Hi, Does anyone know who's the author of this photo? I'd like to get it in high resolution (like 4K). Thank you in advance.

What's your favourite type of filter, /p/? I don't have any filters at the moment, but I'm interested in trying out a polarizing filter for sky backdrops and clearing up water, and maybe a graduated neutral density filter for girl in wheat field style pictures. Please keep brand comparisons to a minimum. I think it's more interesting to talk about what a filter type enables you to do with a picture rather than which brand produces the best filter that will do that.

>>4430432 Yes, if you get an IR-cut screw on filter when you do not want IR in your photos. The IR cut filter is in unmodded camera for a reason. Black clothes tend to look magenta without IR cut &cet.
Many colors i(depending of pigment/dye) are light grey to white in IR so even B&W tones willl be different. Also only rare and expensive specialist lenses correct chromatic aberration out of visible spectrum.

>>4430434 Assuming your optics can handle it, why not. But if you find and a new "supernova", remember a faint red dwarf star is much brighter in IR.

>>4430459 >>4430464 I just mean like, if I wanted to focus on B&W / astro, would going the IR route give me any advantage? I already own a FF Canon and some decently wide fast lenses.

>>4430499 Do you like the look of infrared pictures? If yes then there is an advantage. If no then there is a disadvantage.
Full spectrum gives you 1-2 stops extra light so there's that I guess.

You can use modded camera with an UV/IR cut filter which passes that part of spectrum for astro.

>>4430488 >>4430612 Exactly. Manufacturers should stop putting effort into incremental upgrades.
This hobby is dying. Sales have fallen off a cliff. Companies should put their efforts into more rare upgrades with technological breakthroughs instead.

>>4430715 Apple's trashcan Mac Pro has had
unjustifiable high prices both in the new and used markets because for the longest time Apple didn't release a new one. In 2019 you would have had to pay $2000 to get a subpar workstation with hardware from 2013, now they throw them at you because of the new models.
Canon L glass does not get down in price because of age, but because of newer models. The 50mm f/1 still costs the same in the used market because there is still nothing new from Canon that replaces it, and until the RF lineup came out the same could be said for the L zooms. Retard.

and one more I will share in the next post...
You would have almost appeared as though you had some intent and style.

>>4427197 This pic
So mu advice to you is learn to be more selective and try to figure out why a picture works. You might actually end up being talantad one day.

>>4427198 I see what you mean. taking snaps of people who pass me by will not result in amazing photos all the time, so selecting for quality will be my focus
4chan seems to be the only place that I can post some of these with little repercussions so I didnt' hold back my hand with sharing some

If I had to pick some of these for a small time vernissage in a little bar or libraby I would take 9 of them. Most of your photos are (at times random) snaps of strangers with nothing that makes them stand out (enough) or connects them. None of the pictures tell a story or document something historical or cultural. Don't be afraid of cropping in on the subject if the sorroundings are too distracting, image quality is secondary when creativity counts. You expose, focus and compose well but lack intent. You have good potential.

Hi /p/eople, it's nice to see you there! I was wondering about a few things. What impact had the site outage on your habits? Did it help you to realise something, photography or life related? For me, even if I despise gear threads, I always loved this place for the honest critic ant input I received here. I don't know any other forum like this one, so I was pretty aimless during the maintenance. We're a pretty dysfunctional community, but we are one nonetheless. So, how was it for you?

what happens to perfectly-working, $500-$1000 cameras, when their proprietary batteries are no longer produced? pic unrelated

>>4429399 for what its worth, my Rx100iv still has its original battery and that camera is from like 2016. still works fine, maybe doesn't last the original 280 shots rating but its pretty good. if its a newer camera it probably supports power over USB so in effect you have infinite battery as long as you can into usb. And even on the off chance that it's been long enough that batteries no longer exist and you still somehow want to use this camera, it may even be possible to 3d print some kind of dummy battery to engage the contacts and then use an extension out to a custom battery pack or something. but i couldn't see going through all that effort for essentially a disposable camera.

You can't even see/understand that that what you say won't occur already is for older tech that came before your parents were born. You're litetally short sighted and literally blind to reality. People will be fooling with tech from our era for a very very long time. After all of us are dead and turned to dust the fun will just be starting for generations of future hipsters, tinkerers, historians, ect.

>>4429389 The batteries in almost every SLR and MILC are two LI-ION 18500 cells in series
These batteries are mass produced for fucking everything and you could feasibly wire up AAs and get 50 shots of battery life if the world ended
There's actually no reason for them not to be standardized but corporate greed because canon, nikon, and sony all use literally the same fucking battery.

I know this sounds stupid but does anyone ever feel like they run out of places to photograph around them? I might be falling for the trap of needing more and more exotic locations. Have you ever had to just appreciate the mundane shit again? I live in south florida and the average location here is an 8 lane road with strip malls on each side which looks like shit. Or suburbs that can sometimes be ok but lots of time they're boring.

>>4430075 I'm not in Miami it's like an hour away depending on traffic. I went today picre. It was the last major city I didn't hit and I can go a few more times for sure. I'd like to add that I've taken a few thousand pics and have hit up most of the major areas it's not like I just started and I have no clue what to do. Do you guys reshoot the same places multiple times? I'm not trying to be a big baby just wanted to see if anyone else felt like this

How will camera companies continue to try and justify charging people so much money for cameras when not only does everyone carry a "good enough" camera in their pocket and spams the internet will billions of snapshits every day but also when now there's AI which will eventually get "good enough" and even more billions of fake snapshits will flood everywhere but also when it's impossible for the people who actually do put in the effort to make any fucking money? Anyone work for a camera company here who can provide any insight or confirm whether or not the internal conversations about the future of their companies sound like: "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH WHAT ARE WE GONNA DO?????? AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH WHAT THE FUCK?!!!!!""
