Is there a way to credit myself for the photograph without having a giant stamp that says my name, like embedding my name? Especially for contests that I want to enter soon.

I haven't purchase the software yet, but I was wondering if you can set up fundy to mark up your products from your lab of choice. Like if I sell prints and the labs list them at $5, would it be easy to list it at $20 for profit? Sorry I feel like I don't have the right words for what I'm asking for

In a 16” X 20” print, would you see the difference between a 61 megapixel Sony and a 100 megapixel medium format camera?

Im thinking about buying a uv filter for my lens as a protective cover just so it doesn't damage but i don't really know what one to buy because i don't wanna cover my $800 lens glass with cheap glass. Any recommendations?

If you dont need/want details. Feel free to skip to the end.

Let me start out by saying that G.A.S. is ingrained in me lol. With that being said, I will most likely continue to aquire more gear in the future. Also, apologies for my bad grammer - Esl.

I recently purchased a few pelican style hard cases (with pluck foam) for my camera equipment in hopes of storing (and maybe organize) my gear. Right now my gear is in a camera bag or piled "neatly" in a boxes (think organizational chaos lol). I have several cameras, lenses, and various accessories. I have full frame and apsc cameras/lenses. I'm not using a cabinet/dresser to store my equipment, but I do see the appeal of doing so. Right now there isn't much space to add a cabinet/dresser in my room. I can be convinced to look more into it if the general consensus leans that way. One concern I have is the humidity here. It's not high, but not something I can ignore. I have a dehumidifier and it fills every month or so. Hence the appeal of airtight cases.

Orignally I was thinking to put all my cameras in one case, and seperate the lenses in the other cases. But on the other hand, I also thought about outfitting a case with what I would bring to an event. I only use ff lenses when using a ff body. But will use both ff/apsc lenses on a apsc body.

When traveling, I just pack everything in one of my camera bags. And unpack it all when I get back home. Leaving a few things in my bag I know I'll most likely use every time. I do like the idea of using a hard case for any events I can drive to. I do not like the idea of checking in camera equipment when flying. I prefer to keep them on my person.

TLDR - For anyone who has several bodies/lenses that uses cases - how to you store your equipment?

Hi! I love to take photos of animals and wildlife; especially birds. I like to post these photos online, but as the years have gone on, my friends and family have asked me to give them prints of my best photos and I just can't. The birds in the photos are interesting, but the photos themselves are bad in my opinion. They're usually blurry, over/under exposed, and after doing all the cropping and editing I need to do to make the picture look "better", it still looks like garbage. I'll admit, I've never taken a photography course. But I've been working at improving with this camera for the past 8 years, and it feels like nothing has changed. I genuinely don't know what I am doing wrong, and how I can get beautiful photos like I see my peers post. It doesn't need to be magazine quality; just less embarrassing than this.

I have an 8 year old Nikon D5600 with a 70-300mm lens that I use to point and shoot with auto focus and auto settings. I know I shouldn't be doing either, but when I use manual focus, I always seem to get it wrong, and whenever I shoot in manual, I always overexpose my photo. Literally, what it shows on my camera screen is not the same as what appears on my computer. I have shaky hands, which doesn't help the sharpness of the photo. The photos come out as 6000x4000 jpgs, which I crop and edit in the Microsoft photos app on my pc to try fix the exposure. I tried shooting in RAW one time, but all the photos came out as grainy alongside the jpgs which looked normal.

Like I said, I don't know what I'm doing wrong. Is it my camera? Is it how I'm shooting the photo? How they're being edited? Am I just doing everything wrong, and I need to take a class on photography? I would appreciate any feedback at all, and I can provide any more photos for reference. I'm willing to pay to upgrade my camera/software, but I don't want to make purchases for either if they're unnecessary. Thank you so much.

This is taken in a museum (Istanbul Museum of Modern Art), but i’d like to see the original picture and I don’t know what’s it called. (What I mean by original is just a better resolution and looking at it straight not from an angle) I know the photographer is Izzet Keribar that’s all. I’ve searched for it for 4 hours even on his instagram and I simply cannot find it. Thank you!

I have accidentally recorded several clips with the audio off for some reason (im not sure how it happened) all of these videos are regular speed there’s just no audio. Is there any way for me to get the audio back?

So currently I have a Nikon D5300 with a 18-55mm, I haven't been able to shoot because I've been wanting a 200mm lens, I now have the money for it 1k budget, but I'm thinking if its better for me to buy a A6400 with a 18-200mm f/3.5-6.3 OSS lens or a AF-S NIKKOR 70-200mm f/2.8G ED VR II to upgrade my current body, or if theres any other suggestions to which camera I can buy with lens my budget can extend to 1.2k but trying to keep it at 1k and below. Please any suggestions. I'm trying to improve my sports photography. I was previously taking photo on a Nikon COOLPIX P530 since I had no lens for the D5300.

^^ Lumix camera sorry! Hi guys I have always ejected SD cards from cameras and inserted into a Pc to transfer images/videos.

Today I ejected the card when the camera was off, inserted it to the PC. Successfully copied them, ejected. When I inserted back into camera it said “insert SD Card again” tried a few times no success. I then inserted back into the PC and it says to reformat. I haven’t clicked this cause I did this once before and it broke completely so I’ve ejected it again.

What can be done about this? This happened at the start of this year so this was a repurchase and there’s no reason it should happen it was ejected safely, not reformatted. Cam was off. First use it formatted automatically to camera.

I found out after there’s a procedure for copying images with this cam via a software which I have working now for next time.

But wondering if there’s something I can do about the card as this is the second one that’s broken now

Thank you!

I am new to photography so I just created an instagram account to post my photos. I use lightroom to edit and export at 16:9 for landscape and 90% quality but it always looks so much better in LR than what I see on instagram.

Is there anywhere else I can post where the photo isn’t so heavily compressed?

I have a speedlite EX III-RT that I'm using with my R8. I'm unsure if the auto zoom on the speedlite is operating correctly. When I have it in auto mode it does not show the zoom length, whereas if you select one it actually shows it. Anybody know if it's supposed to show the zoom length when in auto?

Thanks

Hello, I’m new to photography and have a good day job but have taken a shine to photography. Took a basic Canon T7 kitlens and started shooting sometime back, and have also got a small regular gig. I’m pretty confident and have planned to work more in photography but my t7 may not work well, I am planning to shoot sports, events and portraits.

Hence, decided to buy Canon R6mkii, 2 lenses, worth around 10k dollars next month.

My question is, if I fail or maybe don’t like photography and leave it in let’s say year, how much would my gear retain it’s value on 10k. R6mkii, rf lenses 24-70 2.8L and 70-200 2.8L, considering I won’t be paying any taxes (the save on black Fri). I mean if I’ve to sell 10k gear next year in good condition, how much can I expect to get back.

I’m not being pessimistic here but just want to know if someone would have any idea.

Going on a trip to Copenhagen soon with my Olympus OM30. The weather will most likely be overcast with sunset around 4pm.

Do I pull this to 400 or keep it at box speed 800?

Any others tips are welcome 😊

Hi there, I just bought a used rebel T5 and wondering if the sensor is scratched or just dirty?

What can I do to fix these spots?

My son enjoys taking photos on his iPhone and has said he’d like to be a photographer when he grows up. His photos are very basic of course but when we’re out he wants to capture the beauty he sees in what’s around him. He’d like a camera for Christmas that introduces him a bit more into the world of photography but it can’t be too complicated and risk putting him off! Any suggestions please?

I have repaired a lens I found on a flee market and gifted it to a friend. Not knowing that the difference betwen AF and AF-S is pretty much day and night. From what I understand the AF-S lenses have the focusing engine already build into the lens, and the AF lenses need it to be build into the camera since they can only be moved mechanicly.
Is there like an adapter that "adds" this engine for AF lenses to be used on bodies that just support AF-S lenses?
I couldn't find anything from googeling so I guess it is either very specific or does not exists at all. Do you guys have any idea what I should look for?

Taking a trip soon and I am thinking of upgrading the pocket camera I have. I am relatively amateur in my skill level, mostly shoot in some version of automatic settings, although I would like to learn more. Given that, I wonder if an upgrade would make much of a difference.

I currently have a Sony Cyber-Shot HX80. I initially bought that for its zoom to take birding photos for ID purposes. For birding I've upgraded to a Panasonic FZ1000 II, which does slightly better (I've yet to figure out what I'm doing wrong with this camera to get crisper photos, although it may just be due to nearly all pictures being fully zoomed in).

The Canon Powershot G7 Mark III seems like it would be an upgrade in photo quality from the Sony HX80 at around the same size. It also has a decent optical zoom for the occasional birding photo.

I am okay with splurging a little, but is there that much of a quality difference between the Sony and the Canon G7 to justify spending over $1000?

Hey everyone, I'm looking to get a camera that isn't too bulky (currently have a Nikon D300s and it's too bulky) to use for travel and everyday family photography. I'd mainly use it for still shots, but would like to take some videos as well. I was initially all in on the ZV-1 due to its portability, but I feel I might miss all the functions of my old DSLR. I can get the ZV-1 for $300 or the Alpha 7II with the lens for $450. Any input would be appreciated!

I'm a beginner photographer, I've been taking some pictures for my schools rugby club, but I am not in Love with my current camera (Lumix Panasonic DMC fz-200) and I wanted to upgrade it. Im planning on getting a DSLR with a lense (maybe 2) from Mpb. I wanted to keep my budget to a max of 400 euros. What would you recommend?

I am heading to Tokyo with my family over Christmas and I am not sure what to bring. In the past, I would normally take something like a camera body, ultrawide zoom, standard zoom and two primes. Times have changed and now it's my wife, my mother-in-law and my five year-old on the trip.

I was thinking of taking my Ricoh GR III, Ricoh GR IIIx and maybe something else to supplement. Options:

• Sony a6700 + 15mm f/1.4 G (or another lens)
• Panasonic S9 + 20-60 + a prime
• Ricoh GXR + a fast prime (e.g., Voigtlander 35mm f/1.4)
• Don't bother taking another system/lens and maybe take the wide angle or telephoto adapter for the GR III

Recently shot some photos at game 1 of the World Series, but since I was sitting directly from home plate the safety netting was in the way. Is there any way for me to remove the netting + make the baseball more clear? Or are all my images completely ruined? lol

Polaroids' outer layer, for example, seems to be made of a more chemically inert polymer: my dampened microfiber cloth just kept sliding smoothly.

I am currently looking for a camera and a lens that would work well for taking photos of my dog and other dogs during dog competitions. Basically I want to have something that’s easy to learn for a beginner and something that is able to relatively easily take pictures of dogs moving at high speeds (so basically a camera with a good autofocus and a decent fps). It would be also great if that camera would be able to record decent videos with slow motion so that I can capture those clutch moments during dog sports competition (although it’s not my main objective when choosing a camera).

My budget is around $1500. I was considering cameras like Canon R10/R8 or Sony A6xxx (I was mostly thinking about Canon models, but I’m a little bit hesitant, cause the RF lenses are extremely expensive. At the beginning I want to probably just start with the kit lens and R10 + RF 18-150 seemed like a decent option).

I’d be happy to hear what you guys are recommending for that kind of use case.

Hey there. I am okay at flash but not special. I see the (obvious) value in using CTO to match the color of ambient/artificial light indoors.

How many people actually measure the temperature with a 'color meter' of some kind so you can actually get a perfect match?

I know tungsten is 3200k or whatever so a Full CTO is good. But is it really THAT easy to know if it's tungsten, and whether there's anything else going on that is making it different from 3200k for instance?

Hi, I have just bought one a6600, and being a beginner, I am confused between 18-200(used $360), 18-105 f4(used $340), 18-135(used $300), please advise me which one should I get? Especially at their extreme ends of focal length, as I am mostly interested into travel and street photography

Also, please suggest any other versatile lens in your opinion or experiences.
