Something I've noticed while watching post-processing tutorials for Lightroom is that the person will say to turn the highlights all the way down, and shadows all the way up. And then they will say to set the white point, and black point (by holding down the alt key and dragging).
I used to think this ended up looking bad, but now I'm trying it out again and it actually makes photos come out pretty good after also editing the exposure and contrast.
I also found this while googling:
"The Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 5 Book by Martin Evening has...

>So is it officially intended that you edit in this order (bring down highlights->lift shadows->white point->black point), at least for most photos?
No, they mean more like; you adjust the exposure, then the curves, then the colors, then any split toning you may want, then sharpening, etc. Each "group" goes in order, but not necessarily each slider.
For instance, in the HSL panel, you don't have to adjust red, THEN orange, THEN yellow, etc.
>>2829959
Welllll it says "tone adjustment controls" so I think it is specifically referencing highlights, shadows, whites, and blacks, because those are labeled "Tone" in Lightroom
I have done this on a few of my well-praised images here
I recently started to shoot dead animals (I live near a place were animals are found killed by predators and such). Post your best death pictures! I want to get an idea of how to shoot this type of things. Social websites are preferred so that more images can be seen. Pic related (first pic I took of a dead bird)
Is it wrong for me to kill a few animals if I can't find any predead ones?
>>2827644
Bruh, wtf
>>2827650
I just want to do some death photography of my own but the only animals around here are either stubbornly alive or eating whatever corpses present themselves.
hey folks of /p/ i took this pic in my dads car he is a fat man but he said this picture is good despite his bad choices in life i feel like his choices in what is good photography is good so please tell me you agree with him btw the car im in is not a hearse so please dont say it is

You okay man?

makes me think of like uhhh this kind of industrialization aspect of society and how everything gets manufactured by either gooks or machines made by gooks these days, so i guess both are still being made by the gooks, but the ldesign makes me thihk of the 90s or maybe the late 80s where things were simpler and the twin twoers were still standing tall and proud before the terrorists took them from us
here is pic of fat man he is coming to get me

Why are there horizontal shields in the adapter barrel of that camera?
I'm not into video; I don't understand.
>>2821205
The sensor is rectangular and not circular, I can only assume it's for an extra layer of matting to stop flaring.

So why aren't there vertical shields as well?

Why do people put up with Sony's LOSSY compressed RAW files?
HOW FUCKING HARD IS IT TO HAVE AN OPTION TO TOGGLE COMPRESSION OF RAW FILES ON AND OFF?
I have a fast 128GB card, I don't care about file size. Why is Sony always so fucking cancerous?

If you're in some shithole in the Middle East or something and you have to transmit your shit to a photo desk with a janky satellite antenna thing (but why would you be using a Sony then?), you might be able to send compressed raw files instead of jpegs, depending on how much space is saved with the compression. Can't think of other reasons to enable raw compression other than in that specific scenario.

Is ISO invariance actually useful, or is it just meme capability?
>>2835044
It's great. I use it all the time.
>>2835056
Why?
>>2835058
Because it's fantastic for increasing the overall range of the image, which helps it to look more filmish and natural to what you see in the real world. It also helps when I want to keep highlights in check, or hell, even when I accidentally bump from auto ISO into ISO 200 and shoot a bunch four stops under exposed.

I have a bunch of old photos with fucked up scans. Like almost no data on the red channel for some reason. I guess i couldn't be bothered rescanning them back then and threw them away in disgust, but i still have the files so i tried to fix them in PS.

Pretty cool. There's a camera near me that someone decided to turn backwards, I found it pretty amusing that no one has fixed it.
