How do you guys feel about cinematography? I think I could make some real bank being a director of photography :cheers:

And now I can't watch lovely movies because the framing is atrocious and I get get over how someone get paid buttloads of money for that poo poo.

What are the ethics behind letting your ex-girlfriend use one of your photos for free in the magazine she works for?

I tend to be okay with giving stuff away to non-profits/school reports/etc, but if they're making money off the image I think the photographer deserves a cut.

Verman posted:

I agree, if the magazine is making a profit off of their publication, then you should be entitled to some sort of compensation for your photo.

Even if they're not making a profit, you are still entitled to some kind of compensation.

It'll be good exposure.

We'll have lots of paying assignments in the future if this works out.

You'll get a great tearsheet.

She's my exgirlfriend out of circumstance and I love her very much so when it comes to her I don't care about your ethics so there :colbert:

Well the fluorescent light stuff is interesting. My no-touch voltage detector goes crazy around fluorescent lights, yet something with 240+volts has to be pretty close.

I always thought it had something to do with photons.

dear darkroom, it's impossible not to have any sensor dust at f/22 no matter how mangy GODDAMN CHEMICALS I PUT ON MY SENSOR, sure, you're almost perfect, BUT I SEE THOSE TINY TINY SPOTS AT f/22... after i auto level in photoshop... i guess it's way better than before...

Oh god I hope professor clone tool can go suck a dick forever.

I got pretty good at it, now there are some minor minor spots that i'll never see in any photo not of a solar eclipse (and even then, maybe not!), I think it's mostly because even though the swabs are supposed to be full frame sized, they are actually a little smaller, so stuff sometimes just get's pushed to the side.

Toxic hemicals are cool because they mostly turn into toxic vapor and don't leave anything on your sensor!

I noticed that if you imported the photos to Lightroom 2 with XML files and then imported them to Lightroom 3 afterwards, it was unlocked... But hooray for not having to do that!

Did you shoot with nikon brand film?

At least in the old days that I can barely remember, you got to choose what film you used. While it wasn't manufactured by the same company, you had a choice, and your choice of film, and how you processed it, and how you printed it, made the photo more about you and less about the camera. (not that it's about the camera now, but its MORE about the camera)

I don't see what's the problem here?

You guys do understand that while it's possible to make a brilliant portrait with a 50/1.8 mounted on an entry level camera, some shots of small, easily frightened birds that only appear at dawn aren't possible with anything less than a 400/2.8 + TC and a 'clean high ISO' camera?

I don't even take pictures of birds, but if there's one thing I dislike more than stupid brand wars, it's "my prefered type of photography is the only REAL PHOTOGRAPHY, what you photograph is below my noble art" elitism.

He's saying that the scope of their photography is very limited -or specialized, depending on how you look at it.

seravid posted:

Ok, but I still don't see the issue... Why is specializing bad? If shooting birds is what they really like to do, why should they photograph museums or dog surf instead of perfecting their art? While I mostly shoot macro, I also enjoy portrait and landscape so I get the appeal of diversifying, but I also understand how someone can like only one facet of photography... and that doesn't make them worse photographers for it. Pros certainly do it, you don't often see a fashion photographer doing wildlife stuff.

Anyway, I didn't mean to make a big deal out of this, I'm just confused by what was said, though it's possible I might have misinterpreted (english not being my native language).

It's just weird

I wonder how they're planning to keep an acceptable level of contrast. It's great if you can individually adjust each pixel to exactly the correct exposure, but then you will end up with something that is entirely gray.

And you can't just save it as an HDR file and call it a day, either, because eventually your output medium isn't going to be able to handle all the data, and you will have to TONE MAP

Anything that increases the dynamic range of a given pixel is great, but I'm seriously questioning if this is the right method.

I can see it easily working. And so what if you have a flat image with high dynamic range? That's what curves are for.

This is pretty much what happens when i digitize negatives...
