The Official Photography Thread - Vol. 3

[grizzlyboy]

What are you looking to shoot? I just got back from Miami

I do mostly street photography so like any cool murals and buildings. Bridges, tunnels all that fun stuff.

The nightlife on South Beach is always good. But the Wynwood Arts District is where you want to be.

basically...it is a good way to add a bit of mood to an image, some like to use analogous (basically using different colors that are around the same shade, like blue, light blue and bluish green) but most times you'll see complimentary colors (blue with orange, red with green)

this is a useful tool if you want a bit of an introduction to color theory

thanks for the link.

Appreciate it. Repped

Did the best I could with it being underexposed. Black is such a pain to work with.

Edit:

think it'd look good if you made it warmer + hit the sun with a warm radial filter


btw can anyone school me on split toning in LR? it is basically just giving colors to shadows/highlights?

I warmed it up a bit but the road had a hint of yellow so I decided to keep it like that. I just added the radial filter and the sun does look more pronounced. Just gotta figure out how to do it in photoshop now lol.

did you underexpose on purpose? it might be useful in that type of situation to try to hdr it by taking & combining a few different exposures...

No I shot this a year ago and just didn't mind my camera settings when taking the shot.

Gonna be in Miami for the weekend and I was wondering where are some good places to go shoot. I'll be staying around Ocean Dr. But I'll have a car by the night.

Wynwood. I'll be shooting down there Saturday

^That cake looks like it's ready to plummet to the ground lol

From yesterday. Didn't have a flash but if I work at it a little more I could probably bring the white out from the car.

Can't even begin to explain how excited I am. Just need a damn lens.

Anyone have any experience with rangefinders?

The progress of everyone's work in here though... WOW. Everyone has improved. Happy shooting!

^^^You talking about the new Fuji cam? I just saw below. The new AF looks promising.

 

[bjamez20]

Nice M7 mjbetch 

 Dude behind me at the Warriors game last night had a Leica, looked like a 240. My feelings were definitely hurt.

Put in my preorder for the X Pro 2. Wish Fuji would do a little bit more to justify their high prices, but I'm a sucker for the X system and was going to pull the trigger regardless 

 

 

[Fong$tarr]

Oh...my work computer didn't even pull up that photo. Man dude, I swear you went from like system to system. Did you get rid of the RX100? Leica's just scare me. Like I'd hate to get one only to find out the technology isn't up to par with what I am used to. I think rangefinders are an art and even what Leica produces is something that takes some time and patience. With DSLRs now a days, it's just point, shoot and edit later. Leica's I figure are more treated like film. It's just way too much money for my limited shooting abilities.

 

[HankHill]

Leica is too rich for my blood.

Damn bro. I can only dream of a 240 haha.

YO I'm jealous. That XPro2 looks sweet. I especially love the new ISO dial integrated into the shutter speed dial like on old film cameras. You're like the only other dude I know that shoots Fuji. Love seeing your stuff on my flickr feed!

Yeah man. I suffer heavy from GAS (Gear Acquisition Syndrome.) I did indeed sell my RX1 for it. It's pretty much how I funded the M7. This one is film btw. I find myself enjoying shooting film more than digital nowadays. Mirrorless/rangefinders/non-DSLR isn't for everyone. If you're used to the best performance and quickest autofocus, DSLR is the way to go. I find myself needing portability and less weight more than anything, so that's why I went the mirrorless & rangefinder way.

beautiful camera, much clean!

voigtlander makes decent m-mount glass, at a fraction of the cost...all i know of rangefinders is that since you don't see through the lens there is a lot more uncertainty especially if you shoot wider than the frame that the rangefinder shows....i've read that some of these type cameras have different frame lines inside the viewfinder, is that true for this one? can you change this depending on the lens?

Thanks! Correct, you don't see through the lens. You see straight through that little window. They come in different magnifications for different lens lengths. And yes, usually, at least with the newer Leicas, they are fitted for 3 lens lengths. That little lever on the right can change your frame lines. Also, whatever lens you put on changes it automatically too. I think there's 35mm, 50mm, and 90.

 

[Nawzlew]

Can you guys school me on those Leicas? Not that I'd buy one, but I see a lot of people using those over the traditional DSLRs and stuff.
