I've been trying to get into pinhole cameras lately. Does any anon here ever practiced solargraphy? Need some tips and tricks.
>>4313685Here's the one taken with the left one.Pictures were digitized with a regular DSLR with two lights pointing the photo paper in a 45 degree angle. Exposure checked with a gray paper beforehand.
>>4313347>>4313690How long did you expose these for? Judging by the sun rings I'd guess around 3-4 weeks, right? Also, did you develop them or just scanned them as they are?>>4313334I wonder where did those white marks come from
>>4313704About three weeks is correct, since the exposing time was tied to the duration of the course. I scanned them as they were, no need to develop solarographs.
>>4313705I know some people do develop solargraphs but if I recall correctly that's if you just use one of those semi-diy pinhole boxes for 20-30 seconds of exposure.
>>4313721Film photography is chemistry
Obviously I still use my MILC, but literally iphone cameras are fucking perfect for photography in general. You can even shoot RAW and have 3 native focal lengths to choose from (3 different lenses). If the old magnum photographers could choose between an iphone or their clunky 50s film cameras they would've chosen an iphone 9/10 times.
gimmicks like this exist now.Filters and anamorphic lenses to bolt onto your phone to make them look less like ass. They're good fun to play with.[EXIF data available.

>>4308076The only non-nigger manufacturer you're talking about are Xperia phones with their pro camera apps. They even have a two-stage button where a half-press triggers auto-focus (just like a real camera!). Otherwise, you can map the volume buttons but still no AF half-press.
>>4308104post-processing (typically mitigated by shooting in RAW) and cancerous ergonomics. You have most of the controls available to you on most camera apps these days but you have to use a touchscreen to adjust anything at all.Also, you look like a sad faggot taking creepshots when using a phone.
>>4312132>iPhone photo>Android UI visibleWhat
imo, either use your phone or go at least aps-cope/cuck/crippled/cringe/castrated, no point in going below that if you want kinda serious shots
>flimsy pieces of shit>make the camera bigger, doesn't fit into bags as well>gets in the way of shooting things close like bugs>looks goofy>if you don't need it but want to have it accessible then you put it on backwards and it gets in the way, affects the handling>if you don't need it and want to have it accessible and not use the method above you have to keep it somewhere and it's bulky and flimsy and could easily get broken in a bagDoes anyone even use these things?
>>4313597baste
i left the hood on my one lens that came with one. it's relatively small so i don't mind it too much. my other lenses lack hoods, which doesn't matter most of the time. only when it rains do i wish i had a hood
Only if I know I'm going to be shooting with the sun up high. Otherwise, no.
>>4313525I use them on most of my lenses.Incidentally, the only (two) lenses I've dropped didn't have hoods on them and probably would have been fine if they did.
>>4313525>Does anyone even use these things?I always use lens hoods. get a big enough bag and you won't have to reverse them for storage.

>>4312683There still is. Sooc jpeg: soft, zombie colorsProcessing foolji raws in any program: a wait, for sure. Why do they take so much longer to load?
>>4310716Fuji simply because they suck. Its a rare case where there is a such thing as bad gear and a pricy camera actually has worse IQ - such things have been unknown since the death of the canon DSLR. Fujifags seethe hard about nice gear too, like they think good image quality is a bad thing and you shouldnt even have the option. They are all aged 20-30 and do not know that most film is significantly higher resolutiom than an xt5 because all they ever saw was walmart 4x6s
>>4310716fuji for surelooking at brands in terms of general "why would I not use them" points, can think of the most for fuji, but i can also think of a lot of niche "why would I use them" pointsthey're really only ideal for a very specific set of niche preferences, and sub-optimal for mostother brands feel like their better general purpose options, or have 1-2 clear usage casesthe mass normie popularity (and inventory issues) probably gives a sour grape feel to people who might otherwise be ideal users, similar to leicadefinitely seems to inspire the most hate here for sure, its just a shame people cant be honest about the faults without exaggerating or relying on more dubious criticismspretty crazy how much the sentiments have changed though, they used to be seemingly universally liked, even herestill one of my favorite brands to use though, but most people are better off looking elsewhere

>>4310824very cool and well-framed photo anon. I like that every side of the house is captured with something around it (grass, trees or sky) to frame it. you could warm up the white balance a little though to remove the banding around the edges of the tree and the roofline. yeah, I had another look. the white balance is definitely too cold. oh yeah, I also remembered that you should have moved left (maintaining the same distance from the house) to simultaneously elongate the horizontal dimensions of the house and remove the awkward bit of road in the bottom right. still though, you’ve done well to identify this composition anon. well done.

Hello, I want to start taking pictures but I only have +-200$.Interested mostly in photography, but it would be nice if it could still shoot video not bad as an add-onI've seen some videos on YouTube where the GH2 (hacked) showed pretty good quality, is it worth getting it or are there any better choices?

Are FPV drones just a fad? I was going to make a thread on /g/ but I guess it belongs here since I'm planning making money with one. I know they're not very artistic but I'm thinking about commercial real state and agricultural shooting. Do they have a future in that?

>>4313330If you're foreign, shoot without a warning, call me paparazzi.
>>4313395That has potential to be a great bar. Work it out and put it on a moonman rap
>>4313415It's part of a Mr. Bond original: "Supa Nazi".Catchy as hell.
>>4312896Use at least 50mm lens (around 80mm is best) or you'll look like shit. If shooting with a phone, zoom in 2-3x since the normal lens is usually equivalent to 24 to 35mm range.If you don't have lights, do it if a cloudy day to get diffuse light. Sit or stand dead on towards light source (eg. window). Try around noon. Don't even think about shooting with artificial lights that are not studio lights or flashes (like household bulbs, especially CFLs or LEDs), it will look like shit.Or just don't be a cheap shit and pay $15 to a teenager at CVS to have it done semi-completely.
How is this such a burning question that warrants so much debate? Find a white or very light wall. Try to position a light source so that there isn’t a big shadow behind you.Take a selfie.If you need to make changes to dimensions or erase shadow or lighten up the wall to white, most basic photo editing software can do this easy.I haven’t done a US passport renewal yet, but most countries have switched or have digital forms with photo upload options, so you don’t even need to special print the photos anymore.

Ordered a telescope on eBay a few weeks ago and it was the first clear night in weeks last night. With no experience using telescopes or space photography, managed to capture this with my iPhone held up to the eyepiece - no tripod. Was really quite enjoyable setting up and trying to capture it and would like to do more of it. So, any recommendations for starting gear, tripods, applications, any information you could give basically would be greatly appreciated!!
>>4306644I think it's a light breeze fucking up OPs stabilization
>>4307518This, it looks blurry, and some parts are over-sharpened.
>>4306644I can tell you definitively that this is a shit image, but whether that's due to "ai slop" in your phone or just general overbaking denoising+sharpening applied I can't say.The ridiculous banding is what jumps out and screams "shit image, shit shit shit, bad bad!" but yes the "fine details" (there are none) are also shit here.I don't know what to say other than you must shoot RAW, and avoid proprietary "special"RAW formats and stick with regular RAWs.
>>4309798The fact he managed to line up the eyepiece and phones camera is mildly impressive IMO. Go try it sometime and see how quickly you loose your shit...

>>4313315>You need mechanical shutterWell then, problem fucking solved.Now what's the point of paying out the ass for a global shutter sony when1: It has the dynamic range of a micro four thirds camera, so bad sony has clear noise reduction cooked into their raws to make the SNR *LOOK* like its only as bad as APS-C (to be fair they are not the only one, canon does a similar thing with... literally every EOS R, usually at low ISOs but its every ISO on the R3, olympus apparently forces color noise reduction in raw and denoising and moire reduction is normally a baked in part of demosaicing xtrans)2: RED ALREADY HAS AN APS-C GLOBAL SHUTTER SENSOR WITH SEVERAL STOPS MORE DYNAMIC RANGE THAN THE BEST POSSIBLE FULL FRAME CAMERA YOU CAN BUY, FOR THE SAME PRICE, AND IT SHOOTS 16 BIT RAW (IS JAPAN EVEN FUCKING TRYING?)(hot takes ahead, some plane spotting autist might be mad, and some gearfag autist whose ego is based on racking up debt to buy an R3 might be madder)3: The readout of a mechanical shutter, or a MS-speed eshutter (Z8, R3) is already excessively fast for anything but specific motorsports, which is honestly a boring, soulless non-artistic waste of time of no more value than blurry phone snaps taken of the exact same thing and you should feel bad for being enough of an autistic bugman to want to photograph it with a $6000 camera.4: Anything over 10FPS is of 0 use for anything but PROFESSIONAL sports photography where things like the very moment a golf club hits a ball are valuable. Again this is a soulless endeavor. it is impossible for it to be art. you should feel bad for wanting to photograph this. This is the domain of engineers playing with high speed cameras that they would normally use for testing and research making an appearance on an informational youtube video/mythbusters or some shit, not "REAL" photographers (artists). Perhaps 12fps, but much faster and we're getting into the territory where strobes recycle times can't keep up.
