why should i use this and not lightroom
>>4489704This is me. Like for 8+ years now. I'm getting there. I want to quit Adobe but I can't quite get the look I want. But again I'm getting close. I have a preset that's nice, but I just can't get it to work with flash photos. AI denoise is a must for me also as a nightlife photographer. Some people are working on AI denoise for dt but I can't try it with my 5700XT. Or I have to try to reprogram it myself so it works with the pytorch and ROCm version that my card can use. But f dat
>>4490252Try the new version with the agx module. This was always one of the reasons I have returned back to LR. The greyish shit. I know exactly what you mean. But with agx you can get there
>>4493699Yeah everyone telling me "sigmoid sigmoid" until I used agx and all my troubles were gone
>>4493698i own capture one and never cared. it was like $200. AI denoise? tacky and tasteless, just grain vs sharpened inpainted mush. its for birds and weddings yknow. fucking 5dII at ISO 12800 still looks better than 35mm film but maybe LR renders noise worse. ive heard its sharper and more obnoxious instead of soft and creamy like film.
>>4493648shit wrong image
shes just like me bros

Bird up
My Sony 18-135mm doesn't take good bird pictures unless it's literally tied to its handler and I want a lens with longer reach.Would I regret switching my Sony 18-135mm for the Tamron 18-300mm (59,501 yen new before tax refund, which seems stupid good) due to the weight + bulk + slightly decreased picture quality?Or would I regret having to carry an extra lens by getting the Sony 70-350mm (93,400 yen new, 86,600 yen used before tax refund)?
>>4493449Forgot pic.

Can we agree that almost any modern digital camera takes "good" photos (with the obvious exception of Micro 4/3)?
>>4493686I've gotten an estimated 600MP of resolution from a flatbed scan of an 8x10 negative. Ive seen a wetplate tested to get over 1000MP. Does this make a difference on an 8x10 contact print or wetplate? Absolutely and it is called tonality.
>>4493686It was actually a 4x5 plate that got the gigapickle. Lolhttps://billrolph.com/wet-plate-resolution-1
>>4493645SEXY.But for what purpose would you do this? You need so much light for LF for any sort of DoF. Unless of course... there's a complementary off-camera handheld sodium-bulb flash which is based beyond all measure.>>4493691>I've gotten an estimated 600MP of resolution from a flatbed scan of an 8x10 negativeSurely this is just complete overkill right? Analogue processes might benefit if you're enlarging prints to... ungoldly sizes, but scanning only benefits up to maybe 8k and slightly beyond unless you're literally just peeping individual pixels.Maybe for insane resolution landscapes?
>>4493688Complaining about choosing to not delete a photo on /p/.
>>4493694The sinar handy only supports up to a 135mm lens(I think) with a 65mm being the most common. You can totally do zone focus with 65mm. There's a very expensive 47mm lens you can get that covers 4x5 as well. Lots of silly/fun use cases and I think it's sort of wasteful not going for gold with large format, but the camera is a fun one to use and very compact for large format. It has a ground glass in the back, so you could take it hiking to save tons of weight and space. Idk what their intended purpose was when they were made. Maybe architecture or something..>>4493694People will call me schizo, but if you compare a grain free 8x10 print made with enlarged 35mm film and an 8x10 contact print you will see an obvious image quality difference in the two prints. There are also 8x10 enlargers that you could make gigantic grain free prints with, but it is a very difficult and expensive process.If you're talking about the scan being so huge then yeah it's just overkill, but it can be useful if you're autistic about your technique and want to learn what you did right/wrong.

What's the secret to digital b&w photography?
>>4491118Black and white is for when the colors of what you're photographing are ugly.
>just dodge and burn, brobrutal
>>4492582The colors of things directly influence how good a b&w photo come out thoughBaby turd green just gets converted into a lighter shade of grey (you are using your yellow filter right anon?)
>>4491166Thing is, human eyes can adjust lacking dark areas with imagination but can't do it on highlights well...
>>4491118colors still matter and how you set up contrast is usually what makes it look good imho
contributemostly wanted to experiment with the 'natural' setting on the K10DI think I used -2 saturation, 0 contrast, +1 sharpening but I adjusted it here and thereI also played with color correction in the WB but it wasn't too greatalso, /digishit/ general bread
fujifilm finepix S5200got at thrift store for 10 dollars
>>4477542 That camera requires lots of exposure compensation. It has a tendency of underexposing without a constant +0.5...+1.5 EV compensation. I had one.
>literally no digital camera not even the state of the art 2025 cameras can surpass LF kodachromeHow? isnt technology supposed to get better with time?
>>4487920the old kodachrome was basically iso 10, so most of these large format shots have like kilowatts of lights blasting the subjects. anyway i do agree, nothing looks quite like it, even the 60s/70s 35mm koadchrome photos just have something special about them - no "preset" will ever capture that, and definitely no fuji recipe lol...

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
>>4490054Ya but the trees in the background are neither here nor there and ruin your shot
Well, wound up buying a Nikon refurbished Z5 still in box with 3 year warranty for $600. Seems like a crazy value and ticks almost all the boxes for me. Thanks for following my blog
>>4490059Homie it's literally an anagram of the Bliss wallpaper. The trees add to it.
>>4493631The trees look sloppy to me, homie
>>4490054>>4489943You're both blisslets.
Well I ordered a used Fujifilm GFX 100s for 3k and the Gf 50mm f3.5 for a little over 600$. I've been doing a series of suburban/urban landscapes late at night and was previously shooting with a Nikon z7ii and the 35mm f1.4 and Voigtlander Nokton 40mm. I think the 50mm should be a pretty good light weight option but I was also looking at adapting some pentax 645 and Mamiya glass. I've also heard the Mitakon 65mm f1.4 is pretty good. Any suggestions or tips for someone who hasn't ever shot digital medium format?
>>4492368If you are looking for sharp lenses, GF ones are the way to go. For me it was too clinical and I've ended up using adopted glass on GFX. I believe for landscapes it will be good. As for static subjects and tripod operations - adopting glass could be an option. GFX raw's are super flexible so without problem you can use "film profiles" to match style of your previous work using filmstock.
>>4492368Old school photographer here Contax, Hasselblad now Canon 6D Mark III keep wanting to go down that rabbit hole you're looking looking at but I keep wondering if it's worth my time anymore.
>>4493597 contFor 35mm, got a 15mm, 28mm f2.0 ,35 f2.8 PC, 50mm 1.4, 85mm f1.2mm and 28-85mm zeiss in CY Mount, used to own a 200mm f3.5 Zeiss and 180mmf3.4 Angenuiex. The Zeiss zoom and their 200 mm are okay but kind of underwhelming for the price, the 180mm f3.4 I regret selling.For Canon, I have the 24-105 ii, the 24-70 2.8 ii, 70-200 f2.8 ii, 200mm f1.8 ii, 1.4X iii, 2X ii, and the 300mmf2.0 and 600mm f4.0 pair of Nikkors with adapters. The 200 mm Canon is amazingly sharp and nice to use, just heavy as hell. Nearly 4 kg, it must be solid metal and glass inside and it has almost useless tripod foot so I bought one from really right stuff that you can use as a palm holder. The two Nikkors are very heavy especially the 600. The 300 I can just barely use on a monopod or propped up on a stump. It has an interchangeable PL mount for Motion Pictures and I have loaned it out for that. It produces beautiful dramatic silhouettes, it was used in the final long shot at the end of Indiana Jones and the Last crusade. I have an amazing photograph of a bighorn sheep in Northern British Columbia I got with it it was on a magazine cover.I find I've been doing a lot of snap shitting with my Canon 6D Mark II, as I tend to use the zooms and it makes me lazy and not really want to find a great vantage point rather than just framing the subject with the zoom.For Hasselblad, I have a 500 C/M, a 903 SWC, 50mm f4 FLE, 60mmf3.5, 80mm f2.8 chrome Tstar, 100mm 3.5, 120mm f4 Macro, 250mm f5.6 chrome, 250mm f5.6 SA, and a 1000mm f5.6 Zeiss with its Rollei mount I keep thinking I wanted gfx but I'm still disappointed with Contax and Hasselblad shitting the bed on their first attempts at the digital Market. Both of them needed you to buy their new lens mounts for old lens designs. Absolute bullshit. 21MM 2.8 zeiss in Canon mount is my only DSLR lens fixed focal length I ownAs much as I like fuji, I find they're ergonomics on there cameras a bit puzzling.
>>4493212One of my favorite lenses to use is my 250 mm Sonnar from my Hasselblad. Great at portraits and wildlife, have an amazing photograph of a pileated woodpecker from about 10 ft away. Abysmally long close Focus though. The 250mm SA is a nice lens when you need resolution but otherwise just doesn't work as nicely. The 100mm is very sharp compared to the 80 mm and a slightly longer focal length flattens perspective nicely
>>4493635One of my earliest 50mm Hasselblad photos. If it looks familiar it might be because Chris Carter used this building as a set piece for one of the early X-Files episodes. You saw my work at a gallery and got my information on where it photographed all the industrial buildings including the one with the pivotal Mothership scene at the Britannia Beach mine
If I ask some college students to help me model for my photography do I have to pay them or is giving them the pictures for the instagram enough? What is your guys experience in this?
I almost fucked myself because of this. I asked for a girl's nude for cash. I'm doing an engineering degree brazil and I had to transfer to another federal instulitution. Didn't help that someone saw my collection of david hamilton books. I had to go to lawyers even, so yeah, be careful. I guess everything worked out in the end.But the girl was somewhat afraid and the principal was a mother with a daughter, so yeah... you can imagine that.I was not afraid of going legal however.

Love the colours in the 250D shots. They don't have a green tint that I see other people get from it. I hate green tints.
So is everyone using Lightroom or what? I already have Affinity 2 and would like something with a permanent license for library as well.
