>>4510763>>4510763/r/ is gone so might as well update italso old wiki link was archive.is, which is discouraged these days in favor of .today, which redirects to .is .md .whatever
>>4510764the wiki is a portal in time back to twelve years ago nevertheless. no mention of mirrorless cameras in the buying guide and a reference to "the cake is a lie..." I haven't heard that in TEN YEARSwhat's the point of directing newbs to such an outdated wiki? update it or scrub it.
>>4510761>Gear threads are discouraged but permitted.ROFLMAO
>>4510766>what's the point of directing newbs to such an outdated wiki?board culture or smth>update it or scrub ithow about making /p/ articles on /g/ wiki? Some topics kinda intersect between the two
>>4510768I take back what I said about scrubbing it. there's a lot of good info in there but it could use an update
>>4510764what happened to /r/ lol
>>4510771TAKE IT DOWN Act came into effect/r/ was just 95% deepfakes so the board was just a giant liability waiting for a lolsuit
>>4510767We should have a policy of hostility towards gearfags who are not wealthy enough to have gear worth admiring or chill enough to admit their used snoy is convenient junk. Like /gg/ on /mu/ - if you can’t afford a gibson, shut up. If your squier is so great, play it and show us. >inb4 you don’t.
>>4510773This. People will bring up gear no matter what. May as well make it based. >actually the fujifilm xe-…>Can’t afford a hasselblad? Lmfao>no no no the sony a7->Can’t afford a phaseone? Lmfao>excuse me but according to this chart the panas->I shoot 8x10 film and can not fathom caring.
>>4510776>trying to weasel your way out of being cringe for not being able to afford a hassy>a-actually my zenza bronica…You whimpering worm!

>>4510780photography, playing guitar, programming, pets, camping, and guns = the milennial sperg starter pack
>>4510774>>4510773Most of the gearfags on /p/ don't actually care about image quality. I've posted hard proof of 600MP+ of real resolution from 8x10 scans scanned on a freaking flatbed scanner, links to 1000MP 4x5 wetplates, shots taken with nearly 15k worth(not spent) of gear and crickets.The only thing that matters for most is AF performance, 1 million iso noise, charts, grams of weight, and inches of lens length. It's a constant argument between shills of things that don't really matter. All publicity is good publicity, so a constant shill argument about accessible options will sell the most cameras. There is no subjective assessment because aesthetic is impossible to argue for so all the gearfag shills simply recite charts and stats about their favorite camera. The scientists photographing charts are NOT the arbiters of aesthetic. Only a fool or dedicated snapshitter would ever think that.The great gearfag convergence will be when cellphone cameras are indistinguishable from MILCs and this is 100% inevitable for /p/. Whether it is from ai enhancement or alien sensor technology. Just give it a few years.Rant over. Thank you for reading my blog.
>>4510822tldrPost hassy or photos. Your janky poorfag rig gets no gigs. >my film is big!You scan it on a shatbed. Application for gearfaggotry denied. Come back when you have a phaseone on a copy stand kid.
>>45108265k lens, 2k 8x10 camera, 2.5k gitzo carbon tripod, 2k arca swiss cube tripod head, 2k speedotron 4800ws flash charger, 1k in 2400ws speedotron strobes, 400 for 3 c stands, 400 dollar hand painted back drop, 3.5k dog from one of the best GSD breeders in the country.I use a 500 pack of kodak azo paper I spent 800 dollars on to make contact prints with the most expensive, most toxic developer, amidol, that produces the best looking contact prints. I've already spent over 10k on enlargers(45vxl, and a leitz 35v focomat), an 11x14 RA4 capable print processor, and a permitting person for a bespoke darkroom that hasnt even gotten through permitting approval yet. Ill be spending almost 4k on a 10 foot sink made from 316 stainless steel before even considering hiring a contractor, plumber, electrician, and HVAC guy to build out my 10x14 darkroom space that will be capable of making 20x24 sized prints.After all that I feel generous enough to scan my negatives, downscale 500MB tif files to 4mb and share my work with you little cunts. Dear god I wish someone on this god forsaken website would get on my level. On average my egg pictures take over 5k in gear to photograph. :) I've been using a vintage brass barrel lens I picked up for 2k to take some soft focus egg shots as well, so call it 6k when you see one of those next time. Oh yeah... I have a leaf aptus 3 MFDB, which is the same company as phaseone, that I'm going to basically never use again becuase I spent 600 dollars on an adapter that lets me use a 700 dollar 645 filmback on my 2.5k sinar hy6. The hy6 is a better camera than the real, non chinese, hasselblads. I can list off the value of the 7 lenses I have for the system if you'd like. Just ask nicely.
>>4510826Forgot to ask what camera are you using? Lets see some pics too. From your previous posts I would bet you're one of those nophoto nocamera kinda anons. Right?
>>4510835this post is cringe
>>4510835Nice A7R photo mate!
>>4510835Decent snapshot. You clipped an ear. >i have a leaf aptus 3 and a sinar hy6>i have an ancient porsche boxster and a used 2005 bmwKek. Nothing worth braggin about son. Trichromatic minimum. You gearfags… no one cares what you spent unless you have something nice. Shut up and post photos instead of writing essays about how your rig is mid.
>>4510835If /p/ is /gg/ this post is bra/gg/ing about buying a gibson lp studio and 68 fender princeton reverb reissue to play autumn leaves. (Plebs wouldn’t get the joke)
>>4510882>ebonics
>>4510884White people invented "ebonics", ya ken?
>>4510884This photo looks like oversharpened AI. It’s also slightly rotated to the left and there’s too much foreground.
>>4510885"mid" is ebonicsIt's appropriated Weed slang from "mids" Cannabis>>4510886The picture isn't rotated, the parking lot is sloped
>>4510889Weed is the white man’s drug, hippie.
>>4510890It went from “mids” to “mid” when it became ebonicized
>>4510835>rattles off an itemized receipt>none of it even good, all third rate and out of date>unironically bragging about dated MFDBs that underperform a canon 5DIV>couldn't even afford a real MFDB that's just one or two generations behind>clips ear from not framing carefully>sloppy composition overall>doesn’t reshoot - prints and scans it>"I feel generous enough to scan my negatives, downscale 500MB tif files to 4mb and share my work with you little cunts. Dear god I wish someone on this god forsaken website would get on my level."This poster is exactly why if you don't have the actual best gear, you should shut up and work on your composition skills before your ego overinflates kek. I think nice gear brings something in itself, and I mean, like, actual nice gear. If someone has a leica m11 or the newest hassellad, or a phase one trichromatic back or iq180, that's really cool, we don't see that every day. When was the last time we even saw an anon who actually had the newest sony? Never. Ancient MF like hassy H3ds and sub-$3k phaseone kits? Nah. Not impressive. Same pics as FF. A GFX100SII isnt even that amazing desu. If your gear is so attainable, shut up and shoot. It’s just a footnote and doesn’t warrant bringing up when it wasnt even used for the photo at hand. >BUT I LF FILM?LF film shooters developed their good reputation by talking about their photos and not really talking about their gear because it's all generic/interchangeable, and how much they paid doesn't mean anything unless they got a good deal. They often build their own cameras because an LF camera is literally a box rigged to a few poles. Please don't tarnish that.
>>4510882I've considered getting a trichromatic back + a couple blue ring lenses and XF body, but I'd rather drop the 20-30 grand on getting my darkroom built.I also have 100 sheets of 8x10 ektachrome 100VS in my freezer that I need to get through first. I have my slide film processed by a lab and each shot ends up costing a little less than 25 dollars. I've considered dropping the 4k on a jobo processor and one of the 8x10 drums that does up to 5 sheets at a time, but I don't think I have the space, and I don't shoot enough c41/e6 for it to be worthwhile.Depending on how much I like RA4 printing that could change. Just imagine RA4 contact prints...Here's a test shot I took with the 100VS. 8x10 slides are really quite cool to look at in person. What camera do you have? My guess is a sony a6600 with kit zoom.>>4510883I'm glad someone else sees the humor in using nearly 20k worth of gear to take a 100 GIGAPIXEL photograph of dog.
>>4510899A canon 5d classic and a 50mm prime. I bought it for dick pics. Have a nice day!
>>4510897The point of their post is pointing out the hilarity of getting a bunch of expensive shit just to poorly take a black and white of a fucking dog
>>4510897>took the post seriously>wrote an essay about their opinionLmao. Here's a better crop. :D Speedotrons are the best bang for your buck 4800ws strobes and they work great. The majority of studio wetplate photographers use them. No way in hell am I paying 20k+ for 4800ws broncolor strobes. Not necessary for what Im doing.
>>4510903they seem to actually expect us to be impressed by their gear kek
>>4510904>fucks up composition>uh you know i can zoom in more! look! *pixel peeps harder*is this a joke?
>>4510905It was clearly tongue in cheek They were just listing off a bunch have random shit that probably gets touted on hereI ONLY use the FINEST Lenses made of QUARTZ They cost me quite a Pretty PennyNo matter; I'm what you'd call a BILLIONAIRE
>>4510904Who gives a fuck it's just a fuckin dog lol
>>4510907>randombruv, he actually bought all that. he’s been bragging about the discount mfdb for over a year. >putting the bud in the bottom of the grinderPourquoi
>>4510909That's the "container" portion of the grinderAnd kek if he's serious, this board is fucking HILARIOUSI only post on /ck/ and /o/, but found this place when someone used my "ugly slow gay" on here to describe a nikon camera if i recall correctly
>>4510907Wait, are you keysanon from ck? The point of my post was to reply to >>4510826 and it flew over the other angry guys head that I was just pointing out I technically do have a phase one digital back and have posted with it. Very funny.>>4510906The ear crop was intentional. Ever heard of leibovitz, pleb?
>>4510909Don't lie about me, mr.sour grapes. I haven't posted digital pictures or talked about my hy6 in months aside from when I got my film back adapter so I could use it for film finally. That's why I got the camera in the first place. I just got an insanely good deal on one that came with a digital back and 4 lenses.>>4510910Holy shit it is you. Are you going toxstart posting phaseone on your engine to upset everyone /p/ now?
>>4510912>>4510911>technically, i do have a phaseone>from the 1990sOk bud hope your financial situation improves soon
>>4510911That dependsDo you see me?These niggas say they heard of MeI wain't heard of you
>>4510912I don't even know what phaseone is lolI'm more into the wholeD R E A M A E S T H E T I CThey don't let me post my... STYLIZED pictures to /ck/ anymore those bastards want to see my food in all it is clarity or somethingYou just can't imitate my STYLE
I SHOOT 8X10 AND CANNOT FATHOM CARING.>>4510902Incredibly based. You as well.>>4510913LOL.>>4510914I have, yeah. If you posted phaseone on engine I think you would be the king of /p/. You gotta get the trichromatic back tho.
