28mm filters out the bokehfags and gearfags, if you need 100mm f0.95 to make good pictures you suck

you forgot to mention that you are a fat retard like you always do

>>4462866
Fat people like it because it makes them look skinnier

>>4462881
This would be really compelling if the person saying it had a shred of evidence that they'd ever taken a good photo at any focal length, let alone 28mm. Go be fat somewhere else.

Tag me properly you retarded fatass. No one is using ad-hominem. You presented a photo, it fucking sucks. Everyone can see it fucking sucks. I tell you it fucking sucks, and that the rest of your photos fucking suck. I also tell you that your argument would be more compelling if you presented relevant information, and that there is no evidence that you have relevant information (good photos). Fucking think for once, you post like Brian Griffin. Everything goes over your head and you strut around like a winner. It's small wonder that recent poll put you as the most hated person here.

I honestly haven't used it much and I'm having a hard time adjusting to it for some reason. I actually find it easier to go wider, and I don't even do that very often. Picrel is the "best" 28mm shot I've taken lately.

>>4462881

It is better than 35mm that is never enough wide or tight. At least 28mm is always wide enough to pack everything in to frame. 35mm and 50mm is for photographers than can not take a good picture so they rely on the dof to save them.

Utter garbage, the Winogrand length and phonefag length. Snapshittery is all it's good for. It's one of the many reasons Leica Q pix sux so much. K3k!
The underwater photo is good because being underwater actually changes the effective focal length by a 4:3 factor. A 28 underwater behaves like a 37 outside, roughly 35. In other words, a 28 is what you need to be uncle Terry in the depths.

What are you saying, it’s too wide or too tight, it seems like a very natural looking frame to see

28 is just right. 24 gets distorted, 35 is just meh. Perfect wide-angle.

Why not just accept the obvious truth that literally no one likes you. No need to do mental gymnastics about how "the site got hacked by your stalkers" when the explanation is obvious. People who try to steer the discussion of an anonymous photography forum to be about themselves, their life, and how special they are, are generally socially stunted man-children. People just don't wanna hear from you.

>$3.50 for 6 high value (you)s
Was it worth it? The expenditures of the leica man are simply disgusting...

>>4463157
Helmut mostly shot longer lengths, 28mm is far from representative of his work. Moriyama does indeed suck.
I reject your gearfag claim, it's the AoV/perspective and even if your gear was brushes and paint it would be the same.

>>4463157
In photography, using the correct gear for the photo does in fact determine if a photo is good or bad.

You shot a 35mm portrait due to optical tricks. 28mm above ground is really tacky and overdone.

28mm is the 40mm of wide angle. it's a youtube consoomer cattle focal length. so boring and mediocre phone makers decided to use it as the standard fov for their consoomer cattle phones.
if you shoot 28mm you lack any soul. you're consoomer cattle. you don't deserve the gift of life. throw yourself under a freight train. disgusting cattle.

>>4462881
imagine needing a focal length to not be a sorry bokeh addicted faggot. yeah budde, we get it, you're not fucking kids because you moved into a retirment home. /golfclap for your iron will lol

>>4462927
only 28mm nikon makes is a plastic trash tier consoomer lens for those Zf cattle. nikon knows that 28mm is a trash focal length. just like 40mm. that's why they make only joke lenses in that format. they're laughing in japan about all the faggots who unironically buy those lenses. it's a phone focal length for teenage girls sending dickpics to niggers

using the right tool for the job without preconceptions of what a "good" or "bad" focal length is makes me the same as people who refuse to train their bred-to-be-violent dogs? fuck me for wanting to take a group photo in a small space I guess.

I like it fine on a crop body.

>>4469236
>there's no good or bad breeds just bad owners
Yes, it makes you the same as them. Also 28mm isn't wide enough nor tight enough to make anything worthwhile.

>>4469229
stop fucking dogs

>>4469239
What makes something worthwhile in your mind? If I want to take a close-ish corner shot of my house 28mm is just the right focal length. If I want to get multiple people in frame while being relatively close to them it's a fine focal length. If I'm taking a landscape shot it's a length I might consider. What is the obsession with 28mm being bad and likening it to poor pet ownership?

for me it's 1mm (not a typo)

That's just typical 4chan retardation. You have to use the /p/ approved focal lengths and camera brands, or else you have no ability to take good photos whatsoever and people will keep debating you as if their life depends on it.

>>4469236
28mm is never the right tool

but 28 was the correct FL for that image because I knew those optical tricks would come into play, so by your logic, I did use the correct gear to make that photo.

calm down your autism and go touch grass

I haven't used my 28mm prime very often. Every time I try it again, I end up preferring something much wider or narrower. However, when I adapt the lens to my M43 video camera, my focal reducer's crop factor of 1.28 makes the FOV closer to 35mm.

>>4462866
I shoot my 20mm more than any other lens. On paid jobs too. Get fucked telefag.

Nobody likes 28mm. Theres a reason why 35mm is the most popular, then 24mm. 28mm is the wide angle no mans land.

I guarantee it's worse (less interesting) than what 24mm would give you AND what 50mm would give you.

Based photography: A Technical Guide
By A. Non

Alright sniggers, you need to buy nothing but prime lenses because zooms suck the sovl out of your penis.
You must shoot these things with these lenses:
>Portraits at 16mm
>Building corners at 400mm
>Birds at 50mm
>Landscapes at 1200mm
Yes. You must be a 1200mm lens otherwise you are in fact NOT based and you cannot use that to shoot birds. That's what the P320 is for.

>>4472252
What about rocks, leafs and clouds

>>4472255
>Rocks at 200mm (preferably f/2 so nothing is in focus)
>Leaves are for the classic 24mm so you can get more leaves per pixel
>Clouds deserve 135mm so you can prevent the faces in them from having werid distortion. Rock Kockwell taught us faces look more natural like this.

I own 24, 28, and 35 ... in multiple formats (35mm and 6x7 equivalent). 28mm is the most useful by far. Wider than 35 while still not too exagerated so it's still "general purpose".

24mm is entirely different, 24 is where it starts to really look artificially wide. Which is a plus if that's what you want. But for "general purpose", the widest is 28mm

Pic related, made with a 55/3.5 Pentax 6x7, equivalent to 28/1.7 in full frame terms.
