Post your questions here that don't fit anywhere else or are too short to deserve a separate thread. Dumb. Smart. Snooypy. We got'em all.

1. Generally, don't be a fuckwit to someone asking a question unless it's deserved.
2. Gear topics are fine so long as it's a question
3. Read the /p/ Sticky

Anybody see any value in this, or is it the photography equivalent of a TikTok dance craze?

Agfamatic 100 and Expired Film

No.4390836 View ViewReplyOriginalReport
I can only find film from 1988/89 for this camera. Is it worth taking a gamble buying a 16 dollar roll? Not really into photography but after some shitty photographs when I’m out with friends.

Noob here. How did a Playstation gaming company dethrone all the legacy camera companies?

Was it because the move to mirrorless was the perfect catalyst to leverage their electronics tech knowhow?

Micro contrast is not real. 3D pop is not real.
Well, they may be real phenomena of an image, but they are not imparted by certain lenses due to certain optical designs.

Anyone who supports the idea of 3D pop, Zeiss pop, or micro contrast is an anti-science luddite or a grifter.

Watch any of these people try to explain what 3D pop or micro contrast is and their bullshit is self evident. If a phenomenon cannot be described using scientific language and measured objectively, it isn't real.

Every time you see an A/B test for 3D pop or microcontrast, the tester is using different camera bodies, or the composition is different, the color grade is different, different exposure levels or the lighting has changed.

The only other area that has so much peasant level superstition has got to be pro audio.
