Yeah that's what I was thinking. It's not some over edited bullshit picture, so they don't allow it. I've made the front page over there before too, and it was with one of the most edited pictures I've ever posted (pic related). I think it's just a group of faggots who never go outside and see what actual nature looks like.

Why are we talking about reddit again?
So my cousin and her fiancé asked me if I can take some pictures at her wedding this weekend.
They hired a photographer but apparently (s)he won't be staying until the end of the ceremony, so what they're looking for is mainly pictures of them at the end, walking down the aisle together (pic related is the kind of picture my cousin told me she liked), and some snaps of the family at the ceremony afterwards.
I've got an X-Pro2, X70 (28mm equivalent FOV), X100S (35mm equivalent FOV), and my girlfriend's X-T1. For lenses, I've got the 14/2.8, 16/1.4, 23/1.4, 35/1.4, 56/1.2, 90/2, and the 16-55/2.8. I've also got speed lights and a few light modifiers.
It will be indoors and dimly lit.
Considering that it's out of town and I'll be flying there, I want to travel light. I usually shoot studio which is obviously a lot more forgiving than an event, so I want to make sure I get it right.
What do I take? I'm split between the zoom for versatility and the primes for low light capability. My current plan is the X-Pro2 with the zoom since it can do higher ISO's better, and taking a few primes to use with the X-T1 - 16, 35, 56, 90? Plus a speed light and a couple of gels to match ambient lighting.
I'm probably overthinking this but obviously I don't want to fuck it up. Also, any tips would be truly appreciated.
To summarize,
>mirrorless
>dark
>moving subjects
How fucked am I?

Use your XPro2 and 16-55 in in high performance mode, medium sized zone AF, AF-C, and continuous low. You'll be just fine.
For safety, keep the X-T1 on your shoulder with the 16mm on it. Also medium zone and AF-C. That lens has great AF, and the added aperture should help the X-T1 out.
You'll be just fine.
You're gonna make it.
Anyway to find out what equipment their photographer is shooting with? Dimensions of the room the ceremony will be in? Your available mobility?
I'd go for precision at the ceremony, and then open up and be playful at the reception. That's generally what people are looking for given the contrast between the ceremony and the party.
56 or 35 IMO. maybe one for each segment.
>>2815433
>>2815433
Not OP, but I've owned an X Pro 1, XT-1 - before and after FW4.0, an X100S, an X100T and now an X Pro 2 and I still can't bring myself to use zone focus instead of single point.
What do you use it for, and how do you go about deciding where to place the zone, what size, etc? I feel like I'm half using the camera lol.
Which setting do you use in vuescan for your negs?
>>2815280
I use the 'do my own colour correction because I'm not a spoon-fed retard' setting.
>it works great
Do you scan bw film in color and than desaturate or in bw mode? I heard somewhere that color mode allows you to capture all the information, more than bw mode
I just posted several long posts in the last film thread about some vuescan basics, including screengrabs.

I'm new to photography and I'm trying to suss the difference between these photos
Would I be right in saying that the first one was taken at dawn with a wide angle lens, nd filter and a longish exposure time and the other was taken with a normal lens in the afternoon?
Would the second one widely be considered a bad photo?

I think they are both cool shots, although I prefer the first for creativity. I think the second might have been taken with a telephoto, looks a bit flatter.
>>2815116
>Would the second one widely be considered a bad photo?
No.
>>2815116
The first shot looks more like a standard focal length, something like a 35mm or 50mm. Not sure about the ND filter as it's not easy to tell really, this result can definitely be produced without one. As for the exposure length, it's probably 10+ seconds.
The second image looks like it was shot with a tele, just after midday or something.
>Would the second one widely be considered a bad photo?
Definitely not, why would you think that anon? Exposure is spot on...

Alright, can someone explain to me your tastes in photos?
Might as well make its an ITT: explain your tastes.
Reason Im asking this is because I randomly came here as part of my explore every board mission. Then I see people posting pictures that make no sense. They seem like random every day shots in hope that one might be good, when in reality they all are just strange. There are some like pic related (sorry for stealing it, just looked cool) that I get. Most people would never see it, its worth sharing. Its interesting and I spent half a minute exploring the image before moving on. Thats something worth sharing. Hell, I wouldnt mind someone taking pictures of a sewer. That would be worth spending time looking at. A stroll around a city with random photos, however, is not.
TLDR: What do you think while taking photos on a stroll that makes you take some but not others.

This is partially because photography is much harder than most people realise. Its hard to take a good photo without practice, experience and a good understanding of photography. These people who take "pictures that make no sense" are still learning. Many people on this board are still learning the basics.
A photo like the one in your opening...

I like geometry in pictures, so I'm naturally drawn to architectural photography. Specifically, isolated details and textures. This shot from Ming Thein is a good example.
How do i buy photoshop?
The only place i can find is the official website but i only see options for monthly payments instead of just buying it as a whole. Is it even possible r do you just pay monthly to have access?
Do the Monthly photoshop/lightroom cc. Its only $10 a month for both... Comes out being slightly less expensive than buying and u get all the updates
>>2814970
doing it monthly do you eventually own it? or do you just pay the $10 forever?
>>2814976
You just pay ten dollars forever.

Should I complete this transaction?
I would recommend a sony A6300, it has blazing fast autofocus performance and a lightweight mirrorless form factor..
>>2814646
You definitely should. That camera cost more than I have in my savings account right now. I'm so jelly....
>>2814646
Statistically, no, probably not.
I'm gonna upload some of the pictures i've taken on my phone that I like. I don't know much about photography, but i'm interested in knowing what you think about the pictures.

those light beams look a bit off, great work otherwise
are megapixels on cameras supposed to make a difference? I mean the resolutions on pictures are so damn big you'd assume they don't but most people seem to assume that moar MP = better camera.
>>2813925
Yeah, to an extent they totally do make a difference. The more pixels you have, the more detail you have to work with (at least until you run out of resolution). Of course, bigger pixels have significant advantages too.
depends how big you want your print to be.
>>2813931
Also, while additional detail may not benefit anyone, additional granularity in tonal gradients can make color and shading transitions look much more pleasing. It also allows for down-sampling to get rid of flaws and improve overall perceived quality in the file.
Mostly though, it's just marketing and an easy metric to make improvements to for the engineers, in a part of the camera that consumers understand. Most people don't get color depth, or dynamic range, and wouldn't notice the difference...

Hello,
Since I'm coming every day with a new picture to try to learn more from you guys, I'll just do this because I'm getting lost and my photography program starts in August.
pic is first picture I shot and posted with my D3300
The second one. I have learned about exposure here after this one.
Then there was this one, which made me realize that I have no sense of composition

Hey guys, I've been using my sister's Nikon D5300 for months because she let me use it, then I started loving photography, and I thought that I should buy one for myself... I've been searching and I find the Nikon D3300 interesting... what you guys think? Normally I photograph people (portraits) and landscapes

It's not "interesting" in any way, but it's an inexpensive capable camera for low end stuff like what you're asking from it. So long as you stick to modern lenses, you won't regret it for a while, most likely.
If you get into action stuff, or manual focus, you'll be disappointed, but most people don't.
For more questions, try to post them in the gear thread please.
By "action" you mean photographing sports?
