For decades boomers held back the evolution of photography. Now hipsters have joined them. Today modern digital cameras are still designed as if it was 1995. Billions of dollars over the past 30 years has been wasted by corporations designing digital cameras around designs of 1950s film clunkers. The world of photography should have moved on from film and its janky designs twenty five years ago. Cellphone companies certainty figured this out. Now they are eating camera companies alive. How embarrassing.
Fuck retarded photographers and camera companies for not pulling their heads out of their ass. There is literally no rational reason to be using film today besides hipsters shitting themselves over bygone aesthetics. This is especially true since 99% of their shared film photos are DIGITALLY SCANNED AND UPLOADED TO THE INTERNET!!! There is certainly no reason for cameras to be be clunky monstrosities either besides boomers nostalgic for the past and retarded corporations catering to them. God damn, film and its antiquated designs still hounding photography. Film and its lingering stench need to die already.

>>
>>4392678
>What do you mean that cameras are made like they were in 1995?
Modern high end cameras are chunks of antiquated shit molded by technology and photographer habits founded in the 1950s. When corporations realized the future of photography was digital in the 1990s they set to transitioning consumers to to "film like" digital cameras instead of pushing out digital cameras designed
to be "digital cameras". Here we are 25 years later with pro digital cameras that are still cobbled together splitting their design and function between film and digital.
>>
>>4392781
lmao who are you even mad at dude? what do you expect a camera to be in your idealised vision?
>>
>>4392678
>>4392781
Cont.
Here is one example. We all know ISO was is film sensitivity to light. With digital cameras however ISO settings increase the amplification of the signal sent by the sensor. As such there should be no ISO setting on any digital camera. There should be a sensor gain setting instead. While this setting is currently cobbled into modern cameras built in pretending to be ISO. With film cameras ISO is set and forgotten between rolls of film. ISO isn't something to set in between shots like shutter, aperture, focus, ect. which all have their own easily accessible control. This design has carried through to modern digital cameras in that most cameras are still stuck with a couple knobs to be utilized as shutter and aperture. Even if re-assignable there is still only two knobs so some other setting is getting buried if sensor gain is assigned to one of them. No modern digital cameras should have less than three control knobs. There should be shutter, aperture and sensor gain knobs. Instead digital cameras are crippled with simply not enough readily accessible controls. If ISO of film was something that could be changed between shots by turning a knob there would have been three quickly accessible knobs on all SLR cameras since film photography was sold to the masses a decades ago. As soon as digital cameras began being sold, an easy to access sensor gain knob should have been immediately added to cameras.
>>
>>4392678
>What do you mean by clunky?
I mean modern slr/mirrorless are chunks of shit with awful ergonomics, poor control layout, antiquated operating systems, terrible menus and in general simply behind the times. Almost nothing has changed with camera design in 25 years. Take a look at a Nikon D1 from 1999, an F6 from 2004 and a Z9 from 2024. They are all the same clunky chunk of shit. Meanwhile companies like Apple have innovated products over the same twenty five years and have gone from iMac G3 chunks of shit to sleek modern iPhone 16 Pro Max that are computers and cameras and gps and games and a million other things limited only by what apps are available. Why are cameras still mongoloid devices? Where the fuck are apps for cameras? Why aren't there touchscreens on every camera? Ffs why aren't there enough knobs on modern cameras? I don't want to hear about the limits of stuffing modern tech into a massive black brick of photographic shit. Its real simple: iPhone tech plus interchangeable lens camera. There is no rational argument why modern camera technology is stuck in early 2000s.

>How do film photographers buying used cameras have anything to do with Camera companies selling modern cameras?
Photography is dead in the water right now because photographic technological innovation has ground to a complete halt besides bells, whistles and bullshit spewed from corporations. Modern cameras suck. No one in their right mind wants them. Not film photographers. Not digital photographers. Not even zoomer instagramers want modern cameras. A majority of photographers have simply checked out of modern photographic technology. The reason for this is companies have stopped progressing while constantly raising prices and killing off all manner of innovation while ceaselessly clinging to film based design. If technology was progressing as it should most film photographers wouldn't waste time backpedaling into film because they would be excited about innovation that isn't happening. New camera sales are dead in the water. The only people buying new cameras are people with more money than sense. A large number of photographers are going backwards into digital cameras, film cameras, any camera besides modern junk. Even fifteen year old snap shitters are commanding ludicrous prices in the aftermarket. The absolute state of modern camera technology drives people away from the market. It kills innovation of technology and the progression of photography. It's all because of greedy companies selling film like digital garbage since the late 1990s. Fuck film. Fuck making digital cameras that wish they shot film. Film should have died in 1999. Had this have occurred photography wouldn't be where it is today, going driven backwards by the boat anchor film has become to digital technology.

if you want to revolutionize camera design philosophy, to move from traditionalist film based to modernist optimal for digital use, you have to offer the masses something more appealing than familiarity. every single 2000s bridge camera with unique form factor has failed for that reason
it amazes me how they keep the button setup on the flagship models instead of the mode selection wheel since it was introduced like 20 years ago or so. the pro boomers are so used to it they would snap if they had to learn something new.

You do realise film sensitivity was just called ISO because that's the standard it followed, right? It wasn't even the only one, it's just what became most popular. Digital sensor sensitivity follows the same standard and behaves the same way so that's what it's called as well. The only reason to call it something else would be to make it easier for normies who can't do five minutes of research to figure out what the numbers mean. Are you also advocating we relabel the aperture value as the blur amount?

Meanwhile if you allowed manufacturers to call it what they want then they'd go and stick their own values on it, no one would known what a Nikon sensor sensitivity of 10 means or how it would compare to a Canon sensitivity of 10. And whether a Sony lens with a blur rating of 2 is faster or slower than a Panny lens with a rating of 3. And let's just scrap focal lengths while we're at it, stick for zoom ratios for zoom lenses and ultrawide, wide, normal, tele, supertele, etc. for primes, just so it's easier for the uneducated.

Yes, they ate the cybershot wx coolpix neon yellow poweshot number soup shitters that barely looked like cameras. Real cameras are doing fine. The canon rebel slinging MWAC craze is dying off but otherwise no phones changed nothing that matters.

Just shut up and buy a sony a7c. Sony already did exactly what you want. The problem here is canon and nikon. Centered viewfinders are morally wrong. Sony is #1 in full frame market share solely because they are the only one making compact bodies with offset viewfinders and compact lenses with working aperture rings (its not film design, its GOOD design, your hand is already meant to be there and so should a standardized clicked and declickable control wheel)
>>
>>4392837
canons aperture rings only work in video unless you buy the $4500 non weather sealed r5ii, yknow the one with the same dynamic range as a lumix g9ii
>canon: release another blob only trinity zoom users matter. release another bazooka lens big aperture means its more pro. and remember, no weather sealing on non-L lenses allowed! huh sony just got getty? that was our last major contract. at least we dominate aps-c *hangs self*

1/8th the autofocus (this sole feature is why canon and sony remain dominant)
Less aperture than sony’s smallest shittiest lens

And probably a patent stopping anyone from using its one good idea (tilting evf) or else it would be on everything by now. Apparently it really is a patent. Look at how retarded fuji’s tilted centered EVF is.

The A7C is ugly, that's the problem. No one wants to walk around be seen with an ugly looking product hanging around his neck. And in todays time people care more than ever about prestige. That's why the X100VI is trending so much, being sold out everywhere. Because it's not as ugly as Sony, Canon or Nikon cameras. Even from technologic standpoint it's worth in basically every way. Still everyone wants one.

Yes it still steals from nostalgic/retro feels. But that's because no manufactor yet could create a modern looking beauitful camera. Why would you? The market is dying, good designers are rare and expensive. Let engineers and ergonomists chose the design.

Leather, silver, black, buckles, fitted everything, if you’re a 4channer there’s a 99% you love it and want a messenger bag to round it out.

Cameras should have operating systems, but none of this LE APPS shit. Simply refine the software so shooting raw isnt mandatory. Give me the same sharpening and NR controls I have in capture one. Achieve mixed white balance correction, something my phone can do, something fucking FILM did not even need. Replace all these hdr lo/dr123 bullshit settings with a shadow gradation SLIDER. Get rid of raw, jpeg, and raw+jpeg mode. Only shoot raw internally. Store jpeg settings as metadata so they can be adjusted on camera and autoconvert when exporting. Instead have an "export raw only" option

Usb C 3.1 full featured on every body
Screens as good as a fucking xiaomi phone
Batteries that hold actual charge instead of 2x lithium ion AAs in a plastic shell

Did you know camera jpeg engines only have global moire reduction, and its always on, as high as possible? This is destructive to fine detail and color separation

And it’s why they often opt for crazy strong AA filters and equally bad solutions like xtrans. If cameras had competent operating systems, you could tap to auto-mask the object with moire and adjust the moire reduction just like you can on a real editor. Such as the one that can run on your phone. But the back screen cant even automatically adjust brightness (an ipod touch from the 200#s could!) so why would they figure that out…photographers are cucks and think having to shoot raw and fiddle with menus for basic shit like brightness makes them skilled.

The camera doesnt even LET you do the fucking work without moving the files to a macbook first, retard. Shooting raw is mandatory if you want the IQ you paid for. For thousands of dollars for a sensor from 2012, this is inexcusable. My fucking phone can edit d850 raws with the full feature set of capture one. Phone price: $1k. Why can a $5000 sony a1 or canon r5ii NOT?

It can’t even adjust screen brightness automatically. Do you feel proud and like a hard worker when you menu dive to change screen brightness? Really?

Do yo also feel accomplished when you swap an overpriced battery pack because jap cucks are afraid to move to the same battery tech that works fine in phones and laptops? You could get 2000 shots per charge and instant refills from power packs and wall warts with USB PD but you are STILL paying cannot and snoy $100 for a battery pack designed in 2005. At least the chinks sell you an inferior version for less right? $5000 devices btw.

You are a cuckold if you pay more than $350 for these unforgivably stagnant pieces of shit and your defense of plastic jap ewaste is a large part of what killed photography. These pieces of shit are less convenient than a phone because they are locked into the same paradigm as the nikon d200. Therefore the benefits over a d200 are negligible.

You do not need a large screen to edit. People just like looking at the final product at a larger size for appreciation reasons. Even real estate photos, the lowest of the low, are preferred on a 15” 4k screen at the minimum.

But for local and global adjustments I only need a 6” screen to get r dun. It could happen right on camera, if japan could imagine a paradigm from a year other than 2005. Have you ever tried to use nikons nx transfer shit? Basically doesnt work. The only reliable workflow has not changed since 2005. Remove card stick in computer.

Screens, batteries, and product design haven’t changed since 2008

Image quality fundamentals have not changed since 2013

They added camcorder functionality thats it - oh wait, that was 2012 (5diii), and it got modern (4k) in 2016

How about IBIS? Oh wait 5 axis IBIS dates to february 2012.

FPS? Mech shutters actually got slower. Shutterless cameras drop to aps-c DR or worse. Some upgrade for the single least important spec in photography.

Resolution? Stagnant since the 5ds, except for one shitty sony line that adds 11 more whole megapixels.

At least medium format digital finally got as accessible as a 2013 DSLR amirite?

all progress in professional cameras has been nothing more than soulless design committees allowing features that were already on consumer/hobby cameras to trickle in
>ok, NOW we admit that the screen should flip out. happy?

bait

sorry man but no one can tell the difference between a full frame dslr and last year's iphone anymore no one cares
>>
>>4393896
they can (at 4k and above), thats why the pixel peeping bad meme exists. to cope.

Also, you're a fag.

I have never used a dslr anon, I do not shoot digital. You're frothing at the mouth at your imagination.

>ree anime ree japan ree in camera editing
just shoot raw and use literally any software to edit, why the fuck would you want to do editing on anything other than a full sized high quality monitor anyway? do you think professional musicians get mad that they can't record and mix their music on their instruments?
>>
>>4393956
No. Never.
>>
>>4392664
I shoot film because my parents didn't throw out their old cameras and I don't want to spend money on a new digital camera that will be superseded in a few years time.
>>
>>4393961
exactly. a professional musician would never expect their guitar, no matter how expensive, to record and mix their music for them or even to be able to be used to mix their music after the fact. they would never say "well shit i can record on my phone and its pretty good, and I can even get garage band on it, so why can't fender make a damn guitar that does it for me?? i'm not spending two grand on strat that can't even do what my iphone does."

this is literally what >>4393852 is saying, whaa whaa i can't use one tool for every part of the job whaa whaa.

and of course the irony is that they probably don't even use a fucking camera aside from their iphone and have convinced themselves that its everyone else's fault that they can't get the images they want to

more weak bait

iPhones work great. So do higher end android phones.

Digital cameras don't exist without operating systems. How do you think digital cameras work? Magic?

false equivalency
you're retarded if think somehow these concepts should be related

>comparing cameras to an instrument from 3000 fucking BC
This is how you excuse japan for charging you $4500 for the same tech they sold 12 years ago lmfao

You compare it to medieval musical instruments
>yes mashimoto i am very happy to be reliant on a computer because you put a casio watches processor in my $4500 camera
>yes mashimoto please more memory card bullshit
>and more 2005 era battery packs
>why are fewer people buying cameras
>hey is nikon going out of business? what? sales down again this year? where did olympus and pentax go?

Anyone who disagrees is a literal luddite

Using a workflow thats old enough to vote when cameras could produce the same good results onboard and actually use and integrate with modern technology does not make you an artist

It makes you a tech nerd, the kind thats still using CDs instead of cloud storage and insisting its better
Steve Jobs literally took a multi-billion dollar bite out of photography because photographers are idiots lol

With each passing year more phones and fewer "real cameras" are sold. And those phones are catching up.

95% of people aren't smart enough to think of an OS beyond Windows, MacOS and Android. Even more people forget that just because a piece of software is proprietary and very limited in what it does, doesn't make it anything less than an OS.

For the dum-dums:
>An Operating System is any piece of fundemental software that controls the general use of a piece of hardware. Usually sits on top of firmware.
>>
>>4394316
its only a false equivalency to you because you disagree.

>>4394320
I have never bought or owned a digital camera of any form, its funny you continue to obsess over an object's expense or where its from instead of considering that specialized tools have specialized functions. why would I want to edit my photo on a screen that's going to be a couple of inches wide at best when I own a computer that can actually display my image in a useful fidelity? why should I be editing while I shoot, detracting from what my focus should be (capturing the moment) when I can capture accurate images and then later edit it to achieve the size/crop/color grade/effects I want? do you think a drill that doesn't also hammer in nails is defective because you paid $500 dollars for a construction tool from germany and thus it should be able to do it all?

>>4394321
the workflow has existed for thousands of years. before we could generate images with cameras they were generated with people's hands and physical materials. the people observed, composed, sketched, and then finally added details and subtle changes to create the ultimate work of art. maybe they made multiple sketches and combined the best results, or sketched two different scenes/subjects and then combined them into a final composition. why is it ludditic to think that this way continues to be the best way? before I even go out to take pictures I choose the film i'm going to use, the lens(es) i'll bring with me, and potentially even what subject matter i'm searching for. I observe with my eyes, compose in the viewfinder, and then take the picture. if I want the film to be darker or more blown out or to combine two pictures I do it after the fact, once I have the images captured. just because its digital now doesn't mean you should disregard those steps that people have used to create compelling images since the dawn of civilization. you're focused on the details and the bells and whistles and not on fundamentals.

>i dont own a digital camera, but im a narcissistic piss baby here to write an essay about how i am very smart for changing screen brightness manually and relying on a computer to finish off photos
Lol grow up young sheldon. The adults are talking. Go now, go play with your computer.
>>
>>4394336
once you can produce a better image than >>4392667 with something that's almost 50 years old then you can call me young sheldon bud. it seems to me that you're the one obsessed with turning your camera into a computer that can finish the photos for you. I don't need to worry about editing in camera or on a computer because once the photons hit the emulsion the images is captured and I just need to bring it out.
