the best camera is the one you already have

>>4461808It depends on the camera. If it's an IP camera it might get a bit tricky, but CAT-5 to RCA adapters exist, so might be worth giving it a shot.
>>4462553>worth giving it a shoti see what you did there.
Some of these CCTV lenses are legit. I used one on an old mft Olympus years ago and rebought it for my fuji.
Shameless edition.Last thread: >>4457780
>>4466138Photography is not based on merit, however.
>>4466133They just post records themselves on YouTube or Bandcamp
>>4466140Music is also not merit based. All of pop stars are industry plants. That doesn't mean shit. Art music still exists. Then there are clever pop stars like Charli XCX who find ways to penetrate into mainstream. If you do good work and you know your audience then you will gather attention. An artist has to be sharp minded. Knowing how to market yourself is a key skill of being an artist. This lone wolf starving hermit artist is literal fiction. Nobody is coming to publish you. At. first you gotta make moves, network and market yourself.>>4466141>bandcampThere is no such site for photobooks. Distribution of music is totally different from photography. Still new hotshot bands like Black Midi were signed with labels.
>>4466141That's like having an Instagram, not printing a photobook
>>4466144On bandcamp at least you can present your music in a dignified manner where you get your own page for an album and you can stylize the presentation of page and present everything in a structured manner.
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
Canon 90D with Tamron 150-600

I took some pictures of cows today.Camera: R5 mark 2Lens: RF 35mm 1.8 STMHave a glass of milk on me. enjoy.Critique is always welcomed

>>4465627>But for gods sake, get rid of that lens asap. Soulless macro-plastic disaster.It is OK for what it is. The focus motor is the main reason I ditched mine.
>>4466049
>don't switch to a new mount in the digital transition so all your customers can still use their old film lenses>pride yourself for upholding true photographic tradition and having the finest lenses with the most "character">release the first full frame camera that can actually make full use of all those "sweet" 35mm pentax lenses in 2016, literally 10 years after the competition>in the meantime only make shitty APS-C kit zooms>Release your only monochrome camera for the true affecionados>It's APS-CWhy is this company such a joke?
>>4466047The still visible "IR" beam? Might as well use a flashlight if you're one of all 5 people who still use that.
>>4465990>>4465978im a dumbass and forgot to mention that its the old ass 35-105mm f3.5 from the 80s, its supposedly good enough quality that its nicknamed stack of primes
>>4454532Its sensor is the same size as a 127 film frame, but calling it the 44D doesn't sound as cool
redpill me on the Q series and how much of a dumbass I'd be for buying one, these things look neat
>>4466100They're basically toy cameras but they have plenty of reach when you put a full frame telephoto lens on them. Thing is, you can't really trust what you see because there's no OVF. Still, the reach is unmatched.

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.

>>4465963Only thing stopping it is if Adobe changes course, which I don't think it will. Surprised Final Cut or Media Composer doesn't have it, although with Avid, you need to pay for updates.
>>4466033Macs game plan is different. They don’t want you to be tied to a subscription. They want you to be tied to needing a Mac to run their software.

Film photos from the last few months + some thoughts.
>>4465923Not a great photo, but mainly taken for documentary purposes.This was in the royal academy for the visual arts, which was having a show for students finishing their studies.This wall was in the process of being covered in photos of the wall. On the right is a Hasselblad, the person behind this was taking shots of the wall, 12 per roll, then developing and printing the roll and placing it on the wall. Was interesting to watch.
>>4465925Another photo from the academy.Most of the photos shown were not super great, but what they did better than what I see online most of the time was consistency of subject and long term projects.
>>4460393Why the fuck is that woman playing an electric bass upright with a bow?
>>4465961Why wouldn't she if she can?
>>4465961It's fretless
>it now cost $20 to develop film only with no prints or scansAHHHHHHHHH
Should I get a scanner? Is it a quality = price thing or can I get by with mid-low range gear?
scanner is good
>>4411869>he shoots in colour>he doesn't shoot exclusively in B&Wlol.>he doesn't have his own darkroom in his house>with his own fix/stop/developer baths, enlarger, drying racks, sink, and trimming stationlmao even. if you shoot film in 2025 and send it off to someone to process you get what you deserve.
>>4411869Jesus Christ
Cinestill has a $30 kit to develop 24 color rolls. That's barely more than $1 each.
Have you ever gotten a strong emotional response after viewing a specific phot, like you would in a movie ? Or maybe going to an exhibition or reading a book ? Or is photography just "pretty cool" at best ?Pic related is the first response I got when searching " best art photography ever" online. While it's really good and impressive, I can't really say it makes me feel anything in my gut.Post pics that make you feel something, inspiring photographers/books etc.
>>4464797I agree with this, not all photography is art.Some is.an artform would involve skill, talent, craft, a processthe art of photography and the results themselves - photos, well there is a distinction thereare all photos art? are all drawings art?art may in a sense be a processor is it the final result?I have a feeling that we all knoe inherently what art is. And we can see when something is art or isn'tPhotos can be artand photography is definitely an art form
>>4462918Bruce Gilden. If you like him you should check out Stanley Greene.
>>4465626thanks for these>>4465654thanks I'll check it out
>>4465169Art is just a word that was hijacked by commercial interests. It's a commodity which those interests built a walled garden around in order to control the product flow and keep spotty faced upstarts out. Now it seems that spotty faced upstarts defend the garden, into which they are not allowed, with all the 4chan rage they can muster.Beauty doesn't need to be qualified with loaded words, it just is.
>>4465931words can have multiple meanings depending on who uses them and in what context
>be me>start getting into film>bought a fx3 and start shooting in the park to get the hang of everything, namely exposure. >at the park today, two mexican guys park next to me and make conversation (I'm in the south, so its normal to make random convo, and I'm Mexican too)>get a little nervous since it's hard to tell if cartel types or construction worker types>conversation goes on and I get the feeling they are cool>eventually they start suggesting me shoot a a video with the new car one of the guys bought>i think to myself this could be pretty cool so I go with it and start shooting (my literal first shoot with talent if you will).>as I'm shooting this, during some downtime some dumb bitch comes out of nowhere to ask if I can take pictures of her on her iPhone (i literally never take pictures on my iphone and still learning)>take pictures, dumb bitch gets mad and tells me I need to auto focus on her face and makes a snide remark about how I'm the professional>all of this is happening while I'm just trying to shoot some filmon one hand this is cool and actually fun but on the other hand it can be a lot of pressure. its good practice in my eyes to be able to do a quick exercise around filiming other people so I went with it. you have to literally think on the spot.anyways just wanted to share cause it was kinda all over the place. the whole time i was with those mexican guys i was kinda nervous they were trying to steal my camera but they turned out to be chill.

Do any of yall know any other film cameras than the gen 3 Polaroid i have and possibly some tips for taking better pictures than these.
>>4465296You can get a back adapter that lets you use polaroid/instax on certain view cameras.
>>4465296>do film cameras other than polaroid exist? >>4462404
>>4465296Even though polaroids are the biggest instant format available, they are still tiny. Only shoot subjects that fill almost the entire frame and where detail is not fundamental (e.g. a single, well framed object or a portrait)Anyway, you have a gen 3 polaroid which even has manual controls through the app and you already ask for another camera even though your photos suck ass compositionally. You are a loser worthless gearfag
>>4465296Sx-70. Modded. Always.
>>4465315this is how i read the question as well and if that's really what OP meant, i fear for the children, i really do. Perhaps if we are charitable maybe he meant instant film cameras? OP, what did you mean friend?
How was that softness of 1980s centerfolds shot on Ektachrome achieved? Was it lens itself or was dude using some filters on his large format camera?
>>4464374Lmao faggot
>>4464534You may laugh now but mouth your daddy kissed you goodbye with had my cock in them.
So, soft lens after all.
>>4465908Yes. The fringing on the second pic is a dead giveaway.
Any love for the Game Boy Camera and printer here?Sure nowadays even the chinkest of cameras and printers may be better with printing via phone bigger and clearer photos but there's a certain charm and fun in doing with with a Game Boy of all things.
>>4463067Doesn't really look like he was the one taking the picture. It's also pretty hard to tell if he's 12 or 50 in that pic.
>>4463072No, but it could still have been his camera, since the camera roll ends there.Could have been a friend or sibling taking it.
Mine had photos from the previous owner, seems like a cool guy. I hope he's doing fine.
Game Boy Color :tm:
