Poor man's Xpan (and 16:9) images.

Since I'm unlikely to ever get any kind of Xpan camera, I thought it might be interesting to post some wide crops from two cheap digicams and a phone (Fuijfilm J20, JX500 and Nokia Lumia 520) taken over the last few years. The JX500 has a scratched lens but nice colours and I think it does OK.

Some of these I've posted before, some I haven't.

Spent two hours at the local book market today. Reached the place a little while before sunset, pushed through my anxiety and tried my hand at taking some photographs.

Feel free to post any pictures you /p/ros took at any book fair or local market in your area.

OP don't take my question the wrong way, but I see you have a RF mount lens so your camera is relatively new. How afraid are you at any given moment of getting robbed for the camera? I have a R10 and I'm just about to sign for insurance on it because I am, very. It would help to get some outside perspective.

I guess you are kinda right. I almost fell for the GRIV monochrome. Instead I did a month of shooting only b&w and realized it's just a meme. My family ask me to send a color version of photos "but why is it black and white??". I compare both and color is always a bit nicer. The warmth of sunlight, deep greens in nature, skin toans. It's such a pleasure to see color. Probably why all movie directors immediatelly abandoned b&w when finally color film was around. It's just more alive.

You could always use a technical camera with a 120 back, but I don't really see the point when doing product photography like this unless you really needed the additional DoF that smaller formats afford you.

A good photo needs good light, which can be faint within limits of your camera and subject. If there is not enough of it for gear getting a "nice" photo may not be possible and you have to do with "evocative imperfection" aka shit. So what kind of camera you do have? Does it have a flash?
I'd expect a10+ year old canonikon hobbyist dlsr kit on a tripod or beanbag can take a properly exposed (but likely sucky) photo of a stationary subject almost anywhere in a major city from light pollution alone - with up to 30s or so exposure time and possibly horribly noisy ISO. Moving subjects will be a challenge without using flash.

>>4496472
Take photos when you find a subject in good light. Or use flash.
In situations where your gear is inadequate snap anyway, sometimes the resulting mess is interesting.

Focus in closer, probably faster shutter also and wider apeture to compensate.
Might just be a product of your lens but this is quite soft and I think there is some motion blur worsening it.

>>4495010
Motion blur. What ISO were you using indoors? I assume using auto metering?

>>4495011
Pick a point to focus on, currently everything is soft and blurry which leaves you with no clear subject.

>>4495013
Small edits to remove the "haze" of scans but yours don't seem to have that, the colours in all these seem fine to me.

> Most people don't mess around with the colours of film
Although technically correct it's a misleading statement. If you shoot film routinely you will find out the colors are highly dependant on how the scan were made, and many film stocks will look like dogshit if you make them scan by a random shop that doesn't know what they are doing (harmann phoenix...). So yes most people don't edit because they don't give a fuck, yes when you open the jpgs from the shop in lightroom it's already over, but being involved in the color editing process is a big part of film photography in my opinion. And it's actually the same for contrasts, if you are satisfied by the midpoint the scanner from the shop automatically picked for your photos that's great, but if you want a bit of creative control over the image you cannot leave it to the machine.
