With the AI boom, it doesn't matter if your camera is good or bad, you can just ask the AI to transform your flat iphone photo into something much better.With a Light Field Array camera, you can take photos that AI can't replicate.People will need new screens too, screens with 3d depth.
>>4497754>Light Field Arrayyes, i also remember the lytro meme threads
>>4497756feds
If scientists and engineers wield the science that light is an electromagnetic field, anything is possible. I told you all the science a year ago, yet you found me full of shit.
>>4505485>>4497754But why is that good? Why do you need the ability to adjust focus after the shot is taken? How will this make your photos better?
anon my agfa compact has curvy film plane not bad for hp4 or trix cheap trick
Why does it happen anyway? I feel like this is something which adobe could work on giving us a tool for in Photoshop. Something which cancels out edge glow but also can be adjusted by depth etc.(I know edge glow can be removed with a new layer and clone stamped with Darken mode on)
>>4501841Tiny sensors, shit optics, and a lot of slop post processing?
>>4501844if your camera settings are ideal you won't have to use much sharpening, people get artifacts from turd polishing with the cope slider trying to undo the fact that they missed focus again
>>4501845Yes yes and yes, but also a bayer filter.
>>4501417https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unsharp_maskingThis is 100% software created.You can't remove this or fix it. You can't undo the harm this shit does to your image. If you shoot RAW and don't let software destroy your images in the first place you won't have to put up with this shit.If you want quality you need to stop trying to fake sharpness or image clarity and start using a high res sensor and appropriate lens. Being a crop faggot or Adobe user is perpetual inadequacy. Digital zoom is not good and any "enhancements" you apply to images will always be doing something nasty.>>4501805Bayer has issues.Higher resolution solves a fair bit of them.We're not even close to being there yet.>>4501866Not only bayer but quad bayer and nona bayer which are worse. Instead of subsampling color in a 2x2 grid they subsample in a 4x4 or 6x6 grid.Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.
>>4501417Reducing the magnification might help.
Let's do this right and be creative with it.Theme: TransportationAll submissions must feature transportation, whether it's traditional like a car or more abstract like an elevator, interpret the meaning of transportation however you wish.Competition photos must've been taken from the start of this month and submitted by the end of next month (we're currently mid month so a longer timeframe is needed). You are welcome to post old photos but just mention in your post that they are old.Get as creative as you want and have fun.

>>4506655What lense and camera?
>>4506655That was a Canon T8i with a Canon 70-300mm lens.
pentax k3 + pentax fa 50mm f1.4 1/400s f5.6 iso 200 i liked this pic but im sure i'll take something better in the next week since im going on a trip
Rollei 35B with it's 40mm triotar lens, I shot some fujifilm 400 iso film in there, forgot the settings.Was a bit of an unexpected thing, the car just popped up on the street and was left there for a minute, I had only my Rollei 35B on hand, not even my phone so I just snapped it and trusted the selenium meter for the exposure. Was happy it was actually decently in focus too.
Hello. I am looking to purchase a suitable camera to shoot movies. I've used the Sony FX3 and FX6, but that was a few years ago. I don't know if things have bettered or worsened price-wise. Any help is appreciated.
>>4506861Sony is nice if you want to film a live adaptation of the shrek movie apparently
Decisive EditionPlease post film photos, talk about film photography, film gear like cameras, film stocks, news, and tips/tricks in this thread.Also talk about darkroom practices, enlargers, photo paper, techniques like dodging/burning, tools, and equipment related to enlarging, developing, and printing.Thread Question: What is the oldest camera or lens that you shot with? Would you use it on a daily basis?Previous thread: >>4500379
>>4507347Since none of you fuckers would do it.
>>4507348What took you so long?
>>4507349Oh, I've never baked /fgt/ before. I just happened to check in on this thread for the first time in a few days and saw everyone complaining about no new thread but not actually just doing it themselves.
>>4507351I already shared all my recent film photos in rpt and I'm dling portraits, so I couldn't have done it. Only complain.
>>4507351I would have but I encountered the issue described here >>4507331 still don't know how to get the captcha to appear to make a new thread because I'm a brainlet I guess (probably some adblock setting)
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?
>>4506355Based. Just a shame how dead these threads are now.
>>4506646I'm afraid that simply no new people make social accounts to pos them. It's been a year or something since I made my IG and didn't post anything here, have 13 people following and no idea what to do with it. Sure, summer is getting close and with it new anime cons and new cosplay shots but I simply have no idea or pressure to post on IG when I have my own private site with galleries here and much higher degree of control over content.But I find it sad that less and less people check the site, preferring to stay on social medias, mainly IG. Sign of modern times.
>>4506684Worse still is that the algorithm on IG is dead. Something strange has happened in the last few years where people don't find your stuff through tags or anything anymore, whereas before you could just add a tag like "minimalism" and get a few dozen likes within an hour.
>>4499999>>4500003>>4500007>>4500006>>4500010potential flickrchads wwa I'm also thinking of making one. The social media aspect is unimportant to me and I don't feel like fucking with a website. I just want my stuff out there, to be seen or not I don't care. It seems I'm not alone that there's a gap in what Insta offers and that Flickr covers a lot of that gap. Glad I'm not alone in some of this interest.
>>4506800I'm strongly considering one but idk how big the Flickr userbase is or what it really has to offer over instagram.
I just got the canon c70
How is it so far? Any test footage?
>>4506394Congratulations.Do you plan on turning it on and doing stuff with it or did you buy it as room decor?
>>4506394c70 has a nice wide top surface to collect dust
>>4506394Hyper blobmera.
It's ugly
i genuinely think portraits without bokeh look nicer. they just feel more soulful. is there a point to buying a camera instead of using your smartphone if you're gonna shoot at f8 anyway?
>>4506421so i fap to this of model called lilmochidoll and she uses a camera sometimes instead of a phone and i think the phone pictures and videos are actually hotter. like she looks more pretty in the phone stuff
>>4506421cameras are better than phones at high dof too but most gearfags aren't talented enough to make use of it
>>4506503people jerk off to cartoon dogs with neon blue fur and anime “people” that look like gray aliens wearing wigs. that is not the measure of quality you think it is. its literally the opposite. did you know your frontal lobes partially turn off when you’re masturbating?
>>4506643i dont think i have cum to her photos. i just do duplicates removal and organization and so i look at photos and videos a lot
Are rangefinders just point-and-shoot snapshitters with slightly more adjustability? I'm entertaining the idea of a smaller film camera but looking at pics taken by them and what they offer they seem like a glorified p&s. Am I missing something here?
i've been on rfs as my main manual focus cameras for around two years, and now i'm bad at focusing without an rf patch...>>4491816the main benefit of rangefinders for me is compactness. any given rf kit generally is smaller than its slr counterparts. this is one reason they are popular with street photographers. compact is nice when walking around with camera at hand for hours >>4499473what makes you say that? if i had a leica, i'd shoot it at a protest
I cant stop buying shitty ltm rangefinders. Ive spent enough for a great leika+lens combo in cheap soviet and japanese aluminum please help
>>4503156I have an M6 I bought after falling in love with my Canon P. It's better, it's without a doubt better, but it might not be as better by as much as you fear.
I just adjusted the horizontal calibration on my M10, no big deal but I'm basically a certified camera technician now. Ask me anything
>>4492086kino, thoughbeit
I like having the extra possible color spaces to work with when I want
>>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.
I recently found this pic on a USB stick and the exif said it was from 12 years ago. It had never been processed and was just a red rectangle. I was on top of some mountain because there's a recording studio there. It was late afternoon, in Oct and a deep blue sky. What surprised me about this is if you look to the left of the pole sticking up, you can clearly see the Big Dipper in broad daylight.
Hello /p/I saved a RX100 M7 from the bin after customer returned it without it's box and accessories.I know it’s not a pro camera with fancy lenses and such, but is it good? Photography interests me but I never mustered the motivation to buy a nice setup. Do you have any recommendations on what to do / not do?
>>4506363Who the fuck is shooting models and can't afford something better than a compact?
>>4506396lego models
>>4506396It's quite expensive for a compact, probably 'cause of the Zeiss
>>4505216It seems pretty cool, 200 mm in a pocket camera. You should probably never use it anywhere where you can use a bigger camera
>>4505294what a dummy post
I have never created a piece of art that I like. I never came back to anything I did months later and thought to myself "hey, this is neat".I can't use my hands to create shit. I can draw geometric shapes. I have nice handwriting. I can play open chords and bar chords on guitar. But that's where my physical skill set ends.I picked up a camera because my hands are no good. Only to realize that it's probably not my hands, it's my brain. I have little to no visual imagination. I can memorize rules that make photos look more pleasing, but I can not get beyond that in terms of intent with my photos.Over the last ten years, I resigned to the realization that I can't create anything because I have nothing to say. I have no personality. I have no opinions. I have no stories. Just things I point my camera at.
>>4502708What's the meaning of the 758168975417157419835516949614403064135930762886997535767th proton in Sun?
>>4499207stop being a baby about ur photos. ur just scared ppl r gonna be mean to u
>>4495973There are YT channels with simple tips and tricks
>>4506365for examplehttps://www.youtube.com/@MatteoMazzaNotesalso I'd like to know more channels like this
>>4495973do something focused like taking photos of cars or birds or something
>ACK!!!this kills the camera snob
>>4506456You mean every canon ILC>cannot POS R
photography was cooler when it was a guy with a box with a hole in it and a stopwatch and he was like "close enough"
>>4506467this, if you embrace the "it's good enough" mentality all of your gas syndrome will fade away.
>>4506455>Do you really believe an rx100 or g7x has less noisy pics than a pen f in normal use? Its like that retard that said an rx100 had the same IQ as a canon 7d. Totally stupid.You really like to argue against facts when the evidence is right in front of your eyes in the form of a graph. Perhaps it's because you don't know how to read the graph, and neither does OP if he's trying to imply the phone is best, because higher is better and so the Pen F is best.
>>4506466Every single manufacturer bakes their "RAWs" in some way, as dynamic range become the Holy Grail and all other aspects of image quality were thrown to trash.
Now when AI can make pic rel, retouching as a profession is dead, isn't it? If AI can make a photo from scratch, sure it can remove wrinkles and shit.What do I do for a living?
>>4506107"retouching"?I might be slightly retarded, are you trying to say "editing in post"? The best photos in the world are never straight out of the camera, friend.
>>4506349I'm new to editing so I love seeing stuff like this>>4506307>>4506308that's horrific wtf
>>4506349Dishonest photography.
>>4506353>nooo you cant make your photo look like it was taken with a better camera!Foolframers btfo by noise reduction and the saturation slider
>>4506349retouching - is when you make portraits more appealing by adjusting skin tone and removing wrinkles, acne, signs of aging, hair, moles, etcediting in post - everything else like white point, contrast and saturation
Post photos you have taken overseas… I want to save up to go to Bamberg and Bavaria, but I’m in Australia which is probably the most expensive place to travel into Europe. But I want to get inspired while I save my money. Any European anons who have travelled across Europe for cheap?
>>4505950>Travel across Europe for cheapThe easy answer would be to say go to Eastern Europe/Balkans and don't go to big tourist cities (Rome, London, Amsterdam, Paris, Berlin being the worst offenders)Flights between places are usually inexpensive, hotels are not. This gets worse the more touristy the city. For example my hotel in Stockholm cost 2/3rds what a worse room in Rome would have cost. Despite Italy having a lower cost of living. In Eastern Europe/Balkans this drops even more and typically you can see similar things to what you would in the West. For example Croatia has lots of Roman ruins (much like Italy), Poland has a lot of Hanseatic and Dutch influenced architecture and so on. I haven't done the maths on it but it genuinely might be cheaper to stay in Bratislava then get the train to Vienna for a day than to stay in Vienna.Also going to more obscure places probably helps reduce the habit of just taking the same tourist photo as everyone else. But maybe if you're coming from Australia you do fancy seeing the Eiffel tower, Vatican etc rather than the budget version lol.This is more a /trv/ thread but who cares the board is dead anyway.
>>4506288>Bratislava mentionedBased. When I hit Europoor (soon) I'm gonna hit Latvia and go south through to Poland. Probably skip Belarus for obvious reasons and take a detour into Sweden. Germany/Austria would be nice to see but I get the impression they're full of mussies. Being white in Poland/Lithuania seems mandatory.
>>4506292I bet Helsinki -> Tallinn -> Riga -> Gdansk would be a hell of a road trip.Poland has a surprisingly large number of Asian/Middle Eastern tourists and Uni students if you are around those areas. It's not London tier by any stretch but you'd be surprised.I haven't been to Germany (Berlin) since 2015 so can't comment on that particularly, I remember it largely being a grimy shithole but Potsdam was nice and clean.>AustriaActually I mentioned Vienna because I went last year, I had no issues, I saw local crackheads outside Wien HBF but they were mostly white. In an ironic way the crime/poverty was pretty equally distributed.Not to be too libtarded but the whole "full of mussies" thing is a bit of a meme, the only two non-white people I interacted with was a Kurdish looking guy who swapped seats with me on the tram and an Asian/Black mixed woman who was getting harassed by a crackhead. A lot of minority violence imo is hidden in suburbs where visitors simply don't go, so all you see are phone snatchings and pickpockets (also those fucking tourist scam shops on Oxford street).tl;dr don't let fear of third world migrants stop you going places, there absolutely are issues but it's confined mostly outside of where you would go as a tourist.
>>4505950I have a few trips to Paris, Barcelona, and Rome from several years agoI'll see if I can find the right hard drive and maybe go back through and re-edit them
