>>4500624Yes, by "wide enough DoF" I meant ~10cm maybe 20cm and not paper thin. Super telephoto compression is crazy. I usually use f/11 on mine if the light allows just to have enough leverage for the bird to stay in focus, wide open is f/5.6.

My neighbours have a bougainvillea that flowers in the most insane electric dayglo fuchsia purple colour that I've ever seen, even by the standards of bougainvillea.
Not really a flower but it kinda looks like one. >>4492474Now i want to try and take a pic like this... it's so unusual and incredible
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

>>4500540He’s right, you know. All “pixel peeping” means is “other people succeeded in life where I failed”.
>>4500614I wanted to try a green palette but the results really didnt work out very much. The purple one made the picture completely unreadable. This blue/red palette seems to work for quite a lot of stuff instead but i really know nothing about color theory so i dont really know why.
>>4500614unfortunatly i dont have any real project... i really like photography but i really lack of ideas or inspiration and every pic i take i feel like it's boring. At least editing photos like this is fun.
Why has the world abandoned photo shoots of good looking women?99% of anything I see now is selfies and if its a photoshoot its just to sell clothing or some super generic looking agency testshoot. 10 years ago or whatever the world was full of every good looking girl doing multiple photoshoots just for content. What happened?

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.
>>4498342It's surprisingly fun, and you can capture a large amount of detail (as long as it's a still subject). Be sure to bring a tripod, though. Don't be like me and try to balance a 135mm prime in the wind with no built-in stabilizer.
Picked up a 2014 Nokia Lumia 930 with its 20mp camera (and a cracked screen, broken sim port and non-functioning flash) for £5. Fun for some larger resolution 'Xpan' photos.
Nokia Lumia 930.
Stitched years ago with Hugin (I think) from bunch 2015 AW100 handheld snaps. Camera also has a builtin panorama mode with artifacts galore handheld.I used to post location tagged stuff to Panoramio before before Google devoured it. (68°16'21.0"N 28°11'46.4"E, altitude 632m)
>>4500620As I posted previously, this is something to try (I haven't finished with these old Windows Phones yet). The only 'real' camera I've owned that had a panorama mode was my first digital camera – a Canon Powershot A70. I remember it being pretty good, but I never really used it.

Hello, /p/. I love traffic lights since I was a kid, and I'm trying to take pictures of traffic lights. I'm still learning the basics of photography, so any feedback is greatly appreciated. I hope one day I can afford a professional camera, but for now they're shot on my shitty phone camera. Thanks.
>>4498230I don't know an exact date. As a kid, I've always thought that Traffic Lights were like humans with emotions. I thought of each signal phase as an emotion. Whenever I would talk to my English & Art teachers about it, they would always say that inanimate objects have no emotion. Over time, as GE's & old Fortrans get replaced with new Econolite & Fortran signals, to me it feels like a bunch of nice old people passing away. There are a few remaining incandescent bulbs remaining, but they're far away in some old towns. I plan to take a week off work, and travel around my province & take pictures of some old traffic signals. People might not care, and that's fine. I just feel like we're losing a tremendous amount of history & stories people had at those intersections with those old lights.
It's also really nice to see people also take photos of traffic signals. All of these posts are really cool. I love the night time shots, the Austrian traffic signal, and the infamous German Walking signal. I wish to go to Germany to see them in person. They're all beautiful photos. Thank you, /p/.
>>4497555I love the glow of this Japanese traffic signals. This one looks both old, and new. The lights brightness looks like it's LED, but the signal head looks like it was made for incandescent bulbs.
I took this new-ish Fortran traffic light when I was visiting my friend. Sorry for the quality, I had to rush before the light turned red, and a cop was directing traffic. I also couldn't upload the raw image due to 4chan's file size limit.
I found these pair of 3M lights when visiting a nice friend. I don't come down this area as often, so it was quite a surprise to see them. This makes me hopeful that small towns kept their old traffic lights. Watching them get replaced with new LEDs is a stark reminder of my mortality at times.
What makes Japan such an desired place for photography? I'm really trying to understand the hype around it. When I visited of course the size of Tokyo itself opens lots of opportunities but I quickly notice that it gets repetitive rather fast. All muh taxis look the same, the buildings have a pattern that repeats a lot. If you've seen a few shrines/temples.. in the end they all look the same. Even if you visit other prefectures you won't see much of a difference. Whenever I see camera vlogs or flickr uploads in Japan I now tend to skip because it's always the same. My current number one location would probably be Germany. Still safe enough to bring your camera with you, every state has it's own architectural style. Towns are usually a comfy mix between old medieval houses in the center with grim 60s bauhaus constructions that look really odd. Also home of Leica where this sort of everyday compact photography started. What do you think? What's your prefered location?
>>4500519Just checked the metadata since the files actually look more vibrant in the image viewer than in the browser, looks like I saved them as straight RGB, so colours are probably getting nerfed on the webNeed to fix that
>>4500520putting my mistake out there, at least it's easy to fix, just batch convert the whole lot
>>4500515>How is it to own a sports car in Japan? Need to be rich?>WRX>Sports car>Richkek>And then all the gaijin exporting muh JDMs increasing the cost of purchase too. Don't forget a vehicle must be at least 25 years old be legally imported into the United States.>space for parkingGenerally you would have a place with parking before even making that purchase. I know a lot of cities have that as requirement and measure out your space especially Tokyo.>always for the lookout on new locations to take pics but unfortunately no fun is allowed here. Can't do any cool mods (not even Volk/advan wheels). And whenever I drive at night and park somewhere I get harassed by police.Why the fuck would the police care about taking photos of your car? I guess Germany really is lost.>>4500517The "Y-Plate" community is one of indignation and broken dreams but we persist. Also fun fact the Y doesn't stand for Yankee but Yokohama because after the war it was the first working port GIs used during SCAP, and I do believe the area by the red brick warehouses and where I took my photo is one of the spots. Police generally don't harass Y-Plates but you are at a higher risk of getting stopped for DUI checks and I guess maybe vandalism.Also ABC over .03 is DUI, any BAC above .05 is a felony in nippon, not only that the passengers can get charged too and the provider of the alcohol (I.e bar).

>>4499817colors look good, but its too clean imo, dont be afraid of some noisealso i would remove the stones(?) in the middle of the foreground, theyre really distracting
>>4499919I really like it.
>>4499817Queenstown?
>>4499817Crop a little from below, that much close foreground is distracting, at most 10% of width.Also if you have the ability to visit this location again they try doing star trails, i see some bright stars, that will give some good trails.Also the sky would most likely become blue, if you take the whole evening or pre dawn. But i wonder if that purple hue that one gets from a setting sun, if it is possible to capture in a star trail shot, given for how short it exists, maybe fking around with the white balance might do it.Also take a hdr composite, if you feel like adding detail in the hills
>>4499816i think the color adds to the intensity nicely'>>4499919>>4500017thanks for the feedback. i'm not sure.. i kind of like a soime distraction in the foreground. maybe i'll dial it back but leave some space and detail there. i don't have any plans to return soon. It i ever head out that way again, i'll be shooting much better vistas and hopefully human subjects.you can see a tiny bit of star trail already, but that was a 30s exposure. so i'm sure it would be possible to preserve the color on an exposure long enough for dramatic trails. i will not be doing any hdr composites. multiple exposures i can consider, but i hate hdr. >>4500016lake isabella in california
Lets talk about Lars Tunbjörk. I’d say he is the house god for us Swedish photographers and wannabe photographers (me).There are a gazillion images and photographers from the US, from the early 1900s and onwards. Just by capturing 1980s and 1990s Sweden his work stands out, add to that his sharp witty eye, flash and surrealism.

one of my favourite phone pics i've ever taken. it was beautiful here and it was a great night.
5.4 is out, what do we think bros?
>>4500398I do pay them. On Lightroom.It is interesting how sensitive you are on some random criticism on the internet (and valid criticism not just "it's shit lol"). Are you involved in the project perhaps? If yes then why are you here bitching when you could work on the project instead? Also how would the general community react if they discovered that the Darktable team is deeply involved in the anonymous nazi website 4chan?
>>4500394I do use Arch, so I guess I never encountered that. You might be right that it is not the right software for you if there is some kind of worse performance outside of Arch.I do not want service from open source software. I want to be given the option to fix things on my own and in whatever way I think is best, or to choose from how other people have fixed it and published their fixes, rather than being held to whatever service the manufacturer deems best. It hasn't come up for me with Darktable specifically but the principle would still apply. I understand that approach isn't for everyone though, so I would never hold it against someone for using something else. It sounds like it works better for you, and that's great. It doesn't affect me at all.>>4500400It's not a normal progression of thoughts to go from light criticism to assuming some kind of top down conspiracy against you. He probably just doesn't like how you're talking about it rather than having some personal involvement in the project.
>>4500400Acting as if you were their paying customer when you aren't one is not valid criticism, it's you acting like a low IQ third worldist schizo.
>>4500398>>4500414As a darktable chad of course you can criticise the software, especially in such a sensible way as anon did. Its not perfect. Just better than the "alternatives"
>>4489604I paid for these fucking software gougers for twenty years and got shitty old buggy half-baked software out of it while they paid themselves hundreds of thousands of dollars and put swimming pools in their fucking offices, I’m not giving them another fucking dime. Fuck these cunts and their grossly unethical ai trash, I’ll freeload on the cracked versions that already exist for the rest of my days just fine, fuck all yall.
Ones you've actually used.Give reasons.1. Panasonic - pleasing JPEG, best QOL - lots of features that work well.2. Fujifilm - decent but I didn't like the JPEG detail rendering.3. Olympus / OM system - decent, but I don't didn't like the JPEG colors (tans pushed to red).4. Sony - lots of features on paper but they're half-baked and riddled with needless incompatibilities.
>>4499376there's a workaround for Nikon by using a picture profile which converts pure white to black (or colour of your choice), but it will also be saved in the JPG so you need to shoot RAW + JPG.I find it amazing that in 2026 only a few camera makers have figured out that Zebras are useful in stills mode as well as video mode.
>>44971401. Sony (A7RIV) - Good AF, decent build quality, 61 mpx, 2 memory card slots, can take some lighter rain, decent battery life. Cons? My nose always activates some track focus point while looking through the viewfinder, guess it was made for flat asian noses and not longer european ones. The ”color simulations” are very basic and boring. I’ve never used a Fujifilm but I assume that they are more fun to use but less potent.Its also bulky and draws alot of attention in the streets.2. Ricoh (GRiiix HDF) - Sharp lens, pocketable and stealthy in the street. Decent image stabilization. Feels plasticy, impossible to clean lens from dust (which always gets into it for all owners), superbad battery life, shit AF, shit high ISO performance, 24 mpx isnt quite enough as I want to be able to crop, no weather sealing, no viewfinder.I don’t care about brands really, as long as it feels good and have the features I want such as good AF, weather sealing and at least a 40 mpx sensor. I almost never use the Ricoh.
>>4497140I have used Panasonic, Nikon, and Fujifilm.First I had the Panasonic GM1 - this was my first camera. I genuinely liked this but it had limitations with dynamic range that were challenging. Then lenses were cheap and reasonably good IQ considering the crop factor.I then upgraded to Nikon Z6, a great camera but sadly, the autofocus was not great. Fine for everyday, but not that good for wildlife or sports etc. The lenses were fantastic, I loved this camera for landscapes and astrophotog especially. I regret selling this. I now have Fujifilm X-T4, I bought this when it was on sale and local store gave me a good deal on 100-400mm. Autofocus is pretty good in my experience, image quality is ok, but overall it just feels cheaper than the Nikon. I try and take advantage of the Film simulations and programmable recipes, but this has been a learning curve and I am still not there with it. I shoot jpeg + raw. Jpegs are fine as quick photos to share, but I always want to edit the raws pretty much. I like the Bluetooth and Fuji app for cell. This is a lot more functional than other brands I have used, you can also tether and use as a webcam. This camera is fine but I would prefer the Nikon I had. The sigma primes are a good match for it.
>>4499493it's more that people shooting photos don't know about video tools like scopes, parades, false color et al. if they did, manufacturers would add the features
