Anyone getting this? The analog fags crying about its price have not seen top end FF mirrorless digital prices I guess.My main issue with it is that panorama is useless for online sharing, a portrait oriented camera like the Fuji 645 point and shoots make more sense for premium film cameras.
>>4507508cool opinion anon I'm sure a lot of people were waiting to hear it, next time go to the stupid question thread or post it on /b/ instead of killing others threads. thanks
it looks cool but why can't the chinks step up from making cheap lenses to making cool film cameras? i'd buy a meme panoramic one for cheap and then a cheap m mount too.
>>4507508I read it was expensive but I can't find out where you are supposed to buy it.
>OMG is that Jeff Bridges' camera?I hate the publicity it gets. Soon we will see all these hipsters shooting boring unoriginal wannabee panos to grab some pathetic second hand fame. Enough to feed AI hunger, then to be replicated ad nauseam.
>>4507579pre-order only 7000usd
>>4507508Just get a 4x10 camera.
>>4507619Nice, sounds like a totally good deal.
>>4507642this just makes it more attractive to rich people who want something exclusive that plebs cant buy hehe
>>4507644For such an expensive product the site is nothing but a load of hot air.But it's fine with me, let these rich folks have their cake. I hope for them the camera is actually good.
>>4507508What a load of bullshit. What a garbage camera. Mind you, I wouldn't judge anyone for owning one and I think it's fun to explore niche ways to take photos. But the fact this is being sold for 5k and the marketing on the website illustrates perfectly why photography is not taken seriously as an art.> Yeah absolutely the camera sucks but you know, soul, right?> My client was hating every second of the photoshoot until I took out my stupid camera and then we started circlejerking about gear, so yeah, like, what's more to say, buy the dogshit camera so you can become a clown on top of a hack.
>use normal camera>take one picture aligning right edge of frame on center of composition, take another picture with left edge on center>stitch them together in post with a click>normal 3:2 cameras give you widelux 3:1 in two shotsSaved you guys some money
>>4507680Use 3 shots in manual or AEL to give software room to fix perspective distortion unless you know how to find the lens nodal point have have the right tripod plateAlso step back a bit for crop room. The edges distort when stitched.
>>4507765> fix perspective distortionanon, can you please try to keep up here? the whole point of the 5k camera is to have dogshit image quality and shitty distortion. If you don't have that where is the soul?
>>4507768Have you ever stitched a panorama in your life? Yes you need cropping room and overlapping shots.
>>4507765I am so thankful merging has become standard in LR/C1Can't remember last time I had to use Microsoft ICE
>>4507769not really unless u are retarded and can't judge depth or position well. git gud i guess?
>>4507508>yes I shoot analog>why yes I digitize the negatives>yes, yes, then I upload the digifiles at a 1080px resolution to social media>why are you calling me mentally ill?
>>4507822>doesn't understand parallax
>>4507769the whole point of this camera is to not do that and present the distortion as an interesting byproduct of the rotating lens
>>4507519There are approximately five threads by anons posting their own pictures between page 1 and page 10 with basically fuck all in the way of interaction from other anons. Yet you came hear to put OP on blast instead of engaging with any of those, or offering C&C, or any other way of sending them to page 1. Well done, faggot.
>>4507508Imagine shooting film and caring about online sharing, where you have 600kb JPEGs at 1024 width.Excuse me you fucking nigger but you know ultrawide monitors exist and wide film could get you wide landscapes you can use to create your own desktop backgrounds?Every time one of you people try to discredit something because "muh online sharing incompatible" you just out yourselves as retard cattle. You are not the target audience of this so of course your main issue for it would be THE WHOLE THING IT IS DESIGNED FOR.Take a step back, go to your nearest mirror, and call the retard you find in the mirror a moron for us please.
>>4508316>digitizing film is le soulless>JUST MAKE UR OWN DESKTOP MONITOR PAPES XDDDDRetard alert.
>>4507508>forget cool stuff for yourself and your friends>think about the jeets on social media platform by meta, inc>they cant appreciate this at all>are you really living life if you don’t have a like and a follow from shitdeep priktel?Can’t imagine living your life ngl
>>4508333confirmed u have 0 followers when you tried with your best shots so cope that IG is for losers when millions of people are earning money on it with their amazing shots. sucks to suck i guess?
>>4508336>uh some onlyfans ho is grifting on IG so its what really mattersyou have no soulspiritually jewish
>>4507508The only reason these exists is for rich jerkoffs who don't care about photography to make instagram reels of them loading film or making the lens rotate and going "waoaww you won't believe what this weird camera does1!1". It's the same reason everyone sucks off the Rollei 35 which is also not a great camera.It's just obscure enough to be "ifykyk" but not enough to make it useless as a fashion accessory.If you want a swing lens pano camera there are plenty of inexpensive Soviet ones. But then you couldn't go "DID YOU KNOW *INSERT CELEBRITY* HAS ONE OF THESE?!?!" >>4508209All 4chan boards only engage with ragebait. Not saying I'm above it but it'd be silly to think this website is any more immune to the current social media zeitgeist than any other.
>>4508366>Not saying I'm above it>immune to the current social media zeitgeist>I will continue to make this board a worse place, because other people are doing itGood use of agency
>>4508367I engage plenty with other threads. You'll find me in the film general and the still life thread up right now among others.I also like to bitch and complain and give unsolicited opinions on garbage products. You replying to me is doing the same thing you're complaining about, the only difference is you're not self-aware enough to admit it.
>>4508368>You replying to me is doing the same thing you're complaining aboutI wouldn't have anyone to call out if people stopped doing it to begin with >the only difference is you're not self-aware enough to admit it.The real difference is I don't go around the board being dishonest
>>4508369lying to yourself is dishonest :)
>>4508369Arent you the fuji fanboy whiner that got caught being a photo thief? Collagefag aka partially stolen portfolio fag?
>>4508320You're fucking brain dead.I said the problem is social media, not digital.If you just want wide for social media you can just use a smartphone ultrawide lens and crop it vertically.Widelux is for people who want something different, and analog.Nobody cares if you don't want it. It's happening and people will buy it. It exists for a reason.
>>4507645>$5000 camera and they won’t even spare the cash to have a human write the copylol. ChatGPT design the camera too?
