>spends 10k+ on camera gear the past 2 years
Can you post some photos from the high end gear?
What gear did you end up buying over time?
What did you like about what you bought, and what didn't you like?
How did you end up liking the Pentax combo the best?
Just curious on the mindset, and your findings.
>>4329950
Any services you recommend that aren't bottom line? Trying to decide if I want to snag a epson ET-8550 to do printing at home at 12x19 and 8x10/11 or if I want to go through a dedicated service personally
>>4330062
Post 'em, I've gotten some half decent photos with my s23 ultra and was a great tool to start leaning the histogram before I got my standalone.

>>4328176
Congrats anon.
>be me
>similar 10k+ situation but 5 years ago
I sold everything after the pandemic and only kept my Fuji X-T3 + Contax Zeiss 50 1.4 + cheap adapter.
People praise my jpeg sooc portraits and I enjoy photograpy.

>>4330482

Film is too time consuming. I use vintage glass, mist filter and jpg sooc (natural look and b/w mostly).

Fucked scan, they stuck it on auto mode and didnt check if anything actually lined up.
Also the fact the bar is the same sickly orange as the rest of the image means auto mode boosted the shadows probably due to underexposure.

a rescan or a home scan would make these pics look so much better.

The best and the cheapest, literally $4.50 per roll. Massive grain though, so it's not for everyone.

Here is my latest 8x10 wetplate. I may still attempt a couple more to improve the lighting. It is tricky with only one strobe.

In person the stick has more detail, but it is quite dark, and the highlights are blown out in some of the white feathers. I was struggling with weird artifacts that were ruining my plates prior to this and a higher exposure + shorter dev time seemed to remedy them, which is partly why the lighting has been so challenging.

What's the fundamental difference between wetplate vs diy emulsion?

>>4330681
Depends what sort of diy emulsion you're talking about.

With wetplate the colloidion has the iodide and bromide, and the silver nitrate bath sensitizes the plate. It must remain wet through exposure and development or the plate will fail.

A gelatine based dry plate emulsion has all the stuff mixed together.

from what you've showed here, it's a matter of color balance/grading and highlight bloom. the first depends on editing, not camera. the second you can get on any camera that accepts a filter, with a particle halation filter such as glimmer glass, formatt firecrest bloom, k&f shimmer, etc. or you can also add highlight bloom in post.
camera choice should be informed by technical demands of the shot and ergonomic/workflow preferences

Would having a Leica be like buying 3oz of gold or are you better off just buying gold/crypto? I know if I had one of these it'd be more of an investment cus I would be deathly afraid to take it outside.

>>4330694
Nah not actually a rere, but that's valuable feedback and I appreciate that cause I learned something.
95% of this board is just saying "it's shit" or "cause you're using x camera/lens/whatever", for example when I was asking about the blur on the birds, I was being genuine, I was only paying attention to the eye focus and making sure they were good until either you or the other anon pointed out the difference in sharpness on the head vs chest feathers. That's something I need to pay attention to and a good tell about shutterspeed being either too low for that subject or me messing up with my handholding technique.
When I take people shooting for the first time(pew pews not cameras) or doing precision shooting, I don't just say they're shit when shooting, I give advice and demonstrate it based on what I see.
It's a big issue with /k/ and this board in general when the majority of people just giving blanket shit statements without demonstrating the why.

Sincerely, have a good one mang.

Idk, less of a landfill than aliexpress camera with phone sensor and lens.

Problem is that Kodak (Taiwanese OEM digishit) is bit too shit. I don't think 140 mm equivalent digishits make that much sense. If sensor is small 1/2.3" piece of shit (possibly CCD lol), it would make more sense to couple it with 28-450mm equivalent lens or smth like that, because otherwise there is no real benefit over a phone.

Your lens could have elements knocked out of place

i've heard of sigma and tamron lenses with elements just held in place with double sided tape from the factory lol

>>4330434
I did move around a fair bit during the time I wasn't using it (Had to move houses and stuff, had it in my van for a bit). So that seems potentially likely. Guess I'll keep experimenting and if nothing take it back to the shop.

>>4330372
for shiggles try a shot at the following
1/2000s
f/9
whatever iso
if you still see the same thing, it's time to inspect your sensor and the lens itself.
Are you manually focusing or using AF? Is the AF working in viewfinder or does it struggle?
Are you seeing this vaseline-ness in viewfinder as well and on image replay on the jpg preview?
I'd definitely clean both sides of the front and rear element on the lens, but This feels like a bigger issue than smudged glass but could be that as well.

Looks like a classic case of user gayness, I'm afraid.

Scans need color correction. This one needs to be color corrected better. That's just how it be. If you're searching for the genuine actual true unedited sooc colors of ultramax you're wasting your time. It's a negative film, the unedited color is orange mask.
