Hey street /p/hotogs
Do you think you will be a better street photog if you are an attractive girl?
>not being put in the creep zone
>more candid shots because people are not creeped out by you
>not likely to be robbed by thieves but they might get your number
>if you are a petite girl you can take better shots since your eye level is already around the waist level of tall guys

>girl
>not being self-conscious
in what world do you live in
Actually yes. I've seen it happen first hand with female friends. Totally different reactions between an attractive girl doing street and a guy doing the same thing.
>not dressing up as a gril when taking street photos
Everything it takes to get the perfect shot anon

Hello /p/. How do I become a master of exposure and a steady hand? I am an aspiring filmmaker and am going to be shooting a lot of stuff on my own so I need to improve in all aspects of photography. I've been fooling around with a DSLR for about a year now and still cannot manage to get where I want to be in terms of quality. No matter what I do, it seems that something is always getting blown out.
And whenever I try to take still photos, they end up blurry no matter what shutter speed I shoot at. Pls no bully for the love of god, I want to get better at this but...

shoot something right now at 1/250 and post here. I want to see that blurriness
>>2719170
> master of exposure
Any decent DSLR / MILC knows the basics. If you bought something with decent DR, you can also fix this to a tremendous amount in post, no problem.
> and a steady hand
Decent IS, and a gyro if necessary? Or just a tripod or monopod.
1/200 - 1/300 or whatever also does the trick, if that's acceptable for shooting conditions present and your camera/lens combo.
> And whenever I try to take still photos, they end up blurry no matter what shutter speed I shoot at.
They shouldn't in general, but maybe you're shooting with a cheap craptastic lens.
Actually, most lenses are relatively poor when you shoot them wide open, for that not to be the case you usually pay a pretty hefty premium. Take them 1-2 stops down and the good ones are near perfectly sharp.
>>2719174
This. Post some photos you've taken in good light, with correct settings. We'll help from there.
>>2719170
If your camera isn't broken, reading your manual should give you all the skills you need to achieve a non-blurry photo.
Also, don't stop down to f/36 for "DOF"
(It's ridiculous to say, but it's been a theme around here for a little while now, so it's worth mentioning)
Alex Burke you are our only hope.
Nah but really, I feel like this is perfect for him

never understood why people think black and white photography of the outdoors makes it more epic or important or whatever.
i mean... they invented color film for a reason. its like taking a photo of all this naturally beautiful colors and then being like "naa fuck that"
>>2718758
I'm sorry you're a fucking retard and don't understand the concept of archive images.

Or even "tones"
How easy/painful/impossible is it to repair a dead 80s point and shoot film camera?
Its totally dead, owner says it stopped working one day. Should i buy it anyways to see if i can get it back from death? Its a cool camera.
pic unrelatd.
>>2718570
its the autowinding, self focusing, full auto type.
There could be any number of thousands of possible things wrong with it. Nobody here can tell you how easy or not it will be to fix it.
>>2718570
im curious about them too, thinking of buying a broken t4 and then getting it repaired
So I just started photography and took these pictures the other day. What are your thoughts?
Also ITT post your favourite pics and/or most recent pics you took
hey guys!
i'm sure someone here can help me
i'm looking for a photographer's name
i've heard about him at art history class
i don't know where did he live, but somewhere between 1900 and 1950 i think
all of his stuff was black and white thats the only thing i'm sure about
his main theme was mad people, and other creepy stuff similar to that
it was very dark and creepy
pic unrelated
>>2716754
Ansel Adams
>>2716754
you've described like most photographers of the 1900s
What does /p/ use to share their photography?
I just recently got into photography and am just using instagram right now and it fucking sucks
Share something here and I will tell you if this should be your biggest problem or not;)
>>2716160
you spam like/comment people on instagram and hope they follow you back. or you get hubs to share your shit
>>2719345
You need to use the right hastags too
Recently developed pictures from my Japan trip this summer. Still have around 6 undeveloped rolls but no money right now so will have to wait to get those developed sometimes.
C&C as always appreciated

Hi, beginner here, I come from k, anyhow, I recently took these pictures with my phone (samsung galaxy note 1).
I know that I could probably do way better, but I know jack shit about photography.
Any pointers for a newfag? I'm considering getting a camera soon, anywhere i can read up and study photography?
This would mostly be done for fun.

As far as I know it is better to always use and recharge the same group of batteries together.
I tried using permanent markers, but they come off and are also not easy to see if the battery is black.
I tried to use tape, but it was too thick, and thus the battery would not fit the speedlight.
Any advice?
>>2720921
If you're putting this much energy into which batteries you're using, you're doing it wrong... Pick up a single job per four years and you'll be able to pay to replace any batteries you accidentally wear out.
>>2720925
What if one battery explodes by mixing a charged one with a discharged?
>>2720921
I know eneloops come in different colors for specifically this reason.
First time in /p/
I've been reading reviews of the past few days on the net, and I think I've settled on Sony RX100 for £256
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Sony-DSCRX100-Advanced-Digital-Compact/dp/B008CNMZDW
I'm not a photographer, I have always used my phone's camera for shooting (as of now OnePlus Two). I probably won't become one the guys who constantly changes lenses, having a camera in my pocket when I go on holiday etc would be nice, I won't be taking much pictures elsewhere.
So /p/ is RX100 a good choice for me, any issue...

I don't know about other versions of the rx100 series but I have the mark III, grabbed it back in May for a trip to Italy. I love it, I've personally have a lot of pros that work for me.
non invasive, I used it to photograph a christening in a church, shutter is silent as fuck when you turn of the digital shutter noise.
Fits in pants or jacket pocket, I carry it with me everywhere I go, I have it in my pocket at the moment at work and took a few photos earlier this morning. Having it always on me and shotting revived my interest in photography back when I first...

no flippy screen.
get the II or canon g7x
>>2720796
If all you want to do is just have a camera with you at all times this is probably one of the better choices. I would recommend looking at getting a Mark II or III though, they're a large improvement over the original.
Other cameras to look at are the Ricoh GR and the Lumix LX7. The GR would be my pick if you think you'll get more serious about taking photos later on, but if not the RX100 will be a perfect fit. It's a great little camera, my one complaint is that it feels far too small in my large...

Lets take this from another Angle what is the piece of equipment you most regret buying. For me it has to have been a Godox SY3000. Legitimately dangerous. Don't buy these pieces of shit. This is what the flash cap looked like after it exploded an spewed fumes everywhere. Anyone else got horror stories?

Yeah I'm one of those newfags who fell for getting a film camera instead of a digital cam. Aside from getting the camera for $100 which can be had for $20, I also have a ton of negatives which I don't know how to digitize since I'm saving up for a DSLR to be able to scan them.
But enough about that. My problem now is how can you apply the Sunny 16 rule if it's already night time or if you are indoors. I usually shoot at this time and do night time street photography because I'm at work in the mornings and afternoons. The lightmeter on my camera...

In short, nope.
Indoor light is so variable and your brain does so many internal adjustments that your ability to judge light absolutely is really quite awful.
Buy a light meter that isn't likely to get stolen, I guess.

Because im from a third-world country and here, i can take out my dslr to the streets, look hipster as fuck at 1:00 am, alone, and nobody would try to rekt on me. You're not from a 3rd world, you are probably from a fucking shithole-world country
