I've heard good things about this adobe company.

ms paint will let you resize your images, per rules, OP, you fucking faggot.

If you bought a new camera, nikon comes with a software called viewnx 2, usually in a cd. Don't know about canon, but should be the same.

That kind of software will let you do basic stuff with raw files such as exposure compensarion, contrast, brightness, sharpness, white balance, picture control and resizing. Their jpeg exports are quite amazing too.
Hasselblad offers a free software like those that is quite good too.

For more advanced options you should either pay for lightroom (expensive depending on your situation) or if get linux and download darktable 2.0 for free. Both are amazing tools with advanced options like noise reduction, retouching tools, lens compensation, watermarks, etc...

I stick to viewnx2 because I dont have the money for lightroom, but it's basically the best software out there, followed by darktable. Such a pity it's not available for windows...

Nothing looks in focus here
>>2904141
Similar problem here, also the top and bottom portions are a bit distracting (see the lights in the top right).
>>2904145
Nice color, would have liked it more if the top wasn't cut off but I like the composition, horizontal is slightly off

Have you thought of just going to other guys or telling them about the issue and that either they fix it or you won't come again?

1000€ plus the expenses in paper and ink seems like a pretty big investment, make numbers first because those things have a limited live, just like any other machine, and depending on how much you earn with those prints maybe you won't even pay for it before it breaks.

>>2903819
>1000 euromonies on a printer
you're going to have shit quality.
Professional printers have far better equipment.

>>2903853
This is my fourth lab I'm trying. There always seems to be something, if it's not the image quality it's the lack of interest in trying to fix shit. I have had seriously cold images (not good, they are underwater photos and are cold already), problems with contrast and so on. Skin tones needs to be good, as always, and this seems to be a problem for labs. Funny thing was, in one they had it off when we compared their print with their screen. Talk about pride in their work!

But yeah, I'm not sure if it will be an economical gain, I'm prepared to pay a little to ease my life a bit.
It seems like I will have approx 500 customers this year, if it goes on like this, I'm looking for about a thousand which should yield about one half of my needed income and keep it at that.

Now this is frustrating as it seems like I have to find another lab. And no, the one I use will run my images in a standard setup, he uses ye olde school chemistry, not a printer, so I'm maybe not that keen on talking about this with the lab, again...

But so far it seems like there are no printers that also print on the backside, except for the BIG ones and that is way overkill for my needs, at the moment with 500 customers I expect to print maybe 600-650 15x20 images, in centimetres.

>>2903897
>you're going to have shit quality.

Kay. I believe I'll have acceptable quality. But again, this IS 4chan where nothing satisfies the pixel peeper by the keyboard!

The best practice is changing settings in manual and taking pictures of landmarks near your house. However you can usually shoot in automatic as long as you at least focus manually.

Honestly, just playing around with manual settings is a good idea. But just putting it on Auto and focusing manually is a good start as well. Everyone learns at a different pase though so it just kinda depends on your knowledge of photography already,

>>2903713
Try watching histograms and of course editing a few images that you shoot now.

Automatics are pretty good on good modern cameras. You will get a lot of good pictures if you only shoot halfway reasonably with a decent camera.

Crime happening in Rio? No...never.

Also, how long until cheap "gray market" Canon gear shows up on ebay?

>>2903683
God I wish I could've been there to steal all that glass

dont bother with that trash

if you cant afford a leica just get a bessa

>>2903678

Seconded. I love these, and have half a dozen different models of Jap rangefinder of this type and age, including a Canonet and two Minoltas (a 7s and a 9).
The age of them will require you being VERY lucky to find even one that is partially/mostly working without a full CLA, and a full CLA will cost almost as much as a used Bessa. Buying six Canonets to find the one working one in the group will cost far more.
The electronics are just are not that reliable anymore either, and most dont have full manual modes.

Get a Bessa. They rock. I used to rock a Leica with a badly dented top plate I paid very little for as well.

>>2903664
That canon is often ridiculously overpriced.
Get a Konica Auto S3 or S2. Both great rangefinders with excellent lenses you can still get for cheap if you look around. The S2 is a bit bigger but has an incredibly sharp lens to compensate (just look up old reviews).

Or just get a Bessa like previous anons suggested if you want interchangeable lenses.

>>2903588
Very good even surface for minidollies

>>2903590

>wireless connection to camera, most cameras dont have that.
option 1. camranger
option 2. diy router hack imitation camranger
option 3. trade for android tablet and shoot tethered via camera's mini USB out to micro USB on tablet
option 4. store your portfolio on iPad to show off to clients

Filter distorts the pic a bit too much... Try taking that shot with a bit more piano, and a bit less scene

This place is really weird, welcome aboard.

>I left the camera upstairs and im lazy as f*ck to get it
Well, laziness doesn't go well with anything creative. Facebook compress photos to rape level

>That's my first picture taken
>What you guys think?
You're showing a sign of good composition, there's a balance in the picture. The focusing on the piano keys give an interesting short field of view - which tell you did this right.
BUT
there's not much in focus, the power lines leads to the out of focus area. The logo + J.PFN... is readable but is too far to the left to be of interest.

It's an ok start, and this camera does look capable in low-light. Ask your roommate for advices. Don't let him fool you again for the payment. Take many pictures ,be curious and try things.

Thanks for the help :)
and thanks for such a nice welcome.

I'll try taking the picture with a little more piano, and will make the piano part more of interest.

Here's the original without the filter.

And no, I won't let me fool me with money again :)

You can add dust to taste. The X70 is also a feasible option although almost every review has found the lens worse than GR's.

Short answer: no.
Medium answer: Using some hair dye you get something that couples a single dye layer of the three or something. No full colour.
Long answer: You can mix up any chemical mixture if you have the ingredients. C41 dye couplers just happen to be difficult to obtain and very expensive for an average consumer. If you work in an appropriate industry or know someone who does or want to be prepper-tier self-sustainable you can buy and mix your own colour dev. Prohibitively expensive and difficult if weighing stuff or doing basic math scares you.

>>2903058
Кypвa do you have/did you make a DIY fixer tutorial?

I have your tutorial on B&W developer.

>>2903212
The active ingredient in fixer is usually sodium thiosulphate (aka hypo) or ammonium thiosulphate. If you want a nigger rigged recipe, ammonium thiosulphate is an ingredient of some fertilizers, although I'm not sure about the keeping properties of film fixed in a fertilizer.
