psylent posted:2 Year Old wins photgraphy contest By the time he's older the camera will be worthless, bit of a shame, but it is a nice picture. torgeaux posted:I'm not sure much can be done minus a revolutionary change in optics. Until we aren't limited by glass/ceramic optics and the defraction/distortion problems inherent to it, you can only make a 400mm lens so compact and retain any quality. Right now, I'm not sure you can make a 70-200 much smaller than the f/4 of canon, and how important is it that your camera can fit in your pocket if it's stuck on the end of that? No but you see the camera is tiny and therefore it must be a technological invention that will cast off the shackles of the previous generation! I like a slightly bulky camera as it gives me something to grip.

On second thought this was a bad idea.

Twenties Superstar posted:What is it about other people taking photos the way they want that makes you so upset as to use the word "fag" as a pejorative? Haha nothing, just I see that style over-used and it entertains me that someone has developed a camera specifically to pander to it. I also find it odd that lens vignetting, something that would be considered a fault in most cameras is here used as a selling-point. Also I can't believe I'm replying to a troll. VVVVVV Yes I was reading up on their history page. Very interesting, my point is more the audience the camera panders to and the advertising that's used, less than the camera itself. I appreciate the "acting like" by the way. XTimmy fucked around with this message at Feb 11, 2010 around 08:46 |

You know, by rewording my post and then DELETING IT, this was more or less exactly what I was hoping to avoid

Twenties Superstar posted:You might want to read that thread again. I realise goons don't take admissions of guilt seriously because hey it's much more fun to tear a guy to shreds than pretend he's a human being right? But I feel sincerely guilty for making GBS threads up this thread. I meant no offence, I replied flippantly because, again, goons; we're all sarcastic fucks at each other's throats. By editing my post out I had hoped to avoid a page worth of debate regarding how offensive "enjoyable human being" is in different contexts.

forkbucket posted:Apparently some guy got a collectors edition at the olympics. I've spent the last hour trying to find one, or something similar on the net. Found this, which while not exactly the same, is still awesome as hell. I had one of these that had parts of the world that 'sunk' into the ocean when you put hot liquid in it, a Global Warming mug (it was a gift). Don't put them in the dishwasher.

woot fatigue posted:I have no idea where the proper place to post this is (or if it's allowed), but I started a SA-Mart thread where you may now purchase prints of my work. Please tell me you have a blog where I can learn to produce images with such stunning tone? These are phenomenal.

woot fatigue posted:So basically I should speedball cocaine with mescaline and hope I'm working on some photos when I hit the upswing. Great! Many of your landscapes I can kind of tell what you've done, though I'd be totally incapable of producing such an image myself. What interests me are the ones where you wouldn't have been able to do multiple exposures easily.  A MAGNIFICENT MILE (2006) by BRAD GILLETTE (bgillettephoto.com), on Flickr This one looks almost like it was shot on film, I think the only thing giving it away to me is the grain on her jacket looks more like digital noise than film grain to me. I'm wondering what you did to produce such a soft, filmic gamma curve? Maybe I'm too used to the harsh Australian sun that turns everything to stark shadows. EDIT: I was going to ask for selection efficiency tips too but I get the feeling I just need patience more than anything.

Self portraiture is fun! Muslin-11 by TimFPictures, on Flickr I'd recommend trying some self limitations if you want some inspiration, I was bored one day so I did a complete walk around a local lake at Golden Hour, but I only allowed myself my 50mm f1.8. Really helped to be thinking about positioning and so on.

I'd be concerned about editing RAWs on a screen I can't calibrate but that's me. Unless the iPad is way ahead of where I think it is.

Mest0r posted:I literally burst out laughing after clicking on one of his pictures and seeing 32070 seconds as his shutter speed (about 9 hours). How is that achieved, I would have thought on a digital camera that such a long exposure would cause dead-pixels on the sensor. Let alone the actual logistics, how does one tell the shutter to stay open for 9 hours? (Sound like a right newbie here but am I right in thinking he'd take an image every X minutes then blend them together?)

Man I gotta tell you while I love my little AE1 I spent most of the trip partially deaf and coked up on painkillers following a group of people who had more interest in booze than culture around. I have nothing but terrible touristy shots and I feel like rear end because of it. I did get them printed though so I'll try and scan the handful I did get that I liked and post them up. Where'd be best to post 'em you think? XTimmy fucked around with this message at Aug 10, 2012 around 14:39 |

Looks like a telephoto f1.X lens with trees in the background to me, I'm trying to figure out what you think the issue is?
