guys pls help... my tc-201 got stuck on Helios 81n and I can't remove it.the lever is half way down and has slight play, but there's no way I can get it to move, I can't get any shims anywhere, and the screws on the back of the tele are stuck and I even stripped one... is there anything can be done? I smacked it tried rotating and whatever else, do I need to drill out the screws on the back of the tele now?the aperture ring is overhanging so I can't get to the pin itself...
>>4524203not an option everything is closed and I'm poor
I took the front of the lens out but still can't get to the latch, need to take apart more but not sure how
>>4524211nvm it can't be reached like that.I'm fucked. I have to drill.
You need to take apart the tele, although the stripped screw is a problem. I'd try to get a good screwdriver that bites into the screws that you can take out first, also use WD40.
>>4524244I tried penetrating oil and acetone, didn't budge.I think I'll try ordering a micro tap set to try and unscrew it like that.hopefully it works and I won't have to drill.
groundskeepers and hikers unite!post your most grandiose landscapes
>>4523775Thanks for the compliments. First pic is low tide at ao neng Thailand, Second pic, Andes foothills along the way to MP f/8. Wish I had some tip or critiques for you, but I’m a noob too. Nice pic tho, I appreciate the foreground consideration
im shy lol
>>4523740Oh cool! Ao Nang was awesome when I went, sadly didn’t get to stay that long. Should have spent all my time there instead of Phuket.
I thought freeware was a meme until I tried RawTherapee and Darktable, and quickly realized the amount of neetbucks I would've saved had I not used Lightroom sooner. I don't even take pictures regularly. Why do photographers shill a corporation with comical levels of greed?
>>4523835C1 is TOP MINTLR is MINTPS is ALMOST MINTHowever,PS is required for heavier edits / more "creative" shit. You theoretically could just use GIMP for that but unfortunately PS is just better. If your edits are more standard and serviced by the photo software alone sufficiently, then you're much better off with C1 perpetual. With that in mind I'd avoid LR and just go C1+PS if needed.

Color doesn't matter. Today when you can adjust colors just by pressing a button there's nothing more fake than a color. You should only shot B&W. Black and White photography is real and pure. Shape, shadow and light - this is what makes your photography look special, not some bright oversaturation. If your picture looks good without colors then your picture is worthy
>>4522400The American is immunized against all dangers: one may call him an unwashed pleb, academically bricked, brainlet, neuron-deficient or brandfag, it all runs off him like water off a raincoat. But display some signs of being cultured and you will be astonished at how he recoils, how injured he is, how he suddenly shrinks back: "I’ve been found out".

I thought he was le gay? Or did he just hire a model to beat the allegations?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3BG-5n_lxpI
>>4522971> When you are so obsessed with being gay you believe a random youtuber who almost never talk about his personnal life and shows 0 sign of gayness is gay and his wife is a model he hired to """beat the allegations""" (actually just your mental illness)

I should join, win some and then mog /p/ with timestamped photos of my trophies. jk lol, I can't go to Siena in Autumn and I can't inject poz into my work no matter the reward. Tegridy, as they say. But find me a respectable contest even if funded by a faggot billionaire and I'll be glad to join.

why do stock photos always have this ugly neutral, super low contrast look? does it have a name? I call it the 'unsplash look', but I don't know why this is so popular. it looks cheap and it is not eye-catching at all.
>>4524074>They posted collage of entirely differently edited photosits not a collage it's just a screenshot from some stock photo site as an example
>>4524070You are so out of touch it's painful. AI hasn't generated obvious artifacts like 6 fingers in YEARS at this point. Holy shit get with the times
>>4524084The photos in OP post are not AI retard, the stock site in question does not allow AI photos
>>4524089>They don't allow it therefore it doesn't happen.double digit iq we are dealing with here
>>4524096You're retarded if you think stock sites can't tell the difference between ai photos and real ones when uploaded
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?
>>4515454why? are you a zoomer incel/femcel?
>>4502542Go on instagram and find a model. Message her and ask her what her rates are.Once you have a portfolio it is much easier to find TFP models.
>>4481290Most of them aren't.You have a handful who make ridiculous money (literally - the top 10 earners account for over a quarter of all onlyfans revenue), and the rest who are making basically fuck all.
>>4517308That is true of every industry ever, it doesn't mean having a job isnt profitable.
OP isnt trying
Going to dump a bunch of photos I've taken over time, enjoy. Criticism and feedback is welcome since I want to know what anons think or what I could do better.
>>4523917that's just another version of the "photo is good because I like it". "There is no skill to drawing because I like this drawing in which I see no skill". Whatever question you encounter in life, you can always answer "it depends, it's a matter of personnal preference". Relativism is not an opinion, is just a basic concept to keep in mind and remember most things are ultimately subjective. By denying the skill ceilings are different when learning photo and drawing, you're just refusing to think.
>>4523917Unironically looks kino, reminds me of some of those weird drawings you'd see in 1920s upper class magazines or something.
>>4523484>>4523499>>4523446I like these ones. Adelaide is boring as fuck too so nice job.
>>4523926never there was any mention of "skill" in this conversation.it takes more skill to break the rules than follow them.

>>4514476How retarded would it be to use stock video that is similar to my skill level to fluff up my portfolio to appear larger than it is. I've come to realize how big of an advantage you are able to gain from lying about your background and experience after the Cambridge professor.
>>4523785meh, it can't hurt if you can recreate that image.HOWEVER, they recognize the stock footage and be turned off that you used it on "your" portfolio.
>>4523785both retarded and bitchmade, a betrayal of artistic intention

How long can you let it sit after exposing but before developing? Online I see everything from "you should develop within a few days of exposure" to "you can leave it up till its expiry date no problem". I asked a local camera shop and they said 6-10 months before you start to see degradation depending on the film. Who's telling the truth? I don't remember ever worrying about this back when I was using disposable cameras for everything.
>>4520365>I dont find that much difference inbetween the shots i took on 2018 and 2023Maybe worth mentioning degradation speed is logarithmic with time. I bought a roll of portra 400 in a shop that was not air conditioned during a 33°c+ heatwave and it was already too degraded for the result to be professional. But i'm sure it could have stayed in the shop for months and I would still have had a clear image, only fogged and color shifted.
>>4520365looks like the streets from eyes wide shut. shame it's so disheveled.
>>4520311I have a few rolls from 2003-2007, I'll let you know. There are photos of a hooker getting arrested on one of them, I'll post those.
>>4520311From what I've been told, it's temperature that matters the most. I had some film that had been exposed and then passed expiry by 3 years and it looked completely fine when I developed it, I didn't need to push it or any of that shit. So just keep it cool and it can last a good amount of time.I think the only thing that is affected no matter what is shadows after some amount of time, so you'll end up with lost details in really dark parts of the image. So maybe develop night photos ASAP in that case.
>>4520311Store your exposed film in the freezer -> It will last as long as you want. Many Many years. Store your film in a cupboard... Could last a few years and be fine. It all depends how hot your cupboard gets and how long you want to heat cycle it your film over many summers...I store all my film, exposed and unexposed in the freezer.
I am going to post random images I made which I have also edited and I would love my /p/iss bros to give me feedback on my composition, but mostly editing style... or direct me towards an editing style that would fit me.>feedback on composition>feedback on editing>direct my towards my own styleStarting with opening image...
>>4502387I made this picture better. I think I improved a little also in my editing skills.
>>4519436Here something new on my travels. Since then I feel like I have taken enough photos and have been chilling since. Photo gear is collecting dust. Want to travel again, this time to northern Poland or even Prag (in August). Still unsure, due to the temperature, which just takes the fun out of sight seeing.(pic related taken on same Island)

would it be technically possible to control ISO and shutter speed (if electronic) on a per pixel basis?
>>4523753>iso is just the exposure slider in photoshopholy retard
>>4523765With more and more linear ISO invariance sensors it pretty much is, you might get a second base ISO at 400 or 600 where thenoise reduction hardware kicks in but pretty much any high ISO shot is just this base ISO digitally clipped and exposure increased, very similar to increasing the exposure slider. The noise will be the same, all exposure properties will be the same. It has been for 10 years.
don't know where else to ask this but you lot seem savvy enough What is the easiest way to have a GPS app running on my phone while shooting photos, and then I dump the photos and the geolocation data to my computer and have the nearest/interpolated location attached to the EXIF of each photo?
>>4523318>>>4523318>control ISO and shutter speed (if electronic) on a per pixel basisWhy not do in post process on the raw pixels? Cannot see a different outcome.
>>4523778Dual conversion gain sensors are not noise reduction hardware you dunning kruger ass schizo retard snoyimIts basically turning off a high dynamic range circuit that stores more charge to switch to a more sensitive and less noisy one that cant store as much charge but detects finer increments. Noise reduction is what pentax does. No extra light is stored. No extra shadows are detected. Its just a noise reduction slider on a chip for when the camera processor is too weak to run a good NR algorithm. Modern sensors read both of these circuits simultaneously (sony a7v, lumix s1rii, om om1ii) or sequentially (lumix g9ii).
