>>4030815berigoo photohadn't heard of this guy, just impulse bought beneath the roses after seeing this, thanks anon :)
my friend. back when we were kids he used to randomly show up with a disposable camera when we would hangout on summer afternoons or weekends and take shots that are just so precious to have now, 20 years later.he doesn't even own a camera and never did. it was a good 10 years before i bought a camera and started getting serious and documenting everything with high quality shots, long exposures, etc etc, which has amounted to absolute yyyyears of thousands of precious photos but he's the one who unwittingly started it all
I don't have a favorite photographer. I have favorite cinematographers though. I will never make films but I can at least take photographs
Hi /p/ee. So how long have you been into this hobby? What inspired you to take up photography? Where do you want to go with it — if career wise, what sort of job would you like to do?[EXIF data available.

What is low light?
>>4032081Your pictures are misleading. First off, the separation between the subject and the background is provided by the distance between the subject and the background. If the distance between the subject and the background were decreased, then the difference between the apertures would be more noticeable.Also, no information on the focal lengths between pictures are given and judging by details in the out of focus background, particularly the small light square to the right of the camera just by the strap hook, each picture is taken at different focal lengths. You can clearly see lens compression at work by the small light square's position in relation to the strap hook. As focal length increases, depth of field decreases and so narrower apertures at longer focal lengths can produce similar results as wider apertures at wider focal lengths.In short, this is a misleading conclusion. I am a noob. I've only been into photography for a couple of months so if anyone can correct me on anything, I'd appreciate it. Always want to learn. Thanks.[EXIF data available.

What image resolution encroaches on overkill, assuming the lens out-resolves the sensor? Does the reciprocal rule still hold up at higher megapixels?

When will the film market crash? I'm sick of every camera going up in prices and reaching thousands of dollars. I'm sick of paying double digits for rolls of film. Will we just have to wait it out until it's not popular anymore, or can the crash be forced?
Just don't buy some Youtube meme camera. I got picrel for 40 Bucks. And what's the point of an expensive film camera anyways? The emulsion takes the photo, the camera is just a lens holder. In my mind, as long as you can change the lens and exposure, the camera did it's job. I'll agree on the price for rolls, but cameras aren't really the problem.[EXIF data available.

>>4030807Fuck you people really live like this lol
>>4029921The problem is the price point. Sure, you could make a functional camera which takes OK quality photos. People have, just look at the Ilford ones. They're only a step up from disposables though.Once you're into the region of decent feature-rich SLRs though? The second hand market is still way cheaper than what you'd be able to develop and manufacture one for. Remember that it's a niche market too, you'll not be able to recoupe development costs by selling millions of units like back when film was still popular. It will probably happen at some point in the future, second hand cameras are only getting older and good luck finding replacement parts for them.
>>4030762>why in the fuck are these things 300 bucksBecause they’re pretty rare and they never really caught on outside of japan sadly. The recorder is pretty sturdy tho which makes it a great everyday carry well worth the prices imo
>>4029820I'd add repackaged cine film if your able to self dev, but also if you do that you can bulk load
I accidentally bought an OM-10 mk3.Never used an Olympus before, I'm adapted with Alpha cameras, sould I keep it or send it back as soon as I get it?
>>4031092I'm assuming this is his post>>4030884
>>4030634Were FEDs and Zenits only given to spies and foreigners?
>>4031102Yup that's the photo, I'm new to this shit so idk if it's a good deal, but apparently the lenses that they give make it great
>>4031136My pops got his Zenit for free, yes. But then again he did work in internal affairs back then so you might be on to something. The cameras became popular with foreigners much later on.It's still in their attic, the used market here is flooded with a million of them. They mostly work, true tanks, but everything is horrible about them.

Sorry for the gearfag intrusion, as silly as it sounds. When you are looking for gear to buy, are you more interested in the product that has all of the original packaging and such (box, manual, warranty cards, etc...) or without?I've been interested in picking up a lens, but am kind of a stickler when it comes to having the OE packaging in it to ensure that it has been taken care of subjectively. I don't like talking about gear, but I want to hear people's experiences and inputs about buying from someone who has kept all their packaging, versus without, and is it worth the extra bucks to get a clean example.Cheers.

>>4031865And then the last one when I was a wee babbie at photography, on a rebel T6 and an 18-55.
>>4031685As much as I hate to say it, Amazon is a very good middle-ground option. You can buy "Amazon Renewed/Warehouse" shit and then add a 3-year warranty and not have to worry about a damned thing.
If it has the original box and all the papers that means its owner took excellent care of it and I know im not getting junk
>>4031685Ebay scumbag merchants will buy empty boxes to increase price of their dust ridden merch.
just thrifted this thing for $50. is this one of the good lense? its heavy
If I were you I would sell that shit on eBay and buy a Minolta with some good glass / a 50 1.8mm and keep the changeAE-1 isnt' a bad camera but it's super overpriced in the market and im sure some zoomer would love to buy it from you for too much money.
>>4031629why trade night vision and ass rippin bokeh for a generic slr? u daft?

>>4031523I don’t feel like there’s a clear subject, it’s very blurry.
>>4031523I feel like this subject would be boring in daylight, but in the second picture, the fact that the darkness obscures the row of houses (i think?) kinda makes it look like a train. The composition of 1. doesn't have the same vibe because you can't see enough of the row of houses.Technically though, it's very blurry, hard to make out your subject.
>>4031523The phone quality and wide angle distortion ruins it. Unsalvageable as far as I'm concerned.

I wish to get a small flash to achieve a harsh P&S look, meaning it has to be close to the lens axis. There's no need for variable power, just looking for something that will balance well on my dinky OM-4Ti. The unomat in picrel was my choice but I've yet to come across one for sale.
>>4029894i use one of these
>>4029894Related question: I have a zorki with a flash sync plug. Are there any very small electronic flashes (portability is key) that either take a PC socket or are easily adapted?
What do you mean by harsh P&S look. Show us a few examples.
