D34 is fine if you're just taking photos. But if you want to take video, get the d33, since the d34 doesn't have an audio input.

dont want to make a new thread and my question fits the topic:

What focal lenses do you use for what type of portrait while keeping the person look real or the most flattering (no distortion like wide angle closeup)?
Eg. head only, head and chest, whole upper body, whole person, person with surrounding etc.

I'm kind of to big of a noob to see much of a difference when i stand a few meters away and zoom in. or is this how it works?

>>3124253
>google: im a retard and what is best focal length for portraits
of course i googled this but all that shows up is general stuff like 50mm or 85 or up to 1xx without telling what exactly to use them for. However theres a difference in look if i shoot 85mm head or 85 full body. And i want the one that lets someone look as "reallife" as possible.

If you got a link i'd appreciate this just as well.

I've only had one person confront me for taking photos, and it was while I was shooting a bridge with my wide-angle. I didn't even realize she was there until i looked at the pic in lightroom and her sour, ugly face was ruining my focal point.
I really think it's more about the photographer than the act of taking photographs when it comes to people getting creeped out. If you're some fat, greasy /fa/ freak then you're going to get people's white knight boners going. But since i'm a young, slightly effeminate dude with a nice face that dresses inconspicuously most people don't even notice I'm there, even when I'm taking shots like pic related. I've literally sat in the same spot taking pictures for upwards of ten minutes and nobody's given me more than a glance.
Sadly that doesn't do much to help you. I guess the best method to diffuse confrontation is to act genuinely confused, like you have no idea what they're confronting you about. If that doesn't work, just turn around and walk away. If they chase after you and try to get physical, call the cops. Then the story is "some nutjob attacked me while I was taking pictures of some flowers or some shit"

Kek then get a telephoto my man, why are you even asking why people are mad

Basically running off windows 8 and I am unable to create a new catalog and there is no list showing of a different catalog I can use, I've already looked at photos/Lightroom file to see a new .lcat file and still nothing.

>>3123921
Move catalog to a new location, restart computer.

I'll give that a shot and see

throw it in the trash and keep using your dslr

>>3123859
you fucked up.
Throw it away/sell it, use your DSLR... and this is coming from a film-only fag.

If anything use either Nikon's F series of SLRs, Canon's F-1, A-1, AE-1, or FTb. And for Olympus stick to the OM-X line.

>>3123859
take pictures with it, dipshit
what the fuck were you expecting

>>3123705
depends on your moral

that being said just do what looks good, cheap usage of common effects almost always will look terrible though.

>>3123705
Good editing is invisible. Everyone edits their shit, only retards make it obvious.

If you're not a photojournalist, morality doesn't even enter the discussion. You're doing this as a hobby, do what gives you the most pleasure. If you're doing this for the acceptance of angry people on a sri lankan basket weaving mailing list, you're doing it for the wrong reasons.

>>3123724
does it even enter the discussion for photojournalists though? as long as the edits aren't deceiving people (like shopping in things that arent really there) then i don't think effects are really a moral decision for them. it's not like it's being dishonest to portray an event as more visually polished than it actually was

EOS M1 user here.

Bought it with the 22mm, cheap and new. I don't know what Canon's M-masterplan is, but the system is regular APS-C Canon quality and it works just fine.

Unfortunately, the 22mm is the only decent M lens IMO. Needs more primes.

>>3123392
This is the first time I've ever heard of anyone disliking the Fuji dials. I thought they were nice and tactile. Each click fell into place.

>>3123429

Dials themselves are okay, their placement sucks though.

*points and laughs*

should have left it

(Not a photographer) what's wrong with it? I think it looks p cool anon.
