JJC Posted October 14, 2005 Share Posted October 14, 2005 So i'm going to invest in a Nikon FM. the funny thing? i'm going to use my D70 as a lightmeter, talk about doing things assbackwards. gonna convert my room into a darkroom, putting black curtains over the windows and a single red bulb. morbid. i'll write poetry as i develope. *edit: and shitty long exposure shots are played out. only the shitty ones though. the good ones? keep 'em coming. edit: that's not a turd, it's a brownie.

thecarwreck Posted October 14, 2005 Share Posted October 14, 2005 So I got a contract position as a photographer with this local paper... more freelance shit than anything but it gets the photos out. Anyone ever have experience in anything like this? I got 2 assignments tonight and fucked them both up (read: didn't shoot a frame). Input would be appreciated if you've got it.... PS: Ckit's 2 shots of doors are burning up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quoted post 2 fucking sporting events... and i'm NOT a sports photographer by any stretch of the imagination: some girls field hockey and then a homecoming football half time. Shit, high school STILL sucks 10 years later. The pouring rain was the major problem though; it forced people to get the fuck out asap. Hence no ops. Halloween parade tonight though... should be straight up Gummo. "Don't kill it bitch, it's a house cat." "It's a lesbian cat... you can tell." "Looks like my mom."

JJC Posted October 16, 2005 Share Posted October 16, 2005 I just inherited a: anyone have shot with this? looks like it's been used as a bat or hammer or something but it works and has aperture priority. uh the AF 85 f/1.4(wonderful lens) is on it because I didn't feel like purchasing any AI lenses. Right now focusing is kind of hard because it's lacking a horizontal split prism so i'm just eyeballing it, otherwise... i dig. oh, it's fuckin' heavy. the shit would kill my neck if i had a strap for it.

8onus Posted October 16, 2005 Share Posted October 16, 2005 ckit,...you got it baby, you got that eye hahahaha, for real this shit above me is dead as shit right? but that lighting makes that shit work,other wise its just a fucking door. gives me shivers! good shit. JJC yo got some dope shit too anyone here fuck with large format. post that shit. i think some of the pro-fession-al dude's shit(the one with the tracks and old shack) in the couple pages back was a LF shot... i like some of that shit, and INFA RED shots, post that shit too, post em, ima start getting into that junx because my school has a class where they GIVE you a LF cammera for a whole semester..dope shit, i love the way these films can fuck woth the contrasts soooo much, like shots with a lot of clouds. from what i understand IR film is the hardest shit in the world to shoot with cause you basicly have to guess what the settings are. i wonder if that shit will be tight or if i will break the shit in half. plus for me most of my shots besides the killer whore set is all spur of the moment, and i aint got more than 3 seconds tops to take the picture. so yeah, hook it up with shots(either yours or ones you like) and info on the above said shit.

courtorder Posted October 17, 2005 Share Posted October 17, 2005 Someone want to reccomend me a versatile, cheap 35mm slr? i'm getting a darkroom thrown my way for little to no cost, and need a 35mm. worked with a Pentax K1000 awhile back, but it was a friends and haven't needed once since this digital thing.

Ckit Posted October 17, 2005 Share Posted October 17, 2005 k1000 is probably the best cheap slr you will find. i have a nikon fe-2 and although it is a little more expensive than the k1000, i like it a lot more. other ones to check out are the pentax mx series. do you have a preferred brand?

photoflashfocusrecord Posted October 17, 2005 Share Posted October 17, 2005 nice. i'd like to see that flatland shot done with a little bit of fill flash and a higher shutter speed. i've been trying to shoot some skateboarding pictures recently, and it's probably been the hardest thing i've done so far with photography. hopefully i'll get some decent results that i can post up sooner or later.

thecarwreck Posted October 17, 2005 Share Posted October 17, 2005 Masturbatory self promotion, sure, but we're all egomaniacs anyway. This is the closest I've come to a "real" photo show around here. Plus it's gotten me an in with some artsy bastards who know other artsy bastards with money. That means I've got a foot in the door for a group show. Spread the wealth, comrade. Sterotypical and played-out as these may be, the rich whities just love them. Whatever. Art for art's sake my ass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
