Does anyone use GIMP for photo editing and manipulation? Has it become a "photographer's program" yet, or is it still clunky and freetarded?
>>4481367What is this? Somekind of edge detection algo run on a high entropy image? ig a splash of water or just the surface of turbulent water, i am probably wrong.
>>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.
What is the future of photography /pIf you were starting today what would you buy?Will stand alone cameras start needing more technological integrated features?Will cameras push harder for realism and imbedded certificates to show its a real photo or will cameras start integrating inbuilt editing features to add in skies on blown photos etc? Will standalone cameras start adding features to make short form video?I’m just worried buying today the world of photography is about to go through its most drastic change in its entire existence and this will occur over the next 10 yearsThoughts?
>>4487857Well, AI has to eliminate noise, aberrations and fuzz and then generate the perfect photo from what's left with plausible detail that is not in original to make the result look natural. I don't think current models can do that yet. But I'm no expert in AI or using AI.But I do think graphic designers are already truly screwed.The left one is part of my own filtered photo of turbulent water. I asked Grok to "find 24 shapes from this image which could be good logo of startup but different from any existing logo and draw them as lineart in 4x6 grid" (sic)
>>4488049>getting paid to generate a bunch of random shapes is a doomed career pathWell yes, but actually no.The good graphic designers are still going to completely BTFO any AI generated shit smear because AI is only good at identifying, repeating and feeding into patterns.A top-shelf graphic designer will still find work for the businesses that want to disassociate with AI. Genuinely good design is still the hallmark of a human mind (for now) and it's very obvious when genuine thought and talent went into a graphic. It's just the semi-unemployed post-grads that are fucked, and rightly so.
>>4488055I do not disagree. I've asked AI find most "important" or shapes from abstract turbulence and what it finds simply is not at all what human brain would pick up. AI can generate unlimited boring slop but AI also is already very good doing generic busywork and management. Top-self creative people will keep their jobs but there are not that many of those.
future of photo is literally AI, but this cumslurping board is too dumb to get that. we should be having AI photo threads
>>4488049are those fuji worms?
In order to achieve this kind of black does it got to be underexposed or overexposed? and how many stops?Point the light meter at the subject or at the empty space?thanks in advance
>>4487994Under expose and crush them blacks.If you mean the slight matte effect caused by this image actually being just a shitty product photo of the cover: Lift the black point in post a little.

Welcome to /m43/general!m43 sisters, we are known to be adventurers at heart. While Wormfags and Snoybois debate mtf charts and x-trans rights, we go out and explore the world around us. Capturing its beauty within m43's infinite depth of field. In this edition: I am back to m43. I've sold my huge bulky Nikon Zf after realizing that I'm way too feminine to lug around such a huge piece of Japanese technology and I got meself a brand new OM5 Mk. II.I also got a GX9 to live out my closeted homesexual street photography urges. Picrelated is my sane financial choices in one picture.

I'm thinking about getting a proper bag. Would the Think Tank Mirrorless Mover 20 v2 be alright?
>>4487940My advice? Consider a proper camera first.
>>4487940That's a nice shot, I love the colors and textures.I hate shoulder bags so I can't comment. Just make sure it's not too small for your gear and also not way too big, and keeps what you need accessible.
>>4487576Post your work faggot
>>4487948I never had a shoulder bag myself. But I know that any photo backpack I never really use because it's a hassle to put it down, open it, take gear, put it again upand those gen-z sling bag manpurses I can't stand (also I'm too fat so it would look funny anyways I guess)
Which do you think is more useful for Architecture photography - a Panoramic tripod head? Or A Tilt Shift lens?
>>4484919i forgot about that. im acurakly using mamiya 645 macro lenses on mine. https://www.captureintegration.com/cambo-actus-lens-compatibility-table/
>>4480961I shoot arch. I mostly use the tilt-shit when shooting things that are going to need to be tiled, like a huge vertical panel in an atrium yesterday I couldn't shoot any other way. If I have to stitch images together, they're getting shot on the TS. It eliminates the risk of time wasted dicking around with failed pano merges and other artifacts of trying to do it in post.Most things you can correct in-camera, you should. Just shoot it right the first time.
>>4477091What's a parallax?
>>4477071You can get ones with a ball and a fluid. These are ideal imo, they cover almost everything including video.
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
I would like a small, retro style camera for hobbyist / snap shitting type photography. Image quality is important to me, but not the end all, be all. I do not want a full frame type camera such as the ZF. I already have a D850, and actually owned a ZF for several months, before getting rid of it as the lack of grip and overall hugeness made it very unfun to walk around and shoot with. Between the OM-5 and some Fuji cam, which is the best choice?
>>4487586correct
>>4487548Apple OM-5
>>4487348>trying to force memes so at a glance it looks like the only /p/ approved FF cameras are bloated junkIntredasting. That may be the reason why dslrosaurs are pushed so hard.
>>4487356>pxlmagGarbage site, gets sizes wrong all the time.>>4487348MFT is mirrorlesscucked, and you don't really need the biggest camera to have a good camera. SL2 mogs every Sony out there with its tiny size and massive reach, by the sole virtue of not being a mirrorless scamera. Enjoy your fake Moon "photos" in an ever nearer future enabled by an EVF I guess, fed.
>>4487190>>4487205>>4487206You hold a grudge against the Minolta RD175 and use M43 as its placeholder since they have the same crop factor
Insta threadWill follow anyone>horgen_fotoHad anyone got tips on how to find less popular content?The algorithm is just feeding me terrible tiktok reels with millions of views all day long.
>>4487337they are 3d printed gems that i made (i sculpted them in VR). not sure what flavor of autism that is. Thanks.
>>4487375they re resin right? fdm would quite suck for that i swear
>>4487387>they re resin right? fdm would quite suck for that i swearYeah the gems in the screenshot are clear / translucent resin. Amazing what you can get in current year.I do 95% of my 3d prints on FDM machines but for gems i go with the resin :)
>>4484714yes that was me, did I hurt your fee fees?
>>4487932>in fact, it was not him.
I shoot black and whit 'art' photos.I print a lot. So i spend a lot of time looking at the details of each photo. especially if they're hanging on my wall.that being said, i have a conundrum which, surprisingly, isn't well covered on the internet:>would you say a leica monochrom, or a medium format (with more bits and more sensor real estate) would produce better black and white images?
>>4487908Pot. Kettle. Zone 0.
>>4487912Did you forget to attach your photo again?
>>4487913Yep, silly me. I totally forgot. Somday I'll stop being such fucking scum. Alas, today is not that day.
>>4487910I like my nikon zr with its huge ass screen
>>4487915Dope choice, I'd love to get one>>4487914Still sad
>it now cost $20 to develop film only with no prints or scansAHHHHHHHHH
>>4473605Digital fags are cuckold. You let a computer take pictures for you? Do you also let it fuck your wife?Honestly diy fixer is super easy. Legit bulk thyosulfate is super cheap.
>>4411869>tfw you fell for the film meme
based kodak saving us from filmflationfuck alaris
>>4487718Film isn't a meme. Filmfags are meme.Film is an interesting and unique approach to photography that you can't get with digital, and treating it as such can be a nice experience.Being a delusional faggot about "muh film is three billion megapickles" and failing to see the massive convenience of digital is the meme.
>>4487875This. Film is good. Liking film is good. Other people liking film sucks, those fucking hipster douches. It’s only good when I do it, everybody else is stupid. …*those* hipster douches.
Took this photo with my Lumix DMC-FX8, default settings, auto. The screen is unfortunately now broken, so I can't use it anymore since I don't think I can replace the screen. I haven't had a friend since I was 12 and everyone has forgotten me. Also the text says "You are loved."
>>4484992Søte bror, hvorfor har du ikke hatt venner siden du var 12?
whack composition
>>4486596Everyone just sort of drifted apart after middle school, I never managed to make any friends in both high school and college everyone was already too tight knit, I guess I have just forgotten how to make friends honestly.
>>4487035Pray for Friends, anon
>>4487035Then photography is perfect for you. You can look forward to spending all your time and money researching and flipping gear, and end up taking pictures of buildings, trees, backs of peoples heads, and rant nonstop to yourself about how all the degenerate commie jews have outsmarted you to the success you’re entitled to as a glorious capitalist of a superior race. Welcome.
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.
>>4487614Can you please drop you IG? Or let me make a porton mail
>>4487284yeah that's better. >>4487288why not add urdu to all that stuff?
>>4487280kino backlighting
>>4487782yeah for sure, share a proton mail, if you feel that's better.
>>4487841>why not add urdu to all that stuff?System is too corrupt, inept and broken for any major reforms. This is peak 3rd world lmao. In a way its cool tho, at least a decent chunk of people can communicate in english, makes working and learning easier.
this was the absolute peak of digital photography and its all been downhill after here. seriously look at the shots on flickr with this tag and how good they look. mirrorless is super sterile and fake looking, and older than the mkii just were shit to use and had too much noise. seriously dont sleep on these, 5d mkii and some EF L glass has u covered and then u can spend the rest of the money on travel and taking kino shots.
>>4487813>>can track a Russian Kinzhal missile at Mach 5Not sure why you keep posting this but the autofocus is literally slower than an EOS 1n. Everytime you post a photo from this camera people tell you your shits out of focus. God damn this nigger is retarded
>>4487850>I stuck a slow focusing lens in a D4 and now I'm mad, what should I do? Oh, that's right, complain on /p/ that the D4 is slow!Skill issue.
>>4487859Personally I wouldnt buy a nikon DSLR because im not a retard or a child molester
>>4487862What a pedo thing to say

Laughing gull editionLast thread >>4467818
>>4487719Yeah these shots are way better, the subject is in focus and the exposure is closer to what it should be. And regarding the background, some lenses have poor rendition of out-of-focus areas(nervous bokeh). Increasing the aperture even more might work but the dof looks quite tight already. Good job in any case. What software do you use for postprocessing?
Heron
The same heron.
>>4487746>What software do you use for postprocessingNothing at all, I haven't changed the settings on my d3400 and import the photos direct into my computer. I'll keep an eye out for bokeh since I also have an issue with pictures being blurry from hand shakes
lemme see your shots for the moon!this is mine btw captured with canon 2000d 55mm i can not remember my camera settingsi gave it some edit with lightroom this is first time with DSLR
>>4486212an old point and shoot with 12x zoom, 600mm -720mm at the tele end
The one time Phoenix II looked ok
>>4486463You have the focal length right, like 640 adjusted for the crop factor. it was a T6i with a 70's rebranded Tokina 400mm.
