i carry a small compact film camera on me usually. although its a bit of a pain.

carrying a leica around ur neck all the time would fucking suck

no they aren't really fashionable or anything. they don't look cool.

although its pretty much the best camera so it would be worth carrying. but yeah, not fashionable

As long as you have a passion, or at least some sort of interest in photography I think it's fine. You already stated that you do so yeah your good. What I'm wondering is if my new EOS M is homo to carry around. Got it on sale with 22m prime for $280 and it is much better to travel with than my 600D.

Its better if you use your phone. Camera's are obsolete now. Your phone can do everything a camera can do and more.

Unless you plan on making huge prints, carrying around a camera now just makes you look like a tard.

canon rebel series is pretty good. pick up a mid tier canon zoom lens (like 18mm-70mm) and go on ebay for a 50mm f1.4 canon lens, it will help a ton for low light. pirate the adobe suite and learn it via youtube.

>> No.9995271

>>9995175
disregard this opinion. unless something groundbreaking hit the market recently, phone cameras do not have an optical zoom (if they do its pitiful at best) and instead crop the image, are shit at low light or anything really besides midday overcast, and even though the megapixels seem high the sensors are shit because of how small they have to be. if you are doing anything beyond snapchat, get a real fucking camera.

I own a mamiya rz67, a canon dslr with nice lenses and a canon s100 for point and shoot work and unless I'm doing a paid job or something I intend to print large, I just use my phone.

Low light shooting is catching up fast, optical zoom is rarely used anyway because you can usually walk up to whatever you wanna shoot. I've made 8x10 crystal clear prints off my s5's camera.

You don't know what you're talking about.

In the context of fashion, a phone is the superior more culturally acceptable option. A good photographer blends in and puts people at ease. Everyone has a phone, everyone shoots photos. Nobody will notice a guy with a phone because its common place. Everyone will notice a guy with a normal camera.

A real camera might have slight edges in technical ability, but a phone isn't far behind and makes up for it by making you less visible.

Butthurt amateurs.

I'm laughing my ass off right now. you decide to name drop a medium format camera shortly after saying how cameras are obsolete. Then you should know of all the clever things you can do playing with f stops, exposure, and shutter speed that you cannot replicate with a phone. can your phone take a selfie of your duck face or a pic of you and your friends holding sholders and print it decently, sure, but for getting creative pictures you just cannot easily replicate basic camera functions in post process without spending a ton of extra time and being crippled by trying to manipulate a relatively crappy source file.

>>9995335
who cares if you carry a camera, no one will really care. throw it in your bag or leave it in your car. I kinda get what you are implying by it being weird if you decide to throw in a dslr with your standard phone-keys-wallet daily carry, but if you want to take good photos a proper camera and far more importantly, a proper lens will always be supreme until a manufacturer figures out how to package a full size lense into the small chassis of a phone.

Phones are also smaller and more easy to carry. I don't care if you wanna get a camera dude. I'm just making a case that phones have a lot of benefits.

Fuji and Panasonic make some really good and fashionable looking cameras atm, if that's what you really want. Carrying around a dslr is not /fa/ and never will be.

>>9995366

I merely name dropped to show that I use all, but within the context of this thread, which is mostly a point and shoot street photography function, a phone is an ideal choice for the aforementioned reasons. Its also very slim and you can take it anywhere concealed, which is a big plus imo.

Of course its not going to generate a 6x7 pristine exposure of a Rz67 but that's not always the point, especially in photography these days. The medium has shifted. If you wanna be a purist fine, but I don't think that's wat OP meant.

It's all about what you're takin pics of mayne.

If you're taking erotic photos of young women in light, minimalist rooms, then a camera is perfectly acceptable. Or if you're taking photos of dangerous animals in the wild or some shit.

If you're taking pictures of your designer vinyl toys or landscapes or queer shit like that, you should off yourself
