Who are the todays truly great modern/digital photographers? the ones likely to be remembered alongside legends like Ernst Haas etc?
>>4520650>Fuck palestineI see what the priority is.
>>4520653Any pro palestine break from israel involves refugees and gibs. Its far better to let bibi cook and then abandon him entirely.
>>4520656>and then abandon him entirelyYou say that as though it's a viable option.
>>4520504>Who shoots digital again?Ironically, several of the names you listed
>>4520504Impressive post, I know what you're doing. Masterful.

>>4517866For single birds, that is too short for sure. 300 is too short even on crop imo. The most popular lens I've seen on FB birding groups is some kind of 150-600mm and they mostly shoot at 600mm. But if you can find big birds that are used to humans or you stick a birdfeeder just outside, 80mm could work. The birding photographers I follow often use even longer focal lengths which is why I just watch their videos. I tried with a 200mm and it just wasn't nearly enough.
>>4517895damn, okay
>>4509680hawk tuah
>>4507781The body is round
>>4517866Entry level birding lenses are your standard 100-400mm, and they're normally pegged @400mm. More serious birders will buy super telephoto primes like 600mm f4 or even more crazy. You can't really have too much focal length with birding, but anything less than 400mm is normally just going to be a disappointment.You absolutely can bird with shorter lenses but prepare to buy a ghillie suit and to be camped in one spot for a few hours.
Pictures with potatoes in them give me a quarter chub edition.

How long can you let it sit after exposing but before developing? Online I see everything from "you should develop within a few days of exposure" to "you can leave it up till its expiry date no problem". I asked a local camera shop and they said 6-10 months before you start to see degradation depending on the film. Who's telling the truth? I don't remember ever worrying about this back when I was using disposable cameras for everything.
>>4520311Back in 2014 I bought a film that was expired in 2009, and i used it inbetween 2018 and 2023 because I left my camera at home as I started moving abroad. My home country is tropical, so this is a factor too, and I kept my camera in a bag in my cupboard. Got it developed and scanned by my local shop sometime on 2023, but their scan was always kinda shitty. I ended up buying a scanner sometime in 2025, though by that time i think the film has deteriorated even more and I stupidly kept it not so clean.I dont find that much difference inbetween the shots i took on 2018 and 2023, although as explained other parameters could be at play.Picrel is shot in 2018
>>4520365>I dont find that much difference inbetween the shots i took on 2018 and 2023Maybe worth mentioning degradation speed is logarithmic with time. I bought a roll of portra 400 in a shop that was not air conditioned during a 33°c+ heatwave and it was already too degraded for the result to be professional. But i'm sure it could have stayed in the shop for months and I would still have had a clear image, only fogged and color shifted.
>>4520365looks like the streets from eyes wide shut. shame it's so disheveled.
>>4520311I have a few rolls from 2003-2007, I'll let you know. There are photos of a hooker getting arrested on one of them, I'll post those.
>>4520311From what I've been told, it's temperature that matters the most. I had some film that had been exposed and then passed expiry by 3 years and it looked completely fine when I developed it, I didn't need to push it or any of that shit. So just keep it cool and it can last a good amount of time.I think the only thing that is affected no matter what is shadows after some amount of time, so you'll end up with lost details in really dark parts of the image. So maybe develop night photos ASAP in that case.
>Nocturnal photography (also referred to as night photography) refers to the practice of taking photographs outdoors between dusk and dawn, when natural light is minimal or nonexistent.>The low-light conditions night photographers work in require specialized techniques to achieve proper exposure, including long exposures—ranging from several seconds to days—higher ISO sensitivity, or artificial lighting.>The genre encompasses a wide range of subjects, including urban and rural landscapes, architecture, industrial sites, and astrophotography.Post your night photos!

nightfags, for what do you expose? I'm a newfag and best I came up with is point meter to the brightest thing like a lamp and overexpose by like 2 (my camera only shows scale to 2 and if you're over 2) so it's not blown, and surroundings are still dark cause I don't want a bright night photo
>>4513065Note: this is only a problem if you live in the Eastern Bloc, Detroit, downtown Nashville, New York, SoCal, Toronto, Vancouver, London, or Florida.If you live in a civilised part of the world, then yes you can use a tripod at your discretion.
hai!! ive never used 4chan so im kinda a little confused on how to make postsi thought this was a cool photograph that i had taken on a school camp and i want to show people of the public, i shot this with a panasonic lumix g7, criticism and thoughts would be nice !!
>>4519211>>4519231>>4519233>>4519234It's good for a beginner because I can see you are going for a specific tone in the lighting and colors and you are using subjects to anchor the scene. So you're doing the work to get better.Now for the pictures to get outside of the beginner realm you would need a better cohesive theme between the pictures, or something unique in the style or visual elements. You also need to work on your colors and contrasts. >>4519233is pretty bad in this regard, the colors are unnatural, the contrasts washed out and hazy, and the whites are blowing out.
>>4519211Based West Gippsland enjoyer (I assume that's where it is anyway). First photo is your best photo, but the others are pretty alright considering you don't know much about photography.

Okay it's been a while since we've had these so...Let's start by posting the guy I visualize when I see a streetfag here on /p/. I'll post his work below, he really encompasses the creepy streetfag vibe. He's not unlike the freaks immortalized in Dario Argento's and Brian De Palma's classic gialli. His work is the validation of Susan Sontag's perception of photography as a form of rape.His name is not unlike that of the psychos in the horror thriller canon. Smooth Leg Greg, not unlike Buffalo Bill, Dale Longlegs, or Leatherface.Am I wrong in my perception? Anyways, street photography thread.
>>4519987But he's not a tranny. In fact, /fa/ trannies like MWAHnon have expressed disgust at the fact that he's a "cis gay". He's a wannabe androgynous faggot.
>>4519938He's worse than a zoophile, even the French directors he lives so much say cinephilia is a disease and a perversion.
>>4520008I assume you meant "he likes so much" and no, other than Chris Marker I'm not a big fan of the French. I much prefer Italians.
>>4519977He literally posted photography though. CDS is getting out of hand, he posts and people lose their grip on reality.
This thread is now officially blessed by smooth legs Greg, as seen in the following post: >>>/fa/18748099
It is time.

Have a photato.Saw the fair ground was left unlocked at 3am so drove in, kek. Woke up some carnies so only had a few seconds to get some snapshits.
I'll start this off, just upgraded from my aging FF to a new APS-C and I feel much more at home. Does anyone else came back to the forbidden fruit?
>>4520694Source of the image btw. It's m43 of course, given that /p is made of refugees from DPreview m43 forum.https://www.dpreview.com/sample-galleries/3632672590/om-system-om-1-mark-ii-sample-gallery/3043540761/
>>4520657>No L-Mount pancakesNot true actually, I checked the website and Panasonic and Leica both make at least one pancake.
>>4520694Who told you that SOOC jpegs have identical resolving power to RAW files on any camera? Just blatantly untrue.
>>4520726A camera JPEG is produced from RAW data which is discarded if in JPEG only mode.On Pentax cameras you can press a button to save the last recorded RAW file from the buffer while in JPEG mode.Sharpness in the RAW data is the same in either process.

No exposure bracketing, OP?
>>4514799why?
>>4520492Nta, but he asked because your sky is exposed nicely and your foreground (60% of your image) is simply underexposed.Don't get me wrong, it's not *that* bad because dark things should look dark, but even a mild bracket of 1 stop would have made the foreground actually viewable.
Redwood EditionPreviously: >>4510615
>>4519336No problem, and by the way, the 12-60 is still a good and very versatile lens. Compact for hiking, reasonably sharp, you can have a lot of fun with it.
>>4520293I returned my 12-60 quick. Sharp? In a 4x6. Not otherwise. Not if cropped. The olympus 12-45 is actually sharp. I had a bad time with other lumix lenses.>20/1.7Noise banding. It has EMI issues. >45 macroCrashed the firmware, occasionally refused to focus>42.4/1.7Decentered NIB, noisy autofocusM43 is almost good but you HAVE TO only use olympus lenses and olympus cameras. Panasonic is a retarded sideshow. Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.
>>4520294My 12-60 (the PL) one is good. All the Panasonic lenses, even the Leica branded ones, have awful variance. Olympus is way more consistent and honestly the cameras were just better.
>>4520299I genuinely think micro four thirds only did poorly because half of it was panasonic. Olympus has so much more experience as a camera company, and it shows. Panasonic is a generic consumer electronics company that uses focus groups, engineers, and committees to design everything. M43 is not appreciably different than canon’s 1.6x
>>4520315I think you're right. m43 comes out in 2008 and it enjoyed some good advantages by being small and all the other mirrorless advantages. Sony comes out in 2009 with its NEX which was just as small and APS-C but the two were pretty competitive for a while but Panasonic got a lot of help from the popularity of the GH series. 2012 rolls around and Sony puts in phase detect and it wasn't until 2023 until Panasonic did the same. That's over a decade of people complaining, rightfully so, about the bad autofocus in Panasonic cameras compared to everyone else especially for video which is why people even cared about Panasonic in the first place. That's over a decade of negative m43 experience because Panasonic was too proud to dump DfD.The m43 alliance was also stupid. Both of them had weather sealed lenses but they weren't designed to be cross brand compatible. Both systems had optical stabilized lenses but they wouldn't work together with the built in systems; it was same brand only if you wanted full stabilization. Even plain lenses had issues like when you could get purple flare if you used certain Panasonic lenses on Olympus. Both companies abandoning the ultra compact body segment is a mistake. Panasonic refusing to update the 20/1.7 pancake to have good autofocus is a blunder. It's a sorry state when a lot of m43 people are hoping the chinese will pick up the slack.
>photography hero grows oldIt's not fair bros
>>4519133the average free-palestine poster doesnt even know about china’s habit of complete cultural/racial erasure and probably thinks china is a paradise that respects diversityRIP Tibet, Xinjiang, Southern Mongolia, DzungarWe hardly knew yeBut palestine is still around because it’s just an alternate name for Israel, and lots of different races can immigrate and live there as long as they aren’t violent antisemitic lunatics or prone to sheltering them.

Any cheaper hobbies to replace photography?Photography was a reason I'd blindly go walk into a nature reserve, I don't want to lose that without some form of alternative.

>>4513388>No other board ots has this retarded implicit need to provide a photo with any talking point you might submitFalse.
>>4517201One of the easy ways to spot bullshitters is just asking for simple specifics about something, and seeing how they are unable to answer direct questions
>>4508439Photography.Your problem isn't that photography is expensive, your problem is that you're gearfagging. Stop gearfagging and just take nice pictures with whatever you got.
>>4513819Practice makes perfect :)>>4513707Thanks for this anon, I've written down your main talking points for future reference. Renormalise negative criticism. It's okay to be upset at being sold a worse product for more money.
Redpill me on screen vs viewfinder debate. Personally I find screen to be way more comfortable. Viewfinder is a total pain in the ass.
OVF>>>>>>>>>everything else. All y'all are pussy ass electrobabby bitches
>>4497897I used to prefer VF. But when I started wearing prescription glasses, I can't be bothered removing it. I now just use the screen.
>>4497897I like using both at the same timeOVF is more enjoyable, but EVF is more functional
>>4497929Pressing the body of the camera against your face to use the viewfinder works to help stabilise the camera because it creates a third point of contact, which ironically is literally EXACTLY the same reason shouldering a stock helps stabilise the widdle army man's rifle, from a physics perspective.You are either baiting or retarded. If the latter, sorry you had to find out this way bro.
>>4519565>Bean bagOh noooooooo my $2000 McCockson Phloginator lens got a scratchy watchy!!!! :(((((Grow up, scratches and scuffs are what happens when you actually fucking use a tool and don't just let it collect dust, as long as it's not on an important part (the glass) who fucking cares. Yes you should take care of your tools but babying your shit is a waste of time. If the lens can't survive something so apocalyptic as being set against a fucking tree or a rock then it was a shitty lens unworthy of existence.>But it'll hurt the resale value when I get buyer's remorse and realise I'm a retard that paid way too much for something I never use and need to recoup my investment!!!GOOD. That is as it should be. Used gear costs less because we have no fucking clue how good it really is on the inside or how much longer it'll last, deal with it.
