Spent two hours at the local book market today. Reached the place a little while before sunset, pushed through my anxiety and tried my hand at taking some photographs.Feel free to post any pictures you /p/ros took at any book fair or local market in your area.
>>4486697Based Pakastani. Good for you man. Don't let /p eople discourage you. Guaranteed if you keep doing it, you'll get better and better over time and find your own style.
Other than bizarre science fiction, and scientific study books, idk what else I would go there too find Everything educational related has videos online What books are you guys lookin for?
>>4490410Fiction and picture books I suppose
>>4487280these are good, what are you shooting with?
photos of my cat Rupert that i took on my phone which at least trace amounts of thoughtful composition, as per the board rules I like this shot because it really focuses on his face, which is cute
>>4476319You caught a nice moment here. I think it would be better if you brought up the crop to a little bit below where his feet would be, behind the blanket, and maybe bring it in just a tiny bit on the right so there's a little more focus on the empty space he is looking towards.
Miss you, Avena.
The only good thread on this cursed site. I really wish I could have a cat.
LEICA Reporter Jacket MONOCHROM editionIn this thread, we're going to talk about photographic fashion which is what we wear when we're photographing or filming and doing related stuffs(developing, scanning, reviewing, printing, sucking up the client's shit, etc)What do you wear when you photograph? What is your must have /p/hasion item? Do you have any item you're looking for?
>>4483190>It's actually a thing ajhihahahahhaso glad I'm a hasselchud and not a leicafag I couldn't cope with the second hand embarrassment
>>4483949so true
>>4483190>not taking the shopliftpill
>>4483187>what do you wear moleskin like a pretentious fart sniffing parisian, with pockets big enough for telephoto lenses
5.4 is out, what do we think bros?
>>4490672>>4490664Behold the consequences of freetard ideology (tanks fur de contribs / we need moar choice!). Heccin liberty! No wonder they’re all trannies. Why limit yourself to one gender either?There is only one right answer. You do not need all these conflicting options for demosaicing and color mapping. Everything else the user needs is in the standard sliders everyone uses, fucking rgbl curves tool and an eyedropper+set h/l range+hsl slider tool
>>4490688>we will consider deprecating the broken shit in 2 more versionsIts because as shown by the incompetent asshats in the GNOME team, they lack the intelligence and foresight to make any good decisions so they default to piling on conflicting shit. Every FOSS project is like this because they dont allow tyrants like Steve Jobs, per their self pwning CoCs
>>4490688>>4490689Would you fuck off already.
>>4490691Try ansel. Its like darktable but not retarded
>>4490689most FREETARD projects are what I call feminized software. men build hierarchies to achieve a goal. every man has a part he's responsible for (and can be blamed if it sucks).most FREETURD projects dont have hierarchies. it's the feminine modus operandi: no one is responsible for anything, no one can be blamed for anything, no one cares about anything - everyone can dumb their shit and they be better praised by the others or the feelings get hurt (which would be a catastrophe)thus you end up with the total trash heap that is most "creative" freeturd software. darktable, audacity, gimp, etc ...the only freetard projects that get any successful either have a strong hierarchy, corporate funding or both
Post em
>>4490236Luv bees, me
>>4490307Shit, wrong pic
Haven't posted in a couple of months but got a few rolls developed recently and I'm slowly going through scanning them.Exif: Leica M3 + Nokton 50mm f.1.5 + Vision3 250D (for the first seven ones), then Aerocolor IV for the remaining four.
>>4490426has M3 cloth shutter or titanium blades?
>>4490491Cloth, which is why you gotta be careful pointing the lens towards the sun.I had to replace mine originally when I had a CLA done.
>>4490553yeah my old russian range finder has cloth shutter ... is more like cheese cloth shutter now. if I buy a new old rangefinder it will be with metal blade shutter.
>>4490426second version sure looks a lot smallerthanks anon
>>4490721Yeah, it's actually even smaller than the Leica Summilux (#1 is Nokton II, #3 is Summilux).It's just a really lovely lens that does 99% of the Summilux for a 1/6 of the price.
dude talks 20 minutes about colors, and he uses pictures of a guy with a very weird color, like how the fuck do are we supposed to know what color this guy is supposed to be?is he half black half white? is he indian? is he pakistanese ?what the fuck this seems like the most ellaborate troll video ever madehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z4PLMnUf0Gc
>>4490660I am seriously very confused, what color is that guy supposed to be? He's not white, he's not chocolate, is he supposed to look curry?
>>4490657instant coffee with milk complexion
>>4490657Did you actually watch the video?He explains that he applied the same preset to all and then tried to tweak them afterPhotos aren't about whatever reflects the most "accurate" colorsIt doesn't matter what color he is, the only thing that matters is which color you like best
>>4490657Nice bait, your screen cap is from the SOOC unedited comparison part
What makes pic related so uncanny and unpleasant to look at? Is it the lack of shadows? Why would a photographer go for such effect?
>>4489016I had those printed at max resolution on D size paper and framed on my walls back in my twenties. Everyone thought it was funny to see my nice apt decorated in high res asshole art, until my friends wife popped over to get him, looked around, stormed out and never spoke to me again lol
>>4490219There's a significant percentage of women whose entire self-worth has been based on the market value of their vagina. Nothing is a stonger denial of their self worth than someone who places their poop hole as more important than their life giving slimy hole. Most humans are simple animals.
The lighting setup has been designed to provide maximum coverage from all angles.The photographer likely wanted to work fast and cheap, so he's not shooting this like an artistic shoot. He's trying to get the maximum number of ok shots in as short a time as possible. What you end up with is the very flat 80s Style porn mag look that we see here.
>>4490043It neither provokes lust nor is an irrelevant question in my view. Color accuracy matters
started looking at photos i shot back in 2008-2010ish and decided to do a dump.
>>4490323In some ways yea
I just got an old digicam and the previous owners didn't delete all the photos. I took a peek and some of the pics are actually kino.
Post nudes from it.
I once got a Fuji X-T1 with videos of an old guy jorking it on the card.
>>4490341He did it on purpose.
Using recuva on about 100 old memory cards I have probably only gotten a couple that had somewhat decent photos on them. It is amazing just how terrible the average snapshitter is and how they all take the same type of shitty photos. One card had a ton of folders on it spanning over several years where they had taken photos of everything from baptisms to funerals.. all family events. One card had several full frontal nudity photos of an elderly man taken in the mirror on vacation. It feels somewhat wrong to peek into the lives of others though.
>>4489096Postem!
New color film!!!lucky 200 has finally dropped.Anybody shot it yet? waiting for my order to arrive.
to think lomography sold literal garbage rolls (some even marked with letters and codes on top of the image) for $20, and still do
Damn I expected chinaslop to cost less than Kodak Gold
>>4488601>>4488638>>4488641its cheaper if you are from a third hole shithole, a roll of Gold cost 15 usd for me. And Lucky its just 9 USD so yeah.
>>4488583I've shot with the BW 400. I just finished my roll of Lucky 200, but I haven't developed it yet.
>>4488583how long does Reflx Lab take to ship to the US?
Well nobody else is gonna so here we go, here's a RAW/EDIT thread. I've provided some of mine, a few of which I've edited in the past but also a few I've never touched.

last oneall done in darktableas to what I did, nothing fancy:1. denoise, lens correction, sharpening, checking white balance2. setting appropriate exposure3. working on tones in contrast equalizer, where needed3. setting dynamic range in AgX4. cropping5. further work on contrast in color balance RGB, some very slight color grading sometimes6. softening or adding micro contraststill have a lot to learn about colors and composition so any criticism is very welcome

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.

>>4490041Finally, someone answers my actual question instead of sperging out over my opinion. Thank you, anon.
Does anyone use GIMP for photo editing and manipulation? Has it become a "photographer's program" yet, or is it still clunky and freetarded?
>>4487887Nta. Looks like one of the inbuilt G'MIC effects you can apply in GIMP (and other GNOOO software). They're mostly memes but you can get some neat effects.
At this point Lightroom/PS combo is the only thing stopping me from ditching Windows. I'd love to see an actually good alternative that does everything those two apps do, but there isn't one.
I use Darktable for editing jpg:s also.
>>4488079It's a good tool overall, but it can't do compositing and layering well or at all. For my product photography, I need both.
>>4485372after learning how to use dt, I don't even like LR and C1 anymoreI could use LR for free because of my work but I don't want all that bloat and bs associated with it
Last days of 2025 editionAll video related questions and discussion is intended for this thread. Here we discuss techniques, gear and anything else related to capturing video footage. Please don't pretend to be an expert if you don't know what you're talking about. Kindly leave your ego at the door.Posting short films/scripts or other work you've done is encouraged.We tend to use and recommend DSLRs/mirrorless cameras because they provide phenomenal picture quality for their price, have large sensors (ie the same size used in high-end cinema cameras and higher) and have interchangeable lenses.In contrast, consumer camcorders often have much smaller sensors and a fixed lens.>STICKY - https://text.is/QZ1J>Helpful guide, additional books and more in-depth FAQs - https://web.archive.org/web/20200926115310/https://pastebin.com/kG0gRmTZ>NO ONE CARES WHAT AN EXPERT YOU THINK YOU ARE.

>>4490396Did a handful of music videos when I was younger, got burnt out on it very fast. Nobody ever wanted to use the concepts I would write, ended up always doing straightforward garbage mixed with tons of bandmember shots.
>>4490258I have my grandpas old full size VHS camera, I have not really looked at it much, but that could be a fun project if I can hook it up to my atomos. Even if I don't use it as much as I should, I still enjoy it, the time will come when It gets used for a project. The zoom lens should be kino if it makes it here.
>>4490427Hell yeah. What's your favourite one you made?
>>4490453lots of old camcorders from the 80s and early 90s are starting to leak capacitors. if I were you I wouldn't wait. Check the condition, whether it powers on, etc. if the recording mechanism doesn't work you can still record externally via composite or s-video
>>4490497I just make them for friends. I don’t post them online. But my favorite effect is that insane swirly bokeh that modern remakes of those old petzval lenses have. Throw in an aperture plate that looks like a quarter note, and you got some serious bokeh magic on your video. Swirly bokeh that looks like quarter notes around a band. Chef’s kiss. If you want to troll some politards throw in an aperture plate that looks like a manji and go film a political rally or a town hall.
