bruh 99 is old

[jagged lake]

Bruh YOURE old

[strong fractal]

for a camera, yes

96

[jagged lake]

I have film cameras that are as much as 108

1999 isn’t that old

[strong fractal]

for a camera anything older than 10 years old is old

[jagged lake]

only old if it’s digital at that age

[strong fractal]

older than 25 and it's ancient

[jagged lake]

Kind of

that’s crazy

Most of mine are around 40-50

[strong fractal]

older than 30 and dusty mcgrubbyartifact

[jagged lake]

I’ll take it if it’s too old for you

[strong fractal]

I paid 100 for it and used it for school

I am only selling for like 300 or more

[jagged lake]

Good deal on it

Why not an f4 at that price

[strong fractal]

it got me my AFA too

[jagged lake]

Half that price

2x F4 vs 1 f100

[strong fractal]

I have big hands and it was local

[jagged lake]

F4 big too

[strong fractal]

I got the camera delivered to me in a day

[jagged lake]

No I mean for the 300

100 is a no brainier

[strong fractal]

ahh

It has sentimental value but I don't really use it anymore so at 300 I could get a new lens

[jagged lake]

I really wanna get some Nikon stuff

Probably a dslr

Maybe d600

Idk

[strong fractal]

go to garage sales

[jagged lake]

nobody has cameras here at them :(

[strong fractal]

I got a 24-120 f4 for 200$ in Tokyo

[jagged lake]

I don’t wanna pay a ton

Sony is my main

Probably just get a 7500 or 5600 etc

Idk

D70?

Whatever is cheap

[strong fractal]

cheap is such a broad category

cheap to me is under 1k

[jagged lake]

well you have a z9 for fun lol

1k is not cheap

for me

thats a LOT

and thats a big reason I think I will leave RF

alllllll the lenses are 1k++

[strong fractal]

I think m4/3 is great for extreme budget

[jagged lake]

I wouldnt call myself extreme budget either

[strong fractal]

at a point though flagship phones start to take better pics

[jagged lake]

midrange is seriously lacking

1k is doable, not cheap

but I could

600 is preferable

150 is cheap

300 is fairly cheap

my a77ii was $387 and its crazy for that price

(now they sell for $500, like 5mo later haha)

[strong fractal]

for me Z8 is mid range

[jagged lake]

thats wild

z8 is the literal second best

midrange is z6iii z7ii *thats older tho

[strong fractal]

Hasselblad is high end

or Leica

[jagged lake]

alllright thennn

of course they are

[strong fractal]

luxury would be Phase1

[jagged lake]

but not the only high end

leica is a luxury brand

a fashion brand

[strong fractal]

extreme budget- 500 or less, budget-1k, midrange- 4k? I struggle with that one, high end- 10k, luxury anything above that

[jagged lake]

are you a professional/do you get paid?

because that moves the scale a LOT

[strong fractal]

sometimes

[jagged lake]

I am a hobbyist

this is for fun

and im not a dentist

[strong fractal]

I got listed at a gallery this weekend

[strong fractal]

I feel no shame in placing myself in the I can afford budget only rn

I also think there are a lot of budget cameras that can do the job if you are a specialist

I classify mostly in how many features are available for a new camera combined with sensor size etc

So the Z8 is only midrange because battery life is kinda poor and at release there are "high end" cameras for a few hundred more

[deft garden]

[verbal laurel]

What is that ?

[jagged lake]

It’s a Zonkey!

[verbal laurel]

Hey beano. How is the t3 ?

[jagged lake]

Seems pretty good

No time to really use yet but I did a couple test shots

[verbal laurel]

Thinks worth buy it ?

[jagged lake]

depends on price

Mine was $0 so yes

I wouldn’t pay a ton for it but it seems nice

[verbal laurel]

hehehe

thanks

[jagged lake]

dude people have started using my photos as their profile pics

I love it ❤️

its so cool

[elder ingot]

I'm gonna take that llama one and use that for my profile pic here

The llama gif I mean

[jagged lake]

Sure lol

[elder ingot]

Done lol

[jagged lake]

hahahha

didnt even know that was possible

[elder ingot]

Yep. Can also set gifs as your banner

Click on my profile, you'll see what I mean

[jagged lake]

Coool

[elder ingot]

Leopard tank go brrrrr

[verbal laurel]

Took my old kodak

To a party today

Technically of photos are horrible, my old zenfone 2 probably shoots better photos

But man

It was fun to play around

Give it to friends for they to play too

It was instead of quality, memories

[nocturne escarp]

😤

[jagged lake]

That’s always fun

[verbal laurel]

Yeao

Yeap*

Just have no ideia what .mov format the camera uses, since my phone don't open it haha

[tawdry forum]

does it count if it's the most random thing ever

thats a lamp with a random hat btw

bit obvious but idk

[elder ingot]

Pretty cool

[verbal laurel]

Had to think for a second

Hey @deft garden any recommendations for raw nikon editors on android ?

Samsung editor in theory recognized the nikon file. But looks weird, probably some generic implementation

[deft garden]

Don’t phone edit sorry. But I would try light room Mobil

[verbal laurel]

https://youtu.be/RooCMopcnkU?si=kyoHsj1Qh4WhUss5

[verbal laurel]

Checking on it now

[verbal laurel]

Found this, did one used before ?

[verbal laurel]

Horrible

Will stay with snapseed and jpg

[deft garden]

Never heard of that one. I’m pretty sure Lightroom Mobile is free though and has full raw support.

[tawdry forum]

snapseed has raw support i think

I use snapseed for all of my photos now

nothing too special though, just an easy UI

[deft garden]

I think you’re correct that it does. I just honestly don’t mobile edit. All on the computer.

[tawdry forum]

fair enough, for me it's just easier

I've done RAW editing on Snapseed, but I've heard they made it better?

[deft garden]

I’m on a 45mp camera so editing on a more powerful pc and bigger screen is just nice.

[verbal laurel]

it have

just not for nikon raw

samsung raw is ok

[verbal laurel]

hehe, on editing terms, my phone is probably more optimized than my pc

ipads looks nice to edited photos

that m4

chip

[deft garden]

My ex has that iPad. It’s pretty fantastic.

[elder ingot]

I have my 200mp phone that has a 12 and also 50mp camera

[deft garden]

Ok.

[elder ingot]

It does take some pretty high quality images as I'm sure you've seen

[deft garden]

mmmhm, AI moon.

[elder ingot]

Aside from that lol

[verbal laurel]

Hahahah

[elder ingot]

I feel like a good place to take really good pictures is Comiccon

[deft garden]

Yeah pretty decent.

[strong fractal]

Ai makes photo proof for historical events impossible. I'm very worried about authenticity in the future

[wise patrol]

yo listen, you don't have to downplay what you take photos of!

It's art and art is up to the photographer!

But this is such a cool photo!

[wise patrol]

is that bruce campbell

[deft garden]

Yes

[wise patrol]

amazing

[deft garden]

I accidentally made him a sticker rather than posting the photo though. 😂

But he was doing an interview at San Diego comic con out in public and saw him and got some photos.

[wise patrol]

I was wonderinggggg

[wise patrol]

but that's awesome!!

[deft garden]

You wanna know the best part?

[wise patrol]

Tell me more

[deft garden]

That was my first time at comic con despite growing up in San Diego. I got home, showed my ex wife the photos I got and she was all “oh my god is that Bruce Campbell?!” And I was like … “who? So I did photo someone famous!?” She had to explain to me who he was.

[wise patrol]

Omfggggg I can't believe

[deft garden]

I grew up poor, and neglected. I didn’t get the fun stuff until I was an adult. 😂

[limber tartan]

Yall have fun stuff?

😂

[deft garden]

In San Diego? Yeah. Two world famous zoo. Amazing beaches. A 50k square food park with museums and stuff, comic con, and delicious Mexican food. What more could you want?

[limber tartan]

To not be in California

[wise patrol]

Oh I just meant the Bruce Campbell part

Totally get not having the fun stuff until later in life

[deft garden]

Here’s to having awesome adulthoods.

[wise patrol]

[jagged lake]

Yes

I like that shot

[nocturne escarp]

[verbal laurel]

It is i always love the cosplay

There

So much dedication

[verbal laurel]

Nah. Is possible to fake even with a film camera, IA just make it easier

That is why is better always double check with multiple sources

[verbal laurel]

I have no ideia who is hahaha

[deft garden]

B rated horror movies.

[verbal laurel]

Ohh

[strong fractal]

yea but the increase in fake stuff is exponential

less skill required to make something fake

The average person only has so much time and Google is prioritizing whatever has the most clicks so misinformation is growing rapidly.

[verbal laurel]

Do what

https://tenor.com/view/elmo-shrug-不造-i-dont-know-gif-5094560

[strong fractal]

Do what?

[verbal laurel]

I direct translated a Brazilian expression

"Fazer o que "

Something like, what can we do but not really possible to fix or wanting to fix

[tawdry forum]

que has that little hat though

🤓

remember its still my language just in a different version so i can still be annoying about it 🤓

[elder ingot]

Qué

Right?

[tawdry forum]

no

thats not a hat

thats an eyebrow

🤨

like that

tbh idk how to make it on pc

@elder ingot quê

[elder ingot]

I was doing the Spanish one

[tawdry forum]

eh?

wdym Spanish...

vê use é too

phone thinks I'm going Portuguese now

[verbal laurel]

Depends

I dont remember the rules

Exactly

[tawdry forum]

o quê means what
fazer o quê means doing what

[verbal laurel]

Can be

Too

Directing translating

It's

But I mean in the sense of " what can I do. And i dont want to do anything at all"

[elder ingot]

Spanish has the qué with the little accent thing

[tawdry forum]

oh I thought you meant just the symbol mb lmao

[verbal laurel]

Beanoo, what about the t3 ?

[tawdry forum]

"o que é que posso / consigo (can means both) fazer. Eu quero fazer absolutamente nada"

you can also put "eu" before posso but I mean like no one really says that tbh

[verbal laurel]

I know

"Para " is a fun world to

"To " and "for" at same time

@tawdry forum Ouve para você ver "listen to you see "

"Tem mais acabou", "have but is out stock "

[strong fractal]

There are things that we can do about Ai though. It's not Thanos lmao

[verbal laurel]

thanks !

[elder ingot]

Not as good but a bird nonetheless

[verbal laurel]

i think some of this bird already have run after me

[elder ingot]

It's called a Killdeer. Native to North America

[verbal laurel]

meets its cousin :

"quero quero" = "want want"

its is really teritorial, mostly when it have kids

[verbal laurel]

@jagged lake been testing the Dx0 photolab8

[verbal laurel]

not my photo

[verbal laurel]

@jagged lake

[verbal laurel]

so far, really nice program, have some nice colors profiles, but it shines on the denoise

those hummy birb photos were really noise

[jagged lake]

aaah still haven’t done a good test I just got a replacement lens

[verbal laurel]

[jagged lake]

So many birbss

[verbal laurel]

meanwhile my photos get to 12mb

[strong fractal]

Nice!

Buy less storage

[tawdry forum]

it's a phone

[narrow pollen]

Buy less phone

Buy less SD card storage for the phone

[tawdry forum]

i dont use an sd card

[strong fractal]

That explains it

[tawdry forum]

its the best I can do for now 😭

[verbal laurel]

Just edit it and use tons of effects

[tawdry forum]

that's what I do

I post my photos here

[verbal laurel]

I know

Is just so you can get more weight on the files

[elder ingot]

9mb here

[tawdry forum]

pixel 7a>s24 proven by file size (means nothing)

[elder ingot]

My S22 Ultra had 7mb files

[narrow pollen]

12-14MiB here.

[verbal laurel]

[jagged lake]

25MB on one of mine

About 20 on another

[strong fractal]

Other than Apple what's yalls favorite smartphones?

Light gaming, medium camera use

[verbal laurel]

Samsung

[elder ingot]

S24 Ultra. Except mine gets heavy camera use

[strong fractal]

My wife's S22 is cracked so I am shopping a bit

[tawdry forum]

id just say google pixels but yk im always gonna be a fanboy

I'm not smart when it comes to phones

[elder ingot]

Pixels have the best camera software, Samsung has the best cameras. I want a phone that combines the two

[tawdry forum]

wdym camera software

[elder ingot]

Processing basically

[tawdry forum]

oh yeah thats good

[strong fractal]

I thought one of the Chinese phones had the best hardware

[icy river]

Beans?

[strong fractal]

Huawei i think

[paper bear]

Cirrus cloud

[tawdry forum]

took this on a canon EOS M5

i had to use Lightroom and I'm not good at using it lmao

[verbal laurel]

@wise patrol

[jagged lake]

I like it :)

Simple

2 is better framing less stuff is cut off

[tall ember]

Trying to decide. Currently have an EOS-M, do I get a newer model of the same or a different body entirely.

[jagged lake]

EOS M lenses only work on M bodies

You can’t adapt them to RF the flange is too short

So if you use M lenses I’d get an M6ii or something

And if you use EF/EFS lenses get an R10 or similar

[verbal laurel]

need to save money

but

photograph equips

[elder ingot]

I'm in the same boat

But I did just buy a new monitor too

[verbal laurel]

nah i need to save

dolar is too strong against real

and to help we have a 92% import tax here (combining all taxes)

re editing some old photos in dx0

liking so far

happy that i didn't deleted those

[tall ember]

Yeah, most of my lenses are EF mounts with adaptors, just the prime that came with the body thats EF-M so its not a huge issue, an M6ii likely woud be a good shout anyway

[verbal laurel]

Nice

[strong fractal]

Neat

I like the coloured one more than the B&W.

[tawdry forum]

[jagged lake]

Very nice

[tawdry forum]

sorry for being annoying

i tried som funky stuff with framing on one thats why i ask

[jagged lake]

I love the building

I love my Tamron 150-600 (on Sony a)

Wonderful lens

i take pics of plens

[jagged lake]

Planes are really cool I would love to do more planespotting

But there’s no spots here ;(

[bitter spoke]

what is the closest airport to you

[jagged lake]

it’s kind and like an hour away, they also don’t like planespotters :(

[bitter spoke]

rip

im glad my airport likes planespotters

[jagged lake]

I visited Charlotte last year that place was COOL

They had an overlook and encouraged spotting

[bitter spoke]

I live near vancouver airport

[icy river]

What resolution can it go up to?

[jagged lake]

hardware 2400dpi I believe

but it can interpolate to 6400dpi (but not true resolution)

I was doing 6x6cm film scans and it was 7000x7000 resolution for that, not even set to the max

[icy river]

Wow

[verbal laurel]

nice

[paper bear]

Suns up late today

[bitter spoke]

planespotting session?

Nah

I have a weekly course at a training facility close to the logistics area of my airport

Ex qantas 717 going into the hanger for training purposes

Better pic of it

[elder ingot]

[narrow pollen]

smh why are SONY cameras like this? In PAL mode, it allows for 25 or 50fps. In NTSC mode it allows me to choose 25, 30, 50, 60fps (4K). I'd expect either both to have all options, or the NTSC to not have the 25 and 50 options.

[feral vector]

I'm sorry why is there PAL and NTSC in digital on 2025

[feral vector]

@jagged lake it is time

[jagged lake]

I’m going by my store on Saturday for a class so I’ll be getting some

[feral vector]

I picked up 2x 35 and 2x 120

I need an L lens at some point

But my sigma is optically equivalent to the same L lenses for EF

Although it's much heavier

[jagged lake]

would be cool

L is too pricey for me

[jagged lake]

actually a nice price :)

$300 flat

Keep it low ish but it should be fine

About 3200 or so

Iirc it maxed at 6400? could be wrong it was midday.

I didn’t really use high iso

But the colors are wonderful

nice and warm but not unrealistic

[verbal laurel]

[tawdry forum]

kendrick lamar and sza!

first concert ever for me

[junior gale]

Niiiice, that's a pretty big first concert 😮

[limber tartan]

My first concert was Smashing Pumpkins, Rancid and Green Day last year

And then i saw Creed, Mammoth WVH and Three Doors Down last year as well

Ive got 2 this year again as well 👀

[junior gale]

Smashing Pumpkins hell yeah

I saw Billy Corgan last month, would have loooooved to see the whole band with him

[tawdry forum]

super happy i got the chance to go!

crowd was wild

[elder ingot]

My first concert was Motionless in White

I really hope I can see Ghost at some point

Wouldn't be able to get any pictures because they have a no phones or cameras rule, but I don't mind

I love the boing 787

[verbal laurel]

WOW

[jagged lake]

No phones ok but no cameras :(

No video cameras is understandable

Or no big distracting cameras

but lemme bring a film point and shoot

[elder ingot]

The reason being is they want people to live in the moment. Go back to concerts from the 80s when phones didn't exist how they do now. They trialled it for the filming of their concert movie "Rite Here Rite Now" and they loved it

[jagged lake]

fair

[elder ingot]

It makes perfect sense when you think about it

[limber tartan]

Youd be dying to pull your fancy schmancy S24U+ out tho. You were on it the entire time you saw MIW it seems 😂

[elder ingot]

That's was when I had the S22U lol

[limber tartan]

Meanwhile when i saw Smashing Pumpkins, Rancid, Green Day, Creed, Mammoth WVH and Three Doors Down. I didnt use mine at all :P

[elder ingot]

Also S24U+? Is there a sudden new version of the phone I don't know about? Lmao

[limber tartan]

Thats truly living in the moment.

Oh hush 😂

No but there is a new galaxy watch

[elder ingot]

Phone would also be secured in a yondr pouch and only used at certain points

It’s so nice out here

And this is in the city!

Its perfectly normal to sit on the lake shore tho? Lol

[jagged lake]

I should specify

-go to park
-don’t do anything
-just sit directly on the sand and chill

feels like nobody does that

just… bask.

Yeah lol

[elder ingot]

Rare for a bird

[icy river]

Here? Not necessarily.

People probably feed that bird so often.

[indigo temple]

I was walking on a sidewalk

No feeders nearby

[icy river]

Interesting.

[elder ingot]

I mean it could've been tired

[icy river]

Judging by how heavy-set the bird looks, it seems like it has eaten quite a bit in the past.

[indigo temple]

Like beano said it’s a baby robin or something

[tawdry forum]

tiny little lens I put on my phone

and of course, as the professional photographer I am, you can see a bit of my finger 🤦‍♂️

[jagged lake]

I mean it’s a fisheye lens

gonna be hard to keep that out of frame on a phone

[jagged lake]

It’s a fledgling its parents still feed it

Also a lot of baby fluff

[elder ingot]

2000s skateboarder video vibes

[icy river]

Oh, okay.

[tawdry forum]

i do have some friends i could record for fun with

problem is

nvm theres no problem

i was gonna say i cant disable video stabilisation which ruins the effect sometimes at 4k 30fps but i can, i cant do 60fps and 0.5x zoom but thats fine ig

[elder ingot]

You can technically

[tawdry forum]

"i was gonna say... but i can"

I know I can, I know I did disable it too

[strong fractal]

weird macro stuff

[wise patrol]

I just love the different mountain ranges in that first one

[deft garden]

Me too. It’s soft and simple. Yet shows vastness.

[jagged lake]

:D

2 minolta cameras

2 minolta lenses

1 Tamron lens

1 Sony lens

Minolta flash

(I have even more for this system hahaha)

These are my good ones

[verbal laurel]

Do you guys think is worth pay lightroom ?

[verbal laurel]

I loved the dxo app, but 220 dollars ( not bad price if you earns in real currency, but earns in Brazilian joke currency [reals], is sad)

[tawdry forum]

im used to snapseed but lightroom is much more capable

if you think you can use it and will like it then i dont see why

[verbal laurel]

Normally I would use nikon nx studio, but after using dxo, no studio looks like a snail

And often crashes

[verbal laurel]

Payment wall, was thinking about go 1 year or 1 month

Well decided to test 1 month

Snapseed I use a lot. But saddly it dont have support for nikon raw

[icy river]

If you're a student or teacher, I believe you can get a discount.

If you're a student, you may even be able to get it free if the school pays.

[icy river]

@jagged lake, I got a free camera from my dad.

Nikon D700

[jagged lake]

👀

Please share photos when get

[bitter spoke]

Did I cook chat?

[narrow pollen]

That's not a potato though.

[elder ingot]

Yes

[verbal laurel]

I'm not anymore

Lightroom mobile is nice, but I'm missing a basic feature

Be able to delete photos from the editing screen

Since there is no bigger preview of photos

[jagged lake]

Nice yeah

[ember plaza]

Perchance

[jagged lake]

man oh man I love this new lens

and that rabbit let me get SO close

too close for the 150-600

he was a curious little guy

[limber tartan]

Cute little bunno

[bitter spoke]

[jagged lake]

literally perfect

Arthur - Sony A700 + 80-200/2.8 G

I LOVE THIS LENS

and that dog

(I dont even know the owner- he was some random old guy at the park who told the doggy to sit for a photo)

man I love dogs

Guy knows how pretty doggo is tho, I showed him the photo on the back of the camera and got "looks like a show dog!"

and hes right

[limber tartan]

Very pretty

[jagged lake]

This is the Nikon Reflex Nikkor-C 11/2000mm. An auction piece, a rare second version of Nikon’s legendary super-telephoto mirror lens, designed for subjects so far away, they might not even know you exist.

In stock & ready to ship to the next brave collector.

[bitter spoke]

T3i mentioned!!!

That's what I used to have

[jagged lake]

It seems like a nice body

Got it free from a friend so no complaints

it’s my sisters camera because I have plenty of my own lol

[tawdry forum]

never seen this type of bathroom signs in a restaurant

[verbal laurel]

Thanks

[verbal laurel]

Nice image quality

For a camera that old

[verbal laurel]

🤣

[jagged lake]

Yeah it is

But the main one I use is 11 years old :p

[verbal laurel]

Hahaha

Mine is 4

So

[jagged lake]

And the one I got the dog pic with is 18

[verbal laurel]

Need to change, is it's starting needing repair

[verbal laurel]

Cute dogo

[jagged lake]

he is

[verbal laurel]

Good boy dogo

[jagged lake]

I repost because he always cute

[verbal laurel]

🤣 fair

[jagged lake]

I wanna do this so bad

totally a Minolta design but Sony got the credit because they bought the company lol

just slapped a name

[jagged lake]

man I want an a900 / a9 digital so bad

[wise patrol]

you should take photos for restaurants on door dash/grubhub etc because I immediately need whatever is in that first pic

[tawdry forum]

bro that restaurant was actually delicious

you could chose the things you wanted in the burrito / bowl and it had a lot of free things (the base costs 9 euro) and then other cheap aditions

I made mine super spicy but ohhh my god it was the best burrito ever

[wise patrol]

that sounds so good

[narrow pollen]

I really like that shot.

[jagged lake]

Skink?

Love it

@tawdry forum When you gonna get a camera

[tawdry forum]

lmao you wish

[narrow pollen]

I assumed it was a gecko of some sort.

[jagged lake]

No like seriously

Phones are good but cameras have larger sensors and better glass

[narrow pollen]

And zoom lenses.

[jagged lake]

What country?

[narrow pollen]

Switzerland, North of Alps.

[tawdry forum]

yeahhh ikk but its expensive idk

[narrow pollen]

I am not a local here, just travelling through.

[jagged lake]

I wanna say you’re from… Estonia????? Is that right?

Or am I crazy and wrong

I thought you said so a while ago like a long time ago

[jagged lake]

Used are cheaper but fair

[elder ingot]

Danger noodle

Nope rope

Whatever you want to call it

[narrow pollen]

I doubt it is dangerous. And not a rope, it had four feet, and not the American kind.

[elder ingot]

So some kind of lizard is my guess

[narrow pollen]

Yeah, hence the gecko guess.

[jagged lake]

learning how to stack images

must say

[vestal hatch]

planespotting at night @sydney airport @deft garden @paper bear

gave my poor r6's iso a good run for its money... handheld (forgot tripod)

mostly shot between 150-200mm, f2.8, iso 12800-25600, 1/60

[jagged lake]

DARK

[paper bear]

Better pics than what i could ever take 😂

[verbal laurel]

someone have experience with photograph icecream / icecream shops ?

i would like some tips

about what is nice

what can go wrong

[deft garden]

I can’t find my tripod. Was hoping to get out this weekend for Milky Way photos. 🫠

[jagged lake]

Repaired a minolta X700.

Tried repairing an XG-M but it needs more work than I thought. Probably repairable

Either way great deal on the X700 as it was effectively free and only lacked a focus screen

Either way I now have 8 functioning Minolta SR mount bodies

And 4 or 5 dead ones

And a bazillion lenses. I’ll sell some of each I promise.

Probably???gonna sell the R50

I love it but don’t use it NEARLY as much as the a77ii or a700

The Sony bodies are objectively worse but like… lenses are so cheap and GOOD. And the bodies have so many buttons and dials and switches, much more fun experience for me

It is a addiction problem ? Probably

But who cares

[jagged lake]

Exactly

[narrow pollen]

More not lizards.

[elder ingot]

GOATS

[verbal laurel]

🛩️

[jagged lake]

family photos!

(These 4 are the same)

1 will be given 1 will probably be sold

[deft garden]

Finally ordered the 24-70mm lens. It’ll be nice to go wide 😂😂

[bitter spoke]

Murica

[verbal laurel]

Nice

[verbal laurel]

I was thinking of buying one 35 mm

@tepid spire there ?

[tepid spire]

Hi

Wren

[verbal laurel]

Cute

[verbal laurel]

Question, do use a equatorial tripod for astro photos ?

[tepid spire]

Yes, well the thing itself is called a mount. The tripod is just the legs

[verbal laurel]

Sorry my bad

[verbal laurel]

How dos it work for deep space ? Does it automatically follows earth rotation ?

[tepid spire]

If you set it up correctly, and power it yes

[verbal laurel]

Oh it batteries ;-;

[tepid spire]

U point to the celestial pole, in whichever hemisphere ur in

So northern hemisphere, roughly north star (Polaris)

Southern hemisphere, its a bit more challenging. Use NINA software or something

[verbal laurel]

Any recommendations

Of models ?

[tepid spire]

Yeah or normal wall power

[tepid spire]

I recommend starting smaller

If u havent done it before

https://youtu.be/xzBCkVupOzo

https://youtu.be/pXcRKoxTPVg

I definitely recommend watching this guy. He makes great videos for budgets and beginners

He goes through the basics, and how to start simple, then slowly upgrade

If u jump straight into the professional stuff, the learning curve is too high, and it might be uninspiring

[verbal laurel]

Thankss

[verbal laurel]

thanks that will help

[verbal laurel]

done with a few objects, but no idea what there were XD

[jagged lake]

guess who forgot to clean their mirror

couple of Tufted Titmice

I GOT AN OSPREY

[elder ingot]

I thought of the V22 osprey for a second

[jagged lake]

DUDE I LOVE THIS

SWAN SWAM SO CLOSE

and I had perfect light

[bitter spoke]

butterfly so pretty

did you use a macro lens for that shot?

[jagged lake]

isn’t he? so wonderful :)

I did not

I used a 150-600 big boi lens

Just got as close as possible at 600mm

Rather large butterfly tho

[narrow pollen]

Why do birds look at me like I'm the weird one?

[jagged lake]

LOL those gbh are absolutely JUDGING you to bits!

Why do they look straight at you?!

[tawdry forum]

supposedly there's a restaurant at the top

i have a feeling I already posted this here

[jagged lake]

I havent seen it

I like it

[wise patrol]

love the crop and colors on the second one!

[tawdry forum]

4:3 just works better smh smh

Magpies

[bitter spoke]

Dont these attack you if you breathe in their presence

During nesting season

[paper bear]

They do yeah

But if you get to know them they’re friendly

[bitter spoke]

They are very cool birds

I think I saw some in Banff albera once

Or some other bird that looked like those
