A thread for all such varmints, critters and such-like as ye may find crawlin' on they bellies round about these parts. Furry or skinny it makes no difference at all to me. I pray to the Lawd we may reach image bump limit in due time. AMEN! Let's ride, boys.

>>4433667>>4433668Riots 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.

>>4513163Someone got paid for this crap. >>4513178Is Nikon Z in the room with you right now?
>>4513178As it turns out, yes. It was shot on a Z8. Nikon color science and Z lens rendering are really fucking awful.
How to fix cricketing in the audio on s5mkii?I use rode shotgun mic and record on sd (if that matters) and there is a weird high pitched cricketing/pulsating noise/buzz. While video is goated, the audio issue ruined (made audio annoying to work with) in 2 of my films :/
>>4515914Its really only sony that has any semblance of reliabilityAs long as it came out after the a7iii and a7riiiAnd you don’t use the shutter as a dusr cover
>>4514255>and fuji have better autofocus than panasonic.he keeps saying this but it's such an obvious lie to anyone who has used both Fuji and Lumix.
>>4515925>i couldnt afford an x-e5: the post
>>4515942Nobody wants x-e5 bro
My fx3 also had thid problem, but the cable clamps fixe it
using darktable since i switched to linux and needed to edit photos. had fun with these.
I think you messed up this pictures dont have any color!
Seems like pretending to be so sick that your eyeballs barely see color, koodos for effort
Love these picrures. I also use DT.
>>4517849what?
>>4517714Some of the pictures are very nice, and the effort for composition can be seen through and trough; while some others should have been curated out and kept for yourself… We get it! But you could also break from the B&W and gain from using color when it appears to be more relevant. Half of these don't work with your preset and adjusting the curves and contrast appropriately would still create inconsistency between your images and style anyway. Do justice to your pictures, don't smear narcissism all over them. Stop larping, use color.
Since I'm unlikely to ever get any kind of Xpan camera, I thought it might be interesting to post some wide crops from two cheap digicams and a phone (Fuijfilm J20, JX500 and Nokia Lumia 520) taken over the last few years. The JX500 has a scratched lens but nice colours and I think it does OK.Some of these I've posted before, some I haven't.
>>4514643Thanks.The whole thread is just my experiments in getting an XPan look from old, broke (and often cheap) digicams and phones. The Nokia Lumia 930 I'm now concentrating on has a Zeiss lens and can give DNG (Raw) files. Someone who understands editing could get a lot from these files, but even with my limited skills, I can get them looking better than their standard jpegs.I've also printed some of these photos and they look OK. I'm not someone who cares that much about the technical quality of photos (I sort of share the philosophies of Daidō Moriyama and Dmitry Markov and a number of the early pictorialists).Digicams had their moment. I wonder if cheap camera phones are next? Still plenty of good deals out there for early Android phones (and some iPhones).
>>4515243I particularly like the last of the sequence.

I've been shooting macro with a Sony a6000 for a while now, and landscape only recently, but I was recently given a Rebel T6 with similar macro and zoom lenses as my Sony. Not sure which is better, if there's really any comparison since they're both entry-level cameras. Sample pics are from the Sony, had to resize to fit 5mb limit. The only settings I mess with in-camera is ISO, aperture, and shutter speed, the rest I do in Photoshop. Haven't experimented with white balance or in-camera color grading. Would a Rebel T6 be any better?
Who the fuck likes this focal length? What is its purpose?
>>4462881very nice tits and feet ; I nutted to this
>>4462866>Who the fuck likes this focal length? What is its purpose?Great for construction and indoor photography, and sky/astrophotography.
idk mane
>>4462866im too poor to afford more lenses
>it now cost $20 to develop film only with no prints or scansAHHHHHHHHH
>>4512336Well, snappy snaps was a new company back then
>>4512336The one I go to always has a rotating cast of young women and enbies that are presumably also doing a film or photography program at the community college across the street.
>>4411869It costs less than $3 per roll to develop color (c-41) at home. If you are so bothered about lab prices and have the time, get a dev kit and do it at home.
>>4517513Dont forget the $700 DSLR scanning rig and labor value of hours spent dealing with dust
>>4512407So goddamn lucky it's unreal. All the photography places in my city are boomers or younger guys that are just regular retail workers and don't really give a shit about photography.
Is there a legitimate replacement for Lightroom classic? I hate adobe and I want to stop renting it, but goddamn it makes editing so fresh and so good. I freely admit I am a retard and I don’t want to spend several hours investigating different softwares. I want to know what you guys use and / or if anyone who actually edits large amounts of photos uses anything other than photoshop and Lightroom

I use pirated LR on my tablet, great for trips.On my desktop I use darktable but its 5 million menus scares me.OP just pirate LR, if you're used to it it's not really worth learning another program.
>>4517336The 5 million menus are not the problem. It is 5 millions menus but still don't have that one basic setting you want to do is the problem.
>>4517377like?
>>4517378Like with a blown out sky I want to bring back some contrast but with the new workflow and "Darktable ideals" you don't exactly have contrast, exposure, shadows and highlights anymore because all of this is tied into AgX because it is more "scientifical" and gives you back 1% more color that you would never notice in printing but the farts smell lovely now. All I want is set a gradient mask and tie some highlights and contrast setting to it. You can't. You have the outdated shadows and highlights module from 10 years ago that is absolute ass and leave horrible masking lines for some reason.
There are like millions of setttings, how do I know which one is the best in my particular case?I've tried to watch some tutorials on Youtube, but couldn't recreate that super fancy feeling you're getting from fashion magazines. For example pic rel is my slop, is it possible to fix it somehow to make it look decent for Instagramm at least?
Bump for engagement, come try editing
Why is it so fun to BTFO photos sometimes?
Happy 4th, anons.
>>4500836The way you took photo of the nissan is a snapshot from afar (bus, train or building). If it was an upcoming car to be released which most of the public hasn't seen yet, then you have good content to post. But if you want a 'clean' photo, be where the car is and shoot from good angles. This one has an awkward one, framing is off, wires blocking part of the subject, car shadow below back is cut and lacks negative space at the bottom, bus and shadow on right side mess up the background.
I have way better gear but this little fucker has become a great companion for vlogging, even with all the drawbacksDo you have a favorite flawed piece of gear?
>>4493840And now GoPro has their own version.
>>4501594Like a phone?
why dont you guys post photos you took with them?

>>4474747From what I can recall this thing was basically a retarded A6000. Has all of the hardware except displays and controls.
Why has the world abandoned photo shoots of good looking women?99% of anything I see now is selfies and if its a photoshoot its just to sell clothing or some super generic looking agency testshoot. 10 years ago or whatever the world was full of every good looking girl doing multiple photoshoots just for content. What happened?
>>4486015>for some weird reasonDo you want to know what it is?
low hanging fruit. I always laugh when I click a "photographer's" page and it's just pictures of attractive women.
>>4515454why? are you a zoomer incel/femcel?
>>4502542Go on instagram and find a model. Message her and ask her what her rates are.Once you have a portfolio it is much easier to find TFP models.
>>4481290Most of them aren't.You have a handful who make ridiculous money (literally - the top 10 earners account for over a quarter of all onlyfans revenue), and the rest who are making basically fuck all.

Well, to start, I take the photos with a Sony Cybershot from almost 15 years ago. The maximum size it supports is 10MP, and although I can adjust the ISO and shutter speed, I still can't properly handle the aperture (or I can't find it). So be honest with me, how terrible am I? Besides taking a lot of photos in the dark.
>>4510484>What is missing from my shots?Soul because chilangos don't have any
>>4510484Look at the overall shapes, and the subject should be most prominent or draw the eye, squint your eyes and see the shapes, what stands out.You totally fucked the first photo, is it a troll? You should have had the statue with a sky background but you've made it look like a dalek.
>>4510484>>4510486> What is missing from my photos?Photography (especially when not staged) is the art of curating what you want to appear in an image. You are doing this backwards. Ask yourself: what was the ideal image I wanted, and what is getting in the way?> I have a digishitMost people will probably tell you a good photographer can make great pictures on any camera and they are right. However, I don't think anyone can become a good photographer with any camera. First reason is, if you don't have full manual control over your camera, you won't learn the technique necessary to achieve your vision. Second is, to become a good photographer, you must enjoy the act of taking photos regardless of the result, which is very difficult on a digishit. Third reason is, nobody including yourself will take you seriously with your digishit, and that's important because any good art need someone with enough confidence to create their vision and put it out there. > Am I a talented photographer?The honest answer is, I don't know, but realistically no you're a clueless amateur. Not because your photos suck, but because you posted only 2. Exceptional masterpieces aside, photography works in series, like poem do. Each image work to strengthen a general vision you want to communicate. By posting those 2 photos, you show me that you have not put a tenth of the effort needed to communicate something interesting through your art. You must do better. Make a series of at least 10 photos that communicate a concept or vibe you can explain in 1 sentence. Then we can see if you're good at photography; for now you're not even fully committing to the medium yet, just making the least possible effort using it.
They're fine. They're really good.
>>4510484no one cares about photography anymore so u need a subject people care about like a cool car, a sexy woman, brands etc
