any anon's do pet photography? I'm just starting to shift into it from doing wildlife and I'm struggling with learning how to work with artificial light and smaller spaces, I invested in a speedlight which has been a huge boon.

Thread Question: What did you get away with?

Here's one I got of a bird. My first thread here so I plan to dump a few of various subjects. Haven't done any editing on these so they aren't quite what they could be, but let me know what you think.

Shameless edition.
Last thread: >>4457780

Been digging around online trying to figure out how to get that K64 look (big, punchy, saturated, picrel), but found basically nothing. Everyone either goes for K25 or just completely misses the saturation.

Not trying to do a perfect emulation or anything, I just want those insane saturated skin tones and deep blues, but every time I try, the edit falls apart. Feels like Lr/Ps just can’t push it far enough, like the digital files don’t have the room. Which makes no sense, since I’ve got a gallery full of scanned film that pulls it off.

Anyone here actually manage to get close? Or is it just a lost cause with digital?

Anyway, dumping a few Shorpy rips.

>The theory of photography can be learned in an hour and the elements of practising it in a day... What cannot be learned is the sense of light, an artistic feeling for the effects of varying luminosity and combinations of it, the application of this or that effect to the features which confront the artist in you. What can be learned even less is the moral grasp of the subject — that instant understanding which puts you in touch with the model, helps you to sum him up, guides you to his habits, his ideas and his character and enables you to produce, not an indifferent reproduction, a matter of routine or accident such as any laboratory assistant could achieve, but a really convincing and sympathetic likeness, an intimate portrait.
Was Nadar right? Could you really learn the basics of photography in an hour? And the rest of it is just artistic talent?

Sports thread

This seems to be a topic which includes more unjustified opinions and shilling than researched facts. Searching the internet mainly brings you just Youtube videos, app ads and R*ddit topics where every other claim log curves in smarthpone videos are perfect and every other claim it's just a gimmick.

Modern smartphone's curves tend to default Rec709 in 8-bit and HLG or PQ in 10-bit modes. My Snoy Xperia 5 II has Rec709/HLG by default and Camera2API reports the curve (I don't know which one) has density of 128 points. Apps like Mcpro24fps, Filmic Pro can output video files with log curves applied and I'm interested how these curves are achtually produced/achieved. Some people say those are just custom curves applied over manufacturer's default curve (which may or may not include reverse tone mapping). And then there are some claims where the manufacturer's curve is replaced with the selected log curve. App devs don't reveal their methods and I can't find any credible research about it.

I want to study good photographers so that I can improve my composition skills, but photobooks are fucking expensive. I know they must be free somewhere online but I haven't had much luck finding the ones I want, ex. picrel. Any advice?

You literally just pushed one button.

hey guys, y found this photo from a old cd, I need to know where it from,

The shot is really great and i was wondering if there was a specific studio that makes these kinds of photos? I was thinking of Harcourt in Paris, but no online confirmation that Tyler was photographied there.

Also which camera/gear can produce this kind of quality?

i saw this guy in the shops today looking at cakes, the funny thing about this is that he has been looking and searching for one for an hour straight. so i decided to take a photo of it just to show u guys lol

Wait, is this camera actually based?

I was reading about medium formats and I guess this is one of the current offerings on the market.

Obviously what stood out to me right away is that it has no IBIS and no interchangeable lens / stuck on f4(???).

But then, I took a look at the sample images that people have taken with it in low light, and they look fine? they look like something we could get at f2 with a Leica Q, etc.

If you're having a rough day, take a moment to sit down, close your eyes, and breathe deeply. Then, stand up and face the rest of the day with renewed energy. :)

Have you ever touched an exposed light sensor?

What does it feel like?

How do you fix and/or clean a light sensor you fucked up by touching it?

I enjoy the process of photographing quite a bit, I enjoy editing, I enjoy every stage of the photographic process. However, at the end of it all, I am left with a bunch of nice, edited photos, and they just sit unseen on my hard drive forever. What are other anons doing with their photos after they have something they are satisfied with?

Any last words?

Hi guys! What tools can help me make a person older to 4-5 years? On photo this person looks like 16-17 teen, but I need to make this person older.

first of all, no, I'm not trying to learn it thru my phone camera. I just hate the elitists on among photography community. like damn, people gotta start from somewhere, mf sometimes be like 14 or from zimbabwe and just want to learn how to shoot better photos.
best you can do is to guide them to the right path instead of making fun of them, fuck all of you elitist niggers. eat shit and fucking die

the best camera is the one you already have

I took some pictures of cows today.
Camera: R5 mark 2
Lens: RF 35mm 1.8 STM

Have a glass of milk on me. enjoy.

Critique is always welcomed

I found item for sale on ebay, looks like the common and crappy canon18-55mm lens but there is a strange aperture where the front element should be, it doesn't look like a diy thing but factory made. I have never seen something like that, anyone knows that this might be? at first I thought it could be a display model but the description says it closes when the image stabilization is turned on.. makes it even more weird.
I'd buy it out of curiosity but it is in Canada

Film photos from the last few months + some thoughts.

>be me
>start getting into film
>bought a fx3 and start shooting in the park to get the hang of everything, namely exposure.
>at the park today, two mexican guys park next to me and make conversation (I'm in the south, so its normal to make random convo, and I'm Mexican too)
>get a little nervous since it's hard to tell if cartel types or construction worker types
>conversation goes on and I get the feeling they are cool
>eventually they start suggesting me shoot a a video with the new car one of the guys bought
>i think to myself this could be pretty cool so I go with it and start shooting (my literal first shoot with talent if you will).
>as I'm shooting this, during some downtime some dumb bitch comes out of nowhere to ask if I can take pictures of her on her iPhone (i literally never take pictures on my iphone and still learning)
>take pictures, dumb bitch gets mad and tells me I need to auto focus on her face and makes a snide remark about how I'm the professional
>all of this is happening while I'm just trying to shoot some film

on one hand this is cool and actually fun but on the other hand it can be a lot of pressure. its good practice in my eyes to be able to do a quick exercise around filiming other people so I went with it. you have to literally think on the spot.

anyways just wanted to share cause it was kinda all over the place. the whole time i was with those mexican guys i was kinda nervous they were trying to steal my camera but they turned out to be chill.

Do any of yall know any other film cameras than the gen 3 Polaroid i have and possibly some tips for taking better pictures than these.

I am stuck on my gear journey
>started with little compact rx100vii
>liked its size but the image quality especially in low light was lacking
>sell it and buy a k1-ii
>was a disaster, too heavy, baked in NR, never took it anywhere
>sold it bought em1-iii
>enjoy it but wonder if a larger sensor will actually make a difference
>scared to take it out in public because it's larger than a compact
>but also want it to be durable and tough so I don't have to baby it
So what the hell do I do? mushroom for attention

Recommend me fantasy photography. Like the folklore. I am sick and tired of human relations bullshit and contemporary news.

In 2007, he was given the Young Photographer Infinity Award by the International Center of Photography
How many dicks do you think he sucked?

Here's the recipe to make it out there:

>Be a degenerate twink faggot
>take photos of other degenerate faggots of every color and body type but make sure they are never normal
>drink the the cum or eat the pussy of some affluent art people in a big city
>???
>Profit?

One thing I have noticed in old photographers is that their staging is really great. It seems like a lost art. How can I up my staging game? Are there any books for it or is it intuitive? There's must be some kind of methods for this shit.

This pinhole camera made by Ilford consists of a couple of plastic sheets and is now 224 Euros. A couple of months ago it cost 80 Euros.

Let me guess, you need more?
