I had found it as soon as you posted the repo ty ā¤ļø
I tried to find it, couldnāt find one from manufacturer
Have to take one ourselves
you mean without background etc.?
@errant fox are images like this (obviously without the background) fine, or do they need to be side view?
Side view
See here https://github.com/Flohhhhh/sharply/blob/main/docs/gear-images/gear-image-processing-steps.md
Could be that?
needs to be without the lens
Bruh
Make sure to use the front facing image with no lens (sensor showing). If one is not available, choose the best available front-facing image. Prefer w body cap, then w/ lens if needed.
Where die you find it?
Okie
Anything that canāt be found that way we have to take ourselves somehow
Eventually there will be guide on how to do so
read through the docs
feel free to ask questions, but don't ask questions that aren't covered by the docs
i don't see docs on this - when a lens is available in multiple mounts, which mpb link/price/etc should be used?
Yeah so far Iāve been using just search with the name of the item
also other specs, weight sometimes differs for example
good idea
Weight with battery
Yeah thatās a tough one
Do highest for now
So people can only be surprised in a good way not a bad way lol
lol
i assume the Best use cases field is moderator-only?
it's been grayed out for me for everything
all good
Will not be public facing anyway, if anything it would be for internal tools
just to confirm i'm not stupid, this is the same as 0.2564102564, or 1/3.9?
Sounds good to me
you should make it where if a field is disabled (e.g. drop in filter thread size on lenses that don't support that), they don't show up under the Show missing only switch
does this have too much white cast around the edges from the background reflecting onto it?
Whatās the resolution?
962x485
will try
Follow steps exactly and it should come out nice
the steps don't have the step that actually removes the background
i'm very new to ps so still learning
is Select > Inverse and then Delete the best way to do it?
I don't know how to get it otherwise but when I open an image the little pop up bar at the bottom always comes up and I just hit 'Select Subject'
you can do Select > Subject
then I contract the selection 2 and then on the same little pop up bar I hit the create mask from selection
resize 1000px, save as copy webp
I don't use Photoshop so I don't know what is what and what it's called or where it's at normally. I just see the little pop up bar first so I use it
this is a bit better, contracted 2px instead of 1px
still looks pretty low resolution but i'm following exactly, it's just under 1000px and exported at 72
Just click the mask button on bottom right sorry
ah alright
There are 1000 ways to do that though
sorry, don't mean to make you teach me how to use PS
Actually learning and using PS is on my todo list for this next year š
Looks good enough
13 years too late but still
lol
Is there contribution docs
bro doesn't know how to use github
average vibe coder in 2025
tbf I vibe code a lot now that I've hit my skill ceiling in swift but lol
sure but i'd assume you know how to code otherwise
i'm not talking about people who do vibe code, i'm talking about a whole new breed of people brought on by vibe coding tools
havent opened the thing yet
I turn into my wife when I use Claude. 'what's this do?' 'what's this doing and how do I stop it from doing this?' 'where can I find this'

ugh, i'm looking for an image for a different lens and i can find what look like promotional materials on other sites, but the link on the tamron site is dead
It's a christmas miracle, he found it
Yeah image is going to be a challenge for a lot of older things and third parties
wayback machine
hmm yeah
Genius
Forgot that
For Nikon though press release images is a new thing
Older ones are still there but no images
damnit
good ai
oh well ig
He stole my bathwater last week
Every website you ever signed up for has your email
Most of them have a lot more than that
And half of the sites are selling your email to other sites
And ¾ of them are sending you marketing emails
Iām doing none of the above
@versed fjord here are images for 15-30 G2, 24-70 G2, and 150-600 G2 - they're a little rough but i had trouble finding marketing material so it is what it is
- edits submitted for all three lenses
should be all the info added

yeahhhh
unfortunately thatās all tamron has
well, they have a good looking sideways one thatās 400px or so
juan been getting busy
burying your requests with old nikon shit
š
šš
would be cool to have a notification system when edits are approved
or a way to see a list of currently pending and approved edits on your profile
format error i presume š
That's mine
15-30
g2
i approved it and it shows as 744$ anyway
yeah should be 744
maybe the review doesnāt show the .
floh if youāre ever taking mod requestsā¦/hj
That one needs color correction
Cool good idea
Also this
sounds good, iāll work on it later
Of course yes, canāt learn much from these though
if something has both a mechanical and electronic shutter should offer a max electronic shutter speed also
I separated this already
sorry, Longest and Shortest Shutter Speed
you separated the max FPS for shutter inputs
D4 was $6k at launch?
I feel this is really niche but Iāll add it to the low priority list
yeah $5999
like this? or am i missing what youāre saying
Outrageous
Does efc never vary from mechanical? For the fps?
EFC is a separate mode in all the elec/mech cameras I've owned
X-T3 for example had Mechanical Shutter, Electronic Shutter, and E-Front Curtain Shutter
Yeah but does mechanical max fps always equal efc max fps
Could you add Tamron SP AF 28-75 mm f/2.8 XR Di LD Aspherical (IF) MACRO please?
the GFX50S for example mechanically can only do 1/4000 but electronic shutter can do 1/16000
Iāll do later, just trying to retain some simplicity where possible and it doesnāt really matter to have extra details
will add now
People who would care would probably understand that mechanical usually tops around 1/4000 or 1/2000

Thank you!

@errant fox no idea how feasible this would be but it would be neat if a user could keep track of things like purchase price, purchase date, serial numbers, etc. Wouldnāt be publicly on their profile, but would be handy to get rid of the spreadsheet i have
Like how much they spent on gear?
yeah currently i have a spreadsheet tracking purchase price/date as well as listing mpb/market price, and also keeping track of item serial numbers
eh I think that's probably best kept in your own spreadsheet imho
i find it nice to have all that info in one place to tell me what gear i have + serials, and what iāve paid
but iām not sure if thatās within your scope for this so all good if not
Not that hard just would need to think it out a bit more, no point to really just make exactly what you have but in a different place
editing done
yeah, it would be handy to have showing in the site thatās already tracking what gear i have
True
Would be cool to average those together and show what the average price paid for the item is
Maybe
Thanks for accepting
400 dolar 135 f1.8 
Huh?
i only have two hands so
good price i got on siggy 135 f1.8 art lel
man why does everywhere except tamron have nice pics
sucks we cant use em
yeahhh
we def have to figure something out with this
iām pretty sure those are from tamron too, but the original link is now dead
cuz not all lenses will be this documented
Ooo, kk
if its like 1/1 the exact same pixel for pixel i dont see why its not usable
entirely depends on floh tho
agreed
for something like this thatās obviously oem marketing material
as its the tamron sample
@errant fox thoughts?
i feel like every time i talk here i ping floh a million times š
wait till bro starts getting adverts or commission through the site itll be worth it
wow I was today years old when I learned the Nikon 24-70 2.8 S doesn't have VR lol
why cant we use this
Law smth I think
sweden
Oh yeah, that's too
Yup, that's Sweden
But copywriters could see
just higher res
Well
oh man it's pretty https://www.sharplyphoto.com/browse/nikon/lenses/z
Explore all 19 Nikon Z Mount Lenses
except the 28mm
Also do we need the black and silver variations of the 16-50mm
maybe just put a spot in spec that lets us put in what colors it comes in instead
and maybe allow adding a second image that people can scroll to for separate color variations
this seems easier
because if it ever gets updated you need to do both and stuff just to make sure it stays consistent
effort
Same as what? If you can tell itās the same image used in manufacturer site itās fine, just extra careful
yeah identical to manu image just higher res
brilliant
get to work boy
will check through images and get better images when iām home
We have
currently out and about
@tepid nest I did the images for those two yesterday, itās two separate items
image origin for cobre
I know, why is the question. Why not combine them into one and show both images for variations
Oh, thatās a lot of extra logic I was just too lazy to do right now
Maybe one day
Could just add āvariation ofā column and then link them that way
I feel like a bhphoto or adorama link would be more useful than the amazon one imo if it ever comes up in the future
a bhphoto link field is a good idea
bhphoto ships around the world also and you don't have to worry about it defaulting to third party resellers etc
Sure will do
@versed fjord
z6 + 300/2.8vrii images
once these are added all of my collection will be fully detailed

Nice kit there
hats this
your first specification edit was approved
you can't (yet)
just for future use. member 3 pos 3
what the hell is square doing
think its literally just being unemployed
dudes added like all the canon stuff
Wym?
like it says when you submit something "we'll let you know if it has been accepted" or sum
I genuinely donāt understand how square has done more than 10x my activity when Iām coding this shit basically every day multiple hours
I approved what was pending when I posted that leaderboard shot
Going to add notifications when your submission is approved
The fuck I'm 5th now
Right now everything I just getting approved right away because itās all fresh info
Let it be known that I was first by a landslide once
I added/completed all the Nikon Z super teles, added a bunch of images for Z stuff.
Started GFX bodies but didnāt get far on those got distracted. Kinda did most of the 50S
ā1 is more than 0ā
Lol
Sharply is the newest and most comprehensive photography gear database and review platform featuring expert reviews, real specs, and side-by-side comparisons in a modern, minimalist interface.
The blacks are super dark on that
This is a dumb low priority idea but it would be interesting to also have a āHave Ownedā or āpreviously ownedā type button and list too. Like we do for add to collection or wishlist. Even if itās displayed on the profile without images in a compact table or list of some sort
Also they must be shooting these standing up and rotating the image right? how would they get a light below and above?
Yeah hold the phone sideways lol
It looks really natural standing up
Nice hack there
The other big mystery is how they make the front element look so good on especially the Z lenses
Must be manipulated somehow
Are you doing specs for this now?
the trance of youtube got me
lol
all good
a field for screw-drive af compatibility would be interesting for nikon stuff
not sure what canon has going on in a similar vein
also would be nice to get Sigma 17-50mm f/2.8 EX DC OS HSM added
Maybe, thatās sorta just a part of a larger compatibility thing
Maybe can add a compatibility checker or something
That would be cool
yeah that would be great
and D7100

oh bruh i need to approve my own review 
no actually
really i wanted to test the wishlist and couldn't think of anything else to add
i'm all gassed out
zf 
hmmm

easy done
ill try figure out a way to do my lenses image wise or wait till someone else coincidentally does kekl
things like announcement date and release date take so long to find, especially for older things š
yeah its basically impossible past 15 years old
new pfp fire
is that something you uploaded or is that a default fallback?
uploaded
makes sense
should change it here (and change your display name too) to confuse everyone
what is the first pin here linking to btw? i see no access
i cant show the contents its literally too long for a vertical monitor sc
is floh going to murder me if i use an image with the front element not showing
this is literally the only OEM marketing photo of this lens
lol
theres only so much you can do
just flip it 90 degrees like the rest and be done
i've been doing 1000 so 1000 it is
shooting your own?
or just editing
do you not have PS?
i never use it š
adobe crams that down your throat if you try to just get LR
but you have it?
what is that foot š
send me reference files and i can crop them real quick
it's disgusting
oh wait
that's just mask
ignore me
Someday Iāll sit and try to be decent with words and write one. But I suck at English.
š
Your edges have too much white need to contract that shit one more px
he hasn't done it yet
Oh
or at least he didn't crop them right
these are fresh from nikon site
the urge to use a ps free trial
but the knowledge they will not let me cancel
webp are super small file size compared to similar quality jpeg
Use webp chigga
DO NOT UPLOAD SVG OR ANYTHING
Also @versed fjord go learn GIMP
watch me
Nah deadass don't š
why
how gimp work
i used it when i was like 15 in school
and my teacher thought it was a bdsm thing
It's photoshop but open source
WHAT
cuz gimp
It doesnt have all the fancy AI shit but at its core it's basically photoshop
AND IT'S FUCKING FREE
.
So is affinity and itās not obnoxious to use like gimp
wait
this was 3 years ago
š¶
almost 4
still
im 19 in 2 months im an uncle
yeah try affinity photo imo
im already lost with gimp
Itās horrible unless you like slamming your balls in a car door like most Linux users.
@shy solar
Just press release n shit
Lmao
Just narrow it down to year and then it can be narrowed down in the future
find me an official press release for the sigma 17-50 f/2.8 DG OS HSM
?
if iām doing something iām going to do it right
Ping a real Linux user next time lol
you are like number 1 linux glazer
This is fine if nothing else is available
DG OS?
thatās a The Digital Picture article
It copies the press release
Fym glazer
(which is what i used, but isnāt first party)
lol put the effort into the real specs not the release date
i am, iām putting effort into everything
iām going all the way
Donāt burn yourself out kiddo
iām not going to be the next square
(kiddo is also a bit of a stretch but iāll gladly take it)
fujipillen
mfw i'm adding an ancient camera and there's no 720p option for video format
Add it as custom
ive used photoshop one time in the past 2 years and it doubles the premium in the uk
Hm
How much per year
Compared to Lightroom only
You also get free adobe portfolio with that btw
ya i get it with lr plan
11.99pm vs 19.99 iirc
not sure about yearly
Photoshop includes camera raw which is essentially identical to Lightroom other than organizational stuff idc about so at least for me only having ps installed is good
Yeah basically
I use it only as a tool for various things
But still worth
1/1000 photos needs it lol
I used Photoshop as a hobby for many yrs before getting into photography
i'm grandfathered on the 20gb photography plan for $119.88/y ($9.99/mo)
Thatās sick
lucky š
i dont use it either but no idea how you get this
aww rip
floh did you fix the "101%" issue?
No
Thatās the only place it could have been
Itās just sporadic
Iāll have AI fix that, easy fix
there are some 200% ones too
nvm just uploaded a lens image and it said 101%
AI is fixing it rn lol
i have all of CC
sorry i keep going back to my old times
Don't apologize Fuji is fun sometimes
im going to jump onto fuji bandwagon at somepoint
What browser?
It works for me
Are you pasting or typing?
Idaea convinced me to get X-Pro3
any idea why whenever i try to "save as" it gives me no options and just insta tries to export as tiff?
PS?
ya
odd, it shows a secondary popup for me to choose quality and such
time to do this stupid video section for the xs10
just straight to this š
if you change the save as type maybe?
(how do you upload images)
good enuf?
looks good to me

what photo do you want uploaded
less work
i can upload it for you
I've always wanted one š
whatever ones i filled out for i forgot
make photos for me and link to the listings
can you also get some fuji lenses on there pls to be set up
and i can upload them for you
make a list of full names
There isnāt one without hood?
ok give me 10
ah yeah, that
we want no hood?
yes
Yes
with element visible
Btw cobre, for creations mak sure name is exactly as it appears on the manufacturer site
whats with fuji and their high speed recs š
none appear on the siggy site
camera body photos should have the sensor visible, or the lens cap, ideally not a lens
imo it's ok to use store listing photos, bh/adorama/etc if they fit
i wouldn't use blog/review photos
but floh's call
is this a mod only one
ya
now i cant kill the background of this one š
cuts off some of the lens
so sad
the newegg one?
š
imma do one more then go bed
@versed fjord @frosty plaza No photos from stores like b&h
That would be considered worst case scenario lol
They do all of their own photography usually
hmm alright
unless you can tell it's the same photo that the manufacturer uses
sometimes older gear the press release isn't available anymore, but you can find a low res version, then find higher res version on other sites
@versed fjord if you really cant find any others, the lens hood one is fine for now
looks like same lighting they used
you can compare the lighting
that's the hood photo from sigma
this is another site
clearly same shoot
wait
different lens?
ah just different mount
still works
yep
I always wanted one since 4 days ago. It will replace my Zfc in the next couple years
prolly square lmao
its available in multiple mounts
cuz im fucking stupid also
Oops
I'll check them and fix them when I get back from japan
you better be taking some good photos out there
lock in little boy
Site is updated:
š New Feature
⢠User Social Links are live
Users can now add Instagram and Portfolio links in account settings, and they will appear on public profiles.
š Bug Fixes
⢠Mobile Auth Button now properly shows āSign Inā for logged out users and behaves correctly with redirects and tracking

⨠Other Improvements
⢠Updated sign in page copy to be clearer and less confusing
very cool
no
passwords are archaic sercurity risk
jk maybe
but magic link is preferrable
oauth is most preferrable
can I login with my bank account?
ill add a way to link
actually
is your discord email same as your login email?
if so it will link automatically
no
rippers
i have way too many emails
i'll add soon
all good
i donāt like relying on other services when not needed
fair, but most companies who provide oauth are not going anywhere any time soon
i understand that feeling though
yeah yea
its mostly annoying to me having different sites provide different oauth options
yeah
not their fault, just can never remember
my rule is:
apple if available > discord otherwise > github if code related
no google?
auth is an unsolved problem
no fuck google
blockchain is the solution to auth btw, but it's scary or something
yeah

i find it quite fun
will add those lenses shortly
@frosty plaza
missing entire page: sigma 150-600 C, d300
Missing info on page: Z 28/2.8, tamron 24-70 g1
Missing image: d850
imma try but lowk busy today
if itās just missing info/specs, fix it yourself
sharply squad?
impossibl
probably 1500 are correct
150-600 C added
bet
17-35 and 105 added, 150-600 G1 is already there, and can you send me a link to the 50 on meike's website? want to make sure it's the right one
i take all my stuff from the actual websites and my own knowledge so
well you're not square

its kinda ugly, might just make them all grey/white with accents for the brand
I think it looks fine
I find the splash of color refreshing tbh
noooo
I like it but you do what you want sir
ok i delay change indefinitely
š
never heard of it
must be american
isn't that like ceasar and shit
romania
the romanian empire
someone laugh please
bro
okay at first i thought you were serious
same
those two things are mutually exclusive
this looks like its good
yes looks good
yup
cropping to exact dimensions right?
1000 on long edge
well yes, crop tightly to the pixel
then 1000 on long edge if it's larger
if it's smaller dont touch it
alright will do
a couple of the older sigma/nikon lenses iāve done havenāt had great photos online, but i figure an ok photo is better than no photo. we can fix it up later
so i remember
what
there we go
this order really irritates me though š
what would it be if you did it
you also have quite an an usual set of focal lengths lol
no specific order personally id have it custom by the user tbh
my gripe is just some lenses looking the same but being seperated
just a nitpick mostly
yeah that's a lot of data and work for something so little
id assume most people would wanna flex their fancy stuff at the top but :P
yours just is a bit weird
bc you have 3 superzooms basically
35-150 and 70-200
lots of overlap
oofs
im doing the 35 1.8s rn
i mightāve gotten mixed up and uploaded a Sigma 150-600C picture to the 105 Macro earlier
the 1.2 has no image btw
images dont count there
photos donāt count yeah
make sure to crop them and size them
yup just cropping em
they probably have a lot of dead space
nice of nikon to do that
yeah nikon is fucking ez
modern nikon*
true
@tepid nest
š¤·
oh I mixed them up because I did both and I was going to add the 1.2 but got distracted
do you have the image still?
yeah I have it somewhere
i assume there's no plan to have better profile URLs, instead of UUIDs?
thats not bad at all
its fine yeah i just dont think theres anything no lens
all good
is this not the same lighting?
looking at the grip texture it looks the same
also much higher quality
yeah body paint is identical
there's no way that they use the same exact grip texture for everything, right?
yeah definitely the same
this is from amazon jp by the way
looking at my d300s the body paint is diff
like the pattern on the actual metal
so must be
makes sense
800px :x
I'll complete it later
The Z lens page is looking primo
all the lovely photos
except the 800mm because they only provided a profile shot and not an angled like the rest ffs
rip
when looking at someone else's profile, the wishlist and reviews says "you" instead of saying their username
this screenshot is from someone else's profile, not mine
hmmm
I'm gonna swap it
will open an issue later
for small stuff like that doesn't matter, but just make sure you ping me so i definitely see it
for bigger stuff good to do there so it doesnt get lost
yeah makes sense
i'll open that as an issue in a bit unless you're fixing it right now
plus, if you do it there i can just click one button and AI will fix it for me š
working on analog rn
impeccable collection
idk if im gonna sell 
keep the color
i want it on the zf a little
when you get a zf it will be
add your missing gear to your collection
wait i'm wondering if we should not include lens feet

ty
bro doxed him
wait
no lens foot is gonna make it a little hard š
i would include them if they exist
how da hell
ok ok nvm
i would accept no foot, but prefer foot
i was looking at your profile anyway
I only did the 800 because it was full on side profile with lens foot or angled with no foot. unfortunately the angled looks better š
that looks goofy
It was that or
hmmm
yeah good choice
yeah
Still need the 24-70 and 28
I do kinda miss the 800
Im not adding it on mobile
but found this
but not enough to warrant it sitting around unused
not from nikon
looks official to me
i presume its theirs tho
tiny image though
yeah rip
800px long edge is absolute min
ideally
they're there
better?
I didn't check the source though
too smol
this one 820x500 no?
yeah they must have scaled it up
ah fucker
it's not 1:1
wait this is nice
what's wrong with it
yeah that ones better
nikon fuckin ez bro
nothing I thought cater beat me to it
the pages are but since none of the info is there, i cant add it to my collection

I had to get the link from the page source hehe
ah
working on it
add enough to add those to your collection (make sure to add all of the mounts they came in etc) and then i might fill in the rest later
what the hell is nikon s mount
didnt even know s mount existed
I'd buy it in a heartbeat
mmmm yes
cooked
oh hell yeah
color-wise?
colour and cosmetically
put z50ii internals in it and boom
both official pics
yes cause chad z mount vs peasant e mount
not a huge deal
most of the time we might not even have the luxury of choosing
choose your favorite
