Anyone else eventually reach the same end?

Linear Profiles

No.4446559 View ViewReplyLast 50OriginalReport
Probably doesnt need a thread but I've struggled with photo editing forever and this helped a lot recently.

Download a linear profile for your camera, and when loaded into LR, select it and boost exposure by 0.7, and now you're in a much cleaner slate for editing, and are seeing something extremely close to what the camera saw when it took the picture. Also the sliders dont fuck with each other nearly as much.

Its weird how much the Adobe profiles can absolutely nuke the dynamic range and colors on certain pictures, or why this would be "standard" on professional grade software.

Gideon Mendel (born 31 August 1959) is a South African photographer, based in London. His work engages with contemporary social issues of global concern. It was his work as a 'struggle photographer' during the final years of apartheid in the 1980s that first brought attention to his work.

Most photography isn't art. But that doesn't matter, because it's able to do things art rarely can. Photography is a vial for a memory, it makes the intangible tangible. This feature is even more potent in black and white photography. Even more potent if there's some motion blur. So don't be sad your "snapshit" will never be art, be glad that you captured what your eyes could only see for a split second just for it to vanish into nonexistence. Advocates of cineslop say it's sculpting in time. Photography is making time meaningless, cutting right through it and spitting in the face of Chronos. That's why La Jetée is genius, beneath the superficial time travel argument lies the fact that photography is how we travel in time. It's how we make the fleeting eternal. Just think of how the accounts of deja vu phenomena skyrocketed after the introduction of photography, it literally pierces the matrix of time in the minds of those who experience it. I'm certain that if we one day gain the ability to control time, photography will be a huge part of that. Time is first and foremost about perception and only photography has what it takes to train the brain to be able to take charge and go from passive observer to being the one in control.

Sup guys, I just got back digitals of my first successful reel. I've never been good at taking photos but this camera makes it feel special enough to hook me and make me want to get better.

What's the excuse for literally all mirrorless bodies not having built in ND filters as a feature?
