Essential The Official Photography Thread

Which sites do you guys use the most and why? Flickr, Google Photos, 500px, Dropbox...? I know most everyone uses IG for exposure so I'll just leave that one out.

I'm trying to decide between which I want to use as my go to online storage site. I use Google photos a lot right now but when it comes to link to sites and such its trash at this. I feel like 500px or Flickr would be better.

I used to use Flickr the most, then it was Tumblr, now it's IG.

Lagerstroemia?

Probably,ain't too familiar with plants/flowers. Looked it up and it does look similar.

That's my 2nd time going down to the Salton Sea. First time was 2 years ago and I went to the west side instead of Bombay Beach which is on the east side of the sea. Honestly I think I prefer the west side and Desert Shores. Sounds weird saying it, with the whole area looking like something you'd see in an apocalyptic movie, but I feel like Bombay Beach is the commercialized side with festivals and art shows and the other towns are wastelands.

Found my post from the first time there.




The whole area of Palm Springs/Salton Sea/Joshua Tree makes for some real dope photography options. I'm a solo shooter and don't really like shooting people, but you can get some really great photos with models out there.

as soon as this weather breaks, i'ma be out there shooting... fukk this heat tho

Really wish that Nikon would stop fukking around and build a solid APS-C mirrorless system.

If i made as much bread from photography as i would like, i'd cop the new 850...

but i agree, I want to use my current glass with a nikon mirrorless and not have to cop an x-pro 2... but this might be happening soon

If anyone is interested I have a sony a6000 camera body only slightly used for the low.

Can any of my good brethren pass the mustard or point me in the right direction for the Canon C-Log?
I have a laid back office job and at night I do the recording studio thing.
Recently I been getting my feet wet with photography and actually helped out with a human resources video for a company my friend works for.
I showed the finished video to my HR department and now they want to contract me to shoot a similar video for them.
I don't know nearly as much as you guys do about photography but from what I read online the C-Log will help me get a flat image. (correct?)
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Rep pending.

This is great information. Thank you.
I just finished watching all of them.
Do you shoot with a Canon?
Do you use the EOS HD C-Log or the Technicolor Cinestyle Log?

So just made the switch from Canon to Sony. Got to try the 6D Mark II and was disappointed so sold all my Canon gear and here I am. At the moment I have

Sony A7ii & A7R
55mm 1.8
28-70 3.5-5.6 kit lens
14mm 2.8 Samyang
Zeiss 35mm 2.8

At this point, my next lens is gonna be the 85mm 1.8, but if anyone has any vintage/film lens suggestions let me know.
