You can get a free app for your phone. Your lens doesn't have the focal plane calculations on it?

The other thing you can do is use the aperture preview button if your camera has one. It will stop the aperture down and you can visually check how much of your image is in focus.

Do you know that the larger your aperture number the longer your focal will be? So at f2.8 you may only have a 1 foot focal plane, but at f22 it would be 30 feet. Im using fake numbers for an example.

Nice! This is the right place to ask questions!

My posts have a lot of keywords you should look up on your own. If you want a more fundamental understanding of how focusing works its a great place to start. If you just want to mess around try setting camera in aperture priority mode and see how a larger or smaller aperture influences how much of your image is in focus.

Will Nikon or Canon ever get rid of their DSLR style bodies for their mirrorless lineups?
>>
>>4299189
Both brands have fully committed to cancelling their DSLR lines.
Both for consumer and professionals.

They might keep a few models in production but there is absolutely zero R&D being spent on the DSLR bodies and lens systems. It is a dead end. Mirrorless is the future nobody asked for but it is what we're getting.

I like this picture. It's hard to tell if the ground is cement, a gravel road or snow. Those trees I don't recognize. Not where I live in USA. That weird tower I've never seen before. A stealth cell tower? The pink glow on the background is from a big city somewhere?

You screwed up anon, treasure is a keyword monitored by the five eyes. Your smartphone location history has been reviewed by the three letter agencies and they've probably found it already by reviewing satellite footage/drone footage. If it was anything of value, it's probably long gone. If it was junk, they probably still took it anyway.

Flimsiest I'd ever consider going is this style. I'm sure the even smaller/lighter ones technically can be serviceable, it gets to a point where it's barely a tripod and you wonder why you bother to bring it at all.

I trek with 70lb backpack in the woods for days, I will be a pussy on weight, and prefer trade that weight difference for a wider prime on top of 24-120.

24-70 f/4 for size and weight, 24-120 for more versatility with a marginal bump in weight and size. The 35-150 is an anchor. Great if you’re a wedding/event videographer, I don’t think it’s good for stills IMO, the wide end isn’t wide enough.

He didn’t say anything about cinestill

How would this soft frontal light on the model be achieved in a photo taken in the middle of a sunny day? My first thought would be a huge white bounce board but that would be pretty cumbersome to carry around. Is the photographer doing something with a flash? It looks light the light source is coming from the photographer or maybe just to their right.

Every man alive today is afraid of fake rape charges, child support checks, alimony and the ungodly rage of knowing the bitch could have and would have gotten an abortion if he weren't wealthier than her.

If you want those fears to have a 100% chance of coming to life, just skip past all the normal person stuff like wedding photography, do cosplayer portraits, and start dating some skinnyfat gamer thot. Because all of those horror stories originate from only two kinds of women: obvious gold diggers, and "nerds".

If you actually want to interact with random people and go to parties be a wedding photographer. Don't worry, most of the guests don't care about the wedding either!

That's because you are a mentally healthy heterosexual male.
The only people I've known to give a shit about wedding dresses are homosexuals and women. There are zero heterosexual (or even bisexual) men who care about wedding dresses.

and even though i as a 40 year old millennifart boomer often shit on gen-z i think it is kinda cool. Just imagine them going to whatever social gathering they are assembling in, bringing out all these cool semi-vintage digicams that nobody gave 2 shits about until recently..
The market is absolutely booming right now.. they want it all. The shittiest model you can imagine? Guess what.. they want it and they want to pay more than yesterday.
In certain niche markets these things sell for even above ebay prices which is insane.
Gen-z is unironically making photography fun again?
It is also quite interesting to think about the conditions that made this possible in the first place. So what happened exactly? My viewpoint is the following:
Younger Gen-z social media users have only used cellphones for photography.. they have finally realized that the platform has limitations.. they look at pictures their parents took of them when they were kids using digicams and want that particular look etc, meanwhile the large camera companies have completely neglected this market segment thanks to plebs only using their phones. just look at Canon for instance.. they haven't released a single Ixus model in 7 years and their last hoorah was nothing special in terms of specifications so we have to go back even further to find their high end models. Other companies have done the same.. there is nothing to be seen from the likes of Nikon, Sony, Olympus, Fuji, Samsung or any of the companies that for years made these ultra-compact and cool looking cameras.
It find it all really strange. You have a generation that simply loves this type of stuff and nothing to sell them. Just imagine these cameras with updated hardware, maybe some fresh colors and "limited edition" varieties.
Also feel free to post pics of cool digicams.

you are a retard
nobody's phone photo is a "technically perfect" image it's further from reality than ever before
these digicams are just different software, it has nothing to do with hardware

also old CCDs aren't noisy
they're LOW NOISE, just worse at at high ISOs
you give them enough light (and their wells are deep) and they look great (the raw CCD images)
but almost every digishit cam is a JPEG producing piece of shit and this is no different than buying some faggot youtuber's Adobe "presets" for some shitty look

Primarily it was made for video color grading (100% Rec 709) but I have find it to quite color accurate for most photo editing as well, even without always hardware calibrating. Rarely I have had to change color on pictures because of print issues.

Lightroom Classic for image cataloguing and editing. I go to Photoshop only if I need to. I also use it for printing. I'd like to get out of the Adobe cuck monthly payments and thinking of trying Capture one. Replacing Photoshop seems to be the bigger hurdle, maybe I should try to use Affinity. I used to video edit in Premiere and grade in Resolve, but I am slowly moving my video editing also to Resolve.

/fgt/ daily reminder (courtesy by anon): one stop per decade is (generally) bullshit
>negative film ages better than positive
>black and white better than color
>slow films better than fast
>storage conditions (dry/cool) matter more than years
>Negative film is shot 1 or 2 stops overexposed and then PULLED in development so that you build more density in the exposure and develop less such that the fog is limited
>slide/positive film is shot at box speed or overexposed and pulled.
>if you home develop you can also use benzotriazole as a restrainer for the the first developer in E6 process

Why did you consider the F5? I have an F4s, FE and F eye level and I find myself using the F4s the least because it doesn't fit in my usual camera bag.

mostly because it works with newer F mount lenses, auto focus, color metering, etc

Well, here is the sharpest image I was able to get with the aerial camera. Cropped the bottom half... It shoots 6x6. If I am bored I may try using some tmax or other finer grained film to see how much sharper the lens is.

I think I had some film flatness issues, and minor camera shake because I was shooting at 1/125. The shutter release button is kinda heavy.

All in all a very fun test.

If you wanna use AF-S lenses go for the F5 or F100, If you want a mechanical body then go for F, F2 or FM/FE series. Imo the F2 is the most tactile feeling camera out of all the F series and I regret selling mine a long time ago.

also it looks like it is out of focus as you should see some sun spots. also keep in mind depending on your filter, it might not be eye safe, so use live view instead of your OVF
>>
>>4299110
Yeah I need to figure out the focus since it's a manual lens. I'm using the live view, of course.
>>
>>4299111
focus rings can be very sensitive at infinity, if you get it close you should be able to use CDAF to finish focus. if you're having problems you can get one of those levers I have on my focus ring. Sunwayfoto makes them

no, i know it's supposed to be life changing but it isn't worth the travel for me, i'm not so old that i can't see one in the future when i have more money and time
plus i got my share of fun sun things with the wildfire smoke in the northeast last year, where i was able to shoot the sun in daylight and without filters or glasses and see the sun spots >>4299110 mention (thought they were shit on my lens at first until i looked it up online and matched them to then-current sun spots which was cool as hell to me)
