Color doesn't matter. Today when you can adjust colors just by pressing a button there's nothing more fake than a color. You should only shot B&W. Black and White photography is real and pure. Shape, shadow and light - this is what makes your photography look special, not some bright oversaturation. If your picture looks good without colors then your picture is worthy
wrong, I like colored lights at night and colored objects shot with flash.But otherwise black and white is pretty cool too.

I want to buy the GRIVm to replace my Nikon Z. Because there are those phases where I really can't figure out a good color setting. Especially at weird lights in nature. There is always something off. The greens, etc. And then I still export and I'm unhappy everytime I see the image. With the Ricoh I could easily crank up the ISO and still get beautiful sharp photos. And no need to color correct anything. On the other hand color photos overshadow my lack of composition and slapping those vsco presets on them make them look neat too. AND i have a little kid and I'm afraid that someday I bite my ass for only having b&W pictures of him. And my wife gets angry everytime I send her an b&w photo.
b&w digital photos are the ugliest shit known to man. if you use a snapshit and open lightroom to make them black and white so they look artsy you are scum under my shoe.
>>4507214what if you use a monochrome sensor?
Bw shooters look like THAT!!!?
>>4507187nikon allows you to set a color profile for the jpegs, i've had mine outputting them in b&w for years. you can more or less built a lut and load it in
>>4507281Where can I find good presets for Nikon? Is this the only website https://nikonpc.com/Was it made by Nikon itself?
>>4507303don't know, it's been a long time since i dicked around with it and i don't use presetsyeah that webpage looks familiar, don't know who runs itcheck forums
>>4502479>controls contrast like a bossfuck your fake ass nigga and cracka photog!

Can someone explain to me the appeal of B&W photography? I'm really trying hard even shot a month of B&W only but I get bored of it so quick. I think color and color gradients add so much to photos making them much more alive, interesting and pleasing to look at. While B&W always have this depressing look to them, more far from reality. Just imagine being on a tropical island with amazing blue water and vivid plants and you lose all the color information.
>>4508463It prevents the photohtapher from going full ken rockwell
>>4508463If something adds to a photo, you should keep it in, if it doesn't, you should leave it out. Applies to color as well.There are plenty of scenes where colors don't meaningfully add to the photo, or even are a distraction.Sometimes you might have really beautiful colors and trick yourself into thinking a photo is good when it's really just a mediocre photo with good colors.Absence of color can shift more emphasis to other things like form, texture, contrast, etc.>Just imagine being on a tropical island with amazing blue water and vivid plants and you lose all the color information.Just imagine being a place with nothing but ugly and distracting colors around you.
>>4508463it's not hard if you like art
>>4508465Our savior also shoots b&w though, nearly all photo boomers have the adams influence
>>4508474his bw film work is not good at all, but its his best 4 sure
>>4508474I'd think it's nicer something more like this
>>4502479>You should only shot B&W.based and true
>>4507187unironically I think the GRIVm might be the best and only usable GR camera. because with black and white the joke of ricoh color science, the absolute failure that is rico's AWB and the retarded amount of grain with any ISO above 160 dont matter at all.I thought about getting the GRIVm myself too, but then I realized I can just set my iPhone to monochrome and get better results. so yeah
>>4508463you're just gay, but that's okjust keep enjoying colors
>>4508528Divorce status?
>>4508531I got a sailboat and left photography pretty much behind. It's liberating - just experiencing the moment and not being forced to take photos.
>>4508463Shoot for light contrast and it won't look boring.If you shoot boring flat subjects then it's going to look bad. Which is where colour can help by bringing attention to your subject.
