I use this P&S mainly to take pics of friends because my phone camera is utter shit for anything other than college notes
Fuji x100f. Fits in any pocket, and I pair it with the instax square printer. It’s a hit on dates and at parties.
What's some used gear I should buy to fill the emptiness? Cameras, lens, lights, anything. Maybe some interesting stuff.
>>3581324Learn new photographic techniques and styles. That will do more to fill the emptyness and lack of motivation than new gear.
>>3581324I find buying a new strap or case fills the void for a time and isn't as expensive as lens or bodies. Tripods and books are good too.
Fill the void with new experiences and not new gear. Get a new hobby that can be incorporated into photography, like hiking or fishing.
>>3581324Have you tried going out and take photos? Taking pictures out of the window doesn't count.
>>3581455Do you have any recommendations?
Why are photographers so poor at developing a unique artistic vision? It is totally obvious in music, painting and literature. But I am looking at photography and no discernable and unique styles seem to emerge from people.[EXIF data available.

How would be able to use this technique today? would it work on pictures that feature something else other than people?>Background info: David Hamilton was a British photographer and film director best known for his photography of young women. His signature soft focus style was called the "Hamilton Blur", which was erroneously thought to be achieved by smearing Vaseline on the lens of his camera. It was not created that way.[EXIF data available. Click here to show/hide.]Camera-Specific Properties:Image-Specific Properties:Image Created2012:12:15 13:59:55
>>3580698Of course.
>>3580120>How do I do this>just practicewhy the non-answer
>>3580848You've already been told ITT. It isn't a cake recipe. You literally have to wing it. Just on exposure alone you could write 100 books and still not relate it well compared to what taking and developing 100 photos in experience would net you.
You’re all very close but no ones got it right yet. It’s a mix between pushing and pulling and the soft filter - but it works because it’s shot under a particular light quality. He uses Ektarchrome if I recall and usually pushes it a stop or two

>>3571894Reduces working distance. With a short focal length, using extension tubes could put the focal plane somewhere inside the lens barrel.

>>3579915The four thirds lenses are almost all fuckhuge relative mft lenses. I'll take a picture for you tomorrow, the ft 12-60 is almost as tall as the mft 12-100, and quite a bit girthier along it's length. MFT lenses seem to be significantly more optimized than their predecessors. Another foot example are the kitlenses, with the same apertures, the 14-40 mft kitlens is like 30% smaller than the four thirds counterpart.The new f4 pro lenses are going to be extremely compact.
>>3576735>Mfw a phone with an f1.7 lens and sensor 1/32 the size of full frame has almost the same snr as f4 on mft. Less than half a stop difference! >>3577021>calling f5.6 equivalent a fast aperture zoom, and hoping the f8 will be okHoly fucking keks
>>3580259Sure thing. It should be considerably smaller than the Panasonic 12-35 or else the Oly 12-45 f/4 is not worth it

>>3581659It's a good real life sample. And it enrages you whenever you see it because it's dismantling your high iso claims.

>>3580450Ink jet prints passed up photo laser printers over a decade ago.
>>3581343FWIW when you get into Epson's pro line 17" or wider, ink carts are expensive but they're also tanks without any damn sponges. The carts last forever. Cost per print drops well below lab prints even on expensive fine art papers. They also don't irreversibly clog like most ink jets. If you haven't used it in a while you need at most a single cleaning cycle.I don't know what Canon's upper end printers are like.
>>3579746What's complicated?* Tell your printer to let Photoshop manage colors.* Choose the right paper type and printing options (i.e. dpi, which tray you're using).* Choose the right paper color profile in Photoshop.* Choose rendering intent (typically Relative with BP comp; this is a taste thing and occasional I prefer Absolute).* Print.That's my software and workflow for color. For B&W I tell PS that the printer will manage colors and I use ABW mode in the Epson printer dialog. I don't know what printer you have or if there's a comparable B&W mode built into the printer, so for B&W your workflow might be identical to color. If you do have Epson ABW is excellent for B&W and you basically don't need to do anything else.Oh yeah: calibrate your screen.

I love not knowing what I'll get>Lab or walgreensNot sure dude, I'm not from the US but I just drop mine to a camera store in the city>Can it go sharper?Of course! Once you figure out the focus modes it'll be fine depending on your conditions. You can't really control your settings because it's a point-and-shoot so you just need to make sure you have enough light to be able to keep it steady for long enough to get the shot>Optimal focal lengthThere's an XA2 manual pdf online if you search for it. It gives the optimal distance for each of the three focusing modes

Hello, this is my zenit e with helios 44. I purchased it for an important photoshoot and paid $40 to get it express shipped to me from one state to another but due to Australia post being a corrupt organization it took 8 days to get me and as such I missed the photoshoot. Whenever I shoot with it it only carries the weight of my failures and sadness. I would throw it at the ground in anger but I dont want to break the tiles. Its missing a screw and the viewfinder is gross but the lens itself scrubbed up nicely and taught me a lot about lens repair. The selenium meter still worksI have not yet developed the photos on it.[EXIF data available.

Kindly leave your ego at the door.Posting short films/scripts or other work you've done is encouraged.We tend to use and recommend DSLRs/mirrorless cameras because they provide phenomenal picture quality for their price, have large sensors (ie the same size used in high-end cinema cameras and higher) and have interchangeable lenses.In contrast, consumer camcorders normally have much smaller sensors and a fixed lens.>STICKY - https://pastebin.com/ryMSvthn>Helpful guide, additional books and more in-depth FAQs - https://pastebin.com/kG0gRmTZPrevious thread >>3549538Quick FAQS>what’s the best camera available on a “budget”?The blackmagic pocket cinema camera 4k, by a considerable margin>>what’s a good beginner video camera?Comment too long.

My policy is that if I can google a better photo of the thing, it's not really worth the time to take a picture of. The loophole for this is to include your friends in the photo, do something funny, or experiment.
>>3579205I had a few sunset photos just because I liked the mix of orange-pink-purple before the night sky set in.
>>3579926put a christmas tree up next to a synagogue and photograph a bunch of muslims dancing around it
>>3579205Yeah, when it comes to photographing landmarks half the fun is marveling at it with your own eyes before taking your own shot. When it comes to cliched photographs in general, it's good to have the ability to take them and have them in your skillset. And if we're being honest a lot of the time clients want the cliched photographs, but with themselves in them.
