>>4468787I have no idea about optics but it's quite suspicious that for binoculars the field of view is independent of magnification (focal distance)You can have an 8x binocular with a HUGE field of view that makes you feel like you are sitting in the cinema (notorious example being the 8x40 Nikon Action EX, I love that lil monster) or a chinese no-name 8x binocular with a little circle "just cope bro that's how binoculars are"

>>4467466Why keep attacking the person and ignoring the argument?Ad hominem.*yawn* Anything else?
>>4467469your argument was that you’re too much of a bitch to carry a camera. since you’re a narcissist (proven by how hard you try to pretend to be smarter than everyone else) you think your pussy ass nature is the gold standard. case closed.
>>4467471>"Why use a calculator when you can do it by hand?!"Because it's optimizing. Why work hard when you can work smart.Don't you feel embarrassed about yourself?
>>4467474avoiding exertion isn't working smart after a point. it's being a pussy.>why take good photos by carrying an unnoticeable amount of weight when i'm a pussy ass bitch and can barely fit an iphone in my skinny jeans? 28mm hdr smeary aislop is totally just as good bruhyou are doing something entirely different because you are physically and mentally incapable of the original goal. you are too weak to carry a camera. you are too insecure and neurotic to be seen with one. end of.and a calculator IS a good analogy for btfoing you and you dont know itmental math is significantly faster than you fumbling with a calculator... unless you're a fucking idiot. aka not smart. people who are bad at math are not intelligent. this is a hard and fast rule of human intelligence. not good at math = not good at abstract thinking or problem solving.work harder not smarter right? mental math is working smarter. because it is literally the domain of people who are objectively smarter than you. better people than you. your superiors.so you basically btfo yourself
>>4467544Face it: a smartphone is better than a DSLR.DSLR takes better pictures, but the latest flagship smartphone is almost comparable and infinitely available.I'll take the picture as you worry about setting up and/or finding where you put your DSLR or whatever and miss the moment.

>>4467812I was in same boat, bought a 5d mk2 and a 50mm 1.8 for like 200$ all in and it takes nice photos and the menus/dials etc are really easy to pick up. I will sound retarded but I was shocked that cameras really need a lot of light so if you plan on doing any night time shooting or anything in less than good light probably get a tripod. You can push the iso a bit on the 5d2 but not hugely. I also bought a $20 1990 canon slr and can use the same lense for which is nice to try out. I would also say you can typically recoup your money on this stuff if you don’t like it, if you don’t mind dealing with eBay etc.

Thinking of replacing my XF 10-24mm f4 when I get my X-E5I'm probably going to get a Sigma 17-40mm for the long end plus more reach but I'm not sure what to replace the wide end withMy current thinking is either>Sigma 12mm f1.4>Sigma 10-18mm f2.8>Tamrom 11-20mm f2.8Thoughts?

>Alvin Langdon Coburn recalled that the Vortographs he created in January 1917, including this one, were the “first purely abstract photographs.”>Of the tool used to create these images, Coburn wrote in his autobiography, “The instrument is composed of three mirrors fastened together in the form of a triangle, and resembling to a certain extent the Kaleidoscope—and I think many of us can remember the delight we experienced with this scientific toy. The mirrors acted as a prism splitting the image formed by the lens into segments.”>The poet Ezra Pound, who had introduced Coburn to the short-lived London-based Vorticism movement, wrote, “The tool called vortoscope was invented late in 1916. Mr. Coburn had long desired to bring cubism or vorticism into photography. Only with the invention of a suitable instrument was this possible.”

Please don't pretend to be an expert if you don't know what you're talking about. Kindly leave your ego at the door.Posting short films/scripts or other work you've done is encouraged.We tend to use and recommend DSLRs/mirrorless cameras because they provide phenomenal picture quality for their price, have large sensors (ie the same size used in high-end cinema cameras and higher) and have interchangeable lenses.In contrast, consumer camcorders often have much smaller sensors and a fixed lens.>STICKY - https://text.is/QZ1J>Helpful guide, additional books and more in-depth FAQs - https://web.archive.org/web/20200926115310/https://pastebin.com/kG0gRmTZ>NO ONE CARES WHAT AN EXPERT YOU THINK YOU ARE.

>The theory of photography can be learned in an hour and the elements of practising it in a day... What cannot be learned is the sense of light, an artistic feeling for the effects of varying luminosity and combinations of it, the application of this or that effect to the features which confront the artist in you. What can be learned even less is the moral grasp of the subject — that instant understanding which puts you in touch with the model, helps you to sum him up, guides you to his habits, his ideas and his character and enables you to produce, not an indifferent reproduction, a matter of routine or accident such as any laboratory assistant could achieve, but a really convincing and sympathetic likeness, an intimate portrait.Was Nadar right? Could you really learn the basics of photography in an hour? And the rest of it is just artistic talent?
>>4467019nah sorry I don't know much about him, I simply googled it m8
>>4467013He also took photos of hermaphroditism
>>4467027how can a man be this based holy shit
>>4466844Yeah, sure. And you can also learn the principles of drawing in an hour and get surprisingly far in a single day. It is quite a bit easier with photography though.At any rate, in both cases to learn how to see and translate what you see into a medium the way you see it (or conversely to learn to see the way the camera or the pen "sees") is the difficult bit that can take years to master, but that also clicks for some people relatively instantaneously.

>>4457051>>4457058You're a fucking idiot. No modern camera isn't a multi-piece frame, even back in the DSLR days. 5 second search on any camera teardown/disassembly and you'll find they all pretty much consist of 4 piece (top/down/front/back) minimum, with large cameras likes R1/D1 and D6/Z9 gets a 2 piece clamshell because their size allows it.>>4457065Those pictures are literal frame pieces glued together for PR shots.
>>4467067I guess there is one mono body camera out there, Sigma BF, but thats more of a 1 man's passion project and only a handful made per month.
This seems to be a topic which includes more unjustified opinions and shilling than researched facts. Searching the internet mainly brings you just Youtube videos, app ads and R*ddit topics where every other claim log curves in smarthpone videos are perfect and every other claim it's just a gimmick.Modern smartphone's curves tend to default Rec709 in 8-bit and HLG or PQ in 10-bit modes. My Snoy Xperia 5 II has Rec709/HLG by default and Camera2API reports the curve (I don't know which one) has density of 128 points. Apps like Mcpro24fps, Filmic Pro can output video files with log curves applied and I'm interested how these curves are achtually produced/achieved. Some people say those are just custom curves applied over manufacturer's default curve (which may or may not include reverse tone mapping). And then there are some claims where the manufacturer's curve is replaced with the selected log curve. App devs don't reveal their methods and I can't find any credible research about it.
I have a nice curved log for you.
