>>4511327Nice bunch of photos, mate. D'ya like mine?
>>4512399not bad, but it could be better. there's some vignetting in the top left, the branch on the top right is taking away from a clear view and the horizon would be better position towards the lowest third of the frame since there's so much negative space. exposure is decent though and the mist adds mood. do I like it? no, not as a whole. i only like some things about it.
>>4512401Cool, thanks for the feedback bro. I like photography but never really tried or read anything. Took that on me s23 a while back. What books did you read when starting your photography?
>>4512401Also, this one os my favourite of the ones itt>>4511345
>>4512401>>4512401Actually found another from the same park.

>>4511938you'll probably just see panavision-arri-cooke supremacy
>>4511936Maybe that will change since Arri got bought.
>>4511936yes, their problem was that they made movie cameras instead of cheap consumer cameras.no wait that's retarded
Make films for yourself because those who believed in you liked them for you, not for these audiences, and fuck that old guy on a Sony FS7 who called you an idiot for trying to get photos under a bridge. Be you. You want to know what type of videos most people like that is gay? Justin Bieber music videos. Fuck people, make your art.
>>4512384This.
Who the fuck likes this focal length? What is its purpose?
>>4462866What bro? If u arent flashing random people walking by in NYC with a 28mm lens on a Leica, are u even taking PHOTOGRAPHS? Bro….
>>4509780>If you use a lens with a wider than human FoVHuman vision has an FoV of about 200 degrees.
I bought the Fuji XF 18mm because it is smol and perfect for citytrips. And because of the crop factor it's a 27 or 28mm equivalent. So that's it.
Great for snapshits which is pretty much all I take
It gets more in frame without getting too distorted.
>photography hero grows oldIt's not fair bros
>>4512228There are some cute girls who think they are going to be ansel adams walking around nyc talking pictures that have been taken 10 gorillion times but I like looking at them so the blogs are decently comfy :3
>>4512047>average B&H spokesman
Had to unsubscribe when he started talking about the holocaust and how it for sure happened and was totally real.
>>4512282Fair enough. I want a photography gf but idk where the fuck I would even start with trying to find one, but it sure as fuck won't be on /p/.
>>4512295The Canon EOS RP review he did, where he just randomly started performing metzitzah b'peh, really turned me off of his content to be honest
I've been figuring out which camera body and lens to get. I want something that takes really nice pictures. Over the years I asked /p/ a few times, but each time they just ranted about consumerism and skills and how only the elect are worthy of nice thingsCan someone just give me some real world recommendations? Based on cameras and lenses you have or have used.
>>4505251>Over the yearsBro, just set a budget and buy something. The differences between cameras and lenses in each budget is negligible. If you want a starting point. Just buy a Sony APS-C or Olympus OM-D that's in your price range. If you want to take pictures of birds and animals, get a m4/3 with long focal length. If you want to take pictures of people and the city, get a short one. You are not going to be out performing the gear as a noob. The nuanced differences between lenses and bodies are going to be lost on you.
Genuinely curious, I've been shooting on the D850 for years now and i keep hearing from everyone that i need to upgrade to mirrorless for all sorts of reasons, but I've yet to use a mirrorless autofocus system that beats a DSLR in terms of speed and accuracy. Is it actually worth getting into mirrorless? I shot as a second at a wedding over the weekend and the main photographer burned through 4 batteries using an r6ii, while I only used one and got nearly 2000 frames out of it. I know the lenses are better in terms of raw resolving power, but lord above is the whole mirrorless ecosystem expensive. I'm wondering if i should save my money and just get another D850 with a longer lens instead?
>>4505251You should get the Nikon P1100 and BTFO globeheads
>>4512313D850 is the finest general purpose DSLR ever made, and would be my pick if I ever went back.>but I've yet to use a mirrorless autofocus system that beats a DSLR in terms of speed and accuracy.This has already been the case for many years. Even with early mirrorless, I found it slower, but more accurate.It wont improve your images, but mirrorless does offer tons of quality of life improvements. For me:>greater lens adapatability, f-mount sucks bigtime here, much better manual focus support, better native lenses>better AF functionality, subject detection, eye AF, greater AF range across the frame, less reliant on center focus points, no af fine-tuning>smaller and lighter, even a GFX100s is smaller and lighter than a D850>wysiwyg for easy exposing and more reliable focus confirmation, live preview of scene in b&w>more fps, larger buffers, better silent shooting, pre-captureBattery power is less (but still greater than if you used your D850 in live view all the time), but you also now get USB-C charging or can simply run off a power bank, which I value much more than having more shots per battery. 3-4 is a good average for a full day wedding, but I never use more than one on a given day unless I'm traveling and shooting nonstop.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GisPpV2Jnp0Comment too long.

>>4505251You can't go wrong with a Canon camera at whichever price point you get them. They're not optimal -- Canon market gating makes sure of that -- but if you take shit photos it's because you're a shit photographer and not because you got a bad camera.R8, R6ii, R7, R50, get what you can afford.Canon is probably the best bet for growing your system to a pro-system eventually, but that's probably not you. Don't even try. Waste money and switch systems later if you get to that point, instead of wasting money now.RE: APS-C. stfu ff-fagots, your shitty pictures are not because of the sensor size, it's because you're a shitty photographer. FF didn't change that for you, it just let you take shitty photos with shallower depth of field which gets the girl you talk to on facebook but never meet up with saying "wow looks like you took that on a professional camera, anon". Besides the fact that right after that message she got railed by some chud you love to hate, note she was complimenting your camera, not your photography.Fujifilm is pretty cool. They make cameras for photographers. They're nice to use. Not the best choice for professional photography (capable tho), but a good choice if you want to just enjoy the hobby.Sony is for autists and people who just buy the camera recommended by autists.OM-System is cool if you want to get into wildlife and birds with a lower cost and lighter weight. Also cool if you just want to maximize portability/weight and have something super easy to throw into a jacket pocket on a casual night out.Nikon is pretty cool ig too. They're offering really good value right now.Anything I didn't mention has nothing going for it, or what it has going for it is irrelevant and is mostly just shit youtube shills push.>>4505841not a bad choice. It's a good platform to get serious and start taking good photos.>>4512355D850 is GOAT, with K1-ii a close second. Massive, heavy things tho that discourage a more casual side of photography.
What do I say when normies rebuke me for taking pictures of people in public without their knowledge?If I say they're in public and shouldn't expect to never have their picture taken; they still say it's creepy, voyeuristic, and an invasion of privacy.
>>4512206>Using a camera to photograph/record is no different than using your eyes to look Wrong, because your eyes are for you only, a photo is implying a forever record that can be looked by everyone. The rest of your words is communist drivel, let's just own it and be shameless, it is legal.>>4512208Enough about you ya nophoto sodomite>>4512268You touch upon the real problem, the risk vs. the result and the morals over this dilemma, a friend of mine loves doing street but morphed his style to a very safe form (wide-angle panorama) because he hated seeing seasoned photogs being social pests and weirdos all over the place, it is obvious but he needed to see it to realize your end product might be good but everyone in said street will frown upon you if not downright mark you for a beating if you return, especially in a small town where hectic pedestrian movement is not a thing.Japs and city slickers in the US might get away with it but it's a slightly different story elsewhere, and even then some of those places' experts forfeited the social norms to do it often.Once again a sneaky solution is being obvious about it and having a photojournalist ID/attire over you so people see your shenanigans as "normal"
>>4512286>your eyes are for you onlyRetarded. The pictures I take are for me only because I dont share them, but the things I see with my eyes I write precisely descriptive essays about and post online. Oh yeah, I have a photographic memory so I produce photorealistic drawings of strangers that I post online.If you go out in public without creating your own privacy you have given me implicit consent to photograph you, and I will. Please try and attack me because I will pepper spray you and post the video online.>communist drivelYou say nophoto, but you're a noargument. Kek
>>4512289>Oh yeah, I have a photographic memory so I produce photorealistic drawings of strangers that I post onlineYou could be an even more formidable drawing artist yet you handicap yourself putting time to such a passive hobby like photography>Please try and attack me because I will pepper spray youWhere do you keep your mace and how do you deploy it if you are wielding a camera? an irate ex-con will slap you before you take it out from your cargo shorts
>>4512290I use a camera and a bodycam to produce references to make sure my drawings remain up to a level I would call photorealistic. Sometimes I even add fabricated details to my drawings. Sometimes I write down people's private information that I glean off them when they're using it in public. I just have a little file I keep, but I don't use it for fraud or distribute it so it is fine.>maceIm not an ultra lanklet like you and can carry a camera in one hand LOL. Oddly enough everyone that doesn't want to be filmed/photographed walks right in fromt of my recording camera to ask me to stop recording them. If you have street sense the mace is extremely quick.
>>4512177It can depend on how you're dressed and what you look like. If you look sort of like you're a journalist or professional, people will figure you're just taking some stock image for a news article or that you're working for your city for a tourism thing maybe. I typically go in business casual and some people will actually try to be in the photo and subtly try to pose in it as a result.
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.
Some people say that to get rich you gotta do what others don't wanna do. For a photographer it means going to a warzone. What are some other fields in photography that can make you rich and famous but you just hate doing it?
>>4510297This. But be warned, other real estate photographers can be really aggressive about their business and don't want anybody else muscling in. The rivalry is insane. I was with one local photography company and ended up with a clause in my contract that had me agree to not work in that industry again within a 100 mile radius for 2 years if I left.
photojournalism is really fun
>>4504864>product photographyThat's gonna be dead quite fast. Take a photo of a product with your iphone and ask chatgpt to make a nice product photo out of it with any theme or background you like. It's gonna end up better than what most product photographers can achive. And it's free and fast. And it's also one of the AI fields where you don't immediatelly can tell that it's AI.
>>4504586Most real estate agents just use wide mode on their iphones now since the quality is fine for the resolutions posted on internet listings. Only the higher end real estate (multi million dollar homes) will be photographed by someone professional. Some of them even have a cheap DJI drone for the neighborhood aerials, and no they hardly ever have a commercial drone operating license and nobody cares.
>>4512185Accurate. Real estate photographers are still around but shits changing rapidly, there's also some new AI app that will do the HDR look without bracketing now and agents are really picking it up. All real estate agents really need to do now is learn composition and AI will do the rest of the editing for them.
Hello /p/I saved a RX100 M7 from the bin after customer returned it without it's box and accessories.I know it’s not a pro camera with fancy lenses and such, but is it good? Photography interests me but I never mustered the motivation to buy a nice setup. Do you have any recommendations on what to do / not do?
>>4510720iPhone 17
>>4510613>Canon has a green tint nowdpreview really is retarded
>>4505220It has more glass and bigger sensor than a smartphone. Smartphones uses algo and ai to molest the picture to look half decent.
>>4505220Not even close, it's a lot better than a smartphone and even a shitty compact camera from a decade ago manages that. Most phones max out at 12mp and still have a lot of processing junk, so even those ones that claim to be more than 12mp are just using pixel binning to achieve a higher mp amount. OP could buy a Canon Powershot from the early 2010s and still be better off than using his phone.

Insta and whatever else thread for wherever anons post their photos.https://www.instagram.com/mondatta.photography/Do any of you tend to go for certain themes and styles? Or just try anything?
>>4511988yeah but, what's the point of follow people just for obbligation and not for actually liking their work? there are people getting offended by not being follow back, i really dont get it >>4512203so you do it for clout
>>4512240sorry, the last one was meant for >>4512198
>>4512240>there are people getting offended by not being follow back, i really dont get it I think it's just one single guy since I remember seeing someone have the exact same meltdown in previous threads. He's also wrong too, the people he bitched about dipping out did reply and follow people during the first month of this thread, you can literally see it by scrolling to the top. He's probably just pissed off that he posted in this thread when it ran out of steam months later and nobody was checking in anymore.
