Shot a second test roll with my Hasselblad. Portra 400.

I'll post the whole roll (minus 3 family portraits).

Please give me constructive criticism.

Almost interesting but the square crop isn't doing it any favors.

>>2700563
pretty good. I don't like it, but it's still good.

>>2700564
not nearly as good. you lost the layering that made the other one better.

Thanks, guys. I'll work on finding more interesting subjects.

>>2700551
Great, a _slight_ bit more foreground could help with balance, but nice shot

the rest p boring tho m8

>>2700563
>>2700564
these are flat because of the lighting (shade), would be more interesting with nicer light

>>2700571
I like this.
>>
>>2700578
Thanks. Means a bit, coming from you.

Keep in mind that this was a test roll, though. All shot in one day - I'm not necessarily waiting for perfect light and/or subjects as my main goal at the moment is making sure the camera is functioning accurately, before it's warranty/return period ends.

Your scans are shitty and noisy. I'm guessing these were done by a lab or a flatbed?

Personally, I wouldn't have used Portra 400 for daylight landscape.

:/

ektar 100 nig, portra is very bland for colors. You have flat colors in these pictures

approvable

Is the photo not a square? Or are you taking issue with the word crop, in place of the word "ratio"?

How does the pedantic lifestyle suit you? Clearly it lets you feel vastly superior, but I should let you know, other people aren't really fooled. It's obvious what he meant, and feigning conversational ignorance isn't as good a tactic to prove intelligence as you think it is.

Things have names for a reason, mixing them up causes confusion.
The aspect ratio is controlled by your gear, a crop is controlled by the photographer. In a discussion about what suits a picture, these things shouldn't be the same thing.

Sure, there are words that get used wrong all the time as well, tele being the most common, but here everybody knows that you just mean a lens longer than your normal focal length, not an actual tele lens with a special build.
Crop and aspect ratio are entirely different things however. Just admit to yourself that you don't have a clue about medium format, which is nothing to be ashamed of, that you made a gear related mistake on /p/ and that you will get laughed at by internet strangers because of it.

wut

portra 400 is god-tier for certain landscape situations......gotta know when to show dem Portra golds, plus 400 is super-forgiving on exposure almost as much as Tri-X.

it's not a be all end all I usually use Fuji 160ns for greens, Provia 100f for blues but in a pinch Portra 400 can pull off landscape.

It's strength is skin tones, remember, so if your scene is dominated by skin tones, then you're set, and this includes winter foliage.

You all make very cromulent points.
>>
>>2700859
What? I don't think portra 400 is "god-tier" for any landscape situations... the fact of the matter is portra yields lower contrast and saturation, which may or may not be what you're looking for, but generally, landscape photos aren't supposed to be flat. Unless you're doing a set, or photojournalism, no one's going to like your flat ass pictures
