i predict this type of shit will age terribly. in fact it looks already corny.
>>3081424
whores earn tons of money too.
>>3081436
But they earn with their cameras not by sucking dicks.
>>3081444
It's not too different when you make shallow photography just to appeal to the majority.
Hi, I want to buy a camera compact enough to fit into my pocket but I don't want to compromise pictures so I want the biggest possible sensor (bigger is better, right?) and I want to be able to change lenses. What camera would you suggest?
I am new to photography BTW.

post on gear thread
idk how its possible to earn """tons of money""" through slowly being an IG landscape photographer considering you cant plug anyone and there's a sizable portion of followers that are just bots.
unless youre the few who either lives in variety or has the means to travel, youre no way going to sustain yourself solely on IG

But this is the general discussion thread. Asking for a camera is general discussion.
>>3081460
In GENERAL Sony Mirrorless. Ask on gear for the specifics and a debate. There
>>3081463
What Sony Mirrorless would you recommend? I have $2000 but I can ask for more.
>>3081475
I dont own a Sony. I literally just told you go to the appropriate thread where more invested, informed people will reply on how you will spend $2000
>>3081478
I see there is A7 and A9. What is the difference and what are those numbers and letters with all the A7 cameras? It's just so confusing, I'm new to this.
>>3081296
it's the millennial outdoors meme
it's overdone, trite, aspirational, commercial instagram bait
let's all go to iceland, walk up hills, and take pictures of our backs!!!!
>>3081487
What is wrong with Iceland?
>>3081487
it's pretty, cheap to visit, sort of a utopia, but on instagram it's a meme
>>3081459
B-but how why.......
What the actual fuck, Instagram is a fucking shitshow.
>>3081493
Better yet, you don't own your own photos on Instagram. I bet Pajeet already sold most of your shit already.
Aren't those what they are calling lifestyle snapshits? Either way if they are conning people to pay them for it, then more power to them.
>>3081460
just fucking kys faggot
>>3081296
I actually like the washed out high pass look, but it´s such a fucking hipster meme that i hate everyone who uses it
>>3081482
stop trolling and kys
>>3081736
Not a meme for Asian countries.
Okay, so I looked at the cameras and liked the A7rII, so I told my mom I want that.
Turns out my dad also looked at things and now I'm going to get the A9, with lenses. I'm writing this from a list, 70-200, 24-70, 85, 16-35.
What does GM and Zeiss mean with these lenses? Also what can I photograph with these lenses?
Thanks
>>3082041
Oh shit, mom said I can't get them until my 15th birthday next month. Hold me, /p/.
>>3082041
quit samefagging. we all know you're an official FUJIFILM X-Photographer
>>3082041
Yes amazing and quality photos with Sony
So what, is Instagram hiring these shills to document their travels through these idyllic locations using trite Lightroom presets, or are they simply using Instagram to pander their shit to the masses in order to make moola?
Or is it more like the video >>3081459 referenced in his post?
Whatever the case, if they can make a living from it and they enjoy what they do, then more power to them, I guess...
>>3082370
>So what, is Instagram hiring these shills
Nope, it's just another form of stock photography.
Microstock agencies are overflowing with this shit and they can be used to flog all kinds of 'Lifestyle' products. You can get 750 images for US$200 per month and splatter them across all your social media accounts and have thousands of bots 'like' them.
