Had the chance to shoot with a friend and would like to get some feedback. These were edited in VSCO on my phone - I don't know why there's that weird banding happening.

I'm relatively new in this entire photography thing, and i really nejoy making timelapses. Until recently i had crappy $80 350d, after connecting it to my raspberry pi (overkill, i know) it was taking some pleasant timelapse frames.
Now i purchased used 50d and used ML menus to take my new timelapse; as you can see on this webm, colours are changing. I'm shooting those photos in raw, camera was set to manual, every setting i can think of was set to not change (white balance, aperture, shutter), i turned off every noise reduction i could find in menus - and yet...

>>2726771
I like this one, just wish it were longer.
>>2726791
Thanks!
I'll just throw more of those things, please mind that i still hope for an answer. Everything is short because 350d battery wasn't exactly a beast.
Thinking about getting an a6000 with the cash I get for Christmas because my NX1000 broke. What can you guys tell me about this camera? I'm planning on picking it up with the 16-50mm lens and buying some adapters for some really nice MD and FD lenses I have. Is the 16-50 worth the extra $150 or would I be able to shoot everyday with my manual lenses, I've gotten pretty used to them on my NX1000 without peaking so I think it might not be that bad and I save some cash.
I really do not like the sony 16-55, but it's probably worth $150.
>>2726028
Op here. I'm pretty much just thinking about getting it so I have a lens for just running around and shit. What do you not like about it?
>>2726032
There's no bad modern lens from any non chink company (like those Bowers 6000000000mm lenses).
They go from good to great to excellent...don't let gearfags convince you otherwise. Photographers throughout history would kill to shoot with the shittiest of kit lenses that we have available today.

Canon AE-1
Anyone have this camera? Thinking about purchasing one.
You'll need a way to scan the results to get anything useful from that camera.
But it looks sweet-ass
I have the ae1 program. It's a sweet little camera, used lenses are cheap and still widely available
I also have the ae-1p, solid camera and pretty cheap. Buy one!
I'm thinking about going full on monochrome... do any of you shoot only in BW?
I mostly do now. But don't be too strict on it. Shoot RAW. keep the default as b&w but when you're in Lr, always give colour a go too. Some of my shots are better in colour than b&w and vice versa. You don't have to make the colours pictures your mains but its always nice to keep a colour copy on the side.
>>2721893
if I could, I would for professional work. for personal, it's only BW. ilford 400 represeeeent.
I do, both for my own and for work. But I've been thinking on getting back on taking color portraits. Occasionally I still buy some reversal color film.
Hey /p/, going on a fairly long trip through some rugged terrain and rugged activities (a bit of mountain climbing, etc.) and I'm looking for a camera to take with me. I've come up with a few requirements, and I think I have a camera that fills them, but I'm pretty new into the beyond point-and-shoot/cell phone picture taking and post-editing.
This is what I'm looking at:
-First and foremost, small (looking for pretty much as small as I can get because I need space for many other things and I want to be able to carry it in non-dedicated bags/cases)
-Able...

Get a used em5. They are like $200 used rn, weather proof and the lenses are small and light. It's only slightly worse at high iso than the newer cameras
>>2722705
Hi OP, maybe you could consider the Olympus TG-4 (25-100mm lens but you can add to it an optional tele/fisheye/waterproof wide angle)...about 350$ (275$ used)
>>2722724
Seconded. em5 user here (got it when it came out for like $1,100. ugh)
It's a fantastic camera. It's small, solidly built, takes great pictures, weatherproof (make sure you use weatherproof lenses too), and you can customize it to pretty much any shooting style. Sometimes I use it as a light, quick, automatic beast. Sometimes I flip the screen, add the grip, and go full manual to use it like a slow paced waist level MF camera (I really wish it let you flip the image along the vertical axis like a real...

just finished watching "The Salt of the Earth". Is there any similar photography documentaries that you would recommend?
I started watching some doc about Bresson but it was really boring and just Artsy Fartsy stuff.
I liked Salgado's because they talk more about his adventures and the stuff that happened around him and not about "how he is so good and perfect, every picture he takes is like music" (paraphrasing the bresson doc btw)

theres an old joel peter witkin docu, and a new one. i recommend both; older one is grittier and nastier, both very interesting on his creative process.
the araki docu is amazing too, it has snippets from bjork, daido and takeshi kitano talking about the guy.
Just watched one on Netflix called Everybody Street that was pretty good. It didn't have the same impact on me as Salt of the Earth but it certainly had some great photography, and some interesting personalities.

Hi, I'm sorry but I couldn't see a stupid question thread.
Does a lens with image stabilisation work on a camera that doesn't have it?
Does the camera stabilisation refer to the sensor's stability?

>Does a lens with image stabilisation work on a camera that doesn't have it?
Yes. That's the point of having it in the first place.
>Does the camera stabilisation refer to the sensor's stability?
Yes. It's easier to shift the sensor that, say, the whole body.
>>2719494
You can also manually stabilize a camera by holding it steady.
do you put yourself under the influence of drugs to make photographs?
some people do. i do it lots of times. weed and alcohol make it more easy for street, gives a more even flow of work, not too much space for analyzing and thinking, but doing. cocaine makes you more bold, but you care lot less.

Not intentionally, I just like drugs and also photography so they often coincide
>>2713117
I've never once done coke, I imagine the last thing I would want to do though is go out and take photos.
I smoke weed all the time. I go about my day after smoking weed. Doing the things I would on any day that i hadnt smoked weed. I dint consider it doing drugs and I don't believe it improves my photography.
And I'm utter shit if I try and take photos when I'm drunk.
Just gtfo kid
Ok /p/
I got a Sony a6000 on black friday, i fucking love it, but i'm itching for a low light lens (all mine are f/3.5) - and as much as i'm wanting low light, i'm really not willing to justify $400 for a 1.8 lens this early on in to this hobby...
But i'm seeing These for like fucking cheap, <$40 for f/1.7 35mm and adapter.
They look really good surprisingly given the cost, Any reason i really shouldn't get it? are they actually shit? Seems really too good to be true
Given i've accepted some of the shortcomings like...

Nah it's probably shit. You shouldn't really skimp on lenses. Depending on what you're doing, a tripod might be a better solution.
I guess that's not that helpful though.
You could try old manual-focus film lenses with an adapter perhaps. Can't say I have experience with it myself, but the short flange-to-sensor distance should in theory make mirrorless a good system for adapting lenses cheaply (i.e. without lensed adapters).
I have one for a m4/3 camera. Its fun to mess around with but thats about it, you'll want a better lens for sure. I used it for 2 days and havent touched it since.
Also, on an aps-c sensor, you'll have severe vignetting on any aperture. If you're willing to crop all your photos that'll help, but not much.

This does work, and works well.. Cheaply for Full manual, electric lens adapters are costlier

first for subject, light, and opportunity make for pictures, not fancy gear. it's more important to know how to make the most of what you have, than to buy a shiny toy.

It's figuratively driving me insane. It's a huge annoyance having to save one place and then move them to the place you really wanted them to be.
>>2723440
This, but haven't we all fallen to this trap?
People feel the need to possess new equipment because they're not actually getting anywhere with their current equipment. They presume that upgrading equipment will improve their photography, but as we all know this isn't the case.
how do i even grade like this guy? there's more going on than split toning or fucking with the sliders and i can't come even close to replicating it
more: https://www.flickr.com/photos/megane_wakui/
>>2717546
for starters he seems to cyan the fuck out of the blues
>>2717546
He may tone multiple copies of the image then stack them as layers and basically fade and adjust to get the various tones in together.
Since it's a lot of cyan and red at play there he could be doing a very red layer, a very blue layer then the standard image on top and just erasing through certain parts of the standard image to bring the colour through.
It's a rough idea but I could imagine it would replicate it to some extent.
>>2717546
I don't see were the problem is. Give me a similar shot and I will grade it for you with the exact same look, and I can give you a detailed instruction then.
