Well, yeah. Some of you may be hearing about our situation here. Protests against the government of Mrs. Rousseff and the Workers' Party continue, as our economy deteriorates and Petrobras' scandal involving major politicians from most parties is unfolded. We also had some pro-government protests, but the fact* is the majority of brazilians want the end of Mrs. Rousseff government. On March 13th, Brazil saw the biggest protest in its history, with more than 3 million people** attending the movement across the country -- protests against the government. I went to the biggest one, in São Paulo, but unfortunately I haven't many photos from that day because of... reasons. Anyway, protests are becoming common here as we approach the conclusion of all this, so here's something from what I've been doing in the last weeks...
(I'm afraid this first one is the best, I guess, so I'm sorry. Also, as always, sorry for my bad english).
*This statement is supported by any survey here without big percentages variation, although some institutes that do these surveys are regard as biased.
**Numbers from our police forces. Organizers speak of higher numbers.

Delta 400 is also Ilford.
And I think it's a better film personally. Cleaner and smallerfeeling grain. Lovely mid-tones.
I tend to shoot HP5 more because I can get it cheaper but I definitely like Delta 400 better of the two.

Taking photos on film and scanning them therafter is like writing texts on a typewriter, scanning the paper sheets and applying OCR on it. Film does not look better. You can create any look you want with the digital files, so why not use the best available input source? And this is the raw file from a digital camera.

This is the thread for all of your stupid film questions, and to post your film snapshits without flushing them down the RPToilet.
It's OK to ask about film gear in this thread.
Starting a new one because OP of the other one running at the moment is a moron, and doesn't appreciate the need for an on topic OP image and text to generate engagement.

Yes definitely. It has taken a long time but you slowly learn useful things.
Examples? Probably when I ask for a portfolio review or critique on a large set of images. Someone good sometimes shows up and opens your eyes to some pretty serious problems
I rarely if ever get inspired by any pictures on here but some of the advice is pretty solid
>>
>>2803468
Nobody knows what the fuck they are talking about
>>
I've learned that I should throw my camera in the trash. That I should delete all photos I've ever taken. That I should NEVER use a larger format just because I can. That I should just die in a fire. That a photo divided at the horizon with all white on the top and all black on the bottom is "MUH ART", and that 3 or so members of /p/ are the final arbiters on whether or not a photo is interesting.

I am new to photography.
I want my male subjects to appear as handsome as possible, so AT LEAST not uglier than they are in real life, and if possible, make them look even better than IRL. I know that Photoshop is important too, but this thread is strictly regarding taking the picture itself.
I saw a video on YouTube with a guy advising to slightly poke your head out to accentuate the jaw line. Seems like a good trick, makes a noticeable difference.
Also, something VERY important I learned, is that it's important to have a high focal length:
http://gizmodo.com/5857279/this-is-how-lenses-beautify-or-uglify-your-pretty-face
It seems that 300mm would be even better than 135mm for males (even if, as far as I know, 135mm is more "realistic"), because a wider face is considered more masculine than a narrow face. (Yeah I know, the picture I posted features a female)
I heard that image sensor format is also important, but is it really important for taking pictures of a face? If so, why? And is it more important or less important than focal length?
What else would help to make my subjects appear more handsome?
Do you have suggestions for specific cameras/lenses under 1000$ with a focal length of 300?
Every tip and trick would be helpful!
Thanks!

>>2803330
get a 70mm-200mm; its fine
300mm wont make a difference since youre not taking straight on front head shots and will create a lot of distance between you and the subject
and lol 135mm is not a realistic focal length; ideal yeah
>>
>>2803330
300mm may be "too flat" for a head shot, but the larger issue with using lenses that long is that you have to be so far away from the subject that you struggle with finding a room to work in, and you also lose a lot of your ability to connect with your model because you're so far away.
General practice puts you around 15 feet from your subject for an optimum rendering of their face. At that distance, for full body shots, you'll be at about 85mm on a full frame camera (55mm on APS-C) and for headshots, you'll be around 135mm (90mm on APS-C)
Some people find that they prefer the bit of intimacy and "natural distortion" that comes with being a bit closer. Some people do the same work with a 50 and an 85. Some people say fuck it and go for a 35mm. It's really down to your taste, the look you want, and the face in question. My face, for instance, looks fairly nice when shot from relatively close. My wife's, however, looks most pleasing when shot zoomed in from across the room.
More important than lens, however, will be your light (direction and quality) your wardrobe/styling, light makeup, and processing abilities. Primarily light though. Each face will respond differently to different types of light, so you have to learn to match your light to the shape of the face, and to the look you're going for.

Pretty new here
Do you guys take a camera with you everywhere? Lately I've been trying to make an effort to give a period of time to a session where I can practice taking photos but sometimes I find something I'd love to take a photo of and I don't have my camera on me
Do you always carry a camera on you? Is it weird if you're always walking around with a dslr around your neck?

I've started doing this a lot more. I now take a compact 35mm film body with me everywhere and my digital on a over the shoulder strap. The only time I don't take it with me is if I'm doing my daily trip to the shops.
It's not weird at all.
