awkward. She's also at that stage where she's basically blind to anything two feet in front of her face so I doubt she'd enjoy the experience of using it. I want to give one to my cousin instead. She's also going overseas and she's not a tech-illiterate boomer either but I would hate to make the rest of my extended family feel left out or whatever.
>>4487751>>4487763The listing on Aliexpress claims it has autofocus. I think that is a lie but in case it does, I am intrigued to hear how well it works, since the real Charmera is fixed focus.

>>4481623One or two % of acetic acid is enough if you do not reuse stop. So 2 parts of 5-10% white vinegar and 8 parts of water. Less water if you save the stop for next time. Few % citric acid also works, and does not stink like vinegar. About 30g / liter or oz per quart or whatever. Molds can grow in dilute citric acid so better not store it...
>>4481645The vinegar stink is what etched the darkroom into my memory from high school, highly recommended
>>4481623Advantage of acidic stop is it stops developing immediately (which matters if using fact acting develoer) and it keeps fixer PH down if you reuse it.

Only ai can do it
Does anyone use GIMP for photo editing and manipulation? Has it become a "photographer's program" yet, or is it still clunky and freetarded?
>>4481367What is this? Somekind of edge detection algo run on a high entropy image? ig a splash of water or just the surface of turbulent water, i am probably wrong.
>>4487887Nta. Looks like one of the inbuilt G'MIC effects you can apply in GIMP (and other GNOOO software). They're mostly memes but you can get some neat effects.
At this point Lightroom/PS combo is the only thing stopping me from ditching Windows. I'd love to see an actually good alternative that does everything those two apps do, but there isn't one.
I use Darktable for editing jpg:s also.
>>4488079It's a good tool overall, but it can't do compositing and layering well or at all. For my product photography, I need both.
What is the future of photography /pIf you were starting today what would you buy?Will stand alone cameras start needing more technological integrated features?Will cameras push harder for realism and imbedded certificates to show its a real photo or will cameras start integrating inbuilt editing features to add in skies on blown photos etc? Will standalone cameras start adding features to make short form video?I’m just worried buying today the world of photography is about to go through its most drastic change in its entire existence and this will occur over the next 10 yearsThoughts?
>>4487857Well, AI has to eliminate noise, aberrations and fuzz and then generate the perfect photo from what's left with plausible detail that is not in original to make the result look natural. I don't think current models can do that yet. But I'm no expert in AI or using AI.But I do think graphic designers are already truly screwed.The left one is part of my own filtered photo of turbulent water. I asked Grok to "find 24 shapes from this image which could be good logo of startup but different from any existing logo and draw them as lineart in 4x6 grid" (sic)
>>4488049>getting paid to generate a bunch of random shapes is a doomed career pathWell yes, but actually no.The good graphic designers are still going to completely BTFO any AI generated shit smear because AI is only good at identifying, repeating and feeding into patterns.A top-shelf graphic designer will still find work for the businesses that want to disassociate with AI. Genuinely good design is still the hallmark of a human mind (for now) and it's very obvious when genuine thought and talent went into a graphic. It's just the semi-unemployed post-grads that are fucked, and rightly so.
>>4488055I do not disagree. I've asked AI find most "important" or shapes from abstract turbulence and what it finds simply is not at all what human brain would pick up. AI can generate unlimited boring slop but AI also is already very good doing generic busywork and management. Top-self creative people will keep their jobs but there are not that many of those.
future of photo is literally AI, but this cumslurping board is too dumb to get that. we should be having AI photo threads

>it now cost $20 to develop film only with no prints or scansAHHHHHHHHH
>>4411869>tfw you fell for the film meme
based kodak saving us from filmflationfuck alaris
>>4487718Film isn't a meme. Filmfags are meme.Film is an interesting and unique approach to photography that you can't get with digital, and treating it as such can be a nice experience.Being a delusional faggot about "muh film is three billion megapickles" and failing to see the massive convenience of digital is the meme.
>>4487875This. Film is good. Liking film is good. Other people liking film sucks, those fucking hipster douches. It’s only good when I do it, everybody else is stupid. …*those* hipster douches.
>>4487875>>4487899Nah. Film is a meme. Simple as.
Took this photo with my Lumix DMC-FX8, default settings, auto. The screen is unfortunately now broken, so I can't use it anymore since I don't think I can replace the screen. I haven't had a friend since I was 12 and everyone has forgotten me. Also the text says "You are loved."
>>4484992Søte bror, hvorfor har du ikke hatt venner siden du var 12?

>>4486596Everyone just sort of drifted apart after middle school, I never managed to make any friends in both high school and college everyone was already too tight knit, I guess I have just forgotten how to make friends honestly.

>>4487035Then photography is perfect for you. You can look forward to spending all your time and money researching and flipping gear, and end up taking pictures of buildings, trees, backs of peoples heads, and rant nonstop to yourself about how all the degenerate commie jews have outsmarted you to the success you’re entitled to as a glorious capitalist of a superior race. Welcome.
Laughing gull editionLast thread >>4467818
>>4487719Yeah these shots are way better, the subject is in focus and the exposure is closer to what it should be. And regarding the background, some lenses have poor rendition of out-of-focus areas(nervous bokeh). Increasing the aperture even more might work but the dof looks quite tight already. Good job in any case. What software do you use for postprocessing?
Heron
The same heron.
>>4487746>What software do you use for postprocessingNothing at all, I haven't changed the settings on my d3400 and import the photos direct into my computer. I'll keep an eye out for bokeh since I also have an issue with pictures being blurry from hand shakes
Haven't posted in a couple of months but got a few rolls developed recently and I'm slowly going through scanning them.Exif: Leica M3 + Nokton 50mm f.1.5 + Vision3 250D (for the first seven ones), then Aerocolor IV for the remaining four.

Three sciences about light that'll help you understand: The science of photons, electromagnetic radiation, and bosonsTwo technical concepts that'll help you understand how your camera works: How computers work, how chemistry works, and how the mechanics work in a camera. (Anon here like what the fuck computers? Yes anon your digital camera is a damn computer like a smartphone is a damn computer. Hell even in some cases a calculator can be a computer. And the next what the fuck statement is about film photography which is indeed chemistry.)Last thing is knowing how all the programming and placement of the camera functionality is in your camera. Such as knowing what the hell C4k is in a Panasonic GH5 for example.You do all this you would know your camera like a mechanic knows a car. Congratulations you are a step ahead in being a photographer or cinematographer.The most important part about all of this is the hardest part which is does it make sense to you like any other art form?
>>4480588No. I'll tell you what this is like. When the video game Crash Bandicot came out, the developer knew the PS1 so much he put a hack on the game to allow the game to use more data than it should. From doing that, Crash Bandicot had higher resolution graphics than a lot of games on the PS1. The same thing can happen with a camera. Say you know what am EF mount is. You being the common consumer would (I hate doing this NeoNazi speak but I have to to sell my point on this site) have to go to Jew BHPhoto on this site and Jew Amazon to buy new lenses. So now instead of buying from Jews you can buy a cheap lens from a Japanese guy on eBay (Jannies I tried speaking his language). Now imagine the same with lights. You don't want to buy all this expensive equipment when you know from how light works a few cheap high output lights will do. You know from reading the light meter on your phone at daylight there is enough light under a shade for a photo.
New info: light summed up is a quantum function like quarks and leptons.
>>4477837hi, I've learned this statement by heart, internalised the knowledge and took a picture. It looks like shit.

>>4484980>>4484981>>4485007If you didn't tell us this was AI, we wouldn't be able to tell. That's how far these models have advanced. Everyone ITT making fun of them would be fooled by these rather minor touch-ups. All of the criticism you see is faux-intellectual virtue signalling.

How does /p/ feel about zines?They seem fun. You print your stuff, distribute it however you want, and people look at it. They might toss it in the trash but at least you made an impression.You can make them for pretty cheap. I made some lo-fi DIY-style ones with my visual art at home using just an inkjet printer, and I've been dropping them in random places for people to find.Anyone ever make zines?
Stop paying attention to the no photo.>>4482336Just to give an update : my zine project became a light photobook project. I'm progressing steadily with the help of a friend. I hope to release it in February.
>>4487632Raven's test bypasses the culture BS and yet, groids still do poorly.
>>4482336in my experience you don't have to convert to CMYK. The print software will make the conversion automatically. The reason why I wouldn't recommend it, is not all printers are CMYK, many have violet, orange, green, or even red. You don't want your image to be the limiting factor, only the printer.
>>4487640Anon. You're in the zine thread. You gave a perfect summary of exactly what people participating in this thread care about.
I want to buy a Christmas gift for a girl and I thought of a polaroid as a great gift for her. My question to you, /p/ederasts, is whether it's worth it and not just a meme
Seconding the Instax, it's simple to use and fun. Buy some cute film with the hello kitty or barbie or some other childish cartoon and she'll enjoy it.>t. I'm a cute girl and my bf bought this for me <3
>>4482270?????? this is /lgbt/ bro
>>4482272This guy definitely never had a partner to think about giving a Polaroid toThis is an older thread now but girls like Polaroids they’re fun little things to own, I got my gf one one time and she really likes using it it don’t matter if it’s a meme or not if they enjoy it who cares

Sup /p/? I am publishing a zine of anonymous confessions. I'm looking for photo submissions under the theme: confession. Any style. Interpretation entirely up to you.If selected, I will immediately send you a very nice, very large print of your work, as well as a free copy of the publication once it is released.Print will be on Moab 300gsm, 100% cotton rag, matte-finish, archival, art paper.Submit photos at:https://confesszine.com/confessionOr email:info@confesszine.compic related: it's my print shop
>>4484691>I am publishing a zine of anonymous confessions. I'm looking for photo submissions under the theme: confessionSounds like a genuine idea, OP>If selected, I will immediately send you a very nice, very large print of your work, as well as a free copy of the publication once it is releasedSorry if this question seems dumb, how would you know where/whom to send the print and a copy of the zine if its all anonymous? I really want to know how it works
>>4487623i originally intended for the confessions to be anonymous andi figured photographers would want credit for their work.But I have had several submission where the photographer didn't want credit, so in that case there are a couple ways to remain anonymous.1. you don't have to receive the free print or the zine if you are truly concerned about anonymity. 2. you can submit your photo through a burner email and ship to a 3rd party, often times print shops or shipping centers will accept packages on your behalf. just make sure they don't require a drivers license or valid ID. might be more of a problem these days, but back in the day you could pick up any package as long as you knew the name on it.3. you could sign up for my mailing list separately from your submission. i have over 100 people on my list so far and i just started this project. i'm hoping to have several hundred by the time this is ready to release. while this won't get you a copy of your photograph, it can get you a copy of the zine. ultimately, i'll need to know your shipping address, but there will be no way to link it to your submission.
>>4487680>but back in the day you could pick up any package as long as you knew the name on it.Duluth?
>time to confess fellow anons>send me your address >link me to your cloud storage>totally not a fedI have a confession for you, my frog folder takes up more storage than my photos.
>>4487691Screenshot your frog folder with how many pictures are in it and submit that. Seems like a great confession to me. Imagine a huge print in your room of that. wowza!
