bridge cameras are shit, but if you're good, you can still take okay photos in good light, with a great subject
>>
>>2731562
You will need a bunch of film canisters for it. Also be careful not to expose the mirrors to direct sunlight.
It's an okay camera if you learn to properly use it.

So I got one of these Konstrucktor DIY film
cameras
Great little build, very excited to use it but I've only ever used a DSLR.
Any advice for a film novice.??
Also anyone have one of these cameras and whats your opinion or share some shots

I got one for christmas as well
It's a fun little toy
One problem I've had was that the film counter doesn't work properly and it seems to tear the sprocket holes.
Anyways I wouldn't use this for any serious shots, maybe at a party or something. Take fun pictures and then print them out and hand it to people the day after or something.
>>
>>2731548
They're great for decoration. Not for taking pictures. The point of the Konstruktor is to be entertaining when you're building it, not to actually be a functional camera.
Buy a cheap Zenit for $5 and have some fun shooting.

Why do we not have recurring technique discussion threads when we have gear threads and recent photo threads?
To start out, I am happy today because I managed to take a photo @ 1/15 shutter speed and 200mm focal length hand-held that wasn't just blurred out. Trying to improve the steadiness of my hand. The lens did have VR, but Nikon's only accounts for 3 stops... so it's way below the recommended minimum for that focal length. I found out that each lens has to be held differently to be stable enough for the VR to make any difference in a situation like that. This opens a door to a whole new realm of practicing my hand.
Now it's your turn. Let's discuss techniques, both for shooting and post-processing.

a good rule is 1/focal length as your handheld shutter speed )before lens stability comes into play)
so, a 100mm lens should be handheld at 1/100s shutter speed minimum, unless you're pretty steady. This is really helpful.
>>
>>2731238
That is true. What I am practicing now is my ability to take sharp still images below that limit hand-held, mostly without any movement in them. As you said, "unless you're pretty steady"... well, I want to become pretty steady.
I think it's a good kind of self-torture that also benefits me in times when I do have enough light to stay above them. Nothing worse than a shaky photographer.

The autism is strong in this one
Alright, im a 4 year vet who shoots with a 60d, some decent to good glass, i shoot people for newpapers and realty....
I have to over compensate on my 430ex flash with a gary fong diffuser to make up for the poor iso performance....
I need more iso so i can go lighter on the flash...
The 7d mark 2 and the 6d are the same price, Is a full frame sensor able to capture available natural light better then an apc?
I only have one l series lens and a lot of lenses that the 6d cant use so im leaning to the 7d mark 2 right now.... however, if full frame sensors are better and capture more accurately, should i go with a 6d then?

how hard is it to look it up yourself?
>>
Obviously the 6d is a better long term investment, significantly better in low light too.
>>
Sounds like you need to get yourself some fast prime glass, or learn to use your flash off camera. ISO performance should be a last resort fix, when comparing to benefits of more/different light setups, or wider apertures.
If you want to buy a new body for low light, then get the 6D. I can shoot mine at 25600 and it looks like a crop camera's 3200. 6400 on the 6D is as usable as 800 on most crop cameras.

you can't adapt a smaller flange back distance to a larger one. at least not without horrible lense lensing.

I want to do a documentary project on industry in my city. How does one get access to the locations and people I need? I feel like I'd just get laughed at if I called up companies asking for access to their plants for a personal photography project. I've thought about just driving down to the industrial area and taking photos from outside/talking to people, but I don't know how well that will work.
Very much inspired by Salgado's Workers and want to do a (much smaller) project in that vein.

How did Salgado get his fucking tones?
To answer your question OP, just ask the construction companies if you can be a visitor to for your "documentary project"
Construction sites get visitors all the time. You'd get a hard hat, you take your pictures, then you leave. nbd. Worst that happens is they say no. They may say no for a variety of reasons. But I doubt you'll get "laughed at" so stop being a scardey cat and just ask!
Or you can walk around and get close to street workers and take pics. Not a big deal. Dress like a tourist. If you're asian, even better

Boys, I'm buying a G7. I am going to be doing some video projects next year. Is the 14-42mm kit lens good enough for general tomfoolery until I save up for some GOAT crisp primes?
I mean, even the so-so image of the kit lens will be 10x better than the cheapo camcorder I have now, right?
Or should I get the body only and get a different zoom lens?

It's fine yeah, there's no point getting the 14-140 and the only constant aperture zooms are the 12-35 and the 12-40, which, whilst a he'll of a lot better are a fair whack more money
>>

>Is the 14-42mm kit lens good enough for general tomfoolery
Yes it is but don't expect any miracles from it. The 14-42 is a cheap kit lens which can be outperformed quite easily.
be sure to get that ultrasharp 20mm f1.7 pancake lens. It's a beast.

Help me /p/!
So I have been in this huge pickle on what new camera body to get and after watching all the different review videos and comparing specs, I am turning here for help.
So, I shoot a lot of model photography (Mostly in low light scenes) as well as a lot of low light photography overall, so everyone is pointing me to the Sony A7 series of cameras or various Cannon/Nikkon, now I also do a ton of sport video/ short filmaking and I am looking for a camera that does some decent slow motion/low light video as well (4k would be nice to have but not necessary)
So then people say Sony rx10 ii or A7s ii and I know those cameras are not as good for photography, I dont know if I have not luked enough but is there a sort of bridge camera that has very good photo/low light quality, but has very strong almost studio quality video.
Thanks anons <3

Crop mode video is on par with the a7s in low light but only goes up to 25,600 ISO.

I hadn't ordered the C-41 press kit in a few months and now it's in store pickup only which isn't feasible for me.
What are other people doing for home development now? I know Freestyle sells the Unicolor C-41 kit but I've never used it; anyone have experience with it? I'd like to avoid sending all my color film to a lab.

I'm in the same position as you are. I now use the Unicolor C-41 kit and I can't tell any difference between the two kits. The direction sheet that comes in the kit is the same for both kits.

Hi /p. I'm new to photography and unsure of what camera/lense to buy. I only have $300 to spend for one. Should I wait until I have more cash (that'll be a month from now), or if not could you show/recommend me some cheao DLSR's and lenses?

Pentax K-50 or Nikon D3x00 kit used might work, but whether you better wait depends on what you need.
Also, gear thread?
>>
Yeah, a gear thread definitely sounds like something to look for. And sure, this can also be a gear thread! Thanks for the help Anon!
>>
That depends on what you want to shoot, what you want out of your pictures. I had the same budget, for my needs I got myself a used 40d and a 50mm 1.8, but I don't need the high megapixels or video, or zoom, because my goal is to learn composition and storytelling. If your goals are different you may need to get something different
