Never for the large format bit.
You will /never/ get the same detail that large format offers in digital, screencap this, you will /n e v e r/
as scanning technology advances that old 8x10 negative will only get better and better.
the shitty dslr in your cupboard won't.
It's all mainly because most cameras just have the same sensors from one or two manufactures. I doubt there will be much improvement sensor wise for another 2 years

photography needs to let go of silicon based technology.

photo needs to be chemical.

I actually believe this. It's a trifle to make a bigger sheet of film, but sensors get exponentially more expensive the bigger you go. You can only cram so many sensels onto a sensor before you reach the abbe limit, and then what?

You can always stitch for still scenes, but not for portraiture, nature or action.

Fucking a horse.

I second this.

>fucking a horse being the fuckee

how would you emulate the experience of being horsefucked with VR? might need some additional props.

now, for me, reenacting a snuff film setting must be some pretty nutty VR experience. or being Michael Jackson in a huge arena with 100.000 fans cheering your songs and movements.

>1. Sometimes the light is just going to be coming from the wrong direction and there's nothing you can do about it right then and there. Come back when the sun is in the other part of the sky. Lifted shadows just look fake and lame.

It's compatible with both non-AI and later AI lenses so it's not as bad. But yeah, I don't know why everyone on YouTube is covering it. The price of this ancient piece of brick is gonna blow up.

Shiet, I can have one beat up but working for 100 bucks in a near trift shop. Should I pick it before hipsters lust after it and the price goes up?

Any camera with a manual mode can be a "digital Holga"

What I would do is;

Set to manual mode. Use sunny 16 rule and underexpose by one to two thirds of a stop to preserve highlights.

Set your white balance manually. Daylight works in most situations.


So your settings would be something like f/16, 1/125, ISO 100 for a sunny day.

Zone focus 1/3 of the way into the scene if your camera allows it.
This will ensure all of the scene is in focus, because the autofocus system will not work as good as it used to after the next step.


For increased flaring, rub some hubcap polish on the front element to remove the coating.

For lens blur apply a small amount of vaseline to the lens or a filter.
You could try heating up the vaseline, then spritzing it with a small spray bottle for an even coat.

To warm up the image, stetch a pair of tights over the lens.
The farther away from the lens the tights are, the greater the effect. Same goes for vaseline.

For vignette, make a lenshood out of toilet roll. The key is to make it long enough to obscure the sides of the lens.

I'd also turn off the display, and add an optical viewfinder to the hotshoe mount.
Or if you dont have a hot shoe just hot glue it on you stupid fucking nigger.


I feel immense regret after writing this third rate blogger tier garbage and for that I hate you, and wish you nothing but bad luck in life.
Please die, and die soon.

Are you okay man?
Maybe try to go outside for a bit, some fresh air would probably be good for you.

Excercise can be good for depression, if you don't have the motivation or are too shy to go to a gym, try starting with some walks around your neighborhood. Make them gradually longer as you get comfortable using your muscles again.

Well, I lol'd. Let's all shit on digital lo-fi (except for ricohbro, because he's a tryhard which is punishment in itself).

>>3036305
I have to pose like middle top when shooting 4x5. My tripod isn't quite as tall as me, so I have to lower my body a bit. It's not very stable or easy to see the ground glass leaning forward, so I spread my legs and crouch. Makes the process even more conspicuous, which I'm not fond of.

>>3036305
I probably do without thinking about it, now that I think about it. Nothing too crazy though.

I can't quite put my finger on why, but this is really good.

Kind of abstract
Interesting colors
Directional (the arrow)
Dark, forbidding interior
Interesting patterns
Nice framing
Good overall subject

I think you were able to put 7 fingers on it, friend. Thank you for your feedback. I'm very happy with how it came out.

>Is it just me that enjoys carrying around a bang up camera?
Yes, you are the only person on earth who does this.

Like a cheap lens and camera setup you bought off of eBay or second hand places possibly?
You are rare in this passion.

>I usually use a 5d mk3 with a sigma 24-105 DG OS for everyday shooting when I'm going somewhere serious.
I understand, yes, this isnt a humble brag, you're telling us that you just prefer to carry shittier kit, thats what i'm getting here.

>Post your own beatups :)
My beat up is a disposable kodak from 2009 with dog shit stuck in the lense from a farming show i dropped it at. Posting it would mean developing it, which I cant afford because I keep on buying new lenses for my Leica m9 which, you know, I only use for my more professional gigs with children and families.

i have a fujifilm x10 for everyday care, but i'm thinking about selling it, because I don't see myself shooting everything... even street photography I rather do with a DSLR and with a good gear. But always thinking about what to shoot

>>3036207
Yeah I get you, it's mainly for travel purposes too. I'd rather lose £200 than lose £1800 yaknow

It's okay, seems like one of those deep and meaningful fillers that CNN use sometimes about their business/finance reporters.

The background music was a irritating

But composition is the director's job.

It's good. Above average. I wouldn't normally spend this much time critiquing some random person's work on the internet, so take it as a compliment that I'm willing to watch your video 10 times.

It's over-done; you need fewer cool shots with flames and fewer shallow DOF shots and more interview and more shots showing him working. A b-shot for the interview would help.

I think starting the piece with an establishing shot of the shop or maybe that second to last shot --car pulling into parking lot and spinning tires a bit would be better than the shallow DOF car curves. I know that he's talking about the curves of cars but we just don't need DOF porn there. Drop that second shot of the grill. Or maybe even open with a close up on his face grinning while he's talking about how much he loves cars. Connect us emotionally to him.

I like the idea of what you're getting at in the reflection shot at 12sec, but it needs way more sharpening/clarity or something to push the face forward. In any case, I don't think it's a great way to introduce your talent's face.

The shot at 31sec of the mask removal is nice (needs to be brighter), but again, I don't think it's a great way to introduce the talent. Maybe a shot at 10 or 12 sec in with the talent turning a wrench with his bare hands and face visible. Then do reflection and mask removal etc. It's hard to make an emotional connection with a masked dark face or with a reflection.

Drone shot is way over-sharpened.

A little bit more separation with the background on the interview shot would be good. Maybe a touch more light on the subject making the background a tiny bit darker, plus throwing the background out of focus just a touch more.

A shot or two of just his ungloved hands would be solid; hands help establish an emotional connection.

I think your grade is a bit off too -- add a bit of magenta to most of your shots.

Good work. Shoot more.

i would prefer to do these things in after effects. if there's enough contrast you could do an alpha matte to remove the sky or just to mask the static noise layer.

Trying for colour accuracy without a calibration device is dumb, you won't get close and no panel out of the box is good at this price point.

A 2nd hand spyder/colormunki shouldn't be more than about $50.

>>3035687
> Out-of-the-box color accuracy is most important, as I won't be able to afford any calibration devices.
Dude, if you can't afford a calibrator (don't have it already(?)), then you're doing something wrong in your life or going full retard. And you should never go full retard.
