Why are they so bad at taking photos?
>>4504396>the d5 is unironically the best low light nikonWhat the absolute fuck are you even saying
>>4504105>>4504116>>4504126Say the line.
>>4504787it's been testedthere is less noise
so did they land and walk on the moon this time?
>>4503837Because it is all fake and gay so they have to be very selective in what they show the plebs.
any final thoughts on ultra wide angle?
>>4498717>>4496620With UWA you have to be at the spot and everything should look kino, you can't just select something and compose for it because as was said everything is in the shot. I found that UWA makes things look tiny especially big mountains so it was much better for foreground objects composed with whatever is in the background. it makes the scene look meh, even spectacular ones so you better select a flower or a rock or bench, something to put in front of the scenery.
>>4499303Cinematography lens meant for wide-angle interiors and exteriors are very different animals than ones meant for film photography or digital slrs.
>>4496645i think it depends on the creative direction you are going for.
Wide angle captures a wide view of the scene.Whether that's something you want is subject to change but that's why lenses can be swapped.If you're indecisive you get a zoom lens.Walking doesn't zoom, it just changes perspective.
>>4496504Fovlets btfo!
I like having the extra possible color spaces to work with when I want
>>4493013Any milky way shots in ir?
>>4504022maybe? 23mm 10 sec, creepy edit. not sure if its milky.
>>4504054So nothing like this?
>>4493185This looks queer, have you adopted any children recently?
>>4493013It's cool, but like >>4493033 says it's also gay and retarded.Your image OP is gay and retarded.False color bullshit is what ruins it.Full spectrum or IR B&W is where it's at.
Some people say that to get rich you gotta do what others don't wanna do. For a photographer it means going to a warzone. What are some other fields in photography that can make you rich and famous but you just hate doing it?
>>4504458>Commercial photographyHow do I start in 2026?
>>4504453What is your point? Everyone has a camera, soldiers, beggars, tourists.
>>4504461You'll start at the bottom and the bottom in my mind is real estate photography. Talk to some real estate agents in your area and ask about who they hire, as they likely hire a small local company, then just talk to that company about getting a job. You will make shit pay and shit hours because you're basically a peon but it's a foot in the door.
>>4504446Not famous, but you can be rich doing product photography since most online sellers don't focus on it.
>>4504446all decent paying work is soul sucking if you want to make art
Hello /p/ I've been lurking for years and have been taking snapshits/gradually improving over time. I got some practice on my dad's Canon cameras (one digital, one film). I only have my phone camera, a go pro (hero 12?), and an ilford sprite 35mm film camera. Most of my film rolls were shot on my dad's canon film camera though. I think it's time I bite the bullet and buy a full frame (maybe mirrorless). I'm pretty sure I want to go with digital, even though film is fun.Any recommendations? I can give more info if needed. My film shots are different from my usual shots on my phone, I have a pretty varied subject/frame honestly.
>>4504429I can safely vouch for the 5Diii by Canon. I used it for years and will probably use it for years to come. Is resolution important to you? You mentioned mirrorless twice, are you looking for something specific that only newer bodies offer? Like IBIS = sensor stabilisation, or higher resolution sensors, or better low light performance?
>>4504831Pic relatedBtw. oftentimes the gear question is answered with budget
>>4504538>Canon r8 with a prime lens+1Served me somewhat well I reckon. Except I have a bunch of L zooms and the RF 100-400 that has its uses.
>>4504831 >>4504832Resolution isn't insanely important to me, but I would like something that looks nice. The only reason I mentioned mirrorless is because it's newer tech, so the lenses I buy for mirrorless will be useful for longer (I know you can use DSLR lenses on mirroess with an adapter, so maybe this is a moot point)
>>4504834I like how the green looks on the car, I marshal motorsport races so I might be taking similar photos (but I can't use a camera while I'm marshaling, so idk)
>15 years old>still produces more appealing images than any modern compact cameraHow did Leica pull this off?
>>4504700>>4504701>yeah it sucks because um... it just does OKAYWhy do Leicas always attract these retarded contrarian opinions?Don't worry anon, I'm sure there's a recipe for your X100 that looks just as good!
>>4504611Its just a rebadged panny LX
>leicaman thread>no photosIts been memed to death and still true every time
>>4504611That is not the Ricoh GR Digital (2008)
>>4504847It's like poetry it rhymes
What do you guys think?Any ideasI'm thinking it could be a weekly thing with a specific theme each week
>>4504107We used to have monthly challenge threads (as a week is honestly too short) but the OP left after a few years of running them. They were honestly pretty good, but some of the challenges were also a bit too difficult for enough people to compete in, so that lessened how many people contributed.
>>4504780I also think that having it monthly might've been a bit too ambitious.
>>4504789It's a hard balance. I think monthly can work, but the theme has to be something that anyone can realistically do, like finding certain colors on buildings or certain shapes or something.
>>4504790I think it's a bit like the world hockey cup vs the Olympic hockey cup. If it's less frequent, it will be a bigger event and more people will bother to participate.
>>4504794That could work, maybe one every 3 months. 4 times a year is an alright span for some contests imo.

We know that original Kodachrome isnt coming back due to the toxic chemicals used in developing rolls, but why arent Kodak or any other film manufacturer creating a new film stock that looks like Kodachrome? Is it really impossible to create other film stocks than these hazy yellow tinted pissy stocks available now? Ektar is way too red, Portra and Gold too yellow, Ektachrome too blue and so forth. Deep black shadows, punchy reds and yellows, good contrast, perfect blues, lots of black in all colors. No weird general color tint. If a Kodachrome copy was launched it would be a fucking goldmine $$ for Kodak or whomever launched it.
>>4504413Easy. The two on the left are Ektachrome, the two in the right are kodackrome. Easy.t. Ektachrome chad
>>4504712you are correct, not bad

https://sipacontest.com/galleryhttps://www.youtube.com/live/MblSCCiWRI0>start 55:55Aside from the "art" (most are obviously photoshopped and have minimal use of AI) this has to be the most pathetic live money laundering event of rich trust fund baby millenials and gen-z I have ever seen.So you just have me believe these are average people interested in photography? Most of these contenders come from 3rd world nations and can purchase high level equipment and have the free time and leisure to do so. If anything these are the upper class of India, Russia, South Africa, Argentina etc.Either way you can see the host just wants to wrap things up from the very beginning. What ever those ladies (in black dresses handing out the awards) behind the scenes are doing is beyond me. When leaving the stage they always need to scratch their butts. Even they dont care for the award winners and dont even give these trust fund babies a glance when handing over the award, which is funny.In regards to skill set, there are truly nice and lovely photos being presented. Some of which would make me happy having them in my portfolio. Others... seems like random images I can find on some tourists smartphone.Question to /p/:Could you do better?Which categories would you excel at?What happened to /p/ weekly or monthly contest?Why dont we try to get an image from /p/ to the upcoming Siena Awards?
>>4503386This pic would likely look better in B&W. There are too many colors making it a bit messy; yellow foreground, bright orange, White Lightning, blue clouds, magenta in the sky, black in the sky
>>4503835I certainly dont believe this was a natural picture or setting and that it was enhanced with AI
>>4503840Looked HDR/overcooked to me but didnt know it was AI.
>>4503853I have no proof this is AI. Just my opinion.P.S does anyone have the feeling one's own mind is getting lazier/dumb due to frequent AI use? e.g prompts like "correct this sentence" etc.? I feel like I cant even structure my own sentences anymore OR I doubt myself alot more than before when writting emails and posting.

You should know, if you don't already: a mind is a terrible thing to waste.
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

>>4504503I've mostly just got snapshits from the local park, nothing really worth posting. I'll have to play around with it some more and try to take some proper pictures. I think under the right conditions and with a bit of editing you can squeeze a certain look out of the camera that might be half-way decent.
>>4470128Been enjoying mine although I frequently forget I even have one on my key chain
>>4504722This is from when I just got it about a month or so ago

Just out of curiosity
>>4501999Agfa's waterproof disposable is quite nice as well.
>>4501602get a reusable disposable like the ilford sprite
>>4501837I actually picked up a cardboard one for 4 euros, cleaned the lenses and glued the mirrors back in place. Fun to use but the cardboard was bending inwards making it near impossible to open and it wasn't very happy with the 120 film spool either.I still need to develop the film but I got a better box camera for 10 euros in the meantime, one that actually works well with 120 film, a Zeiss Ikon one.Will probably get some developer tomorrow and get those negatives ready.
>>4504195With Brownies and other really low end 6x9cm 120 cameras think contact prints (or perhaps a phone screen). A 32" desktop screen does not give justice to the photos.
the funsaver is legit the best disposable but the fuji one is a close 2nd.both cost too much though.
Be honest
Depends. Do you want a camera that does what a Holga does? Then find a cheap one secondhand and have fun with it. Otherwise, just don't get one. It's a one-trick pony, but sometimes that trick is what people want.
>>4501957/thread
>>4501600I reckon you are better off with an agfa clack you can get for under 10 bucks.
I bought one in Tokyo for $10 but never shoot it
>>4501600Most fun camera I've shot.People think my purple one is neat. (shame my multicolored one is busted.)Inspector at Kansai Airport looked at my tape covered one half unsure it was a bomb.pic unrelated

Got a new job and will have expendable income. I've got lots of K-mount Pentax lenses which I like...But should I stop being a Pentax autist? Or is the K-mount ecosystem good to stay in? I've narrowed it down to:>Pentax K‑3 Mark III>Pentax KF>Pentax K‑1 Mark II (Full Frame)I'd also like to swap out my Pentax SF7 with a better body:>Pentax MZ‑S>Pentax Spotmatic>Pentax ESIIDecisions, decisions....
>>4505181research other ecosystems and better cameras whilst you wait for your lenses to sell as well as overcome your Pentism
>>4505182I tried Canon and didn't like the plastic shit. I like vintage lenses for muh creamy bokeh.
>>4502814Redpill me on Mamiya TLRs
Is there a point in having a TG-6 and an EM1-III? That's my setup right now but it feels kind of redundant
