Hi there /p/eople,
the house I'm moving to has an addictional bathroom (9x5ft) so I'm planning to set it up as a darkroom; it has a washing machine (top right) and a radiator under the window (right).
What would be the best way to organize it, in your opinion?
>>2731140
Are you planning on making enlargments? Or just developing negatives?
>>2731140
What is your bathroom addicted to?
>>2731140
That's fucking great you're gonna have a darkroom!
I would keep shit away from that radiator tho.
Mine is the nikkor MF 35-70mm.
It came with a working nikon F3 that I got for free.
I mounted it on a D7000 and the image sucks.
My 35mm 1.8g rapes it in IQ.
>>2727944
That's cause it's actually a lens made by Cosina
i haven't used many, none of them are that bad
the least good one is the nikkor 50mm 1.8G which has some distortion, is cheaply built and overpriced. should've gotten a 50 1.8D
fast CCTV lens via c mount adapter.
Most hipster camera. Not looking to buy one juts wondering.
>>2726505
I have a Nikon Df, it is pretty hip though I never bought that shitty retro 50mm 1.8
Also one of the most underrated cameras on the market.
I just got myself a Yashica Mat (the original one) and a Nikkormat FT2. I had to buy my xmas presents for myself since I can't trust friends or family to get what I want (._. )
The Olympus XA takes the cake.
A pocket-size 35mm rangefinder with an very sharp Zuiko 35mm f/2.8 lens.
Yet it can only shoot aperture priority and has an extensive selection of accessories: two flashes.
Eric Kim is a monumental faggot.

Let's talk careers in photography. How the hell do you become one of the people who gets access to shooting photos and people like this??
>>2733314
>thug
is being a "thug" something acceptable nowadays? like socially desirable? what a time to be alive.
>>2733316
Time to give way to us young whippersnappers.
Now, about my question...?
Is that Antonio Banderas, Wooly Willy, and Stephen Hawking?
Is abandoned structure photography completely overdone? I have a lot of abandoned homes photographed, but I'm leary about posting any of it online because I think it might be cliche at this point.
A lot of instagrammers like "Tonydetroit" made urbex mainstream, and then it seemed to become oversaturated from there.

Everything is completely overdone.
>>2732906
So if everything is overdone, then nothing is more overdone than anything else?
I personally enjoy some minimalism photography, and am sometimes surprised how a minimalist image can pop out at me. I also enjoy the fuck out of ALL landscape photography. I don't care if it's the Teton mountains or a flat field.
I don't think it's the subject so much as the execution that is cliche. And that applies to any subject matter. You generally find that urbex seems to have crushed blacks and over-saturated colours, street is, more often,than not, black and white and slightly out of focus while landscape is shot with the widest fucking lenses money can buy.
I think the reason for this is because so many people go on forums like /p/ and plebbit and ask questions like "I want to try my hand at _____ (insert genre), what lens shall I buy?" They then do what the loudest echo in the chamber tells them to do and everyone ends up following each other like sheep.
So, do it but try something different.

Step your game up and take more photos than this doll this coming year, /p/. Happy New Years.

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!
Previous thread: >>2729142
Nikon Df purchaser from the other thread.
So, where is my best bet to get this camera? Considerably I'm trying to keep my budget as low as possible; although GadgetCircuit is fucking sketchy as shit.
Thinking about Adorama, just ordering body and buying a separate lens.
What lens should I get? (400~600 Range)
>>2731793
Why on earth would you buy one? There is literally nothing in favor for it. Just buy a poster of it and hang it on your wall if you just want to look at it.
>>2731794
D4 Sensor in a smaller, lighter, cheaper body.
Also because I want to.
I resized these photos to 1000p, i need some criticism on my work.

Its just a photo of a flower. Thats all.
If your getting into photography 2 things which will help you in developing skills.
Just dont do flower macros, even good ones.
Dont get into HDR, when you discover what HDR is stop there and go and learn a technique thats actually worthwhile.
Buy a light meter, buy a 5 in 1 reflector. Youre welcome.
The difference between APS-C/APS-H and 35mm is negligible. A 35mm digital sensor is great if you want to use lenses at a particular focal length. That's about it.
All the discussion about depth of field, noise, etc, is bullshit. No one passes double blind tests when trying to differentiate between a crop and 'FF' sensor.
Go an look into MF digital or LF film and you'll start to see how utterly pointless the APS-C/FF debate is. It's at MF and above that size starts to really matter. But then you have the issue of an expensive huge sensor/piece of film which is the reason 35mm and below exists.
35mm/APS-H/APS-C are just arbitrary sizes of crop sensors that will fit into small cameras and they all do approximately the same thing. Calling 35mm 'full frame' is monumentally stupid. 35mm is a fucking crop sensor.
>>2732533
don´t worry bro,
try different sensors and use the one that works best!

35mm is called 'full-frame' by definition, not a by society's choice. 50 1.8 is a 50mm cheap buy on a full-frame. It's not a 50mm on a crop. For that you need a 35.
Now, stop fucking shit positing on /p/

please resize your photos to 1000px before posting. Nobody will bother to click on them when they are 5000 pixels wide.
Color checkers. Worth it? Or gear whore shit. Does Dan Winters use one?
>>2732965
Depends on what you're doing.
>>2732970
portraits and street. of course, i don't expect to toss the card at passerbys. although, that might be interesting.
>>2732972
it's only useful if your image will be printed, by a real lab, with a printer profile they can send you, processed on a carefully calibrated screen, taken on a camera profiled perfectly.
For daily shit posted online, or printed at walgreens, you're wasting your time and money.
what are a few examples of great cameras with filters for beginners that dont require much screwing around?
or good very cheap cameras in general
>>2732939
your phone. delete thread and use gear thread thankyou.
>>2732941
This. You're probably already carrying around a decent camera with you
I just did this. Is it good?
I think i like it, but this is first time i've ever did such 'heavy' postprocessing and i feel kinda shy about that.
