/p/, I long for the 2000s. I miss the hangouts where someone always had a digital camera and was snapping away. I miss that sweet overexposed, sharpened, sometimes saturated look that naturally came from a digicam. Please post candid photos from the 2000s like picrel. The more unique the better.If you need help, go to Google Images and search (month) (year) and the word "flickr"ex - June 2005 flickr
>>4502635lol guy introduces digital photography to an analogue shooter. >It's the future!
>>4507230GTA VI will probably be the last time for the next decade that people actually line up for a game.
>>4515018dude no one is lining up, they’ll get a digital copy in the millions MAYBE in the cities, New York or LA, but it will be some heavily publicised and controlled event.
>>4515021Don't under estimate GTA fans, these are the same lunatics that were charting the stars to try and figure out when the trailer would drop. All it needs it some special edition box with some physical garbage in it and they'll line up beyond an entire city block.
>Nocturnal photography (also referred to as night photography) refers to the practice of taking photographs outdoors between dusk and dawn, when natural light is minimal or nonexistent.>The low-light conditions night photographers work in require specialized techniques to achieve proper exposure, including long exposures—ranging from several seconds to days—higher ISO sensitivity, or artificial lighting.>The genre encompasses a wide range of subjects, including urban and rural landscapes, architecture, industrial sites, and astrophotography.Post your night photos!
Pics with my mobile phone always come out as supernatural glow effects when photographing any kind of light source

Could this be the "bleakrooms", but from outside? The blackrooms building itself.
Wanted to share some photos of a military-frontier reenactment I went to recently.
>>4514294This. I hate how the b&w looks.
Great shots all around. Good thread.Favorites:>>4514054This one looks like it's from The Naked Spur (1953).>>4514059>>4514060The high contrast works here.>>4514065>>4514074
>>4514155 (checked)Thanks, man. The colors aren't for everyone, I suppose, but I'm still trying things out. No, it wasn't a battle reenactment. It was more of a day-in-the-life type deal. They only fired the cannons a couple of times.>>4514294Fair enough and good advice.>>4514375I really appreciate that, man! To your question, I think it's largely the color grading. To be honest, I got my first camera one year ago and haven't figured out how to edit the colors by myself in a way that produces these results consistently. I lean heavily on presets for the colors in my photos. I plan to read some books on color theory and work towards doing the colors on my own.I don't like trying to bring the shadows up too high, so I often just let the highlights clip if I think it will result in a better exposure. I try to only show off good photos. I usually shoot at 3fps, end up with more photos than I need, then only show the best ones.>>4514396Thanks. One day, we'll purge both the poisons the poisoners of our food, and we'll be as Heracles.>>4514413Glad to hear it, fren.
This could've been pure kino with film.

where do you get your ideas from?
Why has the world abandoned photo shoots of good looking women?99% of anything I see now is selfies and if its a photoshoot its just to sell clothing or some super generic looking agency testshoot. 10 years ago or whatever the world was full of every good looking girl doing multiple photoshoots just for content. What happened?
>be famous>have unlimited budged for every shot you make>get good pictureswow
>>4481289the world is saturated with content, and in that world the only thing that matters is e-girls building a parasocial following, and for that they can just use their phones
There still are real women out there. Get out there and ask. The camera in your hands, and leaving it wherever they're comfortable is the key. If you want photos of women, go ask women to take their picture. The more plausible deniability you give them, the more likely they are to say yes. If they're with friends, green flag. If you're in public, green flag.
>>4481289>99% of anything I see now is ...... amateur photography of girlfriends or desperate seekers posting slutty pictures of themselves.Blame phone cameras.
>>4486015>for some weird reasonDo you want to know what it is?
How to fix cricketing in the audio on s5mkii?I use rode shotgun mic and record on sd (if that matters) and there is a weird high pitched cricketing/pulsating noise/buzz. While video is goated, the audio issue ruined (made audio annoying to work with) in 2 of my films :/
>>4514842What was wrong with a USB-attached DAC?
>>4514853Nothing, but I had an ASUS STX which is an excellent card still to this day and it saves a lot of desktop space plus less clutter.
>>4514857USB DACs are pretty small and as you mention, are going to be far better isolated than any internal, but it's good to see you aren't contributing to e-waste. The STX was a top of the line internal card back in the day. What OS are you using and do they keep the drivers going? I also remember my GPU would cause interference with my mic and people would also get mad. Had a 980Ti and 1080Ti, not sure which one did it.
>>4514859It is still a top of the line sound card. The only current cards that come close are "gamer-centric" sound blaster RGB LED garbage. I believe there was an update that made it easier to install drivers for them on windows 11. Previously I had to safe boot and do all sorts of tricks to get them to work, but I believe we don't have to do that anymore. Either way the cards are a steal as it is a buyers market and normies don't care in the slightest about them anymore. It is fascinating just how little interest there is in that sort when you compare it back to the 90s and some time into the new millennia where it was heavily marketed. From what I understand Microsoft killed off hardware based audio rendering because it was revealed that a ton of errors and system crashes were due to badly optimized drivers from Creative.. a trend that hasn't really changed much.
>>4514861The STX might be good for an internal card but it is likely not going to test well versus USB. The autist at Audio Science Review reviewed the STX II and found it to be very fiddly with mediocre performance. Couple that with iffy drivers and they really aren't a deal unless you are going to build an XP machine. When MS killed off hardware audio, add-in cards lost a lot of reason for their existence. Not that I miss EAX or CMSS, but Aureal 3D was cool and cards could do stuff like handle different wavetable sample sets for MIDI. But now that we have these multi-core multi-GHz CPUs, there's no need. Though I do remember when offloading audio processing to a sound card could save CPU cycles and get you more FPS. I had the Creative competitor, the Titanium X-Fi HD and yeah the drivers we ass. If sound cards ever make a come back, it'll never be a Creative Labs one, that's for sure.
Who the fuck likes this focal length? What is its purpose?

>>4513163This is terrible, NGL. The depth of field is way too shallow for how he's sat, if you're going shoot at 1.4/1.8 or whatever, at least get him to sit straight, just his head being in focus is weird
>>4513163He looks like one of those Madame Tussauds wax puppets
>>4513163Looks terrible. Lemme guess, shot on nikon? It has the horrid clinical rendering of a nikon Z lens with the unnatural color science and green skin of a nikon Z body.
>>4433667>>4433668Riots happen at night sometimes, you should prioritize low light performance. It's not like you can just let auto-iso crank it up to 12,800 on something like that, the pictures will look like they're made of colored sand. And try not to get beat up and robbed, because you're an easy target.

Has anyone attempted to use a generic 12v battery to power a nikon D700 through the grip.I have a spare 12v lithium battery from a power drill that the brushed motor broke.The grip can hold up to 8 x AA batteries. AA batteries can have a voltage of 1.5 volts, so 8 * 1.5 = 12v.In theory it should work.But I'm afraid to test and destroy the camera.So, I'm asking if anyone has tried this before.
>>4514800yes and no. If your power supply is strong enough, just match the voltage. AA batteries are rated between 1.2V and 1.65V so anything between 10v and 13V will work. 12V is just the nominal voltage. No worries anon. Just make sure your external power supply can provide enough amps otherwise the voltage will drop and if the device isn't protected (it is) it'll turn off in the middle of doing something important and have problems or just die. For your Nikkon the max amps is about 2A (super low) so basically any lithium battery will work, but if you want to double check, just read the rated continuous discharge of your battery (the C) to know how many amps it can deliver (it's different from the battery capacity with is given in mAh). >t. Electrical engineer
>>4514841just two notes :1) make sure the polarity is correct 2) lithium batteries themselves are rated at a range , I doubt your battery has a regulator inside that forces the output to be 12v. But anyway the range is similar to AA batteries so no pressure
>>4514800Your "12v" pack is actually 10.8v; provided the grip can work with Ni-Cad/Ni-MH batteries, which would only generate 9.6v, it should be fine. Be sure to check the polarity, as the one Anon said.
Thinking about doing that way myself. Before buying gear have some questions. What are the pros and cons? Any ideas or suggestions?
>>4514810Using a shitty camera you own to instill inspiration through limitations is based.Purposefully buying a shitty camera someone else used to create limitations is turbo retarded.Let me guess, you already own a camera. Use it.
>>4512395i'm not a morning person, so no. sunset mogs anyway.
yes
>>4512395Yup, up 5ish, usually go for morning walk around 6ish. Love seeing the sunrise, and how the light changes all around.

No exposure bracketing, OP?
Reply if you're a real mf'er
>>4513909Oh I thought they didn't come with a gg. I have a graflex xlsw, which is a far superior contraption made from real metals and I use a universal viewfinder on a hot shoe + 69 back + zone focus and a 47mm lens. Never had focusing or composition issues and I never use the gg.If you want precise focus/composition you're going to be stuck on a tripod with a 105mm, babe.
>>4483539What is going on here? Is the low contrast because of the fog and bad lighting? Everything is grey except the tree on the right side. How to fix this? would a yellow filter improve when shooting in nature? Some binoculars have yellow filters for more contrast in the woods.
>>4514099that’s just what a lot of B&W stocks look like, you’re supposed to adjust contrast to taste when you print (or after scanning for digital workflows)
>>4503471Woah, that's way too many settings lol.I have so far pieced together that my Agfabox has a 1/30 s and bulb shutter. For the lens I can choose between f/11, f/16 OR yellow filter!Basically locked into shooting at ISO 50.
>>4514099As the anon wrote, B&W negative film is pretty low contrast intentionally. People used appropriate photo paper (these days variable contrast with filters) and dodge & burn while exposing the wet prints under enlarger. For scans the same shit is done with an image editor.That said yellow filter was/is pretty normal when shooting B&W film outdoors. Yellow filter cuts haze from scattered UV/blue light and makes blue sky more contrasty.

How does /p/ feel about zines?They seem fun. You print your stuff, distribute it however you want, and people look at it. They might toss it in the trash but at least you made an impression.You can make them for pretty cheap. I made some lo-fi DIY-style ones with my visual art at home using just an inkjet printer, and I've been dropping them in random places for people to find.Anyone ever make zines?
Who would be into a seasonal /p/ zine?
