Photography

I think I finally want to buy my own camera. I usually used my dad’s Nikon but let’s just say I’m more comfortable having my own. I’m no photographer but I might learn a thing or two and this might just become a nice hobby for when I’m bored and just walk around town. Can you guys help me pick a good starting camera? Nothing too fancy…I remember Canon used to be all the rage but I’m guessing times have changed since 2016. Anyway, any input or advice you can give is appreciated so I might start planning the buy. Thanks!

When you apply a LUT in post, on Darktable for example, do you apply it to the raw file or do you do some preprocessing, like applying the camera profile beforehand?

Hello all! I’m very casually becoming interested in photography, and my camera is a Kodak PIXPRO. I really enjoy the kind of grainy, vintage look that a digital camera has to offer, and I want to enhance that vibe through editing, but I have no clue where to start. Can someone recommend me a free photo editing application thats compaitable with Mac? thank yall in advance for your sage advice<3

I’m looking for something like this TOPDON TC004 Mini Thermal Imaging Camera, except ideally I’d like one that runs on (rechargeable) AA batteries. Does such a device exist?

I recently purchased an M. Zuiko 17mm f1.2 lens after reading it’s the sharpest lens in the micro four thirds system. I have the 25mm f1.2, and it’s been wonderful – even wide open – but all the technical lens tests say it is a step below the 17mm f1.2 and the 45mm f1.2 in terms of sharpness.

Hi guys! I’d like to consider a small portable camera to carry around whenever traveling, that takes about as little space and weight as possible. The idea is replacing the mobile phone on a stick, as a lot can go wrong when attempting a silly picture near a lake or waterfall (you get the idea).

I’m in the market for a compact, but durable camera to complement my dumbphone, but also be a potential gateway to 1080p amateur photography, mostly nature and street photography. I’ve narrowed my search to either the Olympus Tough TG-3 or TG-4, but I can’t decide which one to get.

Anyone ever buy a used camera from KEH that was graded “Bargain”? I gather they are graded that way for cosmetic reasons, but that they function properly. What was your experience like?
