I wish to get into film (and medium format) and I'm undecided between a cheap holga , and a used TLR like a Montanus Del Monta or a Yashica Yashicaflex S.
Any advice?

Buy a Rolleicord with a Schneider lens - budget
Rolleiflex with a Tessar or a Planar - higher end
Any 6x6 folder from ebay vintage camera section with a half decent name and lens such as Zeiss Ikon Voigtlander. Forget Holga - they suck.
Alternatively, consider what exactly you want to do with MF film, what workflow, expectations, goals, subjects, results you want to work with/have photos of/achieve and realise you've listed absurdly differing tools to work with 120 film - a horrid quality point and shoot guesstimate absolutely no control over image acqusition toy, and two absolutely arbitrary flavours of waist-level finder-using TLRs which give you control over image parameters but force you to adapt to a unique method of image framing that has both pros and cons that are hopefully obvious and not necessary...

Hello /p/. What do you use for displaying your prints?
I want to get something like this to mount on my wall, but it's like $800-$1400 which I can't afford while being an amateur. Right now I'm using itoya art portfolios on my coffee table.

I'm an amateur photog and I've never really shot people before, but recently I was talking to one of my qt friends who happens to be an actual runway model and she agreed to go on a photo shoot with me. we have been friends for maybe a year now, but like not close friends. the problem is I don't really know what to do or expect. how do I make her comfortable is probably the most important thing right now. but also how long is a typical shoot? and how do I get started when I meet her? what are somethings I should prepare? feel free give give any top tips
pic kind of related: it one of my better works as photographer

She's agreed to spend some time with you, be grateful for that. Just be yourself, take some pictures, have fun and see how it turns out. If you try to turn it into a serious shoot with specific goals it will turn out rubbish.
If she's a model say something like "I don't usually shoot fashion or models or any of that kind of stuff so you have to show ME what to do"

Just go out with her and have fun, maybe few hours before the sunset so you'll have some 2deep4u lighting to work with and you'll know when to stop = can't see shit.

Though I prefer an actual camera, but I am not a photographer. Genie us, and put me in that bottle baby, as it drink to go to sleep and awakens like the beasts that are digging holes in invisible walls.

Any other video bros out there?
I feel like a I need to work on framing a bit more. I'm a bit disappointed with the car timelapse as the front of the grill is cut off. Otherwise the hedge clip I'm okay with, maybe the grading is a bit weird. What do you guys think? Fake vignetting in the birds one is a bit shit.
I want to get into making short documentaries, but not sure where to start with video. I have a D7100.
Going to be in Frankfurt for 5-6 hours (long ass connecting flight to Japan), so thought I'd check the city out.
Anyone been/live there? What's the best area(s) to take some photos?
no frankfurters or anyone who has been?
the airport is quite far away from the city and the city itself is dirty, ugly and full of assholes.
>>2755694
I wouldn't recommend straying too far from your airport to be honest. Typically you need about 2 hours to catch a flight properly after checking bags, going through security, and boarding the plane (could be less since you're connecting but still).
Especially since you'll be in a city you don't know and you could easily get lost on mass transit, or get stranded due to some sort of delay, or robbed. By all means wander around a short distance but you're probably not going to get in a...

Finally got internet access. We went from Canberra to BM to Sydney. Pretty okay trip, not bad at all. Way too cloudy though, and Sydney just had a piss down, a couple of thunderstorms.
Dumping pics, cc if you want or just a casual feedback is all good too. I'm only beginning colour grading so don't be too harsh on that. I could've changed it but I got lazy. Too much food.

I got this camera today, and it has some problems.
1. The viewfinder only displays white, and
2. The camera will no longer work. Earlier today it was working fine, except for the viewfinder, but now it won't turn on at all. What can I do to fix this? Is it a battery problem or a camera problem?

Step 1: place camera into bin
Step 2: remove phone from pocket
Step 3: proceed to film
VHS is deprecated as fuck And not cool deprecated like 35mm film and vinyl, I mean like everyone stopped using it 10+ years ago for a reason. It's like how no one uses cassette tapes but people still use vinyl.
>>2755503
still pretty alive amongst the skate crowd actually
VHS isn't dead. but I agree. use your phone. it will be as good or better. there are tutorials on youtube that can help.
The Revenant is a perfect example of why photographers should let themselves be inspired by movies, not random people on /b/, not your college photography teacher, not magazines, not "prominents on the interwebs". Also, it is a perfect example of how white balance can be used for artistic effect, unlike what many /p/eople here say ("muh grey cards, muh corrections").
>filmed on digital
thanks but no thanks, buddy.
Also, if someone could tell me how they managed to get this shot in that weather with such a narrow aperture at that speed, that would be great.
So i got a nikon coolpix l340, and I want to take some cool pictures with a few of my lego figures. The problem is, I cant take closeup photos without them being blurry. I have next to no camera experience, so any help will be appreciated. (The pic is a pic I was able to take with my PHONE.)

Hey /v/, what's the best solution for digital storage and back ups?
I current run a single 1TB HDD internally for storage and an external 1TB HDD for 1:1 back-ups. Thinking of creating an off-site/cloud storage for triple redundancy but not sure exactly on how to do this (NAS, Google Drive? etc.)
I want to know how you guys deal with this stuff.

I force myself to use my gear since I've spent so much on it. Thankfully though that I'm getting paid for it, not regular enough to live on, but enough to buy more gear.
Critique?
>>2753330
Read the sticky.
1000 pixels on the longest side
Put individual pics in the relevant snapshit/b&w/film/recent pics thred.
In focus, right shutter speed, maybe a little under exposed, boring background.
>>2753330
uninteresting. tell this to yourself, would you hang this in your room, are you proud of this?
i could just go to my tap turn it on, enable flash on my camera and take the exact same picture.
What made you think this was a good idea? It's okay to test out the camera with this pic, but seeking critique on absolutely nothing is pretty dumb.
Shoot more interesting things would be my advice.
>>2753852
Building on this, it seems to me that the effect you were really trying to get was the metallic appearance of the water coming out of the tap like that. However, the fact that the tap is there, and the sink, etc as well, means that it is really obvious that it's just a tap with some water coming out.
Consider using a watering can against a white or black background with off-camera flash.
