I was digitizing a bunch of obscure records and bought a cheapo dslr to take pictures of the record sleeves.
Then I started taking it along on trips and kinda rolled into photography.

Having the camera automatically do that so you don't need to bother, and even showing you the result straight away after you've taken the picture, or so I'd imagine.

Who do you think pays meta's server bills? Is mark zuckerberg siphoning gold pressed latinum from his home planet?

No, they're selling everything they can get on you to the highest bidder. It's not free. You're the product. That's why every change they make is focused on collecting more data not facilitating sharing photography. The whole reels thing was because they wanted to train AI on videos.

You can just make a new flickr account every 1000 photos if you're allergic to the idea of paying someone for their time and effort (you must be a commie)

You can not use instagram without mark zuckerberg exploiting your identity for profit (and you won't ever see a dime). He won't even give you more resolution than is needed for a phone or arbitrary aspect ratios. Why would he give you a dime? You're just his bitch. You post. A chinese bot account gives you a "like and follow". You get $0. Zuck gets $$$$$. No complaints. You accepted the TOS contract.

Sharing photography on youtube makes more sense. At least you'll get some money out of it.

Your choice.

Studio portraits and landscapes, the white man's choice

Practice your portrait business on the premise of being a wedding photographer or else people think you're just trying to get a girl into your basement. Setting up a mobile studio is annoying but eventually people trust you and you can do it at home.

slighty different sensor from a bayer array with one of the green subpixels changed to a blue-green color giving improved color balance
https://www.dpreview.com/reviews/sonydscf828

However for CCD bridgecams and digicams in general the feeling is they give warmer reds and more contrast and less obtrusive noise on SOOC jpegs and the built in color profiles are based more around replicating the film look because that's what people were used to at the time. However the appeal is not universal and tends to center around a few models of CCD cameras with sharper higher quality lenses like the Canon G series. CCD also tends to capture more light per pixel due to the way it's built but this is countered by CMOS having better performance in lower light.

When CMOS took over, color profiles appear to have become more neutral and clinical, especially as raw editing became more common and in-camera jpegs didn't matter so much anymore. Personally I have an older Nikon DSLR made just after the switch to CMOS and it tends to give a greenish cast especially on indoor photos. However more than one photog influencer has demonstrated that with the right presets the difference can be made to be mostly imperceptible. But if you don't wanna fuck around with raws and editing in post, then CCD is an easy way to get close to the vintage or film look with less work.

>>4355614
The point is that there is a low key movement right now towards dedicated use devices over having a do-it-all item like a phone. This dovetails with the whole "mindfulness" trend because using a camcorder is almost ritualistic compared to a phone or even a digicam for video. When you pull out a camcorder you're doing it with more purpose, and you're not geting distracted from whatever notifications are coming on the phone. You're also not thinking of immediately sharing to a story because it's so cumbersome to get the video off the SD card when you're away from your PC.

I guess the other point is that digicams of the era were mostly terrible for video and you were lucky if a DSLR or compact could do 480p or 720p at 30fps while in the same era dedicated camcorders were already capable of full HD.
Also because of EU tax reasons camcorders were classified differently from photo centric cameras and they got hit with a higher tax because they could film more than 30 minutes at a time. This is why digicams and DSLRs were limited to video files less than 30 minutes long, because more video time would put them in the camcorder class with a higher tax.

>>4358048
>raws and editing in post
most phone RAW apps even ship film simul presets ready to use.

Canon basically wants you to just send it in for a CLA if you want an accurate shutter count, so they can squeeze a few more shekels out of you.

Should have bought a Nikon

>>4354854
ask anyone on earth who owns a Mac to open the last photo you took in preview, go to the little i for Inspector, click on the camera tab and there's all your camera info with the explosure # right there.

>>4354854
Liveboot linux from a usb, install gphoto2 and try this:
gphoto2 --get-config /main/status/shuttercounter
You should be able to install it on a mac too but I can't help with that.

Doesn't CanonEosDigitalInfo work with the 80d?

My 5D MKI is the same. For some reason you have to send it in to canon to obtain the shutter count. I wish there was a hack to figure it out.

It's a matter of habit, I would rather just use pirated Premiere since I already know how to use it, than spend X amount of time to learn Resolve and have a castrated experience unless I pay or pirate again.

I get what's good about it, just don't need anything more than Premiere.

You know, the easiest way to get your point through is to make him think of it himself. Maybe ask a question like are you happy with your photos, do you consider them art, do you have any personal stylistic choices, why do you choose to do photography in the first place, if you had to pick a reoccurring theme what would it be. Chasing the next piece of gear is often the thought on my mind rather than visioning how I'd use it.

That being said, other peoples' hobbies are pretty much none of your business. You can try to make a difference but forcing it makes you a shit friend.

Ya'll are the kind of hipster tumblr pseuds to think an underexposed photo of someone smoking contains emotion

You're just conditioned to respond to certain things and not others.

And film (well, at least colour negative) has great cloud detail "out of the box" on landscape photos. Just like in your example scan, even though it seems to be a frame of slide film in fact. It's a nice shot.

Not according to Kodak's own documentation it doesn't.

Get out of your confort zone anon when i loss the spark i join a photography club, its was fun, an have a lot of ghotic B

It happened to me this year...

I`ve kind of couldnt find a reason for why I was photographing, so I wasnt in a moody to bring my camera anywhere. One day, I`ve went on a trip to a city next to mine and tried to photograph a little, and some shots went pretty nice (the feeling that I`ve captured the essence of the good moments, you know?). Since then, Ive started to photograph every week again and changed my camera to a fullframe, bought some new lenses... getting hyped again.

Genuinely, just force yourself to get back into it. I know it sounds dumb, but it really does help

>>4356770
i fixed it by jumping ship to a different camera/lens system after my old shit either broke after years of abuse or sold it after switching
the important part is to not gear-hoard/gear-whore and not have the familiar stuff to fall back on, i threw myself blind into a different mfg, different focal lengths than what i was used to, and in the time spent learning new menus and messing with new lenses i started looking at stuff differently and having fun taking photos again.
your mileage may vary.

>>4355470
Not paying this much for a camera without viewfinder, stabi and tilt screen, that sucks in air and particles every time you turn it on.

>>4355674
You did great.
That's the actual pocket camera you want.
f1.8, standard zoom, tilt screen, high def viewfinder, super fast autofocus.

>>4356887
Actually, you do

Most really good photos were taken by people who subsequently had their cameras lost or destroyed because they were working in shithole warzones and the third world. You can't even go on a multi day hike without a good chance of killing a camera in some of the more scenic places no matter how much olympustax canikony GM weather sealing you pay for

if you're a total sissy and keep it in your bag except when you see a photo (and miss the cool shit), you'll probably lose your bag

People actually buy cameras that develop problems like this?

There are heavily used nikon d200s being offloaded by newspaper employees that are in better condition than a band new ricoh gr apparently

>>4357441
apparently, these compact cameras do. GR line has known popular issues. XF10 has no predecessor, unless one counts the X70 with regards to previous known issues.
I'm sure Canon, panasonic compacts, RX100 line also have few issues here and there, but my well used A6000 has no issues yet. my D80 also had no issues besides the loose rubber grip, until I dropped it 2 feet on a wooden floor, it hit the mount so it sometimes shows error with the lens. the VR on my nikon lens doesnt work since the rubber inside loosened. my D90 has an issue with a Sigma lens, it only focuses in AF-C, but paired with D80, no issues with AF-S.
these are just consumer grade cameras and lenses.

>>4357522
>'m sure Canon, panasonic compacts, RX100 line also have few issues here and there,
in fact they do, similar issues to the GR, and basically any small compact that sucks in its lens on shutdown. the canon powershot S90/100 series was notorious for the lens conking out. it's the nature of the sucky sucky lens design
