No matter how many times I try or how long, no matter how many tutorials I watch on youtube, my photos invariably still look digital. What am I doing wrong?
>>4522469Anon setting aside all the shit-flinging in this thread, that's a beautiful exposure.
I miss those lil Kodak thumb scroller cameras.
>>4522624Well ty. I am also very happy with it.
>>4522634You can still buy them
>>4522624LMFAO
Nesecito información sobre la piedra de flamel alguien que me ayude a investigar sobre el tema o algo parecido no para boludeces es serio si
Soft EditionThe aim of this thread is to discuss compact digital cameras (digishits) and share photos from them.If your digishit has a "soft" picture mode, take some photos with it and share them in this thread. Feel free to share your digishit photos taken in any other picture mode, too.Previous Thread: >>4477534
This pic was taken with a Canon Powershot G5 in 2004
>>4522721I had the opportunity take the exact* same camera to the exact same place last month. Beautiful idea, but trees grow a lot in 24 years.*Mostly the same camera, had to transplant the top controls assembly from another G5 with a stuck shutter I bought for parts
>>4506479Is this the designated sony thread?
Hi, I did a short film, you guys might find it interesting. I hope you enjoy. it was shot on a GoPro hero 13https://www.yout ube.com/watch?v=RCrfiNsqFbk
interesting how /p/ changed. I'm just back after a good 9 years and I am astonished: back then this movie would have been destroyed beyond imagination. today I read a polite and rather constructive feedback. Maybe a good thing, that I and all the other nutheads from back then disappeared.Still I can't resist to give feedback (and I'll try to adept to the current manner, but that will have limits): I'll call that movie rather 'moving photography' than a movie. But ofc many arthouse cra.. ehm stuff is like that. Even under consideration of the limited pre-conditions it still violates the filmmaker's first rule: you shall not bore.The absence of any plot, the always same kind of framing, the perma-close-ups, the fish-eye-optic, the washed-out look, the under-exposed grading. all that is fun to look at ... for like 20 seconds.Fighting with limits in budget and possibilities should set the focus on the things, that cost no money but only talent. ... you know, when you got a million dollar of budget and you then produce a movie like that, it may be art. maybe. but if you work on no-bodget then for gods sake make your fucking job and entertain me.
>>4522541>the filmmaker's first rule: you shall not bore.who gives a fuck? have you never heard of slow cinema?
>>4519002I think this showcases impressive photography works. I really like how impactful your composition and contrasts are, in my opinion this is professional and neat. But as a film, it lacks some narrative to keep my attention.
>>4519215>>4522554>>4522631thanks
>>4522554To be boring is to stagnate and waste time, regardless of the work's pacing. If a face-paced work takes too long to pick up speed, it's boring. If a slow-paced work comes to a standstill for no discernable gain, it's boring. Whatever your intention, the point is to keep the viewer engaged.
Theme: CloudsAll photos must be taken during the current challenge month. No old or archived shots.Get creative and enjoy the process. Unique perspectives are encouraged!
Fuck the thread is still up I might as well shareI tried making a pinhole lens which is why this looks so shitty
I saw this while droving home from the grocery store yesterday. I'm still not satisfied with the photos I got because none of them can quite express how the clouds looked in real life - they had such volume and dimension to them, it was like seeing a bubbling angry tide coming in upside down and breaking upon the hills.
>>4520619Pretty cool it worked at all, let alone enough that we can tell sky, clouds, and a horizon of sorts.
Clouds around the eclipse
Will update as images are processed, will be Speedweek and a bunch of other stuff I did over the months.
>>4522012That 240 with the dinner plates those guys are regulars here, they got a bunch of bikes too they run. I shot them too those will be on here later I'm between errands today so just posting what I can for now. This was a busy Speedweek I shot over 5000 images. A lot of them were just holding down the button on my D3 and D4 and letting them eat while cars went by.This car packed it in early, the salt at the big end sucked this year and anyone with big power couldn't put it down toward the end. I could hear these guys over the horizon hopping over shitty parts of the salt trying to get traction but couldn't see them because of the curvature of the Earth. This is a 300+ mph car.
This team flew over here from New Zealand and ran all week. "Kiwis can't fly but they sure can try"
I have a few of this guy. He lost control at the 3 1/4 and bought the farm. Frame broke in half, engine separated. Driver lived, we had another one early in the week wreck too at the big end and he also survived.
Insta and whatever else thread for wherever anons post their photos.https://www.instagram.com/mondatta.photography/Do any of you tend to go for certain themes and styles? Or just try anything?
>>4522626Your first mistake was thinking anyone would give a fuck to begin with. That's the kind of thing you do for yourself not for some kind of outside validation.
>>4522626>I'm gonna pick a hyper specific example of commercial photography to state that there is NO alternative to Instagram if you ever want to show your work to anyone
>>4522628But this isn't commercial stuff, I do this for free. I pointed out that it's extremely common, from what I saw, to be judged based on IG statistics.>>4522627Some people care. I know, because I heard just that. Aside from that, I believe photos exist to be shown.
>>4522636>photos exist to be shown>have hyper-specific photos>nowhere to show them>pic rel
>>4522626So you disconnected from things humans like and now photograph things thirdies and bots like. Gotcha.
>it now cost $20 to develop film only with no prints or scansAHHHHHHHHH
>>4517513>It costs less than $3 per roll to develop color (c-41) at home. If you are so bothered about lab prices and have the time, get a dev kit and do it at home.Home color darkroom niggas are as bad as the guys that reload ammo>spends thousands of dollars on equipment, consumables, and dedicates a room to doing something>spends hours of free time that could have been spent shooting doing it>SEE! LOOK HOW MUCH CHEAPER IT IS!
>>4521800>color>darkroom
>>4468303If you can do C41, you can do E6.
I can currently get it done for about $18 a roll. Still a shitload compared to years prior but it's easier than filling my home with more shit and I also get a choice between a Noritsu scanner or Fujifilm Frontier.
>>4521800Anon, the only difference between B&W and C-41 is the temperature control and one extra wash. Throw it into paterson like any other film.
Ima filmmaker, I got into film photography about a year ago. I've always been drawn to telling stories, so instead of chasing perfect shots, I try to create images that feel like they're part of a larger narrative. I'm not sure what you'll feel looking at this set, but I'm curious to know what it makes you think.
>>4521521the chain ruins everything
>>4521521Feels soulless, like it's just a regular snapshit that was converted in post to black and white.
>>4521521>woman>chain>cheap umbrellaBit pretentious really
>>4521521Amateur opinion (as in, I casually browse /p/ every now and then and I'm in no way a professional photographer):- I would unironically crop it, I feel like there's too much empty space around the model that's kinda wasted with nothing interesting for my eyes to follow- I get the "she's chained, but wants to be free" vibe from it, which I find pretentious, although that's not necessarily what you had in mind- I think it would be nice to have some interesting shadow-play in the photo, so that the model (or parts of her, or anything else really) "pop" more, dunno if that makes sense?- I don't like her tattoo, but it's more of a nitpick really, the dress seems classy (would benefit from a bra though), but the tattoo kinda gives off a trashy vibe, YMMV - also fuck them shoes, would look better in sandals or with bare feet- ...and speaking of nitpicks, I'd probably edit out the carrying strap on top of the umbrella in post, the pitch black bit - all this empty space with a soft gray cloth and then wham, super dark line - eyes drift to it because it pops, but there's nothing (of excitement) thereI probably couldn't take as nice of a picture myself with my current, non-existent skill level, but I genuinely don't like it all that much.I'll still give you props for posting (kudos), because it's easier to criticise than to post something you've made yourself, so take all my shit with a massive grain of salt end of the day.
>>4521521i feel angry you're having me look at this bullshit. it feels fake and aimless. what did you think the story was with this image?
First time taking photosDon’t have a camera yet so used 3ds I think this one looks quite nice
>>4522349Performative, but cool.
>>4522380people here are a bit on edge about gear. if you don't want to be told you're performative, 1. use the recent photo thread if you are not posting a series and 2. don't be a tripfag.
>>4522381Ok ty im new here
>>4522349>>4522350both are cool but i really like the second one. the sun glare feels very 2000s. u have more?
I've only ever shot on film, looking to buy a dslr. What's all this other stuff, the CDs and other cables. Is it important I buy one that includes them? Or am I fine with the camera body, CF card and battery alone?
>>4522528NoYou need a camera body, a medium telephoto lens, a memory card, a battery, a charger you can get a card reader that plugs into your computer for 15$ at any Best Buy in the country
So this one is about horizon and field?
>>4521151Thank you.
>>4521147I can’t exactly pinpoint what it is, but I really dislike this composition. Probably because it tries too hard to follow the thirds rule and thus pushes the man too much to the left. Also he is facing away from the centre which makes it look odd. Couldn’t the photog tell him to look towards the rocket? Would have been infinitely more pleasant. Picrel is a recent photo I took.
>>4522354>I can’t exactly pinpoint what it is, but I really dislike this composition.To me it looks like it's a crop from the original. As in original photo got posted somewhere online and what you see here is a sloppy crop to make it fit in the article. It doesn't look original.
>>4522354It's because he's half turned towards the left and out of the frame instead of into it. There should usually be more space on the side the subject is facing, (the show Mr Robot breaks that rule a lot) A better composition would be if the photographer was on the grass side of the guy and he faced him. Also maybe look better showing his shoes with a bit of space underneath.
>>4521147ad astra per aspera you stupid fucking idiot
Kodak Charmera kings rise up
>WAOW IT'S JUST LIKE FILMFujislugs are a blight on the world, and I count charmera fags as fujislugs in spirit
>>4520821You don't seem ok.
>>4514985this could've been a smartphone app
Shot this at Monza Circuit. What do you think about the composition/framing? Camera: Canon EOS R50Lens: RF-S 18-150mm F3.5-6.3 IS STMISO: 200Shutter Speed: 1/100sAperture: f/6.3
>>4515045This was the first attempt at a panning shot.I know it's bad, but there something i like about it
>>4515047you know what would be god tier? is if you could have the blur going behind the car.not sure how to achieve that, you'd need to pan first and then stop I guess?
>>4519406i don't think you would have the car very sharpI went back to Monza again for the Eurocup 3 weekend last week. 800+ shots, very few good. This is by far my favourite
>>4519406You could combine a panning shot with a zoom pull and get something close to what you're going for. Otherwise what you want is a night-time second-curtain flash shot with enough organic exposure time to get a drag of the car behind it.Both are things I will try on my next track day.
Moar?
ooh so pretty.. thread for me, I love flowers. are plebs allowed to post? I only have phone fotos.thinking of buying a D3200 aps-c and an 18-55mm though. can you guys give me tips on how to take good close up flower pictures with a real camera?
Nice thread
