Thoughtful curation is 95% of photography. In contradistinction, this thread is a thoughtless, theme-less pile of tourist shit.

Can sunset photos damage a mirrorless sensor?
Anonymous
Quoted By:
I thought it would be funny to do a 5 minute exposure wide open zoomed in to 200mm pointed straight at the sun and I've definitely noticed more hot pixels since doing it.

>>4050533 i've seen it happen during an eclipse, never during a sunset, I guess that's another fear to add to the list.

>>4050497 >Can sunset photos damage a mirrorless sensor? Yes. Depends on sun brightness and exposure. Note that the longer the focal length, the more you are amplifying the sun. (Technically, the more sunlight you are collecting and concentrating onto a spot on the sensor.)
So...a hazy sun shot on an UWA at f/11 with a fast shutter time? Probably OK.
Lingering on a bright sun, zero clouds/haze, while you frame it with a 300mm f/4 telephoto? Could definitely fuck things up.

I went onto instagram today for the first time in months. My entire feed that I scrolled down was just video clips??? So many video clips of somebody just walking for 5 seconds with somebody filming them do that? The search screen still shows photos but my feed is videos only. Is that normal, is the feed only for videos now and you have to go to somebodys page to see photos?

Quoted By:
>>4050578 The way I understand it is that if you post video content (reels) the algorithm will give you more exposure (random likes/followers, your post will appear more frequently in your current followers feed).
When I post pictures I usually get likes from random people (depending on the hashtags used) the very next few seconds after posting it but it stops there. I only post for family, close friends and the few people from /p/ that I added.

/p/ bros i dont feel so good>Smartphone cameras and DSLRs have been moving in opposite directions for the past few years, and image quality from phones will finally trump that of their single-lens reflex rivals by 2024, according to Sony. >As reported by Nikkei Japan, the President and CEO of Sony Semiconductor Solutions (SSS), Terushi Shimizu, told a business briefing that "we expect that still images [from smartphones] will exceed the image quality of single-lens reflex cameras within the next few years". Some fascinating slides (opens in new tab) presented during the briefing were even more specific, with one slide showing that, according to Sony, "still images are expected to exceed ILC [interchangeable lens camera] image quality" sometime during 2024.>But the broader conclusion remains – far from hitting a tech ceiling, smartphones are expected to continue their imaging evolution and, for most people, make standalone cameras redundant. >So what tech will drive this continued rise of the best phone cameras? Sony points to a few factors, including “quantum saturation” and improvements to "AI processing". Interestingly, Sony also expects the sensor size in "high-end model" phones to double by 2024. >The larger pixels on these sensors will, it says, allow phone makers to apply multi-frame processing that "realizes a new imaging experience", including improved Super HDR modes and zooms that combine folded optics (as on the Sony Xperia 1 IV) with AI algorithms.

>>4049602 I have the Snoy Xperia 5 II. I mean... yeah headphone jack, it's "Made in Japan", it's not hard to root - but as a video and picture phone... it's a disappointment. Main camera can often match iPhone quality, but the superwide has a ton of chromatic and barrel distortion (even after software correction), and the telephoto is a piece of shit. The tele is a tiny 1/2.5" sensor with shit dynamic range and noise, as well as the autofocus mechanism is garbage which can't keep the lens aligned, so you get uneven focus across the frame.
It's a $1000 disappointment. I won't buy another one.

Sup, /p/ What's a decent free image editing software for Android that has the bare minimum expectable useful tools like any windows freeware (picrel), and doesn't just suck the social media meme filter tit. Inb4 lightroom, photoshop, snapseed, etc
Anonymous
>>4050506 If you're at the level where you can just edit on your phone, then the standard phone editing software is good enough bud. Outside of this if you have a laptop or computer even if it's shit then torrent.
related, but isn't GIMP free?

Android (X)GIMP has a 2.5 rating and is full of ads, from the reviews.
Really basic pic oriented file editing stuff, not leet post stuff. Just that it seems everything little thing I did in IrfanView/xnview without even giving it a thought, takes me on a wild goose chase in android.

I'm giving a friend some advice for buying his first camera, he wants something compact but with a modicum of zoom so I suggested the em10 iii with the 12-60 pana. He says that it still seems bigger than he likes though, should I just tell him to just get a compact at this point? I thought about the oly pancake but it's only 3x and not that good, and I can't think of a smaller camera

Quoted By:
>>4050195 yeah but you also need to know what you are doing a little to really see the difference, especially with good compacts like the lx100 or an rx100 compared to an inexpensive mft lens. I'll tell him that if he really gives a fuck about learning photography he's better off getting a system with interchangeable lenses so he has a lot more room to experiment in the future and the possibility to buy better lenses

I can't figure this shit out. Tried Premiere Pro, way too complex and had my brain exploding. Tried Filmora, it was much more understandable but the end product looked worse and had visible pixelation. What's a good video editing software for a beginner? All I need to do is add saturation, brightness, and up the whites a bit so nothing too complex is necessary. Do any of you have a go-to for film editing? Preferably free but paid is ok too.

>>4050512 I'd say it's overly complex for youtube stuff, and doesn't work unless you have a top of the line computer anyway. It's not compatible with any of my laptops, I had to run it on an old XPS gaming desktop and it still runs slow and crashes. The latest versions of Resolve are made only for top of the line systems, considering it's legitimate pro software and they want cutting edge.
Filmora was very easy to use, and had a ton of built in filters so you don't have to figure out how to tweak color wheels. I'd pirate that to keep it simple, but definitely wouldn't pay for it. The free version adds a watermark that they don't tell you about until you've already completed your project. If your computer can run it, Resolve is great but just skip the color tweaking tab or keep it basic.

I'm using a 4690k non overclocked, 16GB of cheapo RAM and a 4GB low end GPU (which is not even used in the free version). Runs smooth as silk and export times are great. Resolve doesn't add any kind of watermark, it's loaded with features but very well laid out, it's your fault that you can't into computer.
Enjoy your "MADE WITH BANDICAM" software made for babbies.
