I want to buy a Christmas gift for a girl and I thought of a polaroid as a great gift for her. My question to you, /p/ederasts, is whether it's worth it and not just a meme
>>4482272This guy definitely never had a partner to think about giving a Polaroid toThis is an older thread now but girls like Polaroids they’re fun little things to own, I got my gf one one time and she really likes using it it don’t matter if it’s a meme or not if they enjoy it who cares
>>4487634ok simp
>>4482274seeeeeeex
>>4482270What's a /p/ederast, Walter?
>>4482270OP I'm just going to point one thing out.This >>4482272>If you want to buy her a camera, buy her a real camera.Pay attention to the wording because it's truer than you realise. If 'YOU' want to buy her a camera.If she doesn't want a camera, then this is a gay ass idea and you're doing the classic trap of buying a gift for someone (You) would like instead of something they would like.
I went out on the streets late and took some photos tonight with this phone, here they are..
>>4490081Yeah it has a miniDV quality, but can't seem to focus, that's probably the low light
>>4490083What model specifically? I might pick one up
I think any old one will do it's GT E3300 Samsung I got this girl the other day
>>4490084Don't know if it accepts large cards for vid if you're doing that, you won't have much time, probably better finding an old miniDV camcorder
>>4490086I mean mostly for the photos, I was just impressed it could do video at all.
I don't want to buy a new flagship every two years. I just want to have a nice pocket camera and keep my midrange for a while. My old olympus pocket camera lasted for almost a decade. Preferably nothing more expensive than $700
>>4489626Thank you, knower
>>4489617rx100 is the only good one and any of the old models are fine and cheap

>>4489626Are there any under $500 that don't look like a Fisher Price toy?
Been shooting photos forever and think it's time to buy a modernism digital camera. Currently own an original Sony 7 that's starting to show it's age. Looking for a small-ish, used, interchangeable lens camera to 'upgrade' to. I'll be using it as a general EDC walk around but also to shoot professional architecture photos. Must haves:>BSI sensor as a main reason for me to shoot digital is for low light performance >tilty screen that can flip down (NOT out to the side)>SS dial>Cost <$1500calThings I don't care about>AF performance>Video>Menus
>>4489936Nice downgrade
>>4489937From what? My 14 year old Sony a7 lol?
>>4489876Very good post fellow nikonian. One nicoin has been deposited to your nikonwallet, my sir. -rajesh, nikon pro services call center 3
>>4489943hey i took a similarly bad photo!
>>4490054Ya but the trees in the background are neither here nor there and ruin your shot
5.4 is out, what do we think bros?
>>4489994if your program needs me to configure the ideal demosaicing pipeline for a 5 year old camera im going with the one made by programmers whose time is worth money insteadcommie software always fails somewhere between the so called ethos/philosophy, the code of conduct, and the developers ego combined with the developers low functioning aspergers>its the mit hacker way you capitalist consumer! go fork it urself! some of us actually like computers!
>>4489997except it works with my 16 year old camera you're so committed to your anti foss posting I'm starting to believe adobe pays you
>>4489994Ah yes quintessential photography skills:>framing>composition>configuring foss shit
>>4489978>actually relying on shitty apple displays
>>4489997Tbh it would be incredibly based if they intentionally made it incompatible with sony cameras.>>4490011No he does it for free because he got NTRd by a foss developer or so
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?
If this were /ic/, I'd say body proportions and perspective are all wrong.The combination of the hips being so much wider than the waist (perspective distortion?) and the lighting dropping off too quickly between cheeks and back (local adjustments?) suggests that the lower body is completely detached from the upper body.The lighting also makes everything look fake, but I can't explain that.

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.

>>4488728What's going on here? Some very shitty implementation of ICE?Anyway I think it's probably film, just very weirdly scanned/postprocessed. Or digital that someone spent too much of their time on trying to make it half-convincingly look like film for a gotcha effect.
>>4488728clearly no /mu/tants in this thread, its the cover for the album Wildflower by the Avalanches (not nearly as good as Since I Left You btw). wiki says the cover photo was taken by gen kay https://genkay.com/ and their website offers few clues other than that they pretty clearly work with both digital and film. I'd reckon on it being film based on the grain, as well as the aesthetic of the artist they were doing the work for.

>>4490077probably closer to $5000 with $1000-$1500 lost forever to hasty resale/careless damage. a divorce worthy display of financial, philosophical, and photographic stupidity.
>>4490078>>4490077But why is it such a shitty picture? OP really couldn't have gotten all 3 cameras in focus with a camera that is designed to have a large dof?

I hope your wife doesn't find this thread, lol.
I am going to buy one as soon as they hit the market in early Novemeber. I hope I get the 1987 edition. It's fire. Which one are you hoping to score?You are going to be getting one right /p/?You aren't gonna be a contrarian try hard no Charmera /p/haggot are you /p/? ISHYDDT
>>4489298To me looks like cheap dashcam where bringing out detail like license plates is important and aesthetic is not. >>4489300I already tried different cables. Now checked it's same with win10 laptop. (Charges fine via usb and goes to PC mode if its PC and does not if charger but Win 10/11 does not recognize it.I'll msg the seller before attempting to find and fix a bad solder joint. Smds got too tiny for me more than a decade ago.)(A snap with different levels of darkness.)
>>4489271VHS aesthetics
>>4489351>>4486865At night shots the thumb camera does pull far ahead compared to the Charmera. Charmera looks like there was butter smeared over the lens.
>>4489412>VHSIt looks nothing like it.
I am >>4487763. Bought a G6 for $20 aud. Came the other day and had a bit of time to get an inital impression.>>4487992>The listing on Aliexpress claims it has autofocus.I have seen nothing to indicate there is any focusing happening at all. It is absolutely fixed-focus with a MFD of about 25cm>>4489271The USB connection on mine works fine. Can even use it as a webcam while attached to a PC with minimal fuss.>>4489300I see nothing of the sort. There's a menu item in the camera to enable or disable the date stamp though.>>4489412No. It looks like a dashcam from 2009. Far too oversharpened to be mistaken for VHS.>>4489417Funny because it already looks like liquid ass at night so if the Chamera is worse I'd say dont even bother outside of good light.Anyway,It's a 3MP 16:9 ratio, 1080p video dashcam sensor with no manual controls, an e-shutter, a bunch of mostly gay and a couple useful filters, with strong sharpening and the only way to adjust exposure is burried in the menu via an EV setting (which is still nice to have but fuck me I wish it were a button).Comment too long.

>>4489871It was easier for me to get EU citizenship than to save of for medical treatment in the US. Many EU countries have some law like "if your grand grand grand parent was a countryman, you're too".Once you get EU citizenship you just move to Germany, go on gibs and get 1st world medical care for free. Then you can always return to the US.This is less expensive and faster than getting treatment in the US.
OP is a colossal faggot and probably a jeet. Maybe try reddit instead
>it now cost $20 to develop film only with no prints or scansAHHHHHHHHH
>>4411869its really not that hard to develop it yourself
Why the fuck is it more expensive to develop black and white film as opposed to color film? That's fucking insane.
>>4489845C41 is a standardized process that is uniform regardless of film speed (pushing/pulling aside), while b&w can be done different ways to achieve different outcomes and also requires different timing for different film speeds (unless your lab is doing rodinal stand dev I guess). More complexity = more expensive, while every lab has a machine that basically does c41 for them.
>>4489845B&W dev is done by hand, and C41 film is done by machine automation.I've seen a moderate rise of C41 B&W film being sold locally this past year or so. Local shop has sold a lot more XP2 Super than even HP5 according to the owner. The film is like an extra two bucks per roll but costs 2/3rd the dev cost at the same store so it's actually more economical.Besides, think of how much time it takes you to dev a single roll at home. Even if you've done it a hundred times and have all the chems ready to go, it still takes you a good 20-30 minutes to go through everything all the way to drying. I'm not surprised shops are charging $20 USD a roll to have an intern spend a solid half an hour on a single job.
>>4489852also that's the reason you never give your BW film to a lab because they don't know what look you want and they just use $something. if you shoot BW film you have to develop yourself to keep full control of the process. otherwise you could just get a digicam and shoot the monochrome JPG profile. same amount of control - just less cost.
