[I'll Poke Your Wet Cunt]

get on it shifty...

[IlikePie]

Yeah man, get on some film, it's tons more fun than digital I think. You have a very general idea of what your shots look like, but it's all a guessing game for the first while, until you learn your shit real well.

[I'll Poke Your Wet Cunt]

The real fun is getting your negatives back and seeing the results.... so exciting when you have some dope ones....

[IlikePie]

Hell yeah, but it's definitely a bummer when your rolls are all fucked up. 'Cuz I take forever to shoot film, so it's like I waste a few weeks of work.

[ShIfTeD]

yeah i was looking online and ws pretty surprised to see how cheap the sit was for like 4 lenses and the body, just a few hundo

im tryin to cop my gramps minolta, i doubt he'll cave in though

Those film photos look nice. My brother has a film camera but he discourages me from using it.

[kmcdon3960]

why not just get a cheap modern nikon film body, can't you use your same lenses?

[-Empty-Can-]

Talking to me?

Well the reason he doesn't want me using it is because he doesn't want to waste film. He doesn't use it either. You pretty much have to know what your doing though because you can't take a picture and review it.

I'll get one one day.

[Steezy McCreezy]

How good is a deal for a fe2 with a nikon 35-105mm Ais lens for £120 including postage?
Edit: I'm new to film, how much does film cost on average to how many photos you can take? Also, I guess you develop them yourselves.

[kmcdon3960]

naw man, I was talking to shifted, cus doesn't he already have a few nikon lenses?
I'm not sure about compatibility cus nikon is wierd like that.

emtycan though, just go check out thrift stores and farmers market, you're bound to find a halfway decent film slr for less then $30 The only way to learn is to fuck up.

There's a show tonight so I shall practice my off camera flashing, hopefully it's not a waste.

[Werse]

Whats he have for a minolta?

[thesecks]

I've got a 50mm just so pissed I can't use it without taking fucking ages to focus then realise its not actually in focus, really want to upgrade my body but cant afford it.


urmmm bit of a pointless post so I'll brighten it up with some old shots

lol'd at the powering up comment

[ShIfTeD]

what kind of show was that?

im a little confused about the crowd, you got a metal/punk/weird gothic/scene thing going on in there

not to mention a black guy that looks like he's down with some good early 90's hiphop

[kmcdon3960]

it was a mainly punk show, but it's the only thing going on in our state so we get everybody showing up.

We also had a wedding that night, the preacher dude was like "now i pronounce these mofuckers man and woman, now kiss that bitch!"

[UpstateHate585]

[dinedgc]

ache, calm down with the after effects man, looks too fake, lets see what you can do without manipulations, even if you don't get that artsy effect you're looking for, the good shots are a lot more impressive, and on that last one maybe she shouldn't be centered, look up the rule of thirds if you don't know it already, always keep that in mind when making a composition

i actually like all those except for the 1st

i think the self portrait would have been a little cooler if you gave a dramatic angle from the side though

nice shit up there orange

love the pic of the dog... looks so happy

[I'll Poke Your Wet Cunt]

how is the AE2 compared to the FE2?

Canon's version. Not compatible with new canon lenses.

LAME.

FE2 compatible with every lens that has an aperture ring.

agreed^^

if you take the shot again tho, maybe try lowering the iso and lengthing the shutter speed, just curious what less grain and some added light trails would make that picture look like, still dope the way it is though man

[orangegsx]

pic wasn't very well thought out I guess. That train was flying too. I heard it coming so I sprinted down to the tracks, snapped it, and got the fuck out of the way haha.

nice site man, dunno whether doing it in flash would make it more interactive and quicker, seems to be taking some time to load pages etc, but overall, god look, nice quirky title too.

wow just looked at the sub sections, love the title viewer, looks awesome ha

but yeah, need a back button to main page

[-Empty-Can-]

Nice site shifted.

I always thought about making one once I get good photos.

[I'll Poke Your Wet Cunt]

There is also a filter which decreases reflected light almost completely... I forget the name. They are dope.

[ShIfTeD]

yeah, i have no clue how to put a back button on the pics, oh well

thesecks- the interactive album viewer is flash, idk...i have a kinda slow computer and it loads fine for me

[ShIfTeD]

only payed $10

not complaining :D hah

[ares]

not feeling the tiltviewer. the photos page would load alot faster if you cropped the sections out individually instead of grouping them all together and mapping the links. also not using alt text in your images won't help with search engines, neither will the flash viewer.

you should get a pic of the silly string shit that comes out of lak when you first spray it, i think that would make a cool photo

yo mang, you got any knowledge on studio lighting?

i was looking into getting 3 remote firing strobes, with umbrellas, and a black muslin backdrop

idk the best way to go, money is semi important, im trying to keep it under $700

[UpstateHate585]

i dolnt know much but im gonna be tring to make my own studio lighting haha.

and yeah, they could be from chicago. they arent from here. they were awesome though

No need for studio lighting unless you are working only in a studio, I like small flash cos it is portable and can run off battery. Studio lights need power or a generator to run. My flashes have umbrellas but I never use them, I like harsh contrasty light from my flashes. there are specially built flash systems for use on the road, with heavy duty power packs and pocket wizards, just have a look on the web.

http://www.lensesforhire.co.uk/ekmps/shops/lensesforhire/images/nikon-pc-e-85mm-f2.8-d.jpg

Not that exact one, cos they cost $1900US, but a similar nikon PC lens second hand.

[ares]

personally I'd ditch the pc and buy a 4x5 and film. an 85 on a crop sensor is too telephoto for my tastes other than for details, full shots I'd definitely want to go wider

[I'll Poke Your Wet Cunt]

yeah, but a 4x5 is 3 times the price of a used PC. I'm getting a 28mmPC on a cropped sensor, should be okay. I'll need a bit of distance though.

[I'll Poke Your Wet Cunt]

I'm fucking sick of my cropped DX luggage camera... I'm gonna start saving for full frame.

[irockyourass]

yo so i'm just starting to get into photo editing and i'm trying to figure out what program to get... i'm not looking for anything too crazy, just simple shit to mess around with my photos. what program would you guys suggest. i'm not looking to spend too much money on something for like professional photographers, its just a hobby of mine and i want to spend accordingly. any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. then maybe i can start contributing to this thread a bit. thanks guys, love this thread btw... always great pics

[dinedgc]

you dont have to edit photos to put them up in here man, why the fuck does everyone screw with their pics so much? if you wanna try HDR tho, i've been fuckin around with photomatix, they have a pretty good free trial version that never expires, not too much a fan of HDRs when overdone, but it can be a useful tool in certain situations

[Peter Reveen]

do you want manipulate the photos then get photoshop if not then adobe light room.

How good is a D3000? There was an ad in the paper for $500. I said I wanted a camera for christmas and this is alot cheaper than the one I want

[dinedgc]

i've got a D3000 and its just fine, like it alot more than my roommates canon rebel, they talk up the tutorial feature a lot on the D3000 but it's not anything useful unless you have no idea how to use a DSLR, but for the price the D3000 is nice

this is similar to the set i got
http://www.amazon.com/Nikon-Digital-18-55mm-3-5-5-6G-Accessory/dp/B002MXPOYK/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1258940843&sr=8-2
the extras are nice to have, the bag is kinda big but its a nice one to keep everything organized at home, and can hold quite a few beers when you go wandering, for $530 its a nice package

The last one is nice. What kind of lens is that so you get that outside ring? And what are those white circles and stuff coming from the sun?

[UpstateHate585]

i think most cheaper fisheyes get that ring. and the "circles from the sun" is lens flare. u can do that in photoshop if you want lol

to whoever asked what program to get, i got photoshop 7 then got cs3 for free using the good ole internet

[wafflecakee]

its fish eye adapters not lenses.

[UpstateHate585]

thanks for clearing that up

[dinedgc]

again, not too much of a hdr fan, but thought i'd give it a shot, i used photomatix to generate these

[ShIfTeD]

not even

[dinedgc]

i've said it before, but i dont like the overprocessed HDR shit that looks fake, so i didn't push the tone mapping/levels too much, i also just started trying to take them and with no tripod and a camera that doesn't have exposure bracketing they didn't come out as super obvious HDR shots, but fuck it, was really just playing around

[ShIfTeD]

what do you have your iso set to?

[dinedgc]

it was on 200, should i have cranked it up more for that inside shot?

gotta admit im not super happy with any of them

[UpstateHate585]

i dont like all hdr. but some landscapes look pretty nice if its done right

[ShIfTeD]

nah, i was gonna say, your pics looked a little noisy, its probobly just me not being used to earth tone nature pics..you sould DEFINETLY use the sun to your advantage when taking those tall grass pics and shit, that one pic you posted is straight fire son! imo, you should really work with some more angles to make the pics pop, i know how much you hate editing, but you should atliest up the cotrast a bit and make em' more crisp

...there was alot of potential with that run down house, i'd have a field day with that shit, for the pic inside it, i would have just opened the aperature more, i know you said you didnt have a tripod, but if you did you could have done a long exposure and that shit would have been pretty dope

[dinedgc]

going back to that house next sunny day i get and definatelt bringing a tripod with me, and yeah, definately had a field day, just scared i was gonna fall through the floor, there were holes all in the second floor

[ShIfTeD]

you should smash a hole through the floor and take a cool pic

[dinedgc]

and your photos are seriously motivational. What are you shooting with?

[JackJill]

Is that the wall UnderPressure painted in like 07?
Looks damn familiar.

[dinedgc]

thanks jackjill, i'm using a D3000 i got a few months back, still working with the 18-55 mm lens that came with it, i want a nice fisheye lens, not adapter tho, and a zoom lens, christmas is coming at a good time

[JackJill]

You got a D3000? That's supposed to replace the D60 right? I wish my D60 shot like the D90, I love that camera but it's too bulky for my feminine hands.
I find the standard lense is a nice all-arounder but seriously frustrating when most of my shots need more of a wide-angle/telephoto. I'm doing Portrait shots atm and I just can't seem to get that soft look I'm going for. Aside from the colourcast is there anything I can do?

[dinedgc]

yeah, it replaced the D60 and the D5000 takes the D90's place, the D3000 has some quirky add ins, i can do tilt shift editing on my camera as well as a stop motion feature, just wish it has auto exposure bracketing, oh well, i just wont be lazy and change the shutter speed manually for HDRs

not experienced too much at portraits tho, at least no formal ones, really enjoy candid portraits however, but i'm sure there are tutorials out there, the only thing i can think may help would be to try and soften your lighting, either an umbrella shade or bounce all your light off white and back onto the subject (helps with harsh light spots), sorry i can't help much more

[JackJill]

The D60 also has Stop Motion, I used it for one of my assignments at school because I didn't have a video camera. That's the nice thing about the D90 because it actually has a video recorder on it.

[dinedgc]

that would be nice, but very often do i find myself wanting to film anything, i got a point and shoot that i had long before my nikon that takes care of that, bout to go fuck around with some night shots cause quite frankly i'm bored as rocks and my camera is just sitting on the coffee table right in front of me

[ShIfTeD]

d5000 has stop motion as well

[dinedgc]

cool, never looked into it and still need to figure out what settings to put my camera on to make it work, fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck reading manuals

[ShIfTeD]

if its like mine is

you make sure theres no images you dont want in your stop motion movie, then you take your pics, go into the retouch menu, and it should be in there

[pDc-2121]

I wish my D60 shot like the D90
I just can't seem to get that soft look I'm going for. Aside from the colourcast is there anything I can do?

The difference between picture quality between D60 and D90 will be minimal. Only difference in a slightly smaller picture size in megapixels (which doesn't matter) and a bit better rendering of ISO with the D90.

As for portraits, buy a cheap 50mm f/1.8 or f/1.4, check out E series nikon 50mm's on ebay, they go for around 60$US which is fuck all. They aren't very sharp wide open so they will give you the dreamy soft look you are after.


D5000 takes the D90's place,

No, the D5000 did not replace the D90, they are very different cameras and the D90 still outranks it entirely.

The D3000 is no where near as good a camera as the D60 or D40, the D3000 has appalling performance at high ISO's. Get a D40.

This explains why shifty thought your images look noisy, dinedgc.

Since you are so anti post production, you may want to improve the content of your photos, cos they are kinda boring on the most part, don't get me wrong though there are some gems there.


thanks jackjill, i'm using a D3000 i got a few months back, still working with the 18-55 mm lens that came with it, i want a nice fisheye lens, not adapter tho, and a zoom lens, christmas is coming at a good time

18-55mm is a great lens. Absolutely nothing wrong with it, very sharp. You cannot buy a fisheye lens if you want your auto focus to work on your D3000. If you are happy manually focusing for each and every shot, go hard and buy a 10.5mm DX.
I suggest you get the 70-300mm Nikon for a cheap zoom lens, if you do not need F/2.8 constant aperture.


How good is a D3000? There was an ad in the paper for $500. I said I wanted a camera for christmas and this is alot cheaper than the one I want

No, buy a D40.

[dinedgc]

dude at the camera shop told me wrong then about the D5000, oh well

this was the fisheye i was looking at, what do you think? and i'm not worried at all about focusing for each shot, it'll be worth it http://www.amazon.com/Rokinon-Aspherical-Fisheye-Digital-Cameras/dp/B002LTWDSK/ref=wl_itt_dp_o?ie=UTF8&coliid=I1Q79G1BJQ9SWB&colid=2QMS2RORH8JMW

and funny you mentioned the 50 mm f/1.8, i was looking at one of those too

out of a zoom, fisheye, and the 50 mm, what do you think is priority? do have to admit the fisheye is wanted just for funky perspectives and shots

[pDc-2121]

out of a zoom, fisheye, and the 50 mm, what do you think is priority, do have to admit the fisheye is wanted just for funky perspectives and shots

That fisheye is circular, eg it takes photos like this.
http://www.usa.canon.com/uploadedimages/FCK/Image/2008/Interviews/Laforet/NYC_FishEye_web.jpg
Lame, in my opinion, may as well buy a 40$ fisheye attatchment. If youre going to buy one, you are best of just saving for a real deal. The 10.5mm Nikon DX is the one I own, and it's amazing.

As I said, look on ebay for an E-Series 50mm Nikon f/1.8, they are extremely cheap, or else buy a 50mm AF-S if you have the money.

Your priority should be a 50mm. They are really difficult to shoot well, and if you can master it, you can shoot anything. Fisheyes are great fun but are useless for anything serious.

The D5000 has the same sensor and auto focus system, but lacks the lens compatibility and ISO abilities of the D90.

[pDc-2121]

*edit

im wrong about that fisheye, it is full frame not circular. But I would still save for the Nikon.


Oh, and focusing manually for each shot is fucking annoying, and renders it useless for the only reasons you'd buy it, night time party shots cos you can't manually focus in the dark, and skateboarding because your subjects are moving to fast to focus on them yourself.

[pDc-2121]

I find the standard lense is a nice all-arounder but seriously frustrating when most of my shots need more of a wide-angle/telephoto.

The equivalent of a DX 18-55mm in FX format is approx 28-70mm, which is both pretty wide and quite zoomy. but if you need a lot wider and a lot more zoom, a better choice for you would be to buy a wide angle lens, and a zoom lens seperately.

I suggest a 11-16mm f/2.8 tokina for the wide end

http://www.onestop-digital.com/catalog/images/tokina11-16.jpg

and a 50-135mm f/2.8 tokina for a zoom

http://bursa.fotografer.net/images/photo/36570-foto1.jpg

I have both and they are great.

[dinedgc]

swirds, thanks man

what about this 50 mm?

or these zooms?
http://www.amazon.com/Nikon-55-200mm-4-5-6G-Vibration-Reduction/dp/B000O161X0/ref=wl_it_dp_o?ie=UTF8&coliid=I9RAYECF40AHN&colid=2QMS2RORH8JMW

and any opinions on a cheap fisheye adapter just for fuckin around on the D3000?

[pDc-2121]

Why amazon? That 50 you posted won't auto focus on your D3000.

Buy this as a 50mm for a cheap as fuck option, manual focus though, some are even on ebay for like $40:

http://cgi.ebay.com/Nikon-Nikkor-50mm-50-mm-f1-8-series-E-standard-lens-exc_W0QQitemZ220513946448QQcmdZViewItemQQptZCamera _Lenses?hash=item3357a7cb50#ht_4323wt_1167

or if you have cash for an auto focus 35/50mm equivalent:

http://cgi.ebay.com/Nikon-35mm-f-1-8G-F-1-8-G-DX-AF-S-Nikkor-Lens-NEW-USA_W0QQitemZ200409796216QQcmdZViewItemQQptZCamera _Lenses?hash=item2ea95ace78

And yeah, that zoom's ok but I doubt you'd ever use it. Buy a zoom once you can afford a constant f/2.8 zoom and shoot enough portraits for you to have a proper use for it.

[dinedgc]

good call on ebay man, definitely gonna go that direction, that 35mm f/1.8G AF-S looks niiiiice, and cameta camera on ebay stores has some other good deals too

[ShIfTeD]

http://shop.thehundreds.com/p-455-paparazzi-backpack.aspx

yeeeaaahhhhh buddy!

[ShIfTeD]

just made a nice purchase to a white and black muslin backdrop, and the stand as well

...making a few stops around the city tomorrow to get familiar with lighting and ill probobly make that purchase later this week, not quite sure if i wanna go for continuous lighting or strobes with a modeling light, either way im gonna go for translucent umbrellas and bounce panels

im pretty excited

[pDc-2121]

Just buy flashes yo.

[ShIfTeD]

but i want the modeling light yo


i plan on banking off people, therfor i gotta look "profesional"...feel me?

im gonna but that 4 unit remote flash later on for outdoor shit, but studio lighting trumps flashes for indoor portraits, the lightings too harsh, yeah they have diffusers and soft boxes, but it doesnt compare...and theres soo many options for diffusing your lighting for studio lighting

[ShIfTeD]

i sure wish ak was still around

[weak0ner]

i recently got my hands on a Sony Cybershot DSC-H9, thoughts on this camera and is there a program out there that i can use to change the shutter settings?!

[ShIfTeD]

thoughts on the camera: pos, sorry...

for the price tag you could have bought an slr, the d40 sits at just about $100 more than that

you can probobly set the shutter speed a bit faster or slower than your default setting and you can change the iso

[pDc-2121]

who the fucks banning you anyways?

keep em comin ak, keep em comin :D

huh?

[pDc-2121]

I feel buying studio lighting at this stage would be a bit silly. using strobes with umbrellas works a charm for softening light.

[IlikePie]

The only way I can see you being able to mess with your shutter speeds is changing the setting from like sports, which is a high speed, to like nightshot, or fireworks, which is lower.

[weak0ner]

ahh shit oh well ill figure something out, for a camera i got for free it isnt THAT bad lol.

[UpstateHate585]

lol wut?

im planning on making my own studio lighting and buying flashes and shit. making the lighting doesnt look hard or expensive. i just want my damn camera already

[-Empty-Can-]

Oh, and focusing manually for each shot is fucking annoying, and renders it useless for the only reasons you'd buy it, night time party shots cos you can't manually focus in the dark, and skateboarding because your subjects are moving to fast to focus on them yourself.

So a D40 would be better than a D3000? They're the same price.

So if I get a fisheye for one of those camera I would have to manual focus it everytime?

and why are Aspherical Fisheyes alot cheaper than the circular ones?

Did you get a little paper book called the 'Manual' with your camera?

Read it

[dinedgc]

it's gotta be set on manual or shutter priority i think and you spin the little scroll wheel thingo til you find what speed you want, on a side note you better have a tripod for night shots or prop your camera on something, i personally only shoot on manual so i can fuck with the shutter and aperture separately

[-Empty-Can-]

The best way to learn things is screwing around with stuff. At first I would just switch the aperature, shutter speed and ISO until i found something that worked. Now I know wha i'm doing after having expierience and talking to people. I only shoot manual too.

Yes you will have to focus it everytime, until they bring out a fisheye with a focus motor on it.

All good fisheyes are around the same price. If you want a cheap fisheye, try this one. Ignore other cheaper fisheyes.

its not exactly cheap but its an alternative to the nikon.


Just get the damn nikon one.

10.5mm.

But would those lenses would auto focus and canons or other cameras?

I'm probably not gonna get any new lenses yet. I didn't even get a camera yet! I'm just trying to learn more about them and which ones to get.

All canon EOS lenses have the focus motor on the lens itself. SO any canon lens focuses on any canon EOS camera.

But this means their newer lenses do not mount AT ALL on their old pre EOS film cameras.

Nikon fisheyes at the moment only focus on cameras that have the focus motor inside the camera, eg, D80 and up.

All this talk of fisheyes on dx format sensors, the crop factor is going to make it look different than everything thinks its going to, with the nikon fisheye on the d40 theres no circle or anything like an cheap adapter.

Here's my cheap fisheye!

Not if you buy a nikon DX fisheye. The 10.5mm is DX and the 16mm is for FX sensors.

This is why you must save for the nikon rather than get a cheaper brand

Whats a Crop factor?

I hope msfyt posts the photography battle soon. Did anybody enter?

[ShIfTeD]

Yeah, it's crazy sharp. Get one, you will probably find one for under $500 used on ebay.

So i was looking at the Nikon 10.5 and whats the difference between these two?

One of them says auto focus but I thought you said you couldn't get an auto focus fisheye for Nikon. Would these work on the D40?

[wafflecakee]

ones new and the other is refurbished...

They autofocus on any nikon DSLR that ISN'T a d40, d40x, d60, d3000 or d5000. If you own any of those cameras, the lens will NOT auto focus on it.

If you own a nikon DSLR that is better than said cameras, it will autofocus. Why is this so hard to understand?

i broke my camera a month ago :(
i need a new one soon

[-Empty-Can-]

Alright I understand now. So pretty much only works on the better cameras?

I've never really used manual focus. How hard is it to do?

[dinedgc]

i use manual for macro shots, i zoom in as much as possible and then proceed to find my focus afterward, not too hard, if you can't get it just right, adjust your focus while on burst shot so you get multiple focal points in the same composition

[Peter Reveen]

since when, you got way too much noise in some of your shots.

meh i snapped this cause of the out of order sign didnt set it up walked in and it was there.

and word up to the water crustaceans

[ShIfTeD]

awesome!

[dinedgc]

i wish that out of order shot had more intense lighting, i know you're inside, but maybe try going back right before sunset and get those oranges and yellows that'll be peakin through the windows, it might also help get you some more shadows and a lot more contrast, the lighting is kinda flat and dull, lovin that crab tho, he looks so pissed

[lord patrick]

i think he was about to be cooked and ate.. id be pissed too

[sincewhen]

the noise is due too rough edits, you live ya learn

[m.ziggy]

does anyone have any suggestions on a camera thats smaller then a canon rebel and nikon d90 but still has that same quality? its not for me but the person getting it is willing to spend up to like $600 on it. they have the rebel but travel a lot and want something easier to travel with.

some old pictures for talking.....

http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b230/GlamR-CuPe/11-1-1.jpg

[wafflecakee]

[Peter Reveen]

nah if you think your gonna use the tripod alot then save up for a a good one fuck the cheap ones it ain't worth it

[dinedgc]

picked up a tripod the other day for like 40 from best buy, not the best one ever, but not bad at all

got this yesterday too, but it's a christmas present so i gotta wait a month to play with it
http://www.nikonusa.com/Find-Your-Nikon/Product/Camera-Lenses/2183/AF-S-DX-NIKKOR-35mm-f%252F1.8G.html

[my.favorite.addiction]

Cleannn shot Jenkins,
but anyways.
hello erryone!!
Ive been lurking this thread for a good minute but havent been posting cuz I havent had a camera,I recently came into being able to use a Nikon FM10,
does anyone have any tips,cuz im new to film SLRs.

[ShIfTeD]

so theres this insanely busy mall where i live, its a premium outlet store, which means that theres a bunch of top notch stores combined into one outlet mall

outlet mall=great deals on expensive shit

foreigners that come over seas to go to the "shopping" country will either go to new york, chicago, or la..the ones hat go to chicago book tours around the city and they most certainly wanna go shopping, so what better of a place to go shopping then the mall by me?

anyways, i work at an oakley store and the traffic that comes into the store is nuts, weekends we usually have an $8,000 day

anyways, every year this mall opens at midnight for black friday...last yer there were 3 fights that broke out, and there was an hour wait JUST to get off the exit on the expressway to get to the mall

its pure madness to say the least

im gonna document it tonight :D

i thouht it would make for some amazing pictures, people making complete asses o themselves, hahaha

andif any news stations or papers or websites decide to cover the mall's crazyness, (which they will) ill be there to offer up some pics at their expense ;)

ill post up probobly tomorow or something but its 8:00pm by me now, 4 hours...hah!

happy thanksgiving everyone
