Directional glowy warm light. Scene containing cozy inviting environment. Process for warmth and softness (Not crazy sharp, raised black levels, emphasis on warmer colors)
To create comfy you first have to be comfy with yourself, seito.
>>2838890
How does one efficiently emphasize warm colours? increase their saturation/lowering cold saturation? Change up the hue for the warmer and colder colours?
Do different lenses have different f-stops for peak performance?
I know that f/8 to f/11 usually gives the best results.. But I want to know EXACTLY what f-stop each of my lens gives peak performance at.
Like my 14-24mm what f-stop would give me the absolute best results from this lens? Shooting on FF, is there any way to find this out without pixel peeping?
And I know that sounds stupid that I want to find the peak performance but don't want to pixel peep but I just don't want to spend the time trying to find out.
No, all lenses are exactly the same.
If sounds stupid because it is stupid. You're stupid.
you should just test your own lens

Curious, anyone know where I can get more of these kind of wallpapers? These being things like, vintage scenery I guess?
go make them
What makes that photo vintage?
>>2838580
Modern road markings with that reflecting things melded into asphalt, of course.
But something tells me he talking about hipster film look(that is good in this case).
One can achieve this by using VSCO powers, or lurking around in depth of hipsters VSCO related communities.
I took this. How do I into composition? Any books that have good techniques? Was thinking of only using a smartphone for awhile so I focus on composition alone.

Try doing a long exposure later in the day so you get better lighting. I like this spot though, update me if you take my advice
>>2838540
I want to know this too
Composition is ridiculously overemphasized and a lot of beginners treat it like some magic formula that will make their pictures better.
Find interesting subjects or scenes. That should be your main emphasis. Don't put them in the center unless it looks better in the center. Strong diagonals are cool, wide angles help with that. Use layers to create interest (foreground, middle ground, background). Compose with your feet and not your lens or arms. Learn how perspective works and how to see it.
Above all, don't treat composition like the most important thing in the photograph. It should serve the photograph, not be the photograph.
Hi /p/
Is there anyone who could zoom/edit this photo to see what the license plate numbers are? Simply zooming on it is not enough to clearly see the numbers but maybe someone who's good at editing could make them out?
This is very important for me.
UR GETTING KEKED, M8.
>>2838126
Contact CSI Miami. They have the ability to zoom and enhance.
>>2838126
Using state-of-the-art enhancement software I can clearly see that the plate reads: OPISAFAG. It must be one of those personalized plates.
How long till Canikon go mirrorless seriously and make everyone who sold their Canikon gear to buy inferior products feel like a bunch of assholes?
>>2837975
why dont you want a mirror?
>>2837975
But Canikon has mirrorless cameras.
>>2837975
How long till any Canon ILC finally has at least dynamic range of recent cameras with 1" sensor?
How long till Nikanon start using Dual IS in their objectives and cameras?
How long till Nikon stops mangling RAW files to make them unacceptable for astrographers?
How long till Canon stops drifting EF specs so that older objectives do not stop working with newer cameras?
How long till Nikanon use/make at least one APS-C or larger sensor with full readout?
How long till Nikon finally has lightweight pancake objective with autofocus?
How long till Nikon finally starts making oficially weather sealed objectives?
Bring your crap to gear thread fag.
Hey have any of you ever built a large format camera? I've built a monorail 4x5 camera, and I can't see anything in the back of the camera, even when the shutter is held open. Maybe it's because I bought a really cheap ground glass? Anyone have any experience with large format cameras?
>>2837769
Are you under a cape? Because you probably won't see shit unless you put a jacket or something over you...
>>2837779
Yeah I tried that. Still can't see any semblance of an image tho
>inb4 lens set to f/64
Have anyone of yall ever shot a funeral? I was asked by the family of a close friend to shoot the photos, i honestly didnt want to.. i was close to him and idk, but yea, you thoughts experiences?
>>2837647
Pictures of grieving people is never a good idea seems to me
>>2837665
I thought the same, I mean the are amazing photos, RAW emotion... but i just feltl like when i did it, i was invading their personal space, you know? and people maybe looking at me and thinking, "why the fuck is he taking photos right now!?, but i know in the end, years from now, they will be glad they told me to take those photos.. idk... like i said its my first ever funeral PERIOD, not just shooting, but being present at a funeral period... it was hard
Just say NOPE!
I think this is disrespectfully to deceased person, and to grieving people as well.
Does nikon plan to replace the 14-24mm at any point? It seems like its about damn time they brought out a new superior superwide.
Or should I just give in and buy the Tamron 15-30mm 2.8? It seems to have very solid reviews, and dat VC.
You'll see a release like a 14-24 once every 10-15 years. It's a god-tier lens and one of the best on the market, so why would you want a replacement?
>>2837586
>You'll see a release like a 14-24 once every 10-15 years.
Well it came out nine years ago so... soon then?

Who knows? Probably not?
when will you come to terms with the fact that you are not miroslav tichy?
> MIROSLAV TICHY HAS BECOME FAMOUS in spite of his need for privacy. Born in 1926 in what is now the Czech Republic, Tichy studied painting at the Academy of Art in Prague until the Communist takeover in April 1945. Arrested for being “odd,” therefor subversive, Tichy spent many years in jails and prisons, until he was released in the 1970s. Upon his release, he wandered his small town in rags, pursuing his occupation as an artist photographing the female form in the streets. He made his cameras from tin cans, childrens spectacle lens and other junk he found on the street. He would return home each day to make prints on equally primitive equipment, making only one print from the negative he selected. He stole intimate glimpses of his subjects through windows and the fences of swimming pools as well as in the streets, sometimes finding himself in trouble with the police.

About lighting set-ups, optimal lighting for certian styles of photography or film, the terminology, and the styles
And a thread to ask questions
Such as mine:
pretty new to photography still. Recently got into it on the begging of my Cosplaying GF
I've fallen deeply in love with the hobby, my Partner (fellow new photographer) and I have decided to set up a studio in his shed, a fairly large space with plenty of above and side natural light thanks to skylights and windows near the backdrop areas.
We would like to invest in a light set-up that doesnt rely on the natural light (for green-screen backdrops that we need evenly lit, and later day shoots) what should we start with? Most of our pictures are cosplayers, portraits with small props and set pieces
Also, slightly less urgent note, how do you do evening outdoor photography with well lit subjects?
>>2837082
Oh, there are a lot of ways.
The easy options are *very big* strip lights and octaboxes together with radio triggered strobes. Godox has them fairly inexpensively, but they're going to be at their limits for groups - group shots and the ability to place lights in more distance is why you might get a huge Bowens octagon. That said, you probably don't want to spend so much right now, so... Godox or DiY it is?
You could also use YN strobes as the actual lights.
That said, you could also pick a smaller plain white room and bounce the light off the walls or such.
> how do you do evening outdoor photography with well lit subjects?
Honestly, I'd start with a single portable off-camera strobe, a radio trigger, and a human-sized reflector board on the other side so the contrast doesn't get too extreme.
Obviously having a strip light or big octabox is more fancy, but they're annoying to use outdoors due to wind and so on.
So my local photo shop is selling a used nikon sb-25 for about $40. I've been thinking about getting an external flash for a while and might go ahead and spring for it. I know it won't have TTL metering but can still do manual.
Is this a bad idea? Should I just save up for a more modern model or will it be okay?
>collegepracticefag
No one can explain me how to use that external flash, everyone is asking for perfect pics.
>shooting some political bullshit, indoors.
>get faces red or underexposed
>change settings on flash
>switch angles
>FFS HOW DO GET THIS SHIT RIGHT ?
So, my setup is canon 400D+tamron 18-200mm+canon flash(cant remeber wich model is it, cuz it aint mine). As a photographer, can i go anywhere i want? And what setting should i use to get best results ? Some tips n shit would be nice.
So i recently started taking some pictures, some are better than others, some are utter shit but let's get to the point.
Is making an instagram account a good thing for a beginner photographer?
How do you go on about promoting it and stuff like that

Well, I'm glad we've got the utter shit out the way.
On Instagram, you need to focus on your tagging mainly. That's the trick to it. I use Instagram for my lower tier photos, stuff that is just nice. I also keep a 500px account for my best work, aggressively trimmed to keep a particular style going.

do you think that pic is utter shit, or what?
Also thanks m8

Yeah, it's okay though. As a beginner most of your stuff will be utter shit
