"Merry Blobmas" Edition.
Previously:

I was the anon thay said i fucked up my first roll of film like 2 months ago. Well, I got the roll of film back, and the light had only ruined like 8 photos so, 16 were pretty ok, besides looking like shit because I'm new to this. I especially liked this photo, but it looks kinda retarded.

Incidental Northern Mocking bird outside my balcony. Didn't have a picture of one yet.

I would like a small, retro style camera for hobbyist / snap shitting type photography. Image quality is important to me, but not the end all, be all. I do not want a full frame type camera such as the ZF. I already have a D850, and actually owned a ZF for several months, before getting rid of it as the lack of grip and overall hugeness made it very unfun to walk around and shoot with. Between the OM-5 and some Fuji cam, which is the best choice?

Welcome to /m43/general!

m43 sisters, we are known to be adventurers at heart. While Wormfags and Snoybois debate mtf charts and x-trans rights, we go out and explore the world around us. Capturing its beauty within m43's infinite depth of field.

In this edition: I am back to m43. I've sold my huge bulky Nikon Zf after realizing that I'm way too feminine to lug around such a huge piece of Japanese technology and I got meself a brand new OM5 Mk. II.

I also got a GX9 to live out my closeted homesexual street photography urges. Picrelated is my sane financial choices in one picture. Enjoy!

I see a pattern. One of making the world increasingly drab to demoralize the people. Look up their early lives.

Continuous LED lights are terrible for photography.
This is an approximate $2400 600watt continuous LED light.
At a distance of 2 meters, it can manage 1/60 iso400 f8 at full power.
That converts to f4.8 iso400 1/200 if you wanted to get up to a barely usable photography shutter speed.
And if you want to go down to iso 100, you are now around f2.8

So $2500 gets you something barely usable on your lowest settings at approx 2 meters, any further distance and it wont work.

And if you want to use any modifier at all its all over and you wont even be able to have enough light for a photo.

In before just shoot at iso 1600, no thanks, im not spending $2400 just to have to use iso1600.

New color film!!!
lucky 200 has finally dropped.
Anybody shot it yet? waiting for my order to arrive.
