The drone usually has it's own proprietary camera. Cameras are heavy and you can't just stick any camera on there. If it's not the proprietary camera, it's a GoPro.
A Red Epic? Skys the limit to be honest. all depends on the drone.
we all know those faggots around the interweb who swear on their left testicle that film is automatically better than digital but what do you newfags and oldfags think

Honest question here, what do you actually get out of starting a thread like this? Does it somehow make you feel good to make a couple of strangers argue the same thing over and over again? Does it somehow improve your life?

Hey ya'll let's talk about lighting.
I want to start doing portraits. Is it possible for me to do them with just a single light? If so, what kind of light do you recommend that I get? Any particular brand? Any particular accessories?
Any lighting tips? Any lighting tutorials?
Everything lighting let's put it in this thread here.

Does anybody on /p/ have experience with LED hot lights for still photography?
I'm switching camera brands, and rather than buy a bunch of speedlights again, I was thinking an LED setup that would also work for video interviews would be a cool idea. I'll be using the lights mostly for portraits and cosplay photography, and they'll be close to the subject, so I don't need a ton of power, just soft and even light. My budget for a two light kit is around $1k max.
I was looking at these Fiilex P100s at FilmTools the other day and they seem like they might be a pretty cool option, they're tiny, battery powered, and output around what a 100w strobe does. I figure I can shoot them through my existing pair of 24" softboxes.

I was shooting portraits with 1-2kW Arri hotlights and Chimera softboxes for a long time because it was the only thing I could easily rent till I got my first Elinchrom strobe set. Continuous lighting for portraiture fucking sucks, even with Arris. The amount of power you'd need to compare even to small strobes is ridiculous.
I'd decide what field (stills or video) is more important for you at the moment and then go with that kind of lighting. these kind of compromises suck

I'm having the same problem at least in London in the photo fine art realm. If you're not black or trans or a lesbian or something you're work is just glanced over. This is Anonymous but what I'm considering doing becoming like a cross dressing "trap" just to get my work out there, it's fucked but its going to get me massive do a few shoots pandering to it, grow then change my style up to what I want. I've been struggling for like 2 years.
I'm discontent with the low light performance with my t3i. Looking to upgrade to a 6D but I don't feel as if I take enough pictures to justify the purchase. Now that school is coming to a close and I'll have more time for the summer, I plan on taking a lot more pictures before I ditch the t3i. However I don't just want to go around aimlessly taking pictures. Is there a way I can do this systematically? I was thinking about going to a different neighborhood in my city each time, and taking landscapes/architecture on day and portraits of locals on another day. Any other ideas? Also thoughts on 6D as an upgrade from t3i?

I'm guessing, if pic is related, you're in NYC.
If you can't just go out and find interesting things to shoot in the city or by exploring as far as you can using the NYCT System - then you aren't trying hard enough. Just get out there. Or decide on a theme to work on and do it.
>>2840178
What do you mean by theme?

These are a redo of a picture I took with a cellphone a few years ago that I always wished was better, obviously the reflection of the shore and the sky is the main thing tying these together but I actually went a little further with the reflecting theme by horizontally reflecting all of them in processing. Not because it really adds anything to the image for you, but because I find that it helps to look at pictures in a new way when editing. Do you guys have any mental tricks that you use when editing? I know it is fairly common for people to almost finish then leave a picture alone for a few hours and do something else before coming back to it for a fresh look.

Hi, /p/.
I'm going on holiday soon and I was wondering, should I take my camera?
1. I don't like looking like a tourist and sticking out
2. I don't like taking photos of landmarks, I prefer living in the moment
3. It would be nice to have photos of memories
4. Might catch some nice shots
What do you think? Are cameras on holiday for plebs and old people?

So /p/, where are you going, what are you shooting, and what are you using to shoot it with today?
Got off at a random train stop on the edge of some mountains. Hoping to shoot some small town life. Got my Bronica SQ-A loaded with Portra 400 and my Stylus Epic loaded with Gold 400.
>>2838642
oh ur the japan guy with a bronica. cool stuff. wish i had a real forest near myself.
me? im going to finish tonight this cine film im testing so i can wash it and develop it tomorrow. this can only mean one thing: lewd selfies.
>Where are you going

>what are you shooting
nothing
>what are you using to shoot it with today
nothing
I wish I could leave desu
H-have fun for me with your "old" SQ-A 120 back.
>>2838642
Nothing today. But if I don't have anything to shoot, and the clouds look interesting, I typically go out driving until I find a decent enough looking landscape shot to do a shoot 30 minute timelapse that equates to around 30 seconds worth of video.
I shoot with a Canon 5D Mark II with whatever lens fits my needs at the moment.
I've been shooting concerts (got a concert this Monday) and portraiture type work (I've got two girls ready to model for me anytime; just waiting on my 85mm lens)...

I know I'm garbage right now, but I think I have the eye for it and I'm excited to see what I produce in a couple of years.
My Sony 90mm SEL90M28G FE was in my camera bag when it took a tumble from approximately a 1 ft height. It wasn't severe. It fell from my center arm rest in my car to the floor of the backseat, right on top of the raised middle portion where the drivetrain is. So it's approximately a 1ft fall, and it was in the padded camera bag with other gear.
Ever since, the lens auto-focus motor is constantly churning away when I am on the AF setting. Even when its focused, the motor just keeps making noise and it's making video recording a huge fucking pain in the ass...

If the return policy expired 2 days ago. Call them up and see if they'll still take it, you never know. Or if you could come up with some lie as to how you tried to contact them but couldn't for some reason.
Other than that, you could always try to manually pull focus on video. I do a lot of video, and I would never trust auto focus on the subject. Seriously, just work on your focus pulling, it's a skill you need to have
>>2836829

hi guys, i fell for the fujifag meme and by accident bought a FUJIFILM X-T10 and a FUJINON 23mm f/1.4
a used NIKON D600 and SIGMA 35mm f/1.4HSM would have been the same price
autism is being shipped straight to my doorstep
is there any consolation for this grievous mistake

I say this as an avowed Nikon fag of many years who fucking loves his D800.
You would have had a hard time shooting street with your D600 anyway.
baka i cant believe ive been turned into a fujifuck
does the 23mm f/1.4 fit the body well? even on an x1 it looks a little large

It has similar proportions as DSLR.
And what is wrong with being a Fuji fag. Only Sony fags star shit.
