got an iphone 13 last year after having pure ass so i've been trying to take more photos. makes me wanna get a decent rig
>>4473091Was it like a reward? I thought zoomers loved eating ass for some reason...
>>4473092love eating ass don't get me wrong but it gets boring after time. thats why i got into /p/hotography
been eying the 13 pro, but it's still a little too much for me
>>4473094got mine second hand, if i didn't need a phone i would've just got a camera. just not worth it
>>447309413pro is still a great phone, I think nothing Apple has made since has matched it in battery life. Would still be rocking mine if I didn’t shatter it into pieces
What is HDR in files? Can I export any RAWs as HDR in RawTherapee? Or do I need a special camera that captures extra data in the RAW? Do you use this?
>me, creating HDR raws out of three raws with different exposure
>>4466694And only apple products support it properlyAnd no one fucking cares because a proper 16 bit raw to 8 bit srgb jpeg conversion produces a good looking image just like 14+ stop DR film always produces good 8 stop DR prints
>>4466704>me, creating HDR raws out of five exposure brackets, each a pixel shifted raw comprised of 16 Bayesian filter crushing raws.>which I will show to no one bc fuck everyone>and then accidentally delete when moving data around between different ssd’s>ahhh to be a photographer
>>4466625>>4466694>>4466503It goes "beyond white" relative to SDR. Obviously HDR has a signal value of 0.00 to 1.00, just like SDR, but whereas SDR's "comfortable white" is the max value of 1.00, most people will place their Comfortable White, aka the SDR White, at around 200 nits, out of a spec maximum of 10,000 nits. Thus, the headroom to go "beyond white".
>>4466284>16bit improves color rangeWhat kind of nigger says this?
went out to take some photos
>>4472331>grey slopbased and underexposedlearn to meter
>>4472713i think thatt it almost looks like a cartoon or print someone has made rather than a photo. it's got a kinda simplistic feeling.also the ultrawide crop makes it look like a desktop backgroundare you the bird guy that likes to take pics of seagulls from /rpt/?
>>4472785Nah, I'm just a random guy. Saw a blank bird face and a blank grey sky and thought they could work together nicely.>also the ultrawide crop makes it look like a desktop backgroundOr could be printed as a bookmark.
Thanks for sharing, anon. I enjoyed the photos.
>>4472343>>4472355>>4472375
>you take a photo of someone on the street and you get this reactionhow do you respond?
>>4459371let's see your photos
>>4458951The trick is to pretend to take a photo of something else and they happen to walk in frame. Then they have to apologise
>>4472276>Streetfags must lie and deflect in order not to get their shit pushed inHere's your "Least Genuine Photog" Award
>>4469348thanks to the internet most people like to act like they're more important or dangerous than they really aremost people are just living a LARP in their head 24/7
>>4458951the flag lapel pin on the guy makes me think he's been in plenty of photos and only freaked because the photog looks like a schizo freak
Lately I have seen a lot of studios offering this kind of service now. It looks a good way to make some extra money. People use different kinds of setups and I'm trying to figure it out the best one for a better result. So far, I think a macro flash is the best option. Also, after the photo of the eye is taken, an intense photoshop edit is required to clean up the eye and ingest it in a template to achieve the final picture as this one. What are your thoughts about it? Let's talk.
>>4472270I'm sorry your thread got derailed by pseuds and racist trolls OP; I don't have any experience with iris photography but I do think they're cool pictures. I assume you're editing them to have a consistent dilation? do you ever include the pupil too?
>>4472400You would know about dilation, triggered troon tard.
>>4472270>servicewhat service is this, exactly?
>>4472406MI6 probably
Anybody got that image, of a firework reflecting off the iris of a woman. I tried the net, found only AI slop. I remember seeing it on 4chan /p/. It was shot at about 45 degrees to the left, and the background was a cool blue, like what you see in evening or early morn. It was zoomed in, so only the eyes and a bit of background was visible.
Holy hell those fuckers get greedy. This GX8 has its forward dial missing yet MPB says "it's ok, just buy it goy".Private used market (classifieds, ebay) doesnt look much better. they want hundreds of Euros for essentially trash. all the Lumix GX9 around here are like 800 euros. WTF dudes. many times classifieds are even more expensive than MPB (where you get 12months of warranty lol)and dont get me started on fuji prices lol. i'm not even looking anymore at those anymore.fucking camera market I swear. you write the seller and ask them for a proper price and they block you because "only sincere offers" then you look and their shitty 10yo cam is still listed as unsold months later because who's going to spend 1k on a shitty 10yo m43 cam with a kit lens lol?i hate boomers its unreal
>>4472902Thanks for your concession :DGood luck impressing girls that can't even stand to look at you :D
>>4472911Yes. You think lawyers wear suits because they’re comfortable or so they can look more like lawyers?Image mattersImage matters more than ability. This is an actual fact. >>4472913Projection
>>4472915>Yes. You think lawyers wear suits because they’re comfortable or so they can look more like lawyers?>Image matters>Image matters more than ability. This is an actual fact.Not only is this not true, its not even relevant to the post you replied to. It's a totally unrelated cope. You think you have ability but you refuse participate in the appearance aspect. But the truth is you just have no ability to do.
>>4469311You Schizo's did it. Used Sony and Fuji gear is finally beginning to come down in price. New Fuji cameras are finally back in stock at major retailers. Thank you schizo anons. Keep preaching the word. Snoy is green! Fuji is a meme!
I bought an X-T2 in 2021 for way, WAY less than the cheapest option available many years later.
largeformat chads, monorail users specifically, what is your tripod setup? I have a chunky set of legs, and currently i've just been bolting it straight to the monorail which works, but as you can imagine is limiting in terms of any sort of adjustments, outside of fiddling with the legs. I guess, what heads have you found work for your big chunky cameras? Looking at one of picrel but i don't want to buy a dud.
>>4472010Op here I basically kinda felt the same but anons provided some good suggestions, basically it sounds like you just want a 3 way so get the 3 way. I’m gonna look on eBay like that other anon suggested
I've got a great head (2 way old manfrotto with hex platform). Problem is my tripod, also manfrotto. Bought it from some video guy out in the suburbs. One leg won't properly lock, the supports' inside-beam ball locks are shot. Can someone recommend me a good tripod, just the tripod? I'm a Canacuck so it has to be something like a reliable model that is plentiful used. My budget is very small.
>>4472194Used gitzo carbon like in pic>>4472142They're absolutely rock solid.
>>4472194>>4472203Also canacuck here, we have benro at my local shops which is basically a gitzo clone for cheaper. If you can swing for a gitzo even used is fine, go for it, but I’m very happy with my chunky leg benro, it holds up the 4x5 monorail without any sweat, solid and steady.
>>4472300I'm usually transporting the set up by bike, so weight and bulk aren't big concerns.
What are your setups? Which products can you recommend? And wtf are the bastards from negative supply snorting to justify their pricing?speaking of: Does anyone have the STLs from tonecarrier? I am a poor bastard and want to try them out. other than that, I had no luck with the free printables you find on thingyverse etc.
>>4467036Zach? Put your name back on
>>4467038What exactly are you accusing me of?
>>4466199>yes, everyone shoots macro
I wanna start DSLR-scanning. I've always been using my N75 and developing at home. But now i want a DSLR on a budget anyways. I want to get a D3200 and a vintage 55mm with the PK-13 Extension. Will this give me satisfying results /p/? I am an amateur still, go easy on me
>>4464841I don’t have a photo of my setup but it’s nothing fancy. I basically repurposed an old big cube 3d printer that had a busted hotend so it’s my adjustable copy stand now which works out well. I’ve got an EOS R with the laowa 100mm macro (had this combo for ages not just for film digitizing) and some bright backlight. My laptop is right there and I do a tethered session while also fine adjusting the printer from it. Pretty fun, can adjust heights easy for 35mm and 120. You mentioned 3d printing, my film holders are printed as well and work just fine (this one: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:6177136) but need a pretty well calibrated printer cause tight tolerances. It’s not a perfect setup my light could be better (just some generic light panel from Amazon) but for black and white it works out pretty good anyway. >>4464842Digital ice only works on colour film what if the homie is shooting BW
This thread is dedicated to close-range photographic captures utilising macro-optical imaging configurations to achieve greater reproduction ratios. Got it? Good now upload some shit. Last thread: >>4376661
>>4470254Yes. The biggest softbox you can bother buying and mounting is going to help. Reflective umbrellas are also very useful but that's more for things like the watch than living macro out and about. Alternatively you can bounce flash which is super effective for normal shots, but for macro I would recommend only trying that if you have a particularly strong flash.>>4470425>I need a ... monopodHmmmmm, nah. If you're going to do it, do it right and get a tripod with a macro rail. I can see why a monopod is tempting, but trust me all you'll be doing is saving yourself a stop or two of movement shake (omg it's just like ibis goys!). That or get a speedlite and softbox, which is more mobile and versatile, but risks the lighting looking harsh.
>>4470580Great shot!
from last summer. Think I used a headtorch to illuminate the bottom, but dont remember.
How was that softness of 1980s centerfolds shot on Ektachrome achieved? Was it lens itself or was dude using some filters on his large format camera?
>>4469786It's a lens made by Zuiko with 6 elements from like the 70/80's.
>>4461642welcome to 4chan were 99% of it is autistic people who read something somewhere once and think they're experts on the topic
>>4461630>You can use a soft focus lens, or if your system doesn't offer one you can just use a filter with Vaseline or something smeared on it. There are filters like soft focus filtersA soft focus lens gives a specific, different effect than a soft focus filter or a filter with vaseline smeared on it.
>>4463005why are you posting pics of men, are you gay
>>4469784do you put your penis in there?
Who the fuck likes this focal length? What is its purpose?
>>4472252you forgot to add that only pentax cameras are allowed, every other brand gives you bad pictures by default
>>4472282this but unironically
>>4472191That's a good photo anon. Evokes a sense of exploration and majesty. Thanks for posting it.
>>4472282Oh I forgot about Pentax. What's their current most successful model of full frame camera being sold today?
>>4472192>Nobody likes 28mm. Theres a reason why 35mm is the most popular, then 24mm. 28mm is the wide angle no mans land.I own 24, 28, and 35 ... in multiple formats (35mm and 6x7 equivalent). 28mm is the most useful by far. Wider than 35 while still not too exagerated so it's still "general purpose". 24mm is entirely different, 24 is where it starts to really look artificially wide. Which is a plus if that's what you want. But for "general purpose", the widest is 28mmPic related, made with a 55/3.5 Pentax 6x7, equivalent to 28/1.7 in full frame terms.
Glad I held off getting the iM20 because this looks like the TTL flash of my dreams, especially since I like the Uncle Terry look It's pretty cheap, should I buy it? Inb4 buy an ad
>>4472693I would like a little more flash power yes. Better to have too much and turn it down a little than to have not enough.
>>4472675I have the iM20, and have enjoyed it on a a few different setupsI also just never ever use TTL when using flash
>>4472703ok, consoomer cattle
>>4472775>no, i am better at shopping than you! me find best deal on toy! me save $50 with me useful skill of using toy differently!This time you’re spending flexing about the specifics of how you spend money on a useless toy (your phone takes jpegs too) is all you will ever have. Me, I’m a sadist, so if I hurt your feelings I at least get a boner, and I exclusively post on the clock so I’m paid for it too
>>4472775>Thinking $50 is an obscene amount of moneymind broken third worlder lmao
Let's have a thread on Greg GirardYeah I am thinking he is kino.
>>4472614I've seen it. I'm surprised there isn't a popular manga based off him. Seems like prime material.
>>4472544>dude teal and orange lmaoLanier tier
>>4472848He did this in last century before you were born and there was no teal and orange meme
Have loved his work for a long time (vancouverfag reporting). The guy is fucking retarded when it comes to his books though. He ruins half the shots by double page spreading and putting important compositional elements right in the gutter. Id totally buy more of his books if it wasn't for this.
>>4472628This. If you check his posts with his "huge" follower base he has almost no comments every time. But always 1000+ likes, which are from bots. Real engagement at his follower size and for those likes would be at least 20+ genuine comments. He is a botter.
Hi /p/.I was attending anime con two weeks ago and I would like to dump some (primarily) stage photos and ask for suggestions on improvement. Somewhere around year ago I made similar thread and got many valuable suggestions so I figured out I could ask again. Despite trying to apply more of your advices, I feel like I did rather mediocre this year, compared to previous one, however. But I would like to hear your opinion too.I remember that photo dump threads are generally welcome here but if not, just say so. Thanks in advance for any advice. If you want, I could upload RAW files for selected photos on temporary link like catbox or something.
>>4472764Here it is: https://www.instagram.com/sabi.sif.photostuffIts just starting, however. Im not very used to this whole social network stuff, I normally upload my photos to my own private site (sabi-sif.mb4.pl) and polish cons have only polish descriptions.>I used to shoot a few cosplayers at cons too, you made me want to do it againGood to hear. Personally, I really like this feeling when I photograph beginners or amateurs and the joy that it makes them.
>>4472720>This could probably be done automatically if someone from darktable put in the workthe little magic wand icons next to the mask exposure & contrast compensation slidersminor UI issue, tone equalizer has to be active first otherwise clicking one of the two will only activate the module and not auto-detect>you're using these modules wrongI was going to point it out too but I'm not confident enough to offer alternate suggestions, so I figured let people use what works for them
>>4472757not OP, but I don't really care for how he edited any of those photosnot the process, not the end results eitherbut hey no accounting for taste
>>4472770>the little magic wand icons next to the mask exposure & contrast compensation slidersI love you nona
>>4472759>these are all actual womenThe two on the left fool no one>5 o'clock shadowIf you're so blind you can't spot a tranny, how can you expect to produce good photography? Photography first and foremost is about seeing.
>some of the greatest photographs of human history were, on a technical level, blurry, grainy pieces of shitTell me again why you need edge-to-edge sharpness, 100 megapixels, and the ability to shoot at 124,000ISO?
>>4464533>Tell me again why you need edge-to-edge sharpness, 100 megapixels, and the ability to shoot at 124,000ISO?Because i need a crop of a corner at night like your pic related
>>4464679It’s the deep state trying to prevent you from enjoying your photography hobby anon
>No other portraits posted>Just another argument threadFaggots.
>>4464533There is a difference between highest-circulation of reference photos of historical figures, and optimal portraits. Certain photos carry memetic value and get spread more than others, despite being technically inferior
>>4464533tech specs are the refuge of the autistic mind. real photographers just go out and shoot. autistic gear enthusiast go online and post in forums.
