I've come into the ownership of a beautiful Nikon F2AS. I love shooting with it but the only lens I've got is a crappy Series E. What are the absolute best lenses I can put on this thing?

>authoritatively about an improbable amount of things without any uncertainty with no ownership history
Same can be said about almost anything in hardware-centric hobbies but do mind i've had a third of those lenses, the others are mostly well known in this board and other forums as they were favs of the fat bald angry photographer that was memed a decade ago.
You can see formal tests and day-to-day uses in sites like Flickr, your ignorance is no excuse and the AI argument is just retarded, might as well say half our reality is AI.

This would make a great creepy photo. Like add a man running at you from the house on the left with an uncanny valley face.

I don't want to buy a new flagship every two years. I just want to have a nice pocket camera and keep my midrange for a while. My old olympus pocket camera lasted for almost a decade.
Preferably nothing more expensive than $700

Get a 6D; it falls right at the $200 mark and it has in-body lens corrections (unlike the 5D2).
The 6D isn't a "pro" body; it's also an enthusiast, hence, why it uses the x0D body size/layout.
The original 7D can be had for around $100, but I'd push you towards the 6D due to the cheaper film-era lens for it.

>>4518351
Smartphones rule for day to day shapshots because they're always with you. Next are pocket compacts when you feel like bringing them from time to time. Bigger cameras as specialized tools with tactile dials, plus other specific requirements.
If a smartphone can do the job, then no issue there.

Thank you. I've been specifically looking for a new camera to last me the next decade or more while travelling. My first camera ever was a Kodak EasyShare C143 which I used for more than a decade or maybe even 2 decades, until new Windows couldn't run its software or something. The last camera I had bought was this chink scamera from Facebook Marketplace for $40 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hiH4Ay7YezE. Before that, I had a Minolta MN12Z from one of my shitty relatives, and it was such a shit camera even when taking regular photos. I swear, all I want is to take CLEAR and FOCUSED photos of things like placards in museums, as well as video of me and friends and places when I travel, but these cameras can't do any of that. I am holding the fucking camera as still as I can but just by using the dumb "digital zoom" and zooming in to take the shots, they become pixellated blurry messes no matter what sort of size I pick. I could try taking photos in 5000x4000 size, but they'd still look like an indecipherable glitchy pile of pixels. The Minolta felt trash to use too. My old crap Samsung phone's camera was actually better because I could have finagled the retarded unchangeble auto-focus of it to take the photos when they were actually clear.

Anyway, I just need
>camera that can fit 64 GB MicroSD
>has a focus that actually works to take clear photos of detailed things
>has a decent video capability
That's it. I don't want stupid effects, filters, scene moods, or whatever useless filler "feature" trash. I just want something that WORKS. But what is one that works?

>Profoto/buff aren’t actually better or THE upgrade
Good way to discredit yourself lol
>>
>>4518394
He’s right

This is /p/. No one here is operating a studio or even working with a business license. They’re shooting for friends and family or doing a wedding here and there. Profoto’s only practical advantage is first party support and guaranteed turnaround times on repairs. Godox has no support.

Otherwise a flash is a flash.
>>
>>4518414
If all he said was Godox was good enough for most people, no disagreement there, I agree Godox makes good flashes and would recommend them to like 99% of people
Just silly to pretend Profoto isn't better, and mentioning Buff is a red flag, they haven't been relevant for like 10-15 years ool

hi /p/ - pentax

just got my first 70-200mm f2.8 and it feels like i raped the seller ended up being $194 ($150 + $30 ship + $14 tax)

seems pretty minty wasnt really looking for one but between this and the $120 55mm f1.4 da* sdm im done for a few months unless a <$220 28-105mm f3.5-5.6 d-fa hd wr pops up (or a really cheap limited; but i'd like the k1 kit lens for my k1 since its REALLY good as a do-everything zoom)

i sold a bunch of lenses in the last few weeks too to make up for it, mostly minolta shit + macro lenses i never used, stuff that i literally didnt touch more than 2-3 times after buying. i have a k200d im gonna list up soon but im not expecting to get shit; it has 100k+ shutters.

sold (not shown: $7.99 ship for all)

-Tamron AF 28-75mm f/2.8 XR Di LD ASPH IF Pentax K A09 - $109.99
-Minolta AF Macro 100mm f/2.8 Lens Late Model RS - $84.99

Some of the pictures are very nice, and the effort for composition can be seen through and trough; while some others should have been curated out and kept for yourself… We get it! But you could also break from the B&W and gain from using color when it appears to be more relevant. Half of these don't work with your preset and adjusting the curves and contrast appropriately would still create inconsistency between your images and style anyway. Do justice to your pictures, don't smear narcissism all over them. Stop larping, use color.

Since I'm unlikely to ever get any kind of Xpan camera, I thought it might be interesting to post some wide crops from two cheap digicams and a phone (Fuijfilm J20, JX500 and Nokia Lumia 520) taken over the last few years. The JX500 has a scratched lens but nice colours and I think it does OK.

Some of these I've posted before, some I haven't.

Thanks.

The whole thread is just my experiments in getting an XPan look from old, broke (and often cheap) digicams and phones. The Nokia Lumia 930 I'm now concentrating on has a Zeiss lens and can give DNG (Raw) files. Someone who understands editing could get a lot from these files, but even with my limited skills, I can get them looking better than their standard jpegs.

I've also printed some of these photos and they look OK. I'm not someone who cares that much about the technical quality of photos (I sort of share the philosophies of Daidō Moriyama and Dmitry Markov and a number of the early pictorialists).

Digicams had their moment. I wonder if cheap camera phones are next? Still plenty of good deals out there for early Android phones (and some iPhones).
