You're already on it.

Flickr if you use the groups and find a good active group and have patience. You'll rarely get anything good out of the site on it's own.
500px, you may get a passing comment here or there and a tonne of likes.
Instagram, much the same but I don't think I've ever seen any legit C&C.

Mostly you have to look for critique and not be an ass when you get it.

It does seem like everyone on this page is a lot better the rest of 4chan. I really excited to get my new camera, have not had one in like 4 or 5 years and never go any good with it because i didnt have it very long. one of my biggest problems is that i dont have any training and dont know where to start. been watching youtube videos, so i guess im going to just have to self teach myself for the most part.

Quick reminder, you're a cropbabby if you waste money on anything less than full frame.

Gonna pull the trigger. D7100 or D5500? I like the swivel screen and smaller size of the 5500 and I'm not convinced I need the extras of the 7100.
With the 18-140mm lens

OP fell for the film meme

>>2908718
Dickhead fell for generic meme reply with zero substance. OP, just try opening up the camera.

>>2908797
I tried to open it, anon. I'm sticking an air horn can inside and but to no avail and my neighbors even complained about the noise. I thought maybe the vibrations would shake the button loose. I'm going to try supergluing the button to the end of a chop stick and see if that gives me more leverage. If that doesn't work, my plan B is to try to gently pry the lens off with a can opener. Hopefully the pressure from the air horn will have jarred it loose? I have a syringe, so I could inject liquid soap or wd40 inside the camera to see if that helps, too.

>implying

>$3,000 camera
The entirety of my gear is worth maybe $900 max.

>>2908669
no one on here has a 3000$ camera

Pretty!

you gonna wanna learn what effect different apertures give you and when to use them if you wanna use aperture priority

theres a shit load of tutorials on youtube covering aperture, shutter speed, exposure etc, just keep watching and practicing

learn how to compose your shots too, rule of thirds is a good start but it doesnt always apply, you gonna wanna think about your foreground/background, what your subject is etc

once you start taking some decent pictures youre also gonna wanna get some editing software like photoshop or lightroom, then watch a shit load of tutorials again to learn how to enhance your photos, levels and curves are probably most important imo

>>2908065
start with cambridgeincolour.com/tutorials
I personally am a huge fan of the book "Understanding Exposure" by Bryan Peterson

Aside from those, shoot, experiment with settings to see what they do (I'm a proponent of starting in priority modes to get a solid understanding of what aperture does, then shutter, and then play with manual if you want to, but if you're in manual and just lining up the arrow with the center, you're learning nothing).

Youtube's a great resource. If you have an adobe subscription, their videos are awesome. Basically, just dive in, start searching shit out, learning about it and practicing it.

Don't expect awesomeness at first, it takes time, but with time and effort you'll get it.

Also, there are three photo 101 assignments posted on /p/ now that you can try out.

If you shoot anything that isn't stationary aperture priority isn't what you want. Unless blur.

>>2907830
if youre not really into photography and just want easy quick photos and videos then yea they are good

if you want decent quality pics in a range of situations then get a second hand dslr

dslr will give you clear good quality pics in most situations where as go pro is just point an shoot with no zoom and a wide angle wich isnt always ideal

>>2907830
over priced and not really worth the cost.

>>2907832
I have used GoPro a few times. There are other makes out there that are cheaper and better for that sort of photography. I agree with your statement 100%.

>>2907793
the internet

>>2907796
Great, thanks! Any idea where I can find that?

>>2907811
type filters into the search bar at the top of your browser

>>2907622
Sounds like it's pretty much totaled. Once condensation forms, it's game over. Start shopping for a new camera. Donate the old one to Salvation Army or part it out on ebay.
Sorry for your loss, OP.

>>2907622
White rice is really good for removing condensation. Cook up a cup or two of white rice (or get some from your fav Chinese take out joint), then let it cool off a little bit until it's just luke warm. Use your hands to mold the rice around the outside of the camera. If you have a detachable lens, use a wooden or plastic spoon (not metal, don't want scratches) to pack the rice really tightly inside of the lens and camera body. It might sound strange but it really does work on cameras, and on cel phones, too, if you ever get one wet. Just keep covering the camera with rice and packing it inside the lens. You'll have to wait 24 hrs, I would wait 48 or 72 hours, even. The rice will all dry out and fall off the camera. You can shake the dry bits out of the lens and it should be good as new. Just make sure that you only use pure white rice without anything else -- no soy sauce and no fried rice with eggs and veggies, just white rice.

>>2910097
Dude the rice isn't supposed to be cooked wtf, if it's cooked then it's already puffed up and saturated with moisture.
