Any love for the Game Boy Camera and printer here?Sure nowadays even the chinkest of cameras and printers may be better with printing via phone bigger and clearer photos but there's a certain charm and fun in doing with with a Game Boy of all things.
I fucking love the Gameboy Camera, here's a few pics I took.Always wanted to get one of those upgrades, an optical zoom would be so cool.
>>4470551No way me too
It gets surprisingly good detail.
Can someone tell me what lightning equipment I would need, to recreate either of those photos?

Post your man bags
>>4461465I currently just carry my camera on a diagonal shoulder strap. I used a camera bag for a while but I haven't found it particularly convenient, and found stashing my camera away is a great way to keep me from taking photos. I could do with a good all purpose backpack though and some way to store a lens or two and some filters, that type of stuff. Pretty happy carrying my stuff on the strap right now. I carry everything from film P&S to an R6 II with 24-70 2.8 and battery grip on a strap.
I'm thinking about getting something that holds a big lens (canon 24-105 won't fit my jeans pocket) for times when I'm shooting at an event but can't be bothered to carry my whole bag with me at all times but still need one lens for change. some kind of milsurp pouch that could go on my pants belt? any ideas?

What is it with people that shoot on film?Film is expensive to film, develop and scan.Yet what do they do? They film the most mundane bullshit.Traffic lights. Or some mediocre bullshit to some obscure indie song.Why do they all do this?If you're gonna spend hundreds of dollars. Atleast film something good. But it's like they think the vintage aesthetic will make their shit good.It's like they just want to see what their mundane boring life would look like on film.
>>4477186>I'm whitePost hands.I find it hard to believe a first worlder would struggle with recharging a battery every once in a while.Maybe if you live in a backwards shithole like Greece, I'd understand.

The idea that I could have fucked up an entire photography trip, and wouldn't even know it until days later scares me.

What are some landscape photographers for the 21st century?

>>4477818No matter how pretty, if you can't spend five minutes looking at a photo, it isn't interesting enough.
>>4477872ADD issue
>>4477818Hello there Burke, nice to see you again
>>4477752That was intentional so that people could figure out this was a small pool on a rock and not some big huge lake>>4477784It's the sliding word, but you have to solve a bunch of captchas and then only type the words with the circle above them its annoying>>4477799yeah but now it looks like it was shot on expired film and the colors look weird and oversaturated
Do you print your photos, anon?
>>4472235fuck no
>>4477592you still have zero publishers. :)

The findings reveal that landscape pictures on Instagram echo Romantic era paintings, using similar motifs and aesthetic strategies. Instagrammers, like 19th-century Romantic painters, emphasize themes of solitude, mystification, sublimity, and nostalgia, contrasting sharply with contemporary issues like ecological crises. By staging and aesthetically transforming nature, Instagrammers medially reverse the destruction of nature and create idealized landscapes that evoke a bygone, pre-industrial era and an intact human-nature relationship. Accordingly, landscape images on Instagram can be interpreted as a new idealized, romantic reality or as a postmodern reinvention of Romanticism. Instagrammers seek out photo locations based on their ability to synthesize as many physical elements as possible into an ‘instagrammable’ scenery, creating a stereotypical romantic landscape image.

Alright, /p/. I got my first nice camera JUST IN TIME for a 2-week vacation where I shot over 14,000 photos in various levels of motion, light, and subject type. Throughout my trip I experimented a lot and really started to internalize the exposure triangle to the point where I'm perfectly comfortable shooting manual without any confusion or issues.At this point, I feel like I've learned enough that I just need to practice practice practice, but I have almost zero experience with post-processing photos. I have over a decade of casual experience with Adobe programs, so I'm at least familiar with image stuff, but it was mostly UX design and motion graphics. I'm a bit colorblind, so I fear I'll never be able to do any decent color grading, but I'd really like to start dipping my toes into post-processing photos so I can start shooting in super low light, and generally just touching up my favorite shots.What tips do you have for a beginner here? What software, workflow, techniques, etc. do you use, and what things should you always do, or avoid doing in post?
>SQUARE CROP FROM THE TOP ROPE>>4476171Don't save your first pass as HEIF because there's no compatibility for it outside of huehue le macintoss. The world runs on JPG.No harm in converting it to that for your own uses if there's compatilibity but beware the conversion process is making its own assumptions about your image when it does its magic.
I don't understand why people even try to post prod these kinds of shitty pictures. It's literally hurting my eye. You should buy some film camera and learn when not to take a picture
>>4477850>learn when not to take a picturethis level of intuition is only given by the angels of heaven
>>4477850>Learning and practicing how to process is completely useless unless the picture is perfect to begin withWell, obviously the answer is that you should share some of your great work so we can all practice our processing with it

How important is it to study photography through the library? What books do you recommend for beginners? What are the best photo books?
>>4475940This kinda happened to me and a couple of friends, it just means you reached a technical level of a pro but also the mind of a drone faggot pro cunt who delivers perfectly good product but nothing that he really likes or cares about, the kind of guy who can answer the hows but not the single why.If you shoot on auto or something you like (aperture or shutter priority) and just go for photos you like but don't know why you will probably find again your inner, real tastes. The trick is to not overthink, just see shit you like and quickly take a pic, if you start wondering how to perfect the settings then you will bust your mind, just check the composition and there's that.
>>4475940You are confused about the D2x, which takes a skillled and intellegent photographer to get consistantly successful pictures from it.
>>4466027fascinating to see that /p/ can't detect a patently obvious b8 image/post
>>4475940>if I make shit up without evidence people will believe mesure, post your good old photos LMAO
>>4476928Par for the course really. Most people here are tourists who don't engage with the majority of 4chan and don't know the culture. They didn't even understand Sneed for a long, long time. It's an insular community that doesn't recognize infamous 4chan material that has been posted for over a decade now. You'd think someone interested in photography would at least use /tv/, /ic/ or /lit/ but they're not. You press them and the only boards they tend to crosspost on are the likes of /a/ or even /b/. Which explains why they care so much what a camera looks like, they're trying to cosplay basically. Unsurprisingly being weebs a lot of them are trannies, the pipeline is real.
Do you submit to magazines or prizes? I know the meme is that you can only hope to leave just one or two worthwhile photos after you die. But what’s wrong with trying to build a career?
If I had the money, I'd participate in the Mobile Photography Awards, alas the entry fees turn it into gambling
What's the best film grainy emulation halation dreamy vintage type x mount lens? Just bought an XH2S and want to shoot kino. Preferably under $600 and I only really shoot like somewhere between 16-24mm or something. Thanks a lot
>>4477506Lenses do cause grain and other effects. You are just objectively wrong.>need a high bitrate to color gradeDo you need high bitrate to color grade. Have you ever traded color grading shitty footage? It's impossible. It looks bad no matter what you do.>I only shoot video so bought a fooljiXH2S is superior to Panasonic/Sony/BMPCC and any of other cameras in the price range.>>4477497Nikon mount is better than Canon mount
>>4477822>XH2S is superior to Panasonic/Sony/BMPCC and any of other cameras in the price range.Mmh, I don't particularly agree, sure, it's way better than any Sony, but Panasonic has way better menus and the BMPCC shoots objectively better footage if you got like $2000 extra to rig it up.No fault towards the X-H2S video though, it would be genuinely one of the best pro bodies you could buy if they actually fixed the autofocus. Shame.
>>4477822>Lenses do cause grain and other effects.quadrupling down on the b8 huh
>>4477878Have you heard of vignetting, soft focus, noise, chromatic aberration?
>>4477883That's not grain. Have you heard of tabular and T?
Where can I learn about optics and optical science? I want to know more about cameras to the point I could know everything about a camera’s settings without looking at metadata. I want to know if I can work out a camera’s settings or lens just by looking at a photograph and analysing it. For instance, can you work out the shutter speed or aperture through deduction if you already know the ISO or focal length or distance to subject or depth of field? My question is about the exposure triangle and knowing whether one element in a camera’s setting can give you clues to the other elements. Surely there have been forensics used on this level, in some sort of criminal case. Or do they usually only look for manufacturing clues for the camera’s build and make?
>>4477601them maybe start here:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BmFQrYnDzhM
>>4477608*then
>>4477601>For instance, can you work out the shutter speed or aperture through deduction if you already know the ISO or focal length or distance to subject or depth of field? My question is about the exposure triangle and knowing whether one element in a camera’s setting can give you clues to the other elements.Yes. There are tons of exposure calculators. Google EV DOF calculator to mess around with them. Knowing the time and place can help you figure out the general light level (EV) which gives you an idea of typical exposures. Perspective helps find focal length e.g. a landscape with compressed features is more telephoto unless it was a crop. Noise levels helps find ISO unless they used a denoiser. Motion blur helps find shutter speed. Depth of field will tell you aperture assuming you know subject distance and it's not a crop or stitch. Dynamic range can help you find out sensor size and color science can help you identify the manufacturer. Without EXIF, just the resolution gives big clues. Chromatic aberration, vignetting, field curvature, bokeh are useful for figuring out the lens e.g. apochromatic, apodization, the swirly bokeh Helios etc. For optics in general, there are some good tutorials out there. There's a good beginner series by the guy behind the Google Pixel phones on Youtube. 1001 lens nights by Nikon is fun read about the development of their lenses historically and the Zeiss Lenspire site has PDFs from engineers that are great resources for design. If you know a photo was an ultrawide for instance you probably guess it is more recent since those weren't common in the past for example. At some point you'll want to learn about MTF and the articles on Lensrental are good for that. Roger Clark also had a good website on optics. Canon had a lens brochure that was informative. Brandon Dube (sp?) is an optical engineer who comments on Lensrentals and some other photo sites so if you find his profile on Disqus you could probably engage with him.

>>4477601When I was in college, the head of our photo dept who was only in his late 30s could look at a printed photo and reliably critique your camera settings, lighting scheme, and printer in a single glance. It was pretty amazing until I realized just how many images he'd been looking at for how many years. Did it in the Marines before he was a professor and QC'd hundreds of thousands of images for them as well.Occasionally a student would have some print shop run prints (still on a nice commercial printer, but not a fine art giclee printer) to make a deadline and he'd just take one look at it, tilt his head, see the colors at the borders, and you knew you were fucked, getting a 0 on that one. No one ever got anything past that guy. And he got that skill level in just over a decade. So, it's possibru OP
Got this Osmo for a decent price, is it good for vlogging?
>>4477692You bought it, literally just try it. No one knows your quality requirements or conditions but I would say yes. Gimbal stabilized footage is much better to watch than the clowns who try to use their dSLR type cameras, even ones with S-tier stabilization like Panasonic and Olympus, for vlogging. But if you are shooting in available light in dark conditions it is not going to look good.
You couldn't have gotten a worse camera.
at what age and how did you find that you were into photography/videography?
>>4476808when i was like 15 i got a slr and some film n it was fun :p
35 because "midlife crisis", just wanted to enjoy life more and trying new things. It was either a camera or a motorcycle, went with the former + home gym
>It was either a camera or a motorcycleGet both, it's a killer combo. Ride out to random places for a day and get some pics while you're at it. That's what I do when I'm fed up with the shitheels that infest city-life.
got on of those my first (35mm) cameras when i was a kid and got a dslr when i was 16 or so, stopped shooting digital now, film is where its at
>>4476808Around 22... and then my life went to shit and I lost all interest, and only took it back up again when I was 35.
