I would travel back and take a picture of drumpf giving Bill head. I'd be set for life

>>4485966Well soon more people will start paying attention to the fact that everyone who knows anything about anything has been increasingly pointing out that it's overvalued to fucking bejeezus and back, & then you'll get your chance.
In 2019, after the death of my father, I stumbled upon a former Amish farm in central New York. I spent about 4-5 years there taking pictures. It’s a time of my life marked by instability, illusions, great learning, joy and disappointment. I hope you all enjoy looking. Feel free to let me know what you see. Will take some time to upload everything, most coming from my instagram because my mac is still in USA and I haven’t rescanned all of my negs.
>>4485929one more, nothing special. the amish are very interesting people, even if they’re inbred. during the pandemic they fought the good fight, refusing to mask up because «they don’t have TV»
>>4485914finishing with a self portrait. around 2022, we began to slowly drift apart, as the anarchy of the farm slowly got to me more and more and kyle had to get work. i would still visit often, but was aware that there was more out there for me. around this time my lens and eyes were pointed towards exploring the decay of the surrounding area. family farms wrecked by opioids, decaying businesses all around with empty storefronts. a general malaise infected the valley. so i would cruise around in my car photographing these things instead of the farm.

I've been a photography enthusiast ever since I met my girlfriend of 4~ years. I shoot with her all the time and even have gotten her into and excited about the craft. Her and I regularly go on walks, and a couple nights ago and she said something that kind of shot out of left field. We were contemplating what trail we were going to hike (my neighborhood backs up to a large recreational/forest area with many choices) and we had decided upon one and to end the conversation she says, "And maybe you don't bring the big camera this time?" and we both laughed, with my laughter just coming from confusion and a little bit of shock for such a request. I cannot for the life of me figure out why she asked this. I seldom ever shoot with a tripod when going on casual walks with her and it never gets in the way of us having a good time, I take a few pictures every walk and throw it over my shoulder and keep going. I don't let my hobby ever get in the way of our time together. If anything she's asking to shoot with me more often. That's why for the life of me I can't understand why she asked me to leave the rb67 at home. She loves shooting with me and is always asking questions to learn more about photography and film. I'm really not trying to sperg out about this, I guess im just trying to figure it out from a girl's pov. I can't help but think the reason she asked is purely aesthetic/visual, as if me hauling it around is unattractive or something. Is carrying this camera around on a semi-regular basis that strange or unfashionable? I really don't think its big enough of an issue to explicitly request I don't use it which is why im so confused.
>>4476906>short answerask her fuckshit>long answerbig cameras can be kinda cringe sometimes. idk why but it probably gives her the ick for you to carry this huge, non-nonchalant thing around. get a ricoh grIII and she'll wanna marry you.
>>4476906Get her a small om2 or rollei 35s or something that's feels tactile and interesting to use, but also easy and cute, maybe an mju

It's impossible to figure out these little social things because they're getting filtered through your own thoughts about them. If anyone gives an answer that doesn't agree with your insecurity there's a good chance you'll brush it off as "not seeing the whole picture", "you don't understand" or whatever.It sounds to me like she just made an offhand joke about how you always have the camera with you. I don't think she was seriously asking you to leave it at home. If she was hinting for that by way of a joke just keep bringing it anyway. Women find it difficult to respect men who fold under minor social pressure. She will appreciate you doing what you want to do and having some degree of conviction about that more than she'll care about you bringing a camera.>>4476925This guy is right. If you won't even just ask her directly about this one thing... Jesus, man. Things are going to be bad for you in pretty much every human relationship forever. It doesn't have to be a fight, just say "hey, the other day when you said about leaving my camera at home, is that something you'd actually like or were you just joking around?"

Help me out, I literally don't see a difference in aperture or depth of field when I change my settingsI theoretically understand how they work, but actually changing them in the camera I don't see anything different

>>4481223Negative film blows highlights to white all the time wtf are you talking about? You can recover some of that in a scan but if you want a properly exposed photo of anything that's not in direct sun on a sunny day your sky is going to be white (just as an example)

Should i get a Sony zv-e 10 II new or a Lumix S II.My goal is 4k 30fps with the highest dynamic range possible, 10bit log and fast sensor readout speed (low jellow)

I shoot black and whit 'art' photos.I print a lot. So i spend a lot of time looking at the details of each photo. especially if they're hanging on my wall.that being said, i have a conundrum which, surprisingly, isn't well covered on the internet:>would you say a leica monochrom, or a medium format (with more bits and more sensor real estate) would produce better black and white images?
>>4485349He’s a "whitey gotta pay" faggot so yes. Cattle.
>>4482927So, by that logic if I look down walking on the sidewalk and there's dogshit and it makes me pause for a second and swerve around it and it makes me dryheave with the dogshit smell...that means it has artistic value?
>>4485693Do you think dog shit can't ever have aesthetic value?
>>4485349>I don’t know shit but this is the impression I get, and it’s why everyone else is dumb, not me,Yes hi I was wondering if it were possible for you to give us more reason to think you’re a stupid asshole? Just in case there are 1 or 2 people left on earth still giving you the benefit of the doubt.
>>4482927>look at meee>attention economy dur hurrrrghSocial media brain rot cancer.
Film photography is better due to low sensitivity in dark areas. No one needs to see what is in dark areas most of the time. Just imagine this photo with unnecessary crap in shadows.
>>4470768Hello Zach, do you mind putting your name back on so I can keep filtering your posts? Thanks.
>>4485330>No. Resolution (refinement of detail) is related to contrastNo, it's related to smallest unit of information. A smallest subdivision of a storage that is the lowest limit and you can't go below it. Contrast has nothing to do here.
>>4469575>Film photography is better due to low sensitivity in dark areasdigital kicks the shit out of film for low light capture . try again retard.
>>4485559Try what? You both said the same thing.
>>4485559Yeah OP is claiming the lack of shadow detail is good because we normally wouldnt be able to see that much (in well lit scene) so it reflects realtiy in that we tend to ignore less obvious visual information.Anyway learn to read, you ESL Bangladeshi.
and a worse form of it than vidya or movies?
Everything is just escapism. At least photographyinvolves the creation of something.

>>4485237>our eye color is direclty related to our bheavior, to our intelligenceI love that any time I think I must have encountered the absolute dumbest manchild in the world, I can get on this board and within minutes one of you will prove me wrong.
So, which of the big companies is going to be the first to offer an affordable 100mp camera?Fuji is obviously already out there, but this thing is Eight thousand dollars. I suspect that when it happens (eventually) it will be Nikon. I feel like historically they are the company which has introduced high end features at a lower price.
>>4482703> 6x7 is clearly 80mp>645 is 100+mpWhich one is true?Yes, this guy in his clinical lab tests using extremely fine grain film stocks managed to get crazy resolution out of 6x7. Do you shoot 6x7? Can you provide me with a scan with 50mp of resolved detail? I doubt you can. I doubt anyone in this thread can, because as I said, those numbers are not attained by 99% of medium format shooters.
>>44827826x7 is 80mp on an old ass drum645 exceeds 100mp with modern scanning equipment
>>4480592>So, which of the big companies is going to be the first to offer an affordable 100mp camera?if you want 100 mp you are retarded. learn what pixel pitch is.
>>4480592Theres a bigger chance of the next iphone hitting 100MP than boomer mirrorless cameras
>>4485650100 mega pixels of ai slop and other assorted computer gimmickery. No thanks, I'll stick with the "boomer" mirrorless, even though mirrorless cameras only came about after the boomers had already started to die off.
The pursuit of being in the right place at the right time to capture the perfect sky no longer holds its former value when that very sky can be synthesized from colored pixels. When a dramatic reddish dawn or an approaching thunderstorm is conjured with a few strokes in Photoshop, or when a telephone receiver in a model’s hand is seamlessly swapped for a sneaker using Adobe Firefly with context-aware lighting adjustments, the photograph was, at best, merely raw material. Even the need for initial raw material is obsolete, as AI can generate sophisticated images entirely ex nihilo.Even the tangible, physical nature of the print offers no reliable refuge: A picture developed on photographic paper from a negative, held in the viewer's hand, might still originate from a digitally generated negative, or the photographer might have used analog means to re-photograph a digitally produced and printed image.In sharp contrast, painting remains a sanctuary of authenticity. Within a painting, the physical labor and the direct interaction of the artist with paint on a substrate are inherently stored and visible. The viewer holding a painted image recognizes the unique signature, the texture of the applied color, and the clear intentionality of the human creator behind it.While robots can wield a paintbrush, they cannot yet fully simulate the human touch. The immediate, non-reproducible trace of the human creator in the finished work remains the key differentiator. Traditional, handcrafted creation is reclaiming its significance.This shift in perception is already evident at art fairs which do not show specifically photographs: Visitors often walk past photographs but pause thoughtfully before paintings. In art, people are not seeking the perfect illusion; they are seeking the visible, verifiable, and therefore authentic trace of another human being.

>>4485626One needs to know which primes work best for their style of shooting. For me its 35mm and 50mm equivalents.
>>4485589>I think you're really overestimating how not-great most DSLR primes actually wereThere were good ones and bad ones. The good ones are far superior overall.
>>4485499I started with the A6700 and handling an A6000 feels like shit. I think dedicated platforms should outperform phones by a large margin, and yet this shit feels horribly handicapped.
>>4485577Don't DSLR's have the shutter closed all the time unless they're in live view? Why do mirrorless shit the bed like that?
>>4485499Was in the same situation as you 2-3 months ago. Switched to A7C2. The body itself is almost the same weight as the a6700 and you get FF with it. Downside, is that lenses are bulkier. Upside is that you have all the benefits of fool frame (like zoom lenses actually being sharp), tons of IBIS, etc. Pretty happy with my decision and wouldn't have upgraded to a6700 personally. It's way too heavy for APS-C.
Can UV filters help to reduce purple fringing?
>>4481608>Doesn't understand T-stops or why they exist
What even causes that?
>>4485444Fringng? Lack of optical correction which allows aberrations. What are aberrations? Normally different wavelengths of light bending at different values which means red and purple hit the sensor in slightly different areas and so on.Vintange lenses will normally exhibit some strong fringing since they didnt quite get there yet in terms of optical engineering, but it's also why modern superzooms or teles or even your wide aperture normals are like twice the size of vintage stuff: extra elements and better engineering that requires larger glass surfaces will aid in reducing aberrations at the cost of, well, cost and size. Purple fringing seems to be the most common but I never looked into why, just that some photography software has inbuilt adjustments specifically for it.
>>4479561based Darktable enjoyer. Raw chrom ab also works great
>>4479561also if you go into >lens corrections and then manipulate >tca override to align the red and blue channels in the RAW, you can actually eliminate almost all fringing entirely, it's an incredible feature that I randomly stumbled upon watching a DT youtube tutorial
