[jagged lake]

first one (lab scan) looks like a newspaper

mine looks more... real???

idk

[feral vector]

lab scans certainly have a look

[jagged lake]

mhm

[feral vector]

a lot of my lab scans definitely feel a bit more...classic

[jagged lake]

yeah for sure

[feral vector]

which is definitely a vibe

but they're also expensive

[jagged lake]

classic is a vibe indeed

yeah uhh idk if I can keep up $8/roll for scans

like, I get that its labor, id just rather not

[jagged lake]

this is very fun

think im done for now tho

[feral vector]

hmm, affinity license sale

Although Photo is a photoshop competitor, not lightroom

[jagged lake]

why does it cost more to bundle

[feral vector]

the single licenses are for a single app on a single OS

whereas the universal license is for all apps on all OS

[jagged lake]

ohhh ok

[fleet fractal]

wow cheap

[feral vector]

i don't need the other two apps, but i am tempted to get the universal license anyways since its only slightly more than photo 2 on all platforms

[verbal laurel]

Curious, samsung photo edit, is capable of editing nikon raw image

[feral vector]

like on galaxy phones?

[verbal laurel]

Just don't know if it runs on the full quality

[verbal laurel]

Yeap

[verbal laurel]

Like when exporting, I notice the files jpge endup smaller than using nikon program sometimes

But since in the preview the raw photo looses some details, is hard to tell if it is using full raw, or just something in better

Like compatibility mode

[elder ingot]

That's pretty neat

[feral vector]

What the fuck canon

Why is my camera manual 662 pages

😭

And I thought my analog EOS manual was long at 83 pages!

imagine, go to a shop to buy a SD card

and get the chance to test bigger lenses

[icy river]

Microcenter has 1 TB Micro-SD cards now...Not sure if they include the adapters or not.

[verbal laurel]

Nice

But if u need that much storage better go with other type of cards

Well that includes new gear hehhehe

[jagged lake]

They do

[icy river]

👍 Thanks!

[verbal laurel]

1 terá byte

How tech evolves

[jagged lake]

It’s crazy

I was holding 5 terabytes

[verbal laurel]

Crazy

[verbal laurel]

hey @deft garden does the z8 also looks will broke when u use the 180-600 hand held ?

[verbal laurel]

aaaaaaaaaaaa

[verbal laurel]

KAWAIIIIIIIIIII

https://tenor.com/ueye.gif

[verbal laurel]

@wise patrol

Bad boy

KAWAIIIIIIIIIIII

this lens is insane

ok i was close to it

but hey

wow

this photos are edit, if someone whats to checkout the raw files i can upload it somewhere

[wise patrol]

your bird photos bless me every time

[verbal laurel]

Thanks uu

[deft garden]

No. The z8 has 2 more stops of IBIS than than z7/6 and 4 more than the z5.

[verbal laurel]

I love have a zoom lens know

[verbal laurel]

I mean the body construction

Sometimes o think the lens put so much height in the camera body

[deft garden]

Oh yeah. I also get a little sick with that though but I support the lens in my left hand so all the weight I’m supporting, not the Z mount bracket.

[verbal laurel]

I try do that, but sometimes I catch myself holding by camera

[deft garden]

The z8 bird mode would have nailed that eye perfectly in focus.

[verbal laurel]

Especially when shoot moon

[verbal laurel]

;-; I know

On the 50 mm the z5 would do amazing

On that scenario

[deft garden]

I trained myself very early to support the camera and lens entirely in my left hand and control with the right. Even with the 50mm 1.8 tiny boy.

[verbal laurel]

I think the problem is more me holding the bigger lens

I shake to much

[verbal laurel]

When I got used the tiny 50 mm

Wish there was a way to use the right arm too

[jagged lake]

Who’s that

[verbal laurel]

The left is going to become buffed

[verbal laurel]

Owl

[deft garden]

3 points of contact. Right hand loose grip. Left hand all the weight, chicken wing your arm so your elbow is braced against your torso, plant your feet shoulder width apart.

[verbal laurel]

Noted ✅️

What about the tripod mount do u remove it ?

[jagged lake]

Get it

Who

WHO

WHOWHO

HOO

[verbal laurel]

Ohhhhhh

[jagged lake]

I’ll leave now lol

[verbal laurel]

#dad joke

[jagged lake]

Mhm

[verbal laurel]

Sorry, english not first language

Need some time to process some jokes XD

[deft garden]

I move the collar so it’s on top so not in the way of my hand but accessible if I need it.

[jagged lake]

Fair enough

[verbal laurel]

Nice

[jagged lake]

Sad, I got my camera and lens on the 5th which was a new moon

Couldn’t test

Next full moon is 20th

[feral vector]

[verbal laurel]

F

[verbal laurel]

aaaaaa

z5

[jagged lake]

Z5 is full frame right?

[verbal laurel]

yes

most of time i crop .....

[verbal laurel]

more OWLS

to change a little

[jagged lake]

aaaa

digital does such high ISO

so noisy

[low fox]

Love it

[paper bear]

Wish i had as much nature as you

Well i can go to the beach for sunrise but its so early

[deft garden]

So glad my coast does sunset beach. But still boring. It’s so flat. Nice colors though.

But I agree with you. I can never drag myself out of bed early enough to then drive some place well in advance of sunrise.

[paper bear]

The nice side of my beach is only good at sunrise, the crappy rocky part is sundown 🫠

Planes also fly on the good side of the beach

If i had the motivation i could get good shots

[feral vector]

It's great

Even though my camera isn't great at higher ISOs, it's still able to get good results at much higher than most film I can buy (400 iso or less)

[verbal laurel]

nah, that as my falt

i just decided to use more ISO

and let a fast shutter speed

since with those IA denoise stuff

can help fix that

[verbal laurel]

F

[verbal laurel]

thank u

[deft garden]

I’m under the departure path of a major airport so I can get decent planes that way or low flying GA or military planes along the coast off shore. But I’m not huge into planes.

[jagged lake]

“Not huge into planes”
-literally an ATC

[deft garden]

This job would be great if it wasn’t for the pilots. Also didn’t get into this job for planes. The pay was good when I joined. But it hasn’t kept up with inflation and I don’t think it’s worth it any more.

Issue for me is skill, can’t get a same or better paying job with the skill set I have from ATC. But ATC is taxing and we’re not compensated fairly for the work we do anymore.

It’s 60.96 an hour. But also think, our rate is 24 departures and 24 arrivals an hour. B737 can handle about 110-165 a plane, let’s say 135 people per plane because we do get a few E175 and some heavies fully loaded to Japan, England and Munich daily.

So in one hour, I’m responsible for about 6,480 lives. In one shift that’s 51,840 lives.

60 an hour seem worth it?

Even if we take the lives out of it. I’m 1 of 23 people, in the world, who can legally work the airspace I work.

[verbal laurel]

inflation

T-T

[deft garden]

I’m in a high COL area too. So even the National 20% over the last 4 years, year over year, wouldn’t have even helped me keep up and I’m only getting 1.6 a year over year.

[elder ingot]

@feral vector @deft garden thoughts?

[deft garden]

I honestly don’t think you’d like a rebel. It’s a mirrored DLSR.

Plus the lens that comes with is pretty brutal. You’d look at your starter shots vs your phone and only use your phone.

That’s why it’s hard for me to reccomend a starter camera to anyone like you, who’s tech savvy, but doesn’t really want to do the work or learn to edit to bring the full potential out of their photos.

[elder ingot]

I think I mentioned the other day that I'm willing to learn how to edit

[deft garden]

Still not a huge fan of the rebel. Let me ask a friend what she will say of her rebel vs going to the camera she has now.

[verbal laurel]

Cost of living ?

[verbal laurel]

come to Z5 side of force

e.e

[deft garden]

This is what they said

If you’re just wanting to know if you like photography, it’s probably fine. Just have to keep in mind it is a bargain basement camera. It’s also more about lenses. If you’re stuck with crap lenses you’re going to have a lot harder of a time.

[feral vector]

No point in buying a rebel brand new from a store

If you can find a deal on a used rebel kit, it can be a great learning device

[jagged lake]

rebel used for sure

[feral vector]

But the hardware is limiting

[elder ingot]

Hmm. I'll keep looking

[deft garden]

Search MPB or adorama used price points for what you want to spend.

[elder ingot]

Well not $1000+ for starters

[deft garden]

Plenty of DLSR are will destroy a rebel 7 for 500 ish.

Mpb has select filter and you can put 300-500 and less and search what’s available. Do research on what they have.

[elder ingot]

That's what I was gonna do

[jagged lake]

That kills the r50 for you

$1650 total for mine

[feral vector]

Precisely

[feral vector]

To be fair you bought a....$600 lens?

[jagged lake]

$650 :/

But so many are that price

Even the kit with 1845 is $700

[deft garden]

Glass is expensive. Nice glass more so.

[fleet fractal]

Fly

[deft garden]

Should have done a macro of its face.

What you should never macro or Google photos of is snail teeth.

[fleet fractal]

I would of scared the fly away if I got that close

[jagged lake]

hoarders are cool

[jagged lake]

2x 100yr old kodaks and a Polaroid

[fleet fractal]

How much if sell?

[jagged lake]

$50-$200

But I’m not crazy

I wouldn’t sell these

(Not even mine)

But I want to use them

[fleet fractal]

Wow that’s cool

[jagged lake]

So cool

[paper bear]

I wouldve swatted it lmao

[jagged lake]

Yoooo

On the subject of hoarding

I am now in possession of a roll of Gold 400 from the 90s-2007

Or maybe it’s kodacolor/colorplus

Looks to be from maybe early 2000s

my grandpa got a digital pointnshoot in I think 2005 (that’s what the manual says)

So probably right before then

Wonder what to use this for

[feral vector]

Gold/color plus are virtually the same.

[jagged lake]

Ah

Well

This is long expired and is 400

So it’s cool

[feral vector]

Pretty much all the consumer color films are based on Kodak gold

[jagged lake]

Yeah I figured

Except superia (rip)

[feral vector]

Gold, color plus, ultramax, and pro image from Kodak
C200 and c400 from fuji

It's all gold more or less

Superia when I bought it in Japan was priced like Kodak professional films, so I'm under the impression it's supposed to be more of a professional line than consumer, but I'm not positive

Could have been that's what the shop priced it at

[jagged lake]

So Fuji 400 is basically just gold 400 with a slightly different finishing layer?

[feral vector]

Pretty much

If the box says made in USA, it's gold

Nothing wrong with that

It performs a bit different and is priced competitively

A lot of people prefer the slight color difference of C200/C400 to gold/max

[jagged lake]

I like Fuji

Nice n cheap, easy to get, good for my mostly green pics

[feral vector]

I pretty much only buy the film discount of the week now

https://bluemooncameracodex.com/film-fridays

15% discount on a different film stock every Friday

🤑

[verbal laurel]

Why ?

[fleet fractal]

I take a picture then swat

[paper bear]

Lol

[deft garden]

Snails have more teeth than anything else on earth and it looks insane in macro.

[fleet fractal]

Use the new android feature to search the plane up

[fleet fractal]

Cessna 182

[jagged lake]

Thank you!

[jagged lake]

iPhone

And I was on pc

Picture came from camera

[deft garden]

The C182 skylane also doesn’t have a front fin.

[jagged lake]

It can

There’s a stol version

I think

[deft garden]

🤷 looks dumb. Never seen it before myself.

[jagged lake]

Yeah I was confused looking back at the pics

[fleet fractal]

Google thinks it’s a 206

[deft garden]

Google and AI being no help. 🤣 sadly the coworker who normally knows all this shit about GA isn’t in until I leave the tower.

[jagged lake]

Aww

[deft garden]

I know the basic ones from my last tower. But pretty useless info to have at a major airport. Can’t say we get a lot of unique GA here. Occasional SR22 or C172 but that’s about it.

[jagged lake]

Haha yeah

There’s a lot of Diamond aircraft at Indy international

There’s a flight school that uses em

Granted this plane was not there

[deft garden]

We’re too busy for that shit. Plus the 1979 accident the airport banned practice approaches into SAN

[verbal laurel]

i was shoting today with the 180-600 big boy

changed to 50 mm small boy

oh

my arms still thinked i was holding the heavy lenses for 10 minutes

[deft garden]

It’s a chonky boy. Little to no issue with the 70-200. But the 180-600 is hefty

[jagged lake]

oh yeah... that

YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

[jagged lake]

How do you get pictures with the focus square

[verbal laurel]

that is from the nx studio software

it shows here the focus "was supost to be"

sometimes the square is there, but the focus is not

XD

nah. if this was with better focus

nah

i love this lens

ps, this is above a 4 meter tree

judment

[jagged lake]

I just accidentally figured out how to do it lol

Arghhhhhhhh i spent a day charging 3 batteries to have them run out in 30 seconds per battery

[verbal laurel]

Complete new battery

[paper bear]

Im buying a dummy battery

Basically a AC adapter

Since i dont use the camera out of house alot

Mainly for filming my vids

[verbal laurel]

Don't it have a usb port

To use a external battery?

[paper bear]

It does but its only for charging

It also wont take my power bank

Needs a laptop i think to recognise

[verbal laurel]

Sad

[jagged lake]

Got extreme pro for $35

256gb

[feral vector]

This is the way

[jagged lake]

Indeed

Ultra plus was like $21 but this says it’s a whole lot faster

[feral vector]

Yeah, plus a good quality SD card should last a long time

[jagged lake]

Mhm

Micro center brand was also $21 so I don’t see the point

[paper bear]

and a gpu lmao

[jagged lake]

Hahaha I was waiting for that comment

Yes

It’s a 580, bought from a coworker

[paper bear]

sweet

whats that gonna be for

[jagged lake]

Honestly

No

Idea

[paper bear]

ofc

so another display peice?

[jagged lake]

Possible

[paper bear]

ill take that as a yes

[jagged lake]

Number 22

Gpu22

Hey that rhymes

[paper bear]

holy crap

[jagged lake]

It’s a lot

[feral vector]

How much was the gpu

[jagged lake]

$60

midrange of the eBay prices

[jagged lake]

this new sd card is SO FAST WOW

didnt have time to take a screenshot of the speed

lol

I saw briefly 219MB/s

[paper bear]

Lol i still have a 64GB 80mb/s one

I need a micro sd card adapter

[jagged lake]

not the best but pretty good

[jagged lake]

What app for the black backgrounds?

Photoshop? Lightroom?

[paper bear]

Or maybe its nightime

[fleet fractal]

1.5 tb for 80ish usd

[paper bear]

Sure thats real

An nvme is more expensive then that

[fleet fractal]

It is

[fleet fractal]

https://a.co/d/6MrFO9u

[paper bear]

Ehhh

Sounds too good to be true

[verbal laurel]

Is a v10

[fleet fractal]

Idk

[verbal laurel]

V10 normally are cheaper now

10 years ago they wasn't

;-;

[verbal laurel]

But true, sandisk have a lot of copy cats

[fleet fractal]

It is v10

[verbal laurel]

I know

I said that

[deft garden]

Lightroom, but it was already pretty close SOOC

[deft garden]

An NVMe is also way faster. That’s only a v10 sd card. A whopping 10 megabytes a second.

WD site also selling the same exact card for the same price as Amazon on sale from 120 usd

[jagged lake]

It’s 100% real

oh cool prime day wonder what camera stuff is on sale

[feral vector]

If only phones had microsd slots still

[fleet fractal]

My xiaomi in china does

[feral vector]

I could get it for the steam deck

But I don't have 1.5 TB of games that will be playable on the steam deck

Nothing from peak design on sale

Sd cards, probably some card readers, maybe some filters and camera bag straps from other brands

[deft garden]

PD tends to have good Christmas time sales.

[narrow pollen]

The SD card could go into a camera as well, right? The 10MB/s shoooould be fine?

[verbal laurel]

Mine s10 doss

Does *

But only to 1 tera 1 think

[verbal laurel]

Yes,

About the 10 MB depends on the camera

Since for 4k etc 10 mbs may be slow

Or some burst shoots

So I recomend check you camera before

[verbal laurel]

I would change the support of sd cards for a 3mm headphone jack

I just have a bunch of headphones useless know in my new phone

[narrow pollen]

https://www.westerndigital.com/en-ie/products/memory-cards/sandisk-extreme-uhs-i-microsd?sku=SDSQXAV-1T00-GN6MA
The V30 is 101€ for 1TB. Not a horrible deal either.

[feral vector]

10 MB/s is slow

[feral vector]

There's room for both. Especially since most phones still have a SIM card tray that could be a combo sim and microsd

[verbal laurel]

Fair

[jagged lake]

found some ok deals on filters and had a gift card

67mm uv/cpl/nd4, 49/67 step up x2, 55/67 step up x2
$44 total but I paid $24

[narrow pollen]

That is a decent deal.

[jagged lake]

Yep

Not unheard of but pretty good

doesn’t beat my like 80¢ 49mm uv filters but whatever

Only uv at that price

[feral vector]

Meanwhile I'm looking at $150+ R72 82mm filters

Might get an 82mm ND if one is on sale

[jagged lake]

oh also mine included a pouch and some cleaning wipes so that’s cool ig

[jagged lake]

Pretty cool looking

You should find some aerochrome(?)

[feral vector]

Uhh

I have infrared sensitive b&w

[jagged lake]

Oooh

[verbal laurel]

Nikon and samsung should partend

The samsung photo app on jpg have some nice features

Saddly the raw nikon, idk for me something looks of when saving a copy

Probably is just more compression

[deft garden]

depends entirely on the camera. I have a 45 mp camera, one RAW is between 40-80 MB in size. up to 8 seconds to save a photo when im trying to burst at 20 shots per second? Yeah, not fast enough.

[deft garden]

10 MB/s is reccomended for 1080 max. Wont do 4k.

[narrow pollen]

That is an interesting point. I went to check what I've been using. My previous camera came with a 4GB 6MB/s card which did get filled up over the years and emptied. Did upgrade to a 64GB 10MB/s micro card that was a passmedown from my phone. Upgraded to a new camera this year and I've been using a 256GB 10MB/s card, but I haven't done video and as a rule, I take one picture at a time. Travel, architecture, mostly still nature. 24MP camera (APS-C), but I do run it RAW+JPEG so 30-40MB per shot. It does not take over three seconds to write the image (the 10MB/s is a minimum), but it does take over a second. Makes me contemplate that 30MB/s discounted card very, very seriously.

By 'previous camera' I mean a cheap point-n-shoot that I got as a prize for a TV competition in 2014 along with a smartphone.

I think it was about time for an upgrade.

[deft garden]

I shoot fast moving things where burst is important, and 20 FPS well, obviously I need a fast read write. My Card writes up to 1500 MB/s. 😂

And even then, after about 8-10 seconds the buffer cant keep up at that speed. Though I have yet to need to slam the trigger for that long. But I am prepping for an air show in September so IDK.

[narrow pollen]

Air show does sound like moving things.

[deft garden]

Indeed. I’m hoping to get some cool shots of the compressed moisture air coming off the planes.

[jagged lake]

256gb cards seem to have the best speeds

[jagged lake]

Me want Z8iii

[deft garden]

You living in the future. Z8 barely came out in April this year and Z6III last month. 😂

[deft garden]

Fun fact, 165 gb card holds about 3400 45 mp raws.

[jagged lake]

Woah

[jagged lake]

Oh I confoos

I still want z8iii

[deft garden]

curious what advances the camera will have with a Z8iii

[narrow pollen]

Okay, practical advice, how to tell if the SD card is limiting the performance of recording video on a camera? Jitters on the recorded video?

[deft garden]

Jitters or just lower the quality on you.

[feral vector]

What camera model

[narrow pollen]

SONY ZV-E10. I found I made a mistake and I do have a V30 card in it so it should not be a problem in any way (30MB/s beats thee 100Mb/s it can record video at). I had no idea I had bought a V30 card and am pleasantly surprised.

[narrow pollen]

Holy sh, I also have a V30 in my phone. Did V30 SD and microSD cards used to be really cheap?

[paper bear]

This is a killer deal, $50aud for 250

Might replace my old 64GB 80mb/s

[feral vector]

They're certainly not that expensive the last few years

[deft garden]

v60 is a good medium speed for sure.

I have a v90 card laying around some place.

[jagged lake]

my new ones v90 I think?

v30 nvm

But still fast

So fast

[deft garden]

v90 is expensive.

I spent 230 usd on my 256 v90

[jagged lake]

Wow

It IS CF though right?

[deft garden]

No. Regular SD card style.

CFExpress doesnt follow the vxx system.

and this is too slow on my buffer to keep up.

its insane to see the jump from V90 to CFexpress though. 300 R 250 W to 1700 R and 1500 W.

[feral vector]

Ah

CF Express uses nvme

[deft garden]

it gets toasty.

The 325 GB CFexpress card is 100 USD off right now, only 250 USD and im thinking of getting it. I did an Event end of march and entierly filled my 165 GB card.

I dont want to do that again especially for the airshow where Ill def have burst on.

[verbal laurel]

how does u edit all that photos later ?

[deft garden]

I go through, 3 star the ones I like. Delete the bad ones. Leave the ones that are ok for later in case I go back and find something I can make work with better editing skills later. Change the edited raws to 5 star so I know what’s been done and what hasn’t.

[jagged lake]

Probably not all of them?

[verbal laurel]

Nice

[verbal laurel]

Make sense

Well, that review process probably takes a while

[deft garden]

Nah. It’s pretty quick tbh. On the laptop it’s pretty easy to see if I like a photo or not.

It’s rare that I find a photo start to edit and don’t like it. It happens, just not often.

Out of 3k photos I’ll edit maybe 50

Yesterday I took 535. I’ve edited 5 so far. 😂 mostly because I’m tired. I’ll go back through.

[jagged lake]

I edited a lot recently

I could get Lightroom but darktable seems good nuff

I wonder how it would be with editing on a 55” tv as opposed to 34” uw monitor

[feral vector]

color accuracy

[jagged lake]

Yeah

Very true

both are oled so should be decently(?) accurate

My 27” oled is most accurate though

[jagged lake]

I’m disappointed. This doesn’t work.

(It’s not supposed to)

[feral vector]

Tvs are designed to be pleasing, not accurate

My LG OLED blows out the reds in every profile

[jagged lake]

Fair

[paper bear]

Thats a gigantic flash lmao

[verbal laurel]

Hehehehe come to the open side of force

[jagged lake]

and what would that be

[jagged lake]

it really is

[verbal laurel]

Open source

[jagged lake]

ah ok

yep

currently using Darktable its pretty good

[verbal laurel]

I never learned how it works properly

But I like it have a integration with gimp

[verbal laurel]

(almost fell- I caught it)

[feral vector]

Shockingly manufacturing technology has advanced in the last 40 years

[tawdry forum]

no your lying tho, your actually travelling at the speed of light in space and we know it

beano stop tryna hide it with your bad tripod, we know you travel to other planets with briggs

[verbal laurel]

Wow

[narrow pollen]

How do people feel about lomography?

[feral vector]

Their film is weird

I shot a roll of lomo purple

I have more purple, some turquoise, and metropolis to shoot still

[narrow pollen]

I have a Lomo camera, but no film.

I prefer digital, I'm an IT geek.

[feral vector]

They do a digital?

TIL

[narrow pollen]

No, I have a digital SONY camera that I use so I don't have to touch the Lomo Smena 8M.

Pardon the confusion

[feral vector]

My roommate has a lomo instant film adapter and it's pretty shit

I've not heard great things about their hardware products overall

[narrow pollen]

Those are neat pictures tbh

[feral vector]

Their emulsions are fun

[narrow pollen]

It's soviet mass-produced hardware for youths without money. Yeah, it wasn't designeed to be great, it was designed to last.

[feral vector]

What

I thought they were Italian 💀

[narrow pollen]

The L in Lomo stands for Leningrad

[feral vector]

Oh I see

Are you talking about the current brand called lomography?

[narrow pollen]

No, I am talking about the original camera company LOMO, after which the term Lomography was coined, after which a new company making old-style cameras was named.

[feral vector]

Okay gotcha

Cause the modern brand lomography makes some plastic fantastic hardware that breaks super easily

[narrow pollen]

This is what the 60's to 80's produced LOMO camera looks like. It was the most popular model they made.

[feral vector]

Thought you were referring to these guys

I do not have experience with the other lomography

[narrow pollen]

It is plastic, but comes in a leather case and the plastic is thick. The lens has a metal housing.

[limber tartan]

[narrow pollen]

I'm not, either of those.

[fleet fractal]

Yes

Also

[fleet fractal]

Sorry

[jagged lake]

you good

[narrow pollen]

128GB, V30, not a bad freebie.

[jagged lake]

Mhm

Sadly I can’t get it free

[fleet fractal]

Why not

[jagged lake]

I don’t get the coupons

[fleet fractal]

Dang

How much does it cost with out being free

[jagged lake]

Uh

10.99

[fleet fractal]

Meh pretty cheap

[jagged lake]

$7 for me :p

But I got a different brand/type anyways

[feral vector]

Good for raspberry pi

Ah, a French motorracing circuit.

[verbal laurel]

nice

thye @deft garden what tripod do u use, mine looks like dont support really well the 180-600

it is enought stable

but not for star shoots

[fleet fractal]

It went bonk

https://tenor.com/view/bonk-gif-26414884

[verbal laurel]

that was the camera / lens hitting my face

lucky i wear glasses

[fleet fractal]

Unlucky

[verbal laurel]

to it took most of the impact

other wise

would be my right eye

that is my dominand eye

so

use safety googles

aaaaaaaaaaa

if this was less shake

and discord compression goes

[verbal laurel]

Saddly

Didn't got nice photos today

;-

Don't know if is the lens, or the atmosphere

But some photos looks like not in focus, but probably is just me zoom to much

[verbal laurel]

no good

i dont but few days ago got better shot

[fleet fractal]

looks good

[jagged lake]

help

I bid on X-570

$85 and I’m winning which is good so far

But then

I see FF digital

I need (wamt)

Pricey

But I WANT

Also lenses

I must have moar

I know that my 2 for the R50 are great and effectively replace the 5 for my X-370, but I can’t convince myself that it’s true

I need MOAR LENSES

I’m lacking 46-99mm

and 32mm prime (50mm ff equivalent)

Also need a macro lens so I can STOP PAYKNG THE LAB SO MUCH TO DO MEH QUALITY SCANS

THIS IS NOT A RABBIT HOLE

THIS IS A VIETNAM WAR ERA TUNNEL

HELP ME.

THJS IS ME PLEADING

(I won’t stop)

I have $100.50 (only checking don’t worry) thx to cameras

Ain’t dipping into savings at all. No touchy.

Are macro rings or bellows decent for film scanning if I were to use the rfs 18-45 or maybe one of my minolta lenses?

Or are those a total nope

I also need a film folder but a decent one should be relatively cheap

And easy

Sorry for the spamagraph

Also that x570 comes with a Minolta 50mm macro

So maybe I try that

Hope I win at <$100

Preferably 85 or so

[feral vector]

What

[feral vector]

Another minolta?

[jagged lake]

yes

because lenses

And aperture preview

[feral vector]

You don't need 2 digital bodies

[jagged lake]

And two film stocks same time different lenses

[jagged lake]

I probably don’t

Ok I don’t

Defo don’t need

Tbh I don’t need anything more than p&s bc I’m not pro but THIS IS FUN

[feral vector]

I'd start with finding a suitable macro lens for scanning

[jagged lake]

yeah that part is hard

Especially since apsc

Not ff digital

[feral vector]

Full frame lenses will work

But you would want like a 50-70mm macro for the crop factor

[jagged lake]

I do have a 70-200mm macro but the focus distance is too long and it doesn’t fill the apsc sensor

[feral vector]

There isn't a ton of macro options for RF

[jagged lake]

:(

[feral vector]

85mm macro might work, you would need a tall af scanning setup

Same with 100mm macro

[jagged lake]

wondering if I should have gone Nikon for 3party lenses but also Nikon is soooo expensive

[feral vector]

If you want 3rd party lenses Sony is the way

[jagged lake]

Rf 100 macro is $1000 and completely out of the question

:(

[feral vector]

Lol

But the L

And red ring

Red ring is worth

[jagged lake]

I know they’re fantastic

But I just can’t right now

[feral vector]

How close can you focus with the current lenses

[jagged lake]

Especially since it’s only for scanning

[jagged lake]

3ft with my macro

[feral vector]

Rf lens?

[jagged lake]

Minolta

70-200 5.6 I believe

Annoying to use vertically since it’s a push pull and gravity won’t let it stay at 200mm

So I tried the 18-45 and can get like a foot away but can’t fill the frame

[feral vector]

At 45mm?

[jagged lake]

Yes

[feral vector]

I am wondering if your longer lens would work if you had macro tubes

Macro tunes should be cheap but idk how well they will work

Might be a "buy from Amazon and return if it doesn't help" kind of experiment

[feral vector]

3 ring binder with plastic sleeves, cheap and perfectly fine

They make the sleeves for all different film formats

[jagged lake]

that said folder lol

autocorrect and I didn’t notice

Holder

So it will stay still for scanning

lil frame

Like $50 most

[feral vector]

Oh

Do you have a 3d printer

[jagged lake]

Brother has one that I can use

[feral vector]

Or is there one at micrometer you can use

[jagged lake]

That too

[feral vector]

Okay

You can just print one

Gonna want all black with high infill

[jagged lake]

Alr ty

Also a scanning stand maybe but also a good tripod should work?

Have a good large light table already

[feral vector]

A tripod is fine but might be a little finnicky

It would help if you can't focus super close

[jagged lake]

Well it’s currently the cheapest of cheap ones made for a cheap ring light

Soooo

It’s verrrry finnicky

[feral vector]

Just means setting it up will take a bit longer

Get something like this

[jagged lake]

Really? That’s better than a real light table?

This one’s like 16” x 24” or something

Rather large

Glass top

Fluorescent lights tho :/

[feral vector]

You can use an actual table I guess

We have basically a platform with a camera holder mounted to the side, then a light plate similar to those which sits on top

[verbal laurel]

Not full.moon

[jagged lake]

Was too cloudy last night:(

[icy river]

Beano... Chill. 🤣

[jagged lake]

No

[verbal laurel]

Beano is excited

[jagged lake]

Indeed

[jagged lake]

This is what I’ve got now. Ignore the yellow it’s just a flicker that goes away at 1/60 or lower

[jagged lake]

Also I think I figured out what to use the Kodak MAX 400 for

biiiig car show in September.

Lots of old cars n stuff

15ish year expired film with that will be interesting

Any tips on what to do exposure wise? Should I overexpose?

[feral vector]

How many rolls

Also how was it stored

If it was left in room temp conditions it may be roasted

[jagged lake]

Just one

24exp

Room temp but I think it was in the basement so a little cooler

It is in a canister so no air exposure

[feral vector]

If it was fridge/frozen, the rule of thumb I've seen online is overexpose by one stop per decade

15 years at room temp might be roasted tho

[jagged lake]

Wdym roasted

Also 15y is just an estimate. No real idea how long but it seems MAX was discontinued around then.

[feral vector]

Much more noticeable grain than usual

Especially in low light

[feral vector]

Does it have expiry date

Cause the Kodak 400 I shot in December was also about 15 years old

If the car show is outside in lots of light, metering at 200iso is probably fine

If it's indoors and low light, maybe meter at 100iso

But I've only shot expired film once

[jagged lake]

Wow how are you not rich if you’re doing that

(ha ha )

[jagged lake]

Outdoors yep

[jagged lake]

No date on canister or roll itself

[feral vector]

-.-

Full moon

Blood moon?

[elder ingot]

Blood moon is when it's red

[verbal laurel]

oh

[abstract skiff]

Lastnight with all the smoke in the sky

[jagged lake]

Wait it’s smoke

Where??

My SD card might be too fast

[fleet fractal]

why?

aint that good

[jagged lake]

Camera (or card idk which) keeps getting close to overheating and it slowed down

[fleet fractal]

that can't be the issue right?

maybe ur camera is a bit

weird

or too hot outside

[jagged lake]

Could be too hot ourside

Not sure

It’s way faster at buffer emptying than the last card I upgraded from but it seems to get hot

[jagged lake]

mmmmm, bokehhhh

[jagged lake]

This guy was POSIN'!
