>Focus stacking and lower exposure in post?
Not a bad idea if you shoot static scenes.

A strong diffusion filter will soften up the sun stars, but the end result is messy and probably not what you're looking for.
Finding an optimal lens for the task is another option. Like the anon above me suggested a lens that has rounded aperture blades (dedicated portrait lenses often use those to prioritize shape of bokeh balls) might be of use here. I'd just add that increasing the number of blades creates a similar effect. Lenses that have a high number of blades are better at keeping the round aperture shape as you stop them down.
Some kind of a slow, wide kit zoom will also have decent depth of field wide open, though might not be up to standard in optical quality .

>Focus stacking
Only good for anything that doesn't move. Can still produce some weird artefacts. Try it but be prepared for either some fucky nonsense you hope isn't obvious or to put in some work in post to make things look better
>Lower exposure
In theory yes, because you'd reduce the brilliant points of light to regularly-exposed light. Doing this is going to make your scene very, very dark without HDR bracketing which causes its own headaches similar to focus stacking (and you'll still need to edit out the sunstars on the brighter frames for the stack).

I vote you look for a slow aperture lens with rounded blades. I used the RF-S 18-45mm for a short while and while it was optically meh, it has these features and is a decent example of what you'd want. Since it's a whopping f/6.3 @ 45mm, you could theoretically get your whole scene in focus if you were far enough away. HOWEVER, there are better lenses suited for this task, this is just what I have some relevant experience with. Lots of modern lenses have rounded blades wide open for better bokeh, but sharpen intentionally stopped down to get sunstars on purpose.

>https://www.cambridgeincolour.com/tutorials/dof-calculator.htm
You can use this to rough out your DoF if it's any help in picking what kind of focal length is useful. If you were say 20m away from your focus point and shooting at f/11 with the mentioned lens, you'd end up with a 60m DoF. You'll probably still get some faint, shitty sunstars at f/11 though.

I assume diffraction spikes dont take much of the image so a simple fix would be take the same composition exact to pixel at a much wider aperture, and then blend the layers in photoshop, it would be a tad hard but nothing impossible,

Some cropping will also be required if the lens exhibits any focus breathing. Modern software is pretty good at correcting for moderate amounts when stacking, but it needs to be taken into consideration when composing the shot as well.

Well you see anon, you likely need to *own* the car to do that. (Or have a mate with a nice car, or be at a show that lets you into the cars)
Also, interior shots normally need pretty wide lenses which not everyone has access to.
As opposed to the highly ubiquitous "hey look at that car over there".

everybody taking about the moon itt needs to be executed

also what the fuck is dishonest photography? any image at all could be considered dishonest because it is a single view of a single instant of a subject or event, its like how people talk about how much they hate "bias" or "indoctrination/propaganda" when what they really mean is they dont like it when others treat a perspective other than the mainstream perspective on a topic as true
for example:
>teaching kids in school to be liberal capitalists = cool and normal
>teaching kids that liberalism and or capitalism might be bad = evil indoctrination and brainwashing
literally every perspective is biased and its the same with photography literally every image could be considered a lie based on the intentions of the person framing the image
i think the only thing that could actually be considered dishonest is how people use an image to make their audience feel, if i took a photo of a dead Palestinian killed by an israeli JDAM and the zog used the photo to say it was actually hamas who killed the kid or to say it was somehow the kids fault he god the bomb dropped on his head that would be dishonest but the photo would not be

Capitalism does not exist. It was invented as a strawman to propagandize neo-feudalism aka the unending struggle towards real communism.

And its greatest triumph is convincing americans that its real and business are the equals of the state or else the entire country is logically obligated to go full commie.

You will also find this “jedi” mind trick in other debates. And not just lefty insanity like veganism and population replacement either. It is also used by the right wing. You must adhere to ____ or your world will end if you ever stop being a hypocrite, and anyone can do anything they want and you cant logically complain. Know this trick. Fear it. Hate it.

The Bahbah thread is a great example of it. Photography done with the pretense that it's presenting some deep truth when it's just navel-gazing erotica peppered with some critic bait. The faux rebellious aspect of it is also part of the dishonesty. The photographer is playing it safe while pretending to be some daring maverick. The idea that it's speaking truth to power when it's actually just power talking. It's corrupt to the core, there's no sincerity in it.
Another example, hobotography.

Have you ever tried using the search bar on a web browser to find info about unfamiliar things? (I suggest trying duckduckgo before Google cause platform decay slop.)

A $€£ 5 round bubble level might help getting camera pointing straight down with whatever tripod+head you have. (Fancy head will not help if your tripod is a wobbly toy.)

If you need to scan documents / books borrow, rent or buy a document / book scanner. From quick glance to a € 104.40 one on sale at Amazon(de) the bundled software can flatten and split pages and remove background and fingers. (Dunno if that scanner is any good or +1000% tarifed in Murica.)

I did a lot of searching on this a year or so ago and wasn't able to find much at the time, but since I'm not knowledgeable on photography I figured it was possible I simply wasn't using the right terminology

I'm not just wanting a level, because that still introduces room for my tweaking to be slightly off if by eye I don't notice the level not being actually entirely level. I'm wanting something that actually locks itself to different angle increments so there's no room for error.

Panoramic tripod heads are so you can shoot panoramas while keeping the nodal point the same
If you pan direction on a normal tripod, differences in nodal point can give you some distortion
It doesn't have much functional benefit outside of panoramas / composite
>>4488232
You can get geared heads which offer precise angle adjustment as the knobs are "geared" rather than "locked/unlocked" like most heads, but they are generally quite expensive.
Any decent tripod will lock at whatever angle you want, and you can usually be fine with relying on the cameras built-in level.
