Do any of you guys produce (amateur or pro) any work that allows you to live/earn a decent amount off it ? If you do, what field (fashion, architecture, portraits, ...) do you practice most ?
>>3828215I've never made a single cent and I don't plan to.That would compromise my ARRRTTTT.
>>3828771No it does not >>3828776Do you earn enough to live without advertising your work ? >>3828866You know you can sell your photographs as art prints, actually this is the part I enjoy the most because I work for myself
>>3828886>No it does notDamn, i just bought a house from my OnlyFans earnings
>>3828886>You know you can sell your photographs as art printsI'd rather just dump my shit strait to public domain.If someone wants a print they can just send that shit to a printer and get it.I don't know why anyone would want one of mine as a print. They're not that good, but if someone did want one for whatever reason, I consider all of my released works to be under the WTFPL.
Time off from covid has given me the time to put together a website, review like 7 years worth of photos etc. working on a website to take my 2-3k photography earnings year into a full time business. Wedding season is about to boom and with low numbers guest count wise. You can bet people will be willing to pay more for photography and will be printing up a storm to send family. It’s gonna be a beautiful start to my career. Goal is to make 50k. Essentially 1k a week between shoots and sales. >baby photography and family holiday cards are s great way to break into the market.
Only professionals should be buying standalone cameras nowadays.Hobbyists should just buy a decent phone, it has more features than just a camera and nowadays the camera on a phone is almost indistinguishable to that of a high end camera.It can even do great bokeh effects through the use of ai like in pic relatedOnly down side is you can't change lenses but there are many settings and multi camera setups to fix this nowadays

What de we think about Sven Marquardt's work?
>>3828555He has been involved in photography since the 1980s.
>>3825210>Nikonwtf I love this guy I've never met or known before
>>3828768So have hundreds of thousands of "photographers." Stop humping some boomer's leg.
>>3828772>boomer's leg.Fuck retarded fucking cunt. His work is even better than Wolfgang Tillmans. Go ahead and suggest me a photographer whose work on Berlin club culture that you like
i see him in the streets sometimes... didnt know he did photography 2bhi hate his look but hes one of berlins icons, like NY had lou reed in the 70's or something
Bros help me I'm broken the plastic fixture on my strobe light that fixes to the tripod.I don't know how the part is called and where I can find replacement parts.I really need to use this strobe light and it won't hold on a tripod anymore
>>3828477how do you not have duct tape?
>>3828519If you use the right type of glue and clamp it together so it dries properly, it should actually be stronger than it was before.
>>3828477for a temp solution you might be able to use a hose clamp (or 2) to hold it on the tripod.
Ok you can all go back sucking dicks

Took my meme camera out for the first time. Here's what I got.
>>3828963I was defending you saying they look at photos of charts. We actually have very similar approaches avoiding post-processing and just shooting what you feel like. Do you live in NYC?
Do you have Instagram, OP?
>>3828937>>3828963>Wormji getting fucking mad about being called out as talentless GWCLol!>>3828966>I don't take photos unless the creative decisions I made are identical to the creative decisions my piece of consumer electronics made an I don't understand how to translate the raw image I took into the image I wanted to portray.Then start practicing lad, you're not "creating something you didn't see" unless that's what you aim to do. When you took that photo, did you see the darker areas as soft and fuzzy, with muddy colours and speckled noise? No? Then you forced your camera to give you a photo that doesn't represent what you saw and you've done exactly what you claim you're trying to avoid.
>>3828970I do. I’m aware I was just quoting both of you. Queens. I’m actually headed to the city later today to catch some flicks before a bumble match. Recent city photos always impress bitches. Not a fan of the new lights they installed in the oculus though. >>3828972You understand you can see something without literally seeing something. Fuck I swear the people who post on this board are dense as fuck. No wonder I eclipse other local photog who went to school for photography. Their mindset for creating and creative vision is one track from what they learned from some washed up academic.
>>3828966>I find post to be extremely boring, and a crutch.So do I, that's why I've got something like 80gb worth of unedited RAW files at the last time I took notice kek.>I don't want to create something, that I didn't see, in post.You never really see it the way the camera does anyway. Your eyes don't crush shadows and blow out highlights (well, they shouldn't) or shit up your night vision with electronic noise.
How does /p/ feel about Luminar? I’ve purchased it for quick touch up on portraits. Haven’t used it much yet aside from a product shoot. It for sure has some interesting flair to it and tools that cut down on post processing time. Absolutely can save a few trash photos if you don’t get what you intended to. I personally find masking very tedious and for like 100 this will save me a ton of time. >any one use it? >any tips or tricks not obvious to people already familiar with post processing?I’m not gonna lie the sky replacement tool is pretty wild. I’ve easily turned around some dull shot that were otherwise great with a shit overcast sky.
Ah I just got me a fat fucking raise at work and will have the disposable income to pic up a hobby other than jerking off to anime titties, I used to be into photography in highschool perhaps I should but a camera.This fuji looks nice, I thought to myself, but I should check on /p/, 4chan always knows best>WORMJIw-what, oh, maybe a Sony Alpha a7S>HAHAHAHAHAhmm I wonder what these /p/easants actually use>check out my canon dadbrick, it weighs enough to bludgeon a man to death withI hate photography now, I'm going to punch a hole in a cereal box and put in some polaroid film then I'll be back to post some real ART
>>3828701What is that supposed to prove?The image looks good and raising the exposure would ruin the mood.Why do you act like art photography is industrial radiography where you target a specific density and expose/process with that in mind?
>>3827695>Digital camera>3 out of the 4 are film cameras.Do hipsters really into Zenits? Because I've got two of them ;_;
>>3827639go fuck urself you wormy piece of shit
>>3827641pic related is a limp wrist but takes good pics with the Mamiya
>>3828632So asshurt. I’m sorry your artistic style is generic bright colors. >>3828708Wormji screechers lurk this board hating anything that isn’t straight out of a cannon with 10 minutes of post processing. It’s boring and they have no artistic style to their photos. They just screech about the exposure triangle and perfect numbers. These are people who take the science of photography and turn it into soulless production. I produce my vision.

Is there a way to take photos in the dark without the flash showing up in the person's eyes?
>>3828875Just use a flashbulb from any angle other than strait-on?
Put a white plastic card at an angle in front of the flash to bounce it off the walls.
>>3828875>without the flash showing up in the person's eyesYeah, don't use a flash or take photos of people.
>>3828875just edit it post, then realise portraits look kinda weird without light reflection from eyes
Comfy cameras edition. Welcome to the /fgt/ where we ask the same 3 questions about scanning and medium format cameras none of us can actually afford.
>>3828874Wish someone made a half decent medium format scanner that costs under $1.5k, guess ill have to start DSLR scanning
>>3828879SameIt's like there's some weird economic body regulating and fixing the prices of certain items and putting criminal penalties on pricing them outside of those brackets
If I put my AE-1 Program on program mode, set the aperture manually and activate DOF preview, is that basically aperture priority?
>>3828881the scanner market is really weird, specifically the whole silverfast licensing grift. feels kind of similar to inkjet printers being deliberately badgoing to shill my link again btw http://q3q.net/plustek-8100-6x7.htmlworks ok but i still have to design and print a decent film tray.
>>3828948Thank you very much for this. My 8100 is arriving briefly and I'm looking forward to maybe modding it someday if I ever switch to MF.
I've been doing a lot of photography on my phone and i feel like it's time for me to invest in a proper camera.I'm looking for something basic and beginner friendly, something that isn't too complicated but kinda gives you a feel of what it's like working with a "real" camera. Preferably not too pricy either.If any of you guys have some suggestions for good cameras for beginners please let me know :)
>>3827984I'll conciser it, thank you!

>>3828073To play devil's advocate, x100 requires lots of awareness from user to take full advantage of it. Those cameras are high quality, well performing, insanely beautiful, but not nearly as obvious as traditional DSLR/mirrorless. Imagine that you've only just learned what this entire exposure triangle is, and then you get a camera that>doesn't quite show you what lens sees when used in optical mode, so you're trying to focus on something 1m away from you and you miss due to OVF parallax>doesn't yield particularly amazing results if you process photos in lightroom unless you use different raw converter or shoot jpeg>uses 35mm focal length, which is pretty great but also doesn't feel nearly as low-effort-high-reward as 70mm+ bokeh close ups that every newbie has to shoot before moving onStill, i can't really discourage anyone from getting it, and it's not like snapping a photo on full auto would be a rocket science, so it would be usable even if you're new. The answer i like the most is probably >>3827984: get a full-blown standardized old dslr, get bunch of cheap lenses with time, go wild with technology, and then do your next purchase as an educated camera user, knowing exactly what you want.still, x100 series are amazing cameras and if anon feels like it's worth a shot, then it probably is

My local WallShart has a GoPro hero 7 white for 89$ bucks, is it a low enough of a price to justify buying it?I would like to get some footage on head, chest, over the shoulder, crotch, wrist mount and so on and I expect it to get hit with a sword from time to time, one thing I'm concerned about is the software stabilization and if it will be enough with all the spastic movement that I will do. Don't have a real need for 4k yet and I'd rather crush my balls then edit it on my coomputer.

>>3821888Xpro3 is great apart from the time when the rear screen died. Kinda wish they don't have the eink screen all together.Hey, they could've put a metal slot there and some (fake) film box lid we could slide in there. I'd still buy that.
>>3828583Keep, that's a good lens, 12-40/2.8 next and you are set for everything.
>>3828650Is that the meme Dura black edition?God I regret so much for not going for it. At the time it's merely 110usd more than the standard version. I hesitated as the reviews says it looks like it's been dug out of a ditch after 30 second of use. A few months later I saw used one on display in the local camera mall and saw a Dura silver version and my god does it look glorious. It looked almost like the contax G2 in the store next door.

I'm aware that when putting a prime lenses on a crop sensor, you're actually getting a "bigger" image i.e. a 35mm is actually closer to a 50mm on a crop camera.My question is, does this only affect the "image size", i.e what's in frame? Or does it also affect the DOF?Pic related. I'm wondering if my background blur will still be like the 35mm, or more like the 50mm
>>3828698everything you see is bigger
>>3828897>t. can't afford Bokehyou know you don't have to disparage things because you can't achieve them
