Has anyone here used these services to make money? Picrel is the main Australian one, Australian Associated Press. Seems a lot more interesting than stock photography. I don’t really have more to say, just curious to hear about other people’s experiences with organisations like these.
>>4512332Sounds interesting, I can't say I'd even thought about it before and just assumed the press had their own people for their own networks. So you just submit stock images that appear on news articles then? Is that what it is?
>>4512335Yeah, exactly.
no links or further discussion OP? why even make the thread lmao
>>4512335It's an Australian Newswire much like Reuters It was founded by another of the Murdoch family, Keith if I remember correctly.
/p/, I long for the 2000s. I miss the hangouts where someone always had a digital camera and was snapping away. I miss that sweet overexposed, sharpened, sometimes saturated look that naturally came from a digicam. Please post candid photos from the 2000s like picrel. The more unique the better.If you need help, go to Google Images and search (month) (year) and the word "flickr"ex - June 2005 flickr

>>4507230GTA VI will probably be the last time for the next decade that people actually line up for a game.
>>4515018dude no one is lining up, they’ll get a digital copy in the millions MAYBE in the cities, New York or LA, but it will be some heavily publicised and controlled event.
>>4515021Don't under estimate GTA fans, these are the same lunatics that were charting the stars to try and figure out when the trailer would drop. All it needs it some special edition box with some physical garbage in it and they'll line up beyond an entire city block.

where do you get your ideas from?
Has anyone attempted to use a generic 12v battery to power a nikon D700 through the grip.I have a spare 12v lithium battery from a power drill that the brushed motor broke.The grip can hold up to 8 x AA batteries. AA batteries can have a voltage of 1.5 volts, so 8 * 1.5 = 12v.In theory it should work.But I'm afraid to test and destroy the camera.So, I'm asking if anyone has tried this before.
>>4514800yes and no. If your power supply is strong enough, just match the voltage. AA batteries are rated between 1.2V and 1.65V so anything between 10v and 13V will work. 12V is just the nominal voltage. No worries anon. Just make sure your external power supply can provide enough amps otherwise the voltage will drop and if the device isn't protected (it is) it'll turn off in the middle of doing something important and have problems or just die. For your Nikkon the max amps is about 2A (super low) so basically any lithium battery will work, but if you want to double check, just read the rated continuous discharge of your battery (the C) to know how many amps it can deliver (it's different from the battery capacity with is given in mAh). >t. Electrical engineer
>>4514841just two notes :1) make sure the polarity is correct 2) lithium batteries themselves are rated at a range , I doubt your battery has a regulator inside that forces the output to be 12v. But anyway the range is similar to AA batteries so no pressure
>>4514800Your "12v" pack is actually 10.8v; provided the grip can work with Ni-Cad/Ni-MH batteries, which would only generate 9.6v, it should be fine. Be sure to check the polarity, as the one Anon said.
Thinking about doing that way myself. Before buying gear have some questions. What are the pros and cons? Any ideas or suggestions?
>>4514810Using a shitty camera you own to instill inspiration through limitations is based.Purposefully buying a shitty camera someone else used to create limitations is turbo retarded.Let me guess, you already own a camera. Use it.

8x10 drum test was a success. Did 4 sheets at once today with no hitches aside from being stupid and trying to pull the sheets out of a dry tube and scratching them. Fomashit is actually pretty nice in sheet film size. This was taken with one of my vintage pictorialist lenses. Love the rendering of this lens so much.

starting a new one since the last one is reaching limitI recently bought myself a new softbox, the exact one in pic, and it works surprisingly well. The issue is that it won't stay open all the way, so I need something to prop it open. I've found that using a credit card and ID card work pretty well, but I don't plan on using that for obvious reasons. Anyone have any suggestions to help a retard like me, something light and small?
>>4518729also things like saturation... is it a good idea to just bring it to how it felt or looked like in person? raws are less saturated and less contrasty than real life, right?
>>4502821Not quite a camera question, but:Best lube for optics? I have some old binoculars where the lube on the focus threats and bushings has dried out, jamming the mechanism. Nasty grey stuff, but it cleans off with naptha (lighter fluid). Now to relube and re-assemble. What is the best lube? Must not dry out like the last stuff. Must also not get runny and goop up the optics.
What mm lens would be closest to a perfectly isometric, "flat" perspective without any distortion?What mm lens would be closest to the perspective/distortion human vision has?
I haven't got a clue about photography but it's something I would like to take up and a listing for a camera just popped up so I thought I'd ask. It's a Sony DSC H1 Cybershot for about 40eur is that a reasonable price and a good starter camera?
how do I calculate how big a body+lens will be? AFAIK the camera body dimensions don't stop counting the back-to-front thickness at the mount, they also include any other front-protruding elements like the grip. with that in mind, how do i combine the body length with the lens length? it doesn't seem to be listed anywhere unless i'm dumb
Do you ever gift gear to newbies or friends or family who want to get into photography? I sent a 50mm Canon EF lens to a friend because he likes photography and photo editing, but he’s got a shit zoom kit lens. It’s really soul to have a bunch of gear laying around so you can give it to someone else.
>>4505174yeah, I gifted my old EF 18-55mm (aps-c lens) to my photography friend. Who shortly after stopped photographing due to not having enough time :/Now he is just my friend.
>>4510188Oh, and I gifted my old Zenit with the Helios lens to my best friend a year ago. He never even touched it… What the fuck am I doing wrong haha
>>4505174I've gifted X700, Rebel 2000, and a Nishika N8000
>>4505174Yeah I gave my mate an Olympus lens because he gave me such a good deal on a 1Ds2. I gave another friend a Pentax Zoom WR90 to get him started out on film.
>>4505174I am the newbie.

Saw this at a bar. No one watched it and it was used for background music. Videography looks decent and on an expensive camera. Goes to show that story and captivating an audience is most important in filmmaking.

Posting kino by photographer, Diane Arbus.
these photos feel weirdly predatorylike oooooh you look lower class I will capture you I guess she was doing it to make money but the "look at all the circus freaks" vibe just feels exploitative and grossI guess the stated goal here is "capturing candid reality" but it feels more like mocking those who are different.
>>4513350It’s degenerate AND they wanted big bucks, and thus took the shortest path which isnt exactly deeply thoughtful shit. Its like photography had a marvel/dc film moment. >wait, the works of art make less money than the simplistic childish novelty? and all we have to do is heap some postmodern nonsense on later? WELL THEN *unzips leica*
>>4513352It's like you know nothing.

>>4513631I'm not arguing with you, I'm making fun of you
I saw online the 0.03 megapixel camera and was kinda curious so i snapped a few pics and modified them in gimp to reach a similar effect, including the resolution.I honestly having quite a bit of fun with these and i'm enjoying the results quite much

>>4512470Toy cameras have "character", up to you if a still from a budget crashcam is "good". Plenty in that range at ChinkExpress, including shipping. At least for EU, dunno about Tariffstan.Search Ali for G6 Thumb Camera or toy camera, and make sure whatever you find can take photos instead squirting water or whatever...
>>4501954>>4501868how do you dither like this?
Sorta Tried it myself, tried to find a pic that still has details that are still prominent in a lower res
>>4513225"Dither" tool in GIMP, its in the Color section. It being on analog maybe helps as it already came with its own grain.
