If I can get access to a film scanner I'll have some good work to show you guys real soon Been some nice stuff on the last few pages.

[freecat]

hope you got a 5D or better because using that thing on a crop sensor would be a waste

actually i heard that such a wide angle could make impossible taking picture on a full frame dslr. the image is impressive enough on a cropped sensor.

Hi guys, recently had my first attempt on sunrise shots. It wasn't an intended photoshoot, I just happened to be there, so I thought hey why not?

I've received some bad comments about it, and I don't really think it's great too, but I want to improve on it. So critique away and help me improve sufu.

Thanks guys!

I have no idea why it turned out so small when i uploaded it on flickr.

Excuse my lack of knowledge, but why would a full frame with such a wide angle make it impossible to take a picture?

a FF with the 8mm is pretty much full 180 degrees (a tiny bit is missing at the top and bottom). you can point the camera upwards and you'll have a 360 degree panorama as well as the entire sky.

on a cropped sensor it will look more like the typical wide angle skate movie type picture.

depends on what you're looking for i guess

mirror blocking the shutter or something along these lines. but i have never experienced this.

The islands of st. kitts and nevis have a lot of stray cats, many of them have health problems. The veterinary university on the island catches as many as possible to spay/neuter and clips their ear as an identifier while doing nothing for the animal's other health problems.

[Guest bambam]

come onnnnn what do you expect them to do? university gonna cure or put down every cat on an island? doing the best they can basically its most realistic solution how can u hate

[jl.1212]

I can only see resisting if you are considering a D700, otherwise gonna be a struggle I would think.

^^ those are snapshots and really don't belong in this thread.

1. Overexposed by about 0.5 stops. Subject matter is not interesting and framing is very weird with half of the right eye cut-off by the crop. Also, I find the reflection of the photographer in the eye of the model to be distracting. The girl seems to be lively and having fun in this photo--that being the only redeeming value.

2. Flash fill! I understand asymmetric subject placement, but cutting off an arm from the shoulder down is unseemly. Furthermore, the model's expression is not particularly interesting or evocative

3. Shitty overhead/harsh lighting. Dude looks creepy, bizzy is fake/half-smiling, background is distracting and not thrown far enough out of focus and has too much range in color and brightness

CC welcome!

playin around with a slight vignetting. i think it looks kinda silly though..

"GET PITTED '09" ally cat - eugene oregon. i helped put it on. this is only some of the people

[freecat]

[corter]

what have I gotten myself into?

[jl.1212]

does anyone have opinions on the Yashica FX-2?

what would be a fair price to get for one?

[jasutek]

[LoganL]

natural vignetting when done correctly works so well and really adds to the tones of the photo.

Shopping for a rolleiflex 2.8 under $1000 is coming along pretty slowly, im getting close i think though.

A couple random shots from the University SEPTA Station taken with my new Nikkor 35mm f/1.8G:
