I don't have too much use for the ones by NatureGuy, but still good info.
bump for more knowledge!

stop being a technophile and spend more time taking photos.

I'd have to say this is quickly becoming the most beneficial thread I have ever been in on /p/.

Don't let this get away from Page 1 >.<!

>>610156
>spend more time taking photos

I hate these posts because they are pointless.
They offer no helpful information and I've seen it hundreds of times.
God forbid someone wants to help you out with a specific part of photography.

I've got a 52mm circular polarizer from B&W and I have to say it really doesn't help my outdoor shots, or anything for that matter, look darker/more contrasty. I don't know.
Annoying that the filter spins when my camera focus's too because it's a cheap 18-55 kit lens.

You step on the washer and hold the camera up so the rope is taut and it makes it vertically stable.

Sumone post a link to another location of this, or reup it please, cause its only for premium users now...

>>611703
Also, best thread on /p/

TIP 1 How to become a professional photographer:
Buy a digital camera.

TIP 2 Tricks of the trade:
Have a look on the camera, somewhere, probably on the top or back or somewhere on the front or sides there will be a button or dial marked 'A', this does not stand for 'Automatic' as some amateurs think but 'Awesome'. Leave it on this all the time.

TIP 3 Photography courses:
There is no need for even a basic photography course because once you buy a digital camera you will be a professional photographer like me. Not as good as me though.

TIP 4 Lighting:
You will need some light otherwise the photos will come out a bit too dark. Usually you can fix them in photoshop but some light to begin with is good.

TIP 5 Subject Matter:
Yes, it does. Dont take photos of girls leaving the high school from your car as the fine is $360.00 and a years probation.

can someone put this in rapidshare

>>611749
>photos of girls leaving the high school from your car

>>615250
this is how imageboard other than those on 4chan are. it's normal. it's 4chan that is abnormal with such a huge amount of traffic. it's not uncommon to start a thread and keep returning to it for a week for updates on other imageboards.

the pace of /p/ is decent.

>other than 4chan
