Because why would you need that?

>>2842293

Because it's cheaper to use ND

Dynamic range and color bit depth tend to go hand in hand with lower iso.

Why did you allow the narrow depth of field? My eye wants to look at the bottom car in the middle and it's almost entirely out of focus. The focus point seems to be the maroon car in the bottom right.

They'll be fine, there's nothing you can do either way. The 1600 MIGHT have some fogging but I can't imagine a train station is using a scanner as strong as the ones in airports

the train station was Gare du Nord in Paris

i didnt even count on them having an x-ray for the train, but i suppose with the recent dangers it makes sense...

i'm mostly worried about the CineStill because its repackaged motion picture film (Vision 500T) and its SO expensive

What... the... fuck... is that image? The "after" shot looks like a fucking cartoon. Jesus.

Anyways, do some youtube searching for professional retouching. Watch the long ones (like 20 minutes or more) and you'll learn a LOT.

>>2847565
The frequency separation part was kinda informative if you haven't seen that done before, but holy shit does she rape the portrait in part II.

Chill guys, the "after" is actually just CGI. It's all a joke.
I mean who the hell would believe that's even a picture.

If you want to achieve greatness, stop asking for permission.

Don't break anything to gain entry into an "abandoned" area (most of these places aren't actually abandoned, by the way).

If you break something for entry, at least in America, you go from a misdemeanor of trespassing to felony breaking and entering. One is a "get out of here, you little scamp", the other is "you're going to do jail time and fuck up your life."

Really, though, just skip the whole urban exploration phase anyway. It's overplayed, lame and dangerous. Literally all stupid dickhead 20 year old males do it.

Oh come on anon, don't be so old and bitter, urbex photos, albeit thematically oversaturated nowadays, still offer a glimpse at something out of the ordinary, often unseen and outside of cliché locations in big cities there's a whole lot of obscure or unexplored places that might offer interesting sights and photos.
Although, admittedly, most contain white city kid's first contact with outside world-themed trash or furniture snapshits. Then again we get jST threads.

The riskiest aspect of urbex is bringing an expensive wide angle lens or lowlight-capable dslr to a potential hobo den/junkie hangout. Everything else is a contextual mix of luck, situational awareness and common fucking sense.

>I'm gonna light his short side with a hard rim light.

Ayyy

How sexual do you want it? I think that getting all oiled up would make it more sexual which may be fine if that's what you want, but if you're trying to do for example more of a marble sculpture type of look then I would probably try hard lighting but dry skin.

Also personally I can just imagine it being pretty uncomfortable photographing a nude man, probably more so than working with nude women. So I guess try not to make it too uncomfortable for both of you.

self bump

Justified. I do that all the time.
If for some reason they HAVE to be in, that's another question, but if they were just random guests... fuck 'em.

whatever happens though, if anyone notices, lie. The pictures were unflattering and you decided to not publish them.

If you like getting paid it would seem pertinent to keep your customers happy.

>I’m interested in studying, what level of experience should I have?
Keep in mind that all of this only be applied to the University I go to. The procedures or experiences may vary a lot in the university you apply.

Photography experience is certainly expected. Studying photography is no evening class on how to operate a camera. So you need to know how to work with a digital and analog camera (35mm).
You also need to be able to take meaningful and well composed pictures. Most of the stuff in the RPT would’t make the cut, your holiday pictures won’t make the cut and your cat pictures won’t make it either. It is expected that you know now to work in a series, single pictures rarely work (this is something /p/ is particularly bad in).

>which University should I choose?
I don’t know, do your research and do a lot of it. The bad name studying photography came from bad places and bad people. Art school is always greeted with smiles because everything calls itself art school to get as much money from hipsters as possible.
Find out the big names in your country and don’t settle with less. If you are afraid that you aren’t good enough for that place, you probably aren’t so go out and practice.
A degree from an obscure place won’t gain you anything. Do it right and choose the best.
Getting in contact with people that study there is a great way if you can get over your social anxiety. You can also take a look at the bachelor works of the universities. If you only see shit then don’t apply. Look for graduates and follow their work, if you notice that a lot of successful guys studied at a certain university, you should take a look at that place. Go though the list of teaching staff and look at their work. Stay away if they are on evening class level shooting weddings and look for the ones with renowned professionals.
You can also look out for the events on campus. I’ve seen universities that don’t support their students at all, others give them time and resources to exhibit their work and push them. They invite famos photographers for lectures and workshops, portfolio reviews or exhibitions on campus.
Another pro tip is to look for a university with other creative study paths. You don’t want to be surrounded by business and law people all day. More of that later ..

>What’s the application process like?

To ensure a particular level of skill and experience you have to apply with pictures rather than grades. You have to have a portfolio of around 20-25 pictures, so around 5 series. In addition to that you will get a homework from most of the universities I know. You’ll get one word and have to bring a series in your application based around that word (for example: the word was „home“ for me. Now you don’t necessarily have to take pictures of your home, but work around the word and create something that makes sense).
If you have your portfolio and homework printed, that is professionally printed, you write a short explanation for each of your series and think of a name and then you can go to the university on the day they told you after you applied.
You’ll spend all day sitting there with your competition until you are up for review. You’ll hand your stuff in and the photography staff will have a look at it, eventually ask you some questions about you and your work and then it’s waiting time again.
The next part differs a lot from place to place, I know of three types in my country:
>you pack your stuff and leave
That’s it. You can go home and wait weeks for the results, you’ll receive a letter with your grade and can enter round 2.

>but anon these photos show nothing interesting

Post a nice landscape and /p/ will either love it, or argue about split toning, ETTR, or lens distortion/bad processing.
Most of them are not able to get photos as a coherent series and have strange opinions on what a photo is supposed to look like.

bump for answers

>I shoot in auto
>and get kinda shitty quality
may these two things be correlated?
>although it's 1080p24fps.
do you do any kind of color correction, noise reduction and so on?

I have no clue what camera he's using but from that still his setup includes very good lighting

If you had lightning that good your videos would likely be much better, and if you want to have more possibilities in post use magic lantern

in any case, use the video thread

>>2845970
Much more important than his camera will be the lighting, the lens, the settings, and processing.

>>2845588
Thanks for the breaking news. Why does it concern you what other people spend their money on?

>>2845592
Fuck you, get out you potato photo buying faggot

The Irish will do anything for a single potato

>>2845549
Megapickels shoots with the R I C O H G R which has a fixed lens. But you should photograph both camps.

>>2845559
What do you mean both camps? Like photograph the Trump Supporters and the ones on the Bernie Gurney?

>>2845561
Yeah, it would be cool to see the Trump and Bernie people. Good luck anon.
