M43 sister, what have you been up to? I know, I know, we're adventurers at heart and go out and shoot rather than debate on a mongolian anime figurine shooter board but summer's coming to an end.
Let's bring back /m43/ and get those fool framers shit their pants because they spent 4 times as much for 8 times as bad cameras.
/fgt/ daily reminder (courtesy by anon): one stop per decade is (generally) bullshit >negative film ages better than positive >black and white better than color >slow films better than fast >storage conditions (dry/cool) matter more than years >Negative film is shot 1 or 2 stops overexposed and then PULLED in development so that you build more density in the exposure and develop less such that the fog is limited >slide/positive film is shot at box speed or overexposed and pulled. >if you home develop you can also use benzotriazole as a restrainer for the the first developer in E6 process
If you have questions about a new camera, what lenses to buy and anything related to gear or wondering about getting into photography, post it in this thread.
I have been studying alot of ancient history, specifically ancient astronomy. I am now certain that all world events can be predicted from studying the skies. Anybody here using telescopes to photograph comets? I am looking for roughly what I need, and examples of what you guys are getting with your gear? I really need to be able to see and photograph comets and meteors in space.
Anyone know what is going on with my camera? I just got a Canon 5d classic and all of a sudden there sre black bars on the lower portion of my photos. I took the lens off and it looks like the mirror only flips up half way when taking a photo. If I turn the camera vertical it works just fine though and flips up all the way. Reslly odd. J suspect it might be caught on something? I know the 5D has mirror issues but I havent heard of this before. The shitty part is that this 5D was in pretty mint condition otherwise with very few acctuations.
Post the photos you've taken on your rides. I've taken up cycling recently, here are mine. Could someone please give me some feedback? Have a nice time
Sold all my camera gear (Fuji apsc) some years ago. Now I wanna get back into photography. Just as a hobby, not professional but I still want high quality. I do lots of weekend trips and traveling with family so I don't want a huge camera with big zoom lenses. Probably one or two prime lenses are enough for me. Being familiar with Fuji the new X100VI looks very good to me. My prefered focal length, good viewfinder, etc. I know it's not available now but lets ignore that fact for now. But then I was thinking why not going full frame this time. Back then it was too expensive but now it seems very reasonable. The Sony A7CII doesn't look much bigger than the Fuji and is in a similar price category. But the last time I tested a Sony (I believe it was the A7III) I really disliked it.. felt more like a computer than a fun camera. For me the overall experience when taking photos takes a big part of it. Anyone here who has experience with both cams that could give me a suggestion?
Hello /p/, I plan on going backpacking for a couple months around the middle east and Africa and usually I would take my film camera but as I want to take videos I have decided to buy a mirrorless.
I was just about to buy a second hand Fuji X-t3 which looked perfect for my needs and price point but then found out it doesn't have in built stabilisation which isn't good if I want to make little films especially as I won't have space to lug around extra gear like tripods and stuff. So I would like to know what might be a better option around the same price?
