fuck right off

ok

So what, there is nothing stoping you. maybe your vision brings something new to the table

>>2725074
this isnt your blog

what was your idea

>>2725074
Stop being a softcock and do it. Just because the idea is the same doesn't mean the execution will be the same as well. The photographer / artist brings as much to the project as the idea does. Likely yours will be entirely different by the time it's done.

What's the idea?

>If I went to thailand would shit be really cheap
No, dummy. Companies manufacture in foreign countries so they can make bigger profits not pass savings along to the consumer.

>>2724883
is wrong,

People travel to Hong Kong to buy cameras and film cause of the price difference.
There were duty free store in the China airports I went to and as well as in Thailand, with tons and tons and tons of lenses and bodies.

Thailand's MBK mall has a floor dedicated to electronics, and the deals there are far better than in America.

>>2724890
Fuck off.

There are TWO serious camera shops in MBK one on the ground floor and one on the 3rd or 4th (whatever level you arrive at when you enter from the BTS). They are both owned by the same company. All the other 'Electronics' are mostly mobile phones and games.

In Hong Kong the prices are roughly consistent with international prices. PLUS in both places you will only get local warranty.

In both places you can get cheap Chinese made accessories but don't expect to save on your Sorry, Fudji or Canikon shit.

Duty free shops are the worst places on the planet to buy ANY kind of electronics.

Take it to the gear thread shithead.

Sounds pretty accurate.

My God what a load of horse-shit. You know what makes a good photo? The fucking photo. You'll either like it or you fucking won't and you'll know it when you see it.
I'm so tired of the "but it's aaaaart" types pushing this storytelling bullshit. You know who makes up the story? THE VIEWER. It's all in the viewer's fucking head. You know why? because it's a picture and not a book. It doesn't have words in it that can TELL a story.
Controlling lighting and composition to get the image you want is real. This "fantastical mystery shocking" shit is limp-wristed psuedo-art bullshit and you're a moron if you believe it

>>2724659
I divide photos into two groups.

Documentation/Evidence and Art


Angry Photog is all about the art aspect of photography.

Yongnuo flashes through various modifiers.

Currently saving up for 2 Einsteins with a para and some softboxes.

2*vivitar 285hv.
One flash that I can't remember what it is. Better (much better) than the shitty vivitars.
2*elinchrom somethingsomething. Maybe 250 something?
Underwater 4*nikonos SB-105 and one Ikelite which again can't remember the model for triggering. When I'm ofcameraflashing underwater.

personal server space.
free shit is just not good enough.

Flickr?

>>2724597
I really like the functionality of "Cloud" services. I tried OwnCloud on my server, but it was beyond shit for photos.

What's your setup? A custom gallery?

>What does /p/ think of it?

I think they ought to get you a good pair of reading glasses so you could see that these types of questions are suitable for GEAR THREADS.

How is the support for this thing? How are the updates? I find it a beautiful device and considered it, but found it too expensive. The new price seems a lot more reasonable. However, the lens 'bump' is scary. I think the lens is very unprotected in most non-photographing situations.

Spend the $450 and get a proper camera

What? What is this thread about exactly?

He's shit/trollposting. Simply hide/filter

>>2724268
If you can afford a around five thousand USD, get a D4S, A7R II or 1D X. And a set of new lenses.

The best cameras are easiest to get good pictures with.

That said, maybe you can't / don't want to afford this. Most of /p/ doesn't. So what's your budget like? Can you get $1k at least? And what subjects / situations do you want to shoot most?

Please re-ask in gear thread with this information.

/thread.

Recently bought a Nikon D3200. Spectacular camera. Absolutly no regrets. Would reccomend and if you have a little more money to spare definitly go with a D3300. Higher ISO and Panoramic. If money isnt a concern D5500. Would highly reccomend one. I personally wouldnt stress it too much. Pretty much any DSLR you buy these days will be outstanding in quality. (Wouldnt buy a Canon T5 though).

hostels? look for backpacking tourists? I'm sure they'd love to be in more pictures showing off how hip they are and free to be in another country.

Do yourself a favor and buy a grad. ND filter
