I'll start:

"3D pop"

"microcontrast"

"legendary lens"

"bokeh"

"Olympus M4/3 cameras are adequate for things that move around in anything other than broad daylight"

"DSLR's are obsolete"

"equivalent aperture"

"touchscreens are useful"

[Anything about Leica lenses being good for their sharpness.]

K, thx for letting me know

Well, I do talk about 3D pop and bokeh. I do have a rather vague notion of what "microcontrast" is, so I use "sharpness" instead.
Nice pictures/contribution to this board, faggot.

>"touchscreens are useful"
bought my gf a T3i because all the other subsequent iterations have touchscreen which is garbage imo. was i in the right?
>>
i have lots of medium format cameras and none of them WLFs can compare to the absolute 3D POP that the screen of my pentacon six has. but its one particular pentacon, the other one has a normal screen with a normal look, but the one that has the 3D, it fucking pops right out of the screen at your faggot face, i wish i could film a whole movie on it. id scan shit directly from that screen in fact.
>>

>things to say and lazily start a thread
why arent you shooting B&W anymore, dill? street all i see is color. last time i saw some B&W from you were those garbage election shots when you were feeling the bern.
>>
ITT from now on: Things bad photographers do

"gear whore"
"brand whore"
"make garbage threads about everything except photography solely to judge other faggots without ever posting anything meaningful"
>>
>>3143424
>"Olympus M4/3 cameras are adequate for things that move around in anything other than broad daylight"

There's this thing called "equivalent", you're not supposed to compare M4/3 with FF at the exact same setting.
>>
>>3143424
>i don't understand what equivalent aperture is
go shoot at f/1.8 with your mom camera to get that sikk bokeh

because f/1.8 is f/1.8 amirite
>>
"cool vibes man"

"____ visuals"

"instagrammer"

"social media influencer'
>>
>>3143447
>was i in the right?
no, touch is easier to operate
>>
>>3143523
in terms of luminance per square cm, yes it is
>>
>>3143536
sure
what about the results though, totally the same thing right, with same depth of field and everything
>>
what does microcontrast actually mean?
>>
>>3143564
it's when you got very little contrast
>>
>I don't see how film looks better than digital
>>
>>3143447

you dun fucked up

I just went from a T1i to the Canon M5. The touchscreen is a million times better. It's so much faster and easier to use than fumbling with the shitty d-pad.

"digital is better"

>>3143527
"nice tones"
"cinematic"

>>3143564
it's a bullshit term used by people who want photos to "pop" when they actually care about flare, contrast, and sharpness.

they say shit like "Unlike measurable resolution, micro-contrast is perceptible not measurable" and talk about smooth tones and fine detail, and how they have good taste in fine vintage lenses unlike shitty modern robolenses.

>>3143676

Anytime you have to change any setting that isn't mapped to a button or dial, or enter the menu system in the camera, the touchscreen is quicker and easier.

With the touchscreen you can tap to focus in video and live-view shooting instead of clicking a dpad 5-10 times to move between af points.

Plus if you have a beginner camera like one of the Canon Rebels, it doesn't have a multiple dials for easy exposure setting adjustments, and the touchscreen becomes invaluable compared to the dpad.

This is not a good pictures.

>>3143442
Just because you have an expensive camera doesnt mean you know about composition. That picture is shit. Try again faggot.

You're just a bad photographer, and no amount of 3-D pop will save you.

>>3144273
I see what you're saying but it looks sharp. I guess with IS it's an option

>actually taking the time to put your name into the EXIF of the camera

fuck off dave you fucking faggot
>>
>>3144242
Looks like a security camera still.
Sell your camera and take up painting-by-number.
>>
>>3144335

It is an actual setting in the camera menus.

Once you set it, every shot will have it in the exif.
>>
>>3144346
That's what I mean. Why would you bother to do that? Who fucking does that? It's like writing "TO-DO LIST" at the top of a to-do list.
>>
>>3144348
you've complained about him setting his name in his camera longer than it took him to set his name in his camera
>>
>>3144348

You don't go through the menu and check every setting when you get a new camera?
>>
>>3144335
If your pictures get stolen often, it's a useful feature. Takes like 1 minute in most cameras.

It's just a retard filter. An effective retard filter. Seen it in action with Moopco.

>>3144242
desu it's actually pretty good.

>>3143564
TLDR Micro contrast is another term for resolution.

Think of spatial frequency on resolution test charts where lower frequency charts (10 lp/mm) are used to measure contrast and higher frequency charts (60 lp/mm) are used to measure detail resolution/sharpness.

>>3143693
Especially lenses that provide strong 60 lp/mm mtfs provide high resolution in details. Rather weak 10-30 lp/mm mtf lenses are the ones with "soft bokeh". Rather strong 10-30 lp/mm mtfs result in "3d pop".
Optical correction has no effect on depth rendition. However, bokeh delusion has.

Like for every technical term, people add new words to their vocabulary and use it in a profoundly different sense.
>>
>>3144282
No you don't. Try taking close up pictures of annoyed strangers in their natural surroundings instead of posed pictures of friends in hand-picked places and lighting situations and see how well you do.
>>
>>3145628
>getting mad because he has no friends to shoot
>>
Get overly hung up and the rules that they can't see the photo itself or actually have their own opinion
>>
>>3144282
youll get there one day
