/p/, I long for the 2000s. I miss the hangouts where someone always had a digital camera and was snapping away. I miss that sweet overexposed, sharpened, sometimes saturated look that naturally came from a digicam.

Please post candid photos from the 2000s like picrel. The more unique the better.

If you need help, go to Google Images and search (month) (year) and the word "flickr"

Don't under estimate GTA fans, these are the same lunatics that were charting the stars to try and figure out when the trailer would drop. All it needs it some special edition box with some physical garbage in it and they'll line up beyond an entire city block.

Riots happen at night sometimes, you should prioritize low light performance. It's not like you can just let auto-iso crank it up to 12,800 on something like that, the pictures will look like they're made of colored sand. And try not to get beat up and robbed, because you're an easy target.

Has anyone attempted to use a generic 12v battery to power a nikon D700 through the grip.
I have a spare 12v lithium battery from a power drill that the brushed motor broke.

The grip can hold up to 8 x AA batteries. AA batteries can have a voltage of 1.5 volts, so 8 * 1.5 = 12v.

In theory it should work.

But I'm afraid to test and destroy the camera.

So, I'm asking if anyone has tried this before.
>>
>>4514800
yes and no. If your power supply is strong enough, just match the voltage. AA batteries are rated between 1.2V and 1.65V so anything between 10v and 13V will work. 12V is just the nominal voltage. No worries anon. Just make sure your external power supply can provide enough amps otherwise the voltage will drop and if the device isn't protected (it is) it'll turn off in the middle of doing something important and have problems or just die. For your Nikkon the max amps is about 2A (super low) so basically any lithium battery will work, but if you want to double check, just read the rated continuous discharge of your battery (the C) to know how many amps it can deliver (it's different from the battery capacity with is given in mAh).
>t. Electrical engineer
>>
>>4514841
just two notes :
1) make sure the polarity is correct
2) lithium batteries themselves are rated at a range , I doubt your battery has a regulator inside that forces the output to be 12v. But anyway the range is similar to AA batteries so no pressure
>>
>>4514800
Your "12v" pack is actually 10.8v; provided the grip can work with Ni-Cad/Ni-MH batteries, which would only generate 9.6v, it should be fine.

Be sure to check the polarity, as the one Anon said.

Thinking about doing that way myself. Before buying gear have some questions. What are the pros and cons? Any ideas or suggestions?
>>
>>4514810
Using a shitty camera you own to instill inspiration through limitations is based.

Purposefully buying a shitty camera someone else used to create limitations is turbo retarded.

Let me guess, you already own a camera. Use it.

8x10 drum test was a success. Did 4 sheets at once today with no hitches aside from being stupid and trying to pull the sheets out of a dry tube and scratching them.
Fomashit is actually pretty nice in sheet film size. This was taken with one of my vintage pictorialist lenses. Love the rendering of this lens so much.

He's not very talented, I don't understand how he's managed to get this far. Most of his pictures are just basic point and shoot, he'll then slap a black and white filter over some of them for reasons I don't understand. I love that his presets are labelled TOP SECRET in his videos so you can't steal his dogshit settings. Also the audacity to charge $120 for 58 presets is hilarious

starting a new one since the last one is reaching limit

I recently bought myself a new softbox, the exact one in pic, and it works surprisingly well. The issue is that it won't stay open all the way, so I need something to prop it open. I've found that using a credit card and ID card work pretty well, but I don't plan on using that for obvious reasons. Anyone have any suggestions to help a retard like me, something light and small?

Do you ever gift gear to newbies or friends or family who want to get into photography? I sent a 50mm Canon EF lens to a friend because he likes photography and photo editing, but he’s got a shit zoom kit lens. It’s really soul to have a bunch of gear laying around so you can give it to someone else.

All video related questions and discussion is intended for this thread. Here we discuss techniques, gear and anything else related to capturing video footage. Please don't pretend to be an expert if you don't know what you're talking about. Kindly leave your ego at the door.
Posting short films/scripts or other work you've done is encouraged.
We tend to use and recommend DSLRs/mirrorless cameras because they provide phenomenal picture quality for their price, have large sensors (ie the same size used in high-end cinema cameras, and larger) and have interchangeable lenses.
In contrast, consumer camcorders often have much smaller sensors and a fixed lens.
