Have you ever gotten a strong emotional response after viewing a specific phot, like you would in a movie ? Or maybe going to an exhibition or reading a book ? Or is photography just "pretty cool" at best ?
Pic related is the first response I got when searching " best art photography ever" online. While it's really good and impressive, I can't really say it makes me feel anything in my gut.

Post pics that make you feel something, inspiring photographers/books etc.

Why is like this with fucking bags?

went out to take some photos

>you take a photo of someone on the street and you get this reaction
how do you respond?

I always been into amateur photography but since I inherited a pretty good camera from my dad (which is now horribly obsolete) I never actually bought a camera or read about different brands, I decided to buy my first camera after being humbled by my pixel 10 phone
So anyway I spent the last weeks reading,watching videos, comparing sample pictures
This is my take
Fujifilm is overpriced garbage that sells pretty looking cameras that produce edited jpg pictures for people who think doing that yourself is 'cheating' fanbase is entirely delusional and full of midwits and people who buy beard care products
Sony provides the best price vs quality cameras but buying new models is a trap because all new upgrades in sony cameras are v*deo related and therefore irrelevant since nobody takes hd videos outside of infl*encers
Canon fell off
All other brands are either dead or rich retard tax (leica, hasselblad)
So based on this knowledge the only logical choice is 5-8 year old sony cameras with third party lenses
Am I right ?

largeformat chads, monorail users specifically, what is your tripod setup? I have a chunky set of legs, and currently i've just been bolting it straight to the monorail which works, but as you can imagine is limiting in terms of any sort of adjustments, outside of fiddling with the legs. I guess, what heads have you found work for your big chunky cameras? Looking at one of picrel but i don't want to buy a dud.

What are your setups? Which products can you recommend? And wtf are the bastards from negative supply snorting to justify their pricing?

speaking of: Does anyone have the STLs from tonecarrier? I am a poor bastard and want to try them out.

other than that, I had no luck with the free printables you find on thingyverse etc.

just bought a m10 and proceeded to slap the cheapest japanese glass i could find on it, a voigt 35/2.
