Yet, it's ignored by noobs and seasoned hobbyists somehow.

Because even the average IBIS on the a7c allows you to consistently take sharp handheld 0.5-1s exposures with a 50mm if your technique is anything better than sloppy and you can manage not to sway back and forth while standing, and digital cameras have such enormous ISO ranges compared to film that the only people who still need tripods are using telescopes, shooting self portraits, or doing long exposure photography.

Tripods and base iso go hand in hand. Something so satisfying about going into mirror up mode, setting a shutter delay to further minimize vibration, then taking the shot at tiny aperture low iso. So cash opening up the RAWs later and enjoying the massive depth of field, dynamic range, and color depth you get. High iso is and has always been a compromise.

Lately I've been thinking about trying to simulate ultra low ISOs with frame averaging and one of these. In fact with a crop sensor you could get full frame or MF-levels of noise (and sharpness in theory?). Might be useful for landscapes or high contrast shots like sunset.

>you can just buy a 1000 dollar camera body so that you can maybe get a 1 second exposure instead of buying a tripod for 20 dollars where you can get as many seconds as you like.

The average person can easily do this with no ibis at 50mm, longer if you crouch or lean against something

OP post on /RPT/ is handheld, and its at 300mm, though I was crouched.

>20 dollar tripod is not holding your camera still.
Seeing as tripods become instantly valueless as soon as you buy them, you can easily get an ultra high end tripod for that price. They are absolutely everywhere.

Well, a tripod would have let you stop down to get more than 3mm of frog in focus for your selective color slop.

>w-w-well OKAY fine but its still bad
If it wanted to stop it down I would have, its a 300 f/2.8 and im going to shoot it wide open no matter what. I can hold a camera steady with no issues really. I thought being able to hold the camera was part of the basics but apparently not.

I guess it passes because it's 300mm.

>20 dollar tripod
If your camera is under 5lbs you may be able to get something okay, but an ultra high end carbon fiber tripod is definitely not 20 smackers.

NTA anon but I bought a tripod for what I think would be around 90 USD that would have been around 900 USD new. Im sure you could get a 300 dollar new one for like 20.

Well that's dumb... composition works on all 3 axes; DoF is part of the equation.

Yea but that close @ 300mm, even if I went f/8 there would still be heaps of blur. Might as well commit. If I wanted more DOF I would have just used another lens.

Apparently you should just buy used. You should be able to get a used carbon fiber gitzo for that price.

To each his own... I don't like seeing the entire focal plane as a flat line like that. I have 105, 70-200, 300, and 400 f/2.8 on FF and stopping down to f/4 would make a huge difference with all of them.

Tripods and monopods have their uses but both are both shit for my needs. I may use one every 2 or 3 years and even then I usually end up handholding for my favourite shots.

Quoted By:

I nearly never use my tripod any more except for night photography and long exposures. It's too annoying to carry on a trail, and sensors nowadays are good enough for handheld in 95% of situations.
Plus I've noticed that using a tripod, I get much less creative because I essentially stay in the same spot for longer to avoid doing the setup all over again. I also try more unusual angles without a tripod.

Nobody is ever going to believe you post good photos, cANON. Make up as many dumb stories as you want nobody believes them. You're a snapshitter who is too cowardly to attach his name to his work lmao.

If you put this much effort into taking a photo maybe you'd have one you felt comfortable posting instead of being a bitchboy.

I've almost bought the AP-01 but changed it at the last minute for the AP-100.
It's been an okay tripod for the past year but I only shoot 35mm and don't want/need anything heavier in the future.
