>the small battery has really helped me to not overshoot and really think about the shot
What are some more photographer copes?
>>
>i dont need AF because i plan my shots out
>i dont need battery life because i dont spray and pray
>i don’t need digital because i get it right in camera every single time you dont need more
And then his portfolio is a year of repeats, different takes of the same dull subject matter…

Pets
Pedestrians
Poles
Plants

Technological and financial misfortune never made anyone better. They simply never stopped talented people from being good.

Don’t join a cargo cult. Gear has zero correlation with talent.

>Overshoot
>>
Photography is a cope.

>film is a better format because it made you to slow down and think about your subject

Filmfags are both coping and gatekeeping at how their "hobby" being democratized
>>
I always "overshoot" if I find a subject I really like. The best photo almost always ends up being one of the ones I didnt expect

>this piece of gear will make my pictures better
>>
>>4157191
it does!
it will make your pictures better!
it won't make your art better but you're not an artist are you
>>
>>4157192
To me the quality of a picture is not dependent on its technical perfection, my work doesn't make any sense and doesn't make any money. I think I would qualify as an artist.
>>
>>4157194
Is it pictures or works?
Is it art or photography?

There's a difference. Mind you, artists normally make some money. Fun is what they have when they can't have success.
>>

I will or will not, but Il'l laboriously work out the perspective in certain places that got my interest, and that has given me great shots. Still, to some extent I envy the high level that a friend achieves with snapping away -> spontaneous and natural situations, sometimes great situations he managed to anticipate and capture.
Some shots can't be composed with time and some shots don't even require good composition.
>>
>>4156936
Most good photographers, even ansel adams, were not stingy with film and had a lot of low grade throaway stuff and just random touristy snapshits that were never made for arts sake.

Some people try way too hard like it'll make them more talented.

>i dont need AF because i plan my shots out
thats the one thing wrong with your post. this is YOUR cope.
>AF
99% of actual photographers dont use AF whatsoever (not talking about blue collar and/or youtube tier wedding/sports/event ''photographers'' aka. glorified snapshot takers with real cameras.) hell, blue collar glorified snapshitters aside, even most wildlife photographers dont use AF unless they really have to

I can't take a big camera in public. Noooo everyone will notice. I need to buy a fujicoh. Until then, I can't shoot street.
Everyone still notices your goofy creepy ass.
>>
>>4157297
Your models are almost as hurt as your edits lol.
>>
>>4157297
Really? I rather know only hobbyists and blue collar photographers and all of em use auto focus except for certain situations e.g. macro. Some of them, the elderly, started focusing manually. I mean, your shot has a very wide dof, was shot in bright light. Still, I would've used AF for it. What's your background?
>>
>>4157297
Cope larp

>>4157312
I don’t think anyone is larping with shots this bad.
>>
>>4157297
If you never ever leave your haughty bubble and have fun with other stuff that’s actually less respectable than being an amateur. It’s being a rich amateur who thinks you ought not drive a car unless it’s at the races, else ride a bicycle. What a tryhard.
