I was the anon thay said i fucked up my first roll of film like 2 months ago. Well, I got the roll of film back, and the light had only ruined like 8 photos so, 16 were pretty ok, besides looking like shit because I'm new to this. I especially liked this photo, but it looks kinda retarded.
>>4488688wtf is wrong with you lol
>>4488600best shot itt
I kinda like those pics. Have a nice vibe to them :)The sun looks nice, warm and cozy there
>>4488600Agreeing with some posters. Vibey.I’ve been experimenting with film recently and hope my night shots turn out as neat but I’m expected some totally unexposed frames off my disposable.
>>4491659>totally unexposed frames off my disposable.yeah. f/9 at 1/125 (give or take) is 10 stops too dark at night with 100ISO film, and 8 stops too dark with 400ISO film, or less than 1% of the required lightunless you used flash and subjects were close enough
This thread is dedicated to close-range photographic captures utilising macro-optical imaging configurations to achieve greater reproduction ratios. Got it? Good now upload some shit. Last thread: >>4376661
>image limit reachedShall we wait until spring to make a new thread? All my insect bros are gone, literally nothing to shoot :(
>>4485226Use a tripod and pray for a still bug / no wind. Let the AF motor do it for you. The rocking method is unreliable because there's little chance you can go perfectly forwards and backwards without any lateral movement whatsoever.>>4492505Could just get a thread going with some old photos, no harm in that really.
>>4492539Is macro defined as 1:1 or greater, or is it just images "in the spirit of" taking pictures of small things?
>>4492540Technically Macro is 1:1. In practice, anything involving "small" subjects and/or higher than normal magnification is macro photography. Better to think of it as a general idea than a clearly defined rule, and if anyone gets all high and mighty over you using a 0.4x lens or something then that just means they're a massive faggot.Back in the day when basically every lens was between 0.2x and 0.1x magnification, the only way to get proper macro photos was with a dedicated macro lens (or bellows). These days more and more everyday lenses feature higher reproduction ratios with 0.5x being fairly common and normally the point that companies will slap the Macro moniker on it. Hell, my 100-400mm lens has a 0.42x ratio without trying, and it would be more than enough for decent enough macro.
>>4492553Yeah that's how I feel about it also. I do a lot of 8x10 snapshitting type stuff around 1:1 and it always makes me chuckle a bit when I consider posting a picture with my entire hand in it or something in the macro general because technically it is 1:1.It's more fun to remain within the spirit of macro and post photographs of small things instead. :D

I take photos on a Sony Mavica. I'm not a photographer per se, but I think this will be my new hobby now.
>>4491828Sir I’m going to need proof that doll is at least 18
>>4491828Why did you make two threads?
I just found a vintage camera museum page and thought maybe someone here might be interested in ithttps://licm.org.uk/livingImage/1930Room.html
>>4492511Cool. Another really fun one is to look up the old 1800-early 1900s newspaper photography ad archives. Tons and tons of really neat old photography ads for film, printing seevices, lenses, etc.
Seems like a good site for old camera enthusiasts
Got a Fuji X-E5 kit for Christmas. Sharing the first pics SOOC. Not the best photographer, but I can tell I’m going to love using it. Plus it’s my first camera that’s truly mine, so how could I not love it?
>>4491989Wow that's pretty good lol. Definitely a /p/ approved camera.
Took a trip to The Museum of Russian Art in Minneapolis. Was pleasantly surprised by how beautiful everything was. Not that I was expecting it to be bad or anything. Just liked it way more than I thought I would.
>>4492387The girl in the middle is probably my favorite out of all the exhibits. She’s so full of life and hope.
>>4492388Obsessed with the teeeeny tiny hand painted matryoshka. The bigger ones are cool and all but she’s so detailed.
>>4492389Also, here’s the film recipe if anyone wants it. I forgot what it’s called but it’s very versatile.

>>4492229Only the top two canon mirrorless has AI NR and only the top tier sony bodies have any chance of adding itMost just lack the hardware to run anything resembling ML. Mfgs have not even updated the batteries originally meant for more efficient DSLRs.
>>4492219Show us the AI generating a coherent 14 bit raw file. No crazy histogram per rawdigger. Expected shadow and highlight recovery per the model. Realistic metadata (which is a lot more than exposure). Correct non image info like masked pixels and sensor state data. I’ll waitFilm is fun but it needs to be more advanced to btfo digital veracity. For film veracity it has to generate a coherent 8 bit, 24-36mp image. Maybe less because film is a medium and the writing process could go through an authentic film camera lens
>>4492247You're really trying to pretend those are real pictures in the guy's gallery, huh
>>4492250I never said a word about the guys gallery its obvious slopThe topic is the principles behind the film and historical public portfolio autism
>>4488224Pretty bizarre. 12 years ago that profile belonged to some boomer with a camera. His photos were mostly pretty shit but they were actually photos.

>>4492302I know exactly what you mean, but for me it was the inverse path to yours.I started on APS-C as my first ILC and used it happily for, I kid you not, close to ten years. My dad has been running FF with an MF prime that whole time and every time I would look at his photos, I could see that the images would just come out differently. Eventually, I ended up buying a FF camera last summer and my images they have that same something that my dad's did, even though I'm running a superzoom.Hard not to be excited about FF with compact bodies like A7C2 and Zf.
>>4492240>DSLRs are the opiate of the massesLmao we're posting cringe in /p/ now? New low for this board
>>4492390DLSRs == Christianity is a pretty great self-own tho.
>>4492291sold it with €250 profit lol
have a pentax kp came with a 35mm f/2.4 autofocus, and cause it was cheap and old and looks cool a 200mm 1979 manual focus lens. I'm gonna be taking wilderness pictures and right now I find everything I take with the 35mm doesn't look good and everything on the 200mm looks awesome its just impossible to actually get anything in frame have to be shooting across water or at an individual bird etc. I'm just wondering what would be the best slightly shorter then the 200mm option and what do you think the best option for shooting in a dense forest almost feels like I need something more pulled back and wider to really capture what is feels like to be surrounded etc
I got this 80s lens cheap but it has this weird shit on inner lens, IPA doesn't do shit. What is this shit and how do I remove it?ITT: glass has cancer.
>>4491045That's some good info, thanks m8.
>>4491047That's all good. Oh and when I said sky, I mean just blue sky with no clouds. This is because it's really bright and really uniform and makes any inconsistencies stand out.
look up the lens elements structure , I am guessing this is most likely degraded cement that keeps duplet elements glued together but due to age its decomposing and so both element are slowly separatingand theres this inner crust, if you feel adventorus disassemble it just this back section and separate both elements carefully then clean up the cement with nail paint removerhttps://www.truelens.co.uk/separating-and-re-cementing-elements
Hard to tell if it is hazing or balsam separation.

We rate them on the couch together, looking at them on the TV, then I delete the bad ones from our Linux server before sending a big archive to cloud.We do this process once a year, around new year's.If anyone is interested, I'll link the github. What other tools would you suggest that have a high WAF "Wife acceptance factor" for this process?
>>4489605Slave morality, imagine taking photos for the approval of others. You're so henpecked it hurts lol
>>4489605Interesting you make this post just as I began using FastStone as my image viewer. I edit in RawTherapee but it is so bad for quickly viewing photos and culling. It’s way too slow. FastStone, on the other hand, gives me a full-screen view with click to zoom and I can press a button to tag the photos I want to keep then sort out the untagged photos into a trash folder. It’s so much better than RawTherapee.
>>4489609And interesting you say that, because our previous app was faststone. I just wanted a more couch friendly / dumbed down UX.
Should industry switch back to film for better skin tones?
>>4474453I can imagine that "the industry" would rather switch to HDR or render the same film in multiple color gradings. Like you get a little option if you want the film to look "lifelike", "vibrant" or "retro"
yeshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KCjMZMxNr-0
>>4477515what do you mean
>>4474517Bright headlight so it looks like a poor snuff film. More and more popular these days
>>4485017Ouch
I'm just a forester with an OM-D E-M10 Mk IV, who like to take photos when I'm out in the field. Clearly I'm not a great photographer, but I do have fun.Lens is a TTArtisan 17mm F1.4
Of course I took this photo right before I spooked all of the ducks.
Last one.Next set of photos will probably be after I get a UV and polarizer in the mail for this lens, or after I find time to go out to cliff with a hell of a view I know of. (lots of people know about it, but it isn't officially a designated recreation area...probably because if you slip you will die, or be left in a state where you regret living)
>>4491344>I'm just a forester with an OM-D E-M10 Mk IVNo you're not just a forester, anon. You are also a gigantic faggot and a victim for buying into the OM system
>>4491999Show us on the doll. Where did Robin Wong touch you?
Sup /p/? I am publishing a zine of anonymous confessions. I'm looking for photo submissions under the theme: confession. Any style. Interpretation entirely up to you.If selected, I will immediately send you a very nice, very large print of your work, as well as a free copy of the publication once it is released.Print will be on Moab 300gsm, 100% cotton rag, matte-finish, archival, art paper.Submit photos at:https://confesszine.com/confessionOr email:info@confesszine.compic related: it's my print shop
>>4487680>but back in the day you could pick up any package as long as you knew the name on it.Duluth?
>time to confess fellow anons>send me your address >link me to your cloud storage>totally not a fedI have a confession for you, my frog folder takes up more storage than my photos.
>>4487691Screenshot your frog folder with how many pictures are in it and submit that. Seems like a great confession to me. Imagine a huge print in your room of that. wowza!
>>4487704made me lol
So this shit not happening?
Does anyone use GIMP for photo editing and manipulation? Has it become a "photographer's program" yet, or is it still clunky and freetarded?
At this point Lightroom/PS combo is the only thing stopping me from ditching Windows. I'd love to see an actually good alternative that does everything those two apps do, but there isn't one.
I use Darktable for editing jpg:s also.
>>4488079It's a good tool overall, but it can't do compositing and layering well or at all. For my product photography, I need both.
>>4485372after learning how to use dt, I don't even like LR and C1 anymoreI could use LR for free because of my work but I don't want all that bloat and bs associated with it
I used GIMP for many years but now I got a job & able to buy Ps & LrC.Bye Bye GIMP!
