What's /p/'s opinion on one of the most viewed (online) photographers?
>Sex And Takeout is an ongoing viral series on the unnecessary and unkind social boundaries and cultural taboos forced upon women’s bodies. By indulging in sex and junk food, Bahbah proposes a celebration of the self. Inspired by her personal battle with disordered eating, Sex And Takeout is a declaration of overcoming guilt and shame. Through this series, Bahbah unpacks expectations of femininity and challenges her own standards of beauty.

Gluttony as a glorification of the self IS a male vice.
>I am the manliest man here. I can eat more, and worse, food than anyone else. I eat pizza every day. I eat burgers for breakfast and steak for lunch. Beer is my water. Whisky is my blood. Salad and quiche are for gay fucking bitches. I'm having a great time. Et tu, BITCH?
This is distinctly male. It's a masochism ritual adjacent to eating whole hot peppers raw. It's a low grade pain/eating bitterness test. It is distinctly masculine.

And regardless of what it is, it is BAD FOR EVERYONE INVOLVED AND SHOULD NEVER BE ENCOURAGED.

>that education is a Jewish conspiracy brainwashing the children
Oh, certain facets of education are absolutely jewish conspiracies. Critical race theory and modernized equity (each maintain jews as a people who deserve to remain distinct and privileged) are distinctly jewish concepts. They are mandated by jewish religious belief. Another jewish aspect of education is framing all american wars as for global peace when they only advance israeli interests and establish central banks which inevitably tie back to 100% jewish families that owe their wealth to charlamagne. You know jews exist and aren't a boogeyman right? They are the white privilege you heard so much about.

Until they're sick of non-jews, then they're not white. They're oppressed.

everybody taking about the moon itt needs to be executed

also what the fuck is dishonest photography? any image at all could be considered dishonest because it is a single view of a single instant of a subject or event, its like how people talk about how much they hate "bias" or "indoctrination/propaganda" when what they really mean is they dont like it when others treat a perspective other than the mainstream perspective on a topic as true
for example:
>teaching kids in school to be liberal capitalists = cool and normal
>teaching kids that liberalism and or capitalism might be bad = evil indoctrination and brainwashing
literally every perspective is biased and its the same with photography literally every image could be considered a lie based on the intentions of the person framing the image
i think the only thing that could actually be considered dishonest is how people use an image to make their audience feel, if i took a photo of a dead Palestinian killed by an israeli JDAM and the zog used the photo to say it was actually hamas who killed the kid or to say it was somehow the kids fault he god the bomb dropped on his head that would be dishonest but the photo would not be

Capitalism does not exist. It was invented as a strawman to propagandize neo-feudalism aka the unending struggle towards real communism.

And its greatest triumph is convincing americans that its real and business are the equals of the state or else the entire country is logically obligated to go full commie.

You will also find this “jedi” mind trick in other debates. And not just lefty insanity like veganism and population replacement either. It is also used by the right wing. You must adhere to ____ or your world will end if you ever stop being a hypocrite, and anyone can do anything they want and you cant logically complain. Know this trick. Fear it. Hate it.
And remember the more you acknowledge ISM dichotomies the more powerful they become.

>also what the fuck is dishonest photography?
The Bahbah thread is a great example of it. Photography done with the pretense that it's presenting some deep truth when it's just navel-gazing erotica peppered with some critic bait. The faux rebellious aspect of it is also part of the dishonesty. The photographer is playing it safe while pretending to be some daring maverick. The idea that it's speaking truth to power when it's actually just power talking. It's corrupt to the core, there's no sincerity in it.
Another example, hobotography.

Which do you think is more useful for Architecture photography - a Panoramic tripod head? Or A Tilt Shift lens?

Noobie photographer here, what is a panoramic tripod head?

Does it have angle locking, because it seems like the thing in the OP does, and I'm considering that for what I say in >>4486909
>>
>>4488024
Have you ever tried using the search bar on a web browser to find info about unfamiliar things? (I suggest trying duckduckgo before Google cause platform decay slop.)

A $€£ 5 round bubble level might help getting camera pointing straight down with whatever tripod+head you have. (Fancy head will not help if your tripod is a wobbly toy.)

If you need to scan documents / books borrow, rent or buy a document / book scanner. From quick glance to a € 104.40 one on sale at Amazon(de) the bundled software can flatten and split pages and remove background and fingers. (Dunno if that scanner is any good or +1000% tarifed in Murica.)
>>
>>4488217
I did a lot of searching on this a year or so ago and wasn't able to find much at the time, but since I'm not knowledgeable on photography I figured it was possible I simply wasn't using the right terminology

I'm not just wanting a level, because that still introduces room for my tweaking to be slightly off if by eye I don't notice the level not being actually entirely level. I'm wanting something that actually locks itself to different angle increments so there's no room for error.
>>
>>4488024
Panoramic tripod heads are so you can shoot panoramas while keeping the nodal point the same
If you pan direction on a normal tripod, differences in nodal point can give you some distortion
It doesn't have much functional benefit outside of panoramas / composite
>>4488232
You can get geared heads which offer precise angle adjustment as the knobs are "geared" rather than "locked/unlocked" like most heads, but they are generally quite expensive.
Any decent tripod will lock at whatever angle you want, and you can usually be fine with relying on the cameras built-in level.

I'm really lost on how much sensor size matters, because while I read tons of gear stuff here and the most detailed explanations, in reality the photos taken with a small sensor still look good to me because it's about composition, feelings, emotion, subjects and things like that.

He has let his evil side be photographed.
He knows it doesn't matter anymore.

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?

If you're doing specific work, then using the right tools for the job is what's most important. But you can do whatever when it's not work related.
I'm getting more into the frame of mind where I just pick one focal length for the day and then stick with it. I've been using zoom lenses for the last 15 years and fucking hated carrying that big ass camera and lens around.
I got an x100vi recently with the two conversion lenses and I love how tiny and light it is. I just pick between the 26, 35 and 50 for the day and stick with it. Don't carry anything else with me. It's great. Yeah you're going to miss some shots from not having the versatility of a zoom, but having a camera that's so light around my neck that I don't even notice it massively outweighs the lack of versatility for me. It's a great and powerful little camera.
I'm looking at some Nikon stuff too though that I might buy in February or something. Those 1,8 primes look great, light weight and very affordable. The 26 2,8 pancake looks very promising too. I prefer 26 over 24. It's a subtle difference, but I think 24 juuuuust has a little too much lens distortion where I find the 26 to be a cleaner look that's wide enough to justify it next to also having a 35 which is my sort of primary "scene" focal length.

I bought a six-pack to give to my family for Christmas. I'm keen. I'm debating whether I should give one to my Mum though because, on the one hand, she's going overseas next year but, on the other hand, she's utterly retarded with technology and she may not use it or find it awkward. She's also at that stage where she's basically blind to anything two feet in front of her face so I doubt she'd enjoy the experience of using it. I want to give one to my cousin instead. She's also going overseas and she's not a tech-illiterate boomer either but I would hate to make the rest of my extended family feel left out or whatever.

Ive done an experiment where I placed a 4x5 glass plate inside a 35mm only enlarger and was able to max out my enlarger height and still no grain. Only softness from optics/atmosphere/imprecise focusing was showing up.
The funny part is that wetplates typically look better when taken with a soft lens.
Using an ultra sharp modern lens can, unsuprisingly, make them look "too sharp" and kind of harsh in a way.
