Why are image sensors rectangular when a camera’s image circle is… well, circular?
>>4483957So sounds like straight lines are easier then, thank you for confirming
>>4483891The wafers are circular to begin with. Just make the wafers smaller and have one sensor per wafer.
>>4483963Yes, they are, unless you're a physicist, then they're the fallacy at the root of all your nightmares. You're welcome.
>>4484156>not just using the entire wafer at their current sizesensorlet
>>4483892explains why lenses are rectangular and not spherical
Recently got a camera without a light meter, looking for some tips on how to meter by eye.I get the principle behind sunny 16, and have the table in my head, but I'm constantly getting different readings from my (phone) light meter than I'm getting from my guesses using sunny 16. Is it just practice?
>>4484229Where's this? You did a fantastic job of making it very ambiguous
>>4484231in Lyon, I was gonna take a picture of the street but the guy thought I was gonna get him. So I did end up shooting him.it's a cool city
>>4484233ended up*
>>4484234fuck I'm retarded tonight, why did I see a typo thereAlso found this picture I apparently never edited, it's completely off topic but that girl is pretty
>>4481784Shoot the same ISO for a year using one lens and you'll get a good understanding of sunny 16.
what the hell happened to lighting? 40 years ago you'd have a nice controlled hairlight even on a presidential portrait
Ever since the producers of commercials did a study a couple of decades ago and found out that children and people with lower intelligence paid more attention to video if the camera was constantly moving, good cinematography and lighting no longer mattered as long as you had a shaky image. Then it moved on to television programs where it looks like everything was shot handheld. Cheap background synthesized music followed. Works out well for the production company because it saves them money. That migrated into still photography where proper lighting no longer matters as long as you grade your images.

>>4482153Back then you had to get it right in camera. Now every fag thinks they can fix it in Photoshop. That's all has gone to shit
>>4482615You haven't ever met gen alpha. They make ChatGPT do all their homework.>t. Once a Teaching Student
>>4484160yep. we fail them.They were remodeling the floor I'm on and were going to remove the old 1800s copper ceiling panels from the hall, said we'd finally have cell reception out there. I asked to have them installed in our photo lab under the guise of eliminating EM interference with all the sensitive photo electronics. :)No one can get a cell signal in the photo lab.
Explotion
>>4484117Wow!
>don't switch to a new mount in the digital transition so all your customers can still use their old film lenses>pride yourself for upholding true photographic tradition and having the finest lenses with the most "character">release the first full frame camera that can actually make full use of all those "sweet" 35mm pentax lenses in 2016, literally 10 years after the competition>in the meantime only make shitty APS-C kit zooms>Release your only monochrome camera for the true affecionados>It's APS-CWhy is this company such a joke?
Pentax bros I’ve been using my old K1000 exclusively for the last 8 years and I’m coming back to digital. I only have a shitty old APS-C Canon tho, can I find low-light happiness with a K1ii/5Div or do I have to abandon the DSLR life for a soulless mirrorless system? Please take a compressed-as-shit Ilford print as payment
>>4486035K1ii feels like it can take pics in the dark especially with the FF sensor it just eats at <3200 ISO. KF/K-70 was pretty damn good too. This is at 12800 ISO and one of my favorite pics. Pentaxes are very ISO-agonstic imo...its the garbage AF + not-screw drive lens selection + horrible support that kills them. I regret selling my KF for $380 honestly kinda wish I just kept it, kinda shopping for another one <$300.
>>4486085This is at ISO 6400...my biggest issue is shooting auto (I know I know) the KF/K-70 was kind of dumb...the program line loves to trend towards a higher ISO than it actually needs. K1ii isn't nearly as bad at this aspect I have a line on a KS2 for $150 locally w/18-50mm kit lens + 50mm f2 SMC but its 2 hours away (Allentown PA when I live in NYC) and I think the guy told me to go fuck myself because he quit replying when I said I wanted to keep in touch closer to Saturday to head out there.
>>4486085>not-screw drive lens selectionit doesn't matter if you have screw drive autofocus if you take pictures of servos

Hey, /p/.I'm new to this board and I'm looking to buy my first dslr camera. I was wondering if you guys can give a beginner like me some recommendations on what camera to buy. I've heard Canon is the go-to-brand, but I'm not sure what model is the best option. Camera recommendations that won't make me look like a redditor lesbian would be greatly appreciated.I've got about $950 to shell out. Thanks.
>>4482773my favorite post itt unironically shop for a pre-2012 dslr with a good lens selection, preferably from nikon/canon so you can adapt the lens onto a nice newer camera if you like it (think nikon d750/d850 or canon 5div/5ds).my ccd shitters have taught me how to work to get a good photo as opposed to just firing auto and letting the camera do the work. at the end of the day they're fun to use and i love swapping between my k1ii and something like a konica minolta 5d. i suggest a nikon d200 or d600 or a canon 5d 6d or 7d (i like the single digit d models since theyre the pro models vs consumer...better build quality and nicer to use) https://washingtondc.craigslist.org/nva/pho/d/manassas-canon-5d-mark-camera/7896150454.htmlhttps://newyork.craigslist.org/brk/ele/d/brooklyn-professional-grade-canon-6d/7884263025.htmlpersonally not a fan of pentax or sony for this price range you can get more money and a better camera for the same money (and a way better camera if you upgrade)...the sony dslrs/slts have awful build quality. would only recommend if you found something like a a350/a380/a390 for <$100 or a a68/a77 for <$300. Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.
>>4480615Unless you're a decent-skilled photographer, the camera you use doesn't matter I recommend using the archive to look at the digishit threads, you'll see some good stuffIn your portfolio, do you even have any photos you took that you unironically think "this photo is dogshit, but if it was in higher resolution it would be amazing"? I highly doubt any properly composed photo goes from being bad to being amazing simply because of camera, don't fall for the consumerist bullshit
>>4483502you're a faggot. post your own pics.
Is it true Asian women find camera guys a turn off?

LEICA Reporter Jacket MONOCHROM editionIn this thread, we're going to talk about photographic fashion which is what we wear when we're photographing or filming and doing related stuffs(developing, scanning, reviewing, printing, sucking up the client's shit, etc)What do you wear when you photograph? What is your must have /p/hasion item? Do you have any item you're looking for?
I just wear generally whatever makes me look the most invisible and keeps me warm

Snoybob EditionOld thread autosaged. Dumb questions go here.
Do I need to do crop equivalence when using the shutter speed rule of thumb of at least as fast as 1/focal length?
>>4486932Tf is this retarded rule, get a meter faggot
>>4486932Yes you do. That said it's not a strict rule and 1/f can end up being too slow or unnecessarily fast for some people, so do some experimenting to see what works with you. If you're shooting APS-C you might find that 1/f still works with you if you've got some steady hands, it's not that far off.
Is the NAND shortage induced by the AI craze also affecting SDXC and CFexpress cards?The particular card I was looking at didn't get discounted for Black Friday and are now even going up in price
I bought a few vintage zoom lenses and they had some fungus and whatnot inside them, so I decided to take them apart and clean the elements, but apparently I mixed the order and now the focus is all over the place. whats the best way to find the correct order? I already tried lookign for it's "schematic" or similar lens but they look to be some korean brand lenses so I couldnt find anything. also I was wondering if I could use 2 laser pens to find out the order?
I need to see flat earth.
>>44783761/1.33" is common as fuck these days (3/4 of an inch). Pretty sure the 2021 Google Pixel had that so I'd be fuckin floored if the iPhone isn't doing better than it in 2025
>>4478382Only the Japanese (Sony, Sharp) and Chinese (Xiaomi, Ulefone, vivo, Huawei) do 1" and above in smartphones, American and Korean brands do not care.
>>4478382The 1/x" sensor type is a relic of video camera tube era. It does not mean diagonal.1/1.33" type sensor diagonal is 12mm, less than 1/2 inch. And 1" type diagonal is 16mm.
>>44827831" cameras aren't actually 1" either. I guess I should have said 3/4 of a 1" sensor.
>>4478233I just think it looks neat
Where do I go from here?
>>4483902it worked for awhile, niggaor atleast it seems that way to me
>>4483902that's how traditional forums and message boards have worked for like 30 years, as well
>>4483904Zoomers only know Twitter, Facebook posts and expiring 60second videos. Are you really surprised?

I cannot believe people are still buying anything other than Canon.
Rate this set up.
What's good in the world of lights for indoor work? I see some guide recommending me to buy a TT600 and a remote, but I want to be cheap. Anything decent enough I can get second hand?
>>4483221Get a GoPro
I'm currently working on my masters in ancient Greek archaeology. Now part of my research involves going around lesser known ancient sites and museums taking good technical photos. So far my current setup is not so handy. I'm using a bag insert to turn my regular bag into a day bag/camera bag. My budget is like 200ishWhat I really need is a backpack that can hold a tripod, notebook or two, a laptop, and a nikon d850 with 3 or so lenses one of those being a large telephoto lens. Id really like to have one that comes with a waterproof covering I can put on the backpack as parts of Greece gets a lot of rain outside of summer. This is also so it can be covered from dirt if I bring it on a dig site.Id like something that I can take to the lab and school while also using for field excursions. I'm in the US at the moment so I'd like to buy it here and then take it back to Greece with me.
Anon, what is in your travel kit?Mine see picrelated. Leaving for a 10day trip in two hours. That's what I take with me.I hope I learn something on the trip and in the future won't take two lenses - but only one.
>>4481212>Suck my dick>>4481214>Choke on itThe 2 of you need to get a room.
>>4479200Cute camera, cute photos. The deep depth of field and local contrast gives a slice of life feel.
Ugh, working on a camera + car combo
>Getting into 35mm film>want to bring film camera and my nikon zf>have 4 different camera bags>none of them can comfortably do thisfuck me
>>4483809The hunt for the perfect bag is a fools errand, bar making it yourself, it doesn’t exist. And even then I doubt you could actually make the perfect one.
What are some landscape photographers for the 21st century?

>>4477818Hello there Burke, nice to see you again
>>4477752That was intentional so that people could figure out this was a small pool on a rock and not some big huge lake>>4477784It's the sliding word, but you have to solve a bunch of captchas and then only type the words with the circle above them its annoying>>4477799yeah but now it looks like it was shot on expired film and the colors look weird and oversaturated
>>4477799Looks worse
>>4478107>That was intentional so that people could figure out this was a small pool on a rock and not some big huge lakeI think it's pretty clear anyway.
How could he take such nice pictures with this jank?
>>4483658Read his writing you couldn't be more wrong. He hated automation and coomsumer technology. He'd still be using a view camera today.
Incel Adams would have agreed with all my personal opinions and would not have been a gearfag, but he also would have used a phase one and also loved communism also I am gay.
>>4483658>>4483660>Ansel would be a filthy digislug like us even though reach was such an important aspect of his work and digital hasn't surpassed film yet
>How could he take such nice pictures with this jank?>4x5 babby formatlmao he didn'there's a real camera
>>4483658he loved view cameras but he also used a hasselblad a bunch I think he would spend a lot of time perfecting his raw editing technique since he was very autistic about the dark room process >Dodging and burning are steps to take care of mistakes God made in establishing tonal relationships
