Are there /homebrew/ photographers here? Let's have a thread about your shitty home made cameras, pee.

Is that a 135mm lens/shutter combo from a 3x5" folder by any chance?
Only thing I've homebrewed was parodinal. It is cheap and as good as rodinal for stand-development. Also "xpro" reversal film on ra4 CD-3 instead of e6 CD-2, but the end it was pretty much the same, just cheaper.
There's this camera (yasica 635) I've found left for garbage, its shutter would only cock at 1/60, lens axis was off center and scratched af. I've cleaned it a bit, done a workaround to get the lens less off center etc; it was good to shoot. The off center axis sometimes is fun to use. Pic related.
This pics were also shot with it:

idk if the meta data will be attached or not but they're all taken with a D3300 and a either a nikon 50mm f/1.4 or sigma 10-20mm
my first time in NYC, i wanted to walk around and get some candid shots but at the same time not just snapshits. i never usually take candids, either.
just gonna post some selects
I can't figure out how to get rid of this smudge, even after cleaning it. It's the dark line to the right. Anyone got an idea?
It's a hair on your sensor. You can blow it off with a static-free blower, or avoid shooting at small apertures like f/16 or lower, or just clone it out in three seconds in lightroom or photoshop.
> Dark line to the right.
That's a tree.
Okay /p/ lets play a game.
>Take the best photo you can of your keyboard and whatever else is on your desk
>Other anons post their shit and critique others
Could be fun. Could not. If this is stupid then just scroll past and let this die.
Lets try to keep the critiques limited to the photography process and not on the gear used or the subject. You can go to /g/ if you want to get autistic over somebody's mousepad.

It's 2 in the morning in the middle of the cold Montana winter and I'm high as fuck. Not gonna happen.
I'm going to Vietnam soon and am looking to get into photography again but the problem is i lost all my passion for photography when dslr's came along and film became to expensive (where i come from atleast).
So i'm looking for a dslr that feels like a 35mm film camera:
-prefer without screen
-manual focus
-all controls of slr
previous camera's are pentax ME and Nikon F3
I do realise they probably don't produce this type of camera now but i'm hoping they might have produced one when dslr's first came out to try to get people to transition over.
Try any of the Fuji X series. X-Pros or X-E's or X-T's. Maybe Olympus OM-D E's
Just buy any fucking dslr and don't look at the lcd retard.
What do you guys think of this? It's me and I took the photos myself

>What sort of feel does this give off?
Faggy.
ITT: More that just
>"it's good" "it sucks" "it affects spot metering" "use auto focus f4g"
I'm talking real descriptive pros and cons—mainly cons.
Have shot film since high school, using an SLR with a split- or multi-prism screen I rarely had an out-of-focus shot. I'm not exaggerating though: unless I'm nice and tight, they're almost 50/50 misses on the DSLR but were 10/90 misses with an old mechanical beast.
Manual focusing on a flat DSLR seems to be giving me a challenge. (yes, MF is my main workflow)
Is there something I'm not doing? I wear glasses, would a viewfinder magnifier be a better solution?
Also choice: focusingscreen dot com seems to be the only producer of split-image screens (Katzeye is retired). Are there any others out there?
>mfw Nikon FM focus screen in my 5D
>>2746482
"fits in" is not the same as "fits", retard.
Focusing screens have different thicknesses. The thickness of the ground glass dictates how much of out of focus areas will seem to be in focus on the ground glass.
Focusing screens that are common defaults in DSLRs only accurately show up to about f/2.8 of aperture. You could try a thinner screen before you go split circle. Such screens are less contrasty in general because more of light hits outside of it's plane of focus, but if you use fast lenses it compensates.
Gear Thread
If you have questions about a new camera, what lenses to buy and anything related to gear or wondering about getting into photography, post it in this thread.
Do not attempt to make a new thread for your new Rabal, broken glass and being new. You have been warned!
I repeat, ANYTHING GEAR RELATED goes in here!
And don't forget, be polite!

Hadn't bought anything new gear-wise in 2 years. Picked up a new body last month. Enjoying it so much I'm selling everything but 2 bodies (1 film, 1 digital) & 2 lenses (that work on both). Just feel so content about everything gear-wise. Pretty much only stuff I see myself getting for th next decade would be newer / better versions of the same stuff I own, but it's at the point where it's pretty cost-prohibitive to do so.
should i get a cmos or ccd or x-trans or foveon dslr
what are the pros and cons of each
are there photos of the same thing done with each somewhere
>>2744562
that's like the worst thing to base your purchase on
if you have to ask, the differences would be completely negligable for you
Enjoy. This is something that you have never seen.

I just got a roll of Kodachrome 40. After some research the conclusion is that there is not a single lab in this world that will develop it. I don't get it. Kodak won't do it and they're not producing any developer for the K14 process any more. So why won't they just make the process public so anyone can use it? I really can't understand the reasoning.
>>2745888
Son, shit just ain't that easy.
>>2745890
I know it's complicated as fuck. But they're not producing it and there are more than enough capable chemists out there.
