Photograph and Camera talk

Took a walk around lower Manhattan & over the Brooklyn bridge last week, still learning but enjoy taking photographs.

that's a nice film camera 4c. may i ask if it's full manual or aperature/ shutter speed priority?
i currently have a canon av-1 with aperature priority. though it's a little hard shooting cause i don't have a readily available place to wash my own film. -
just wondering. do you shoot film often? what film do you normally use?

Have your own darkroom 4c? Or sending them out?

All StaR…great prints!!
Thanks!
@tmg:Great prints, love the nails!
Thanks, It’s the affect of many yard sale signs. The community that happens around telephone poles is fascinating. It’s an entire unofficial economy.
@Jordonf9:Have your own darkroom 4c? Or sending them out?
My school has a great dark room.

Our Nikon D3 has 230K shutter actuations. The mean time between failure on a D3 is 300K. So I just found a back up on a local auction site Nikon D750 with 239 shutter actuations. It will be hand delivered shortly…..Think I'll take it to Thailand to try and learn how to use it.....

I am waiting for Canon to step up their game with their next big action/high frame per second camera. The EOS 1-DX isn't a big enough jump forward from my EOS 1D Mk IV. I did get to play with a DX at a convention and it does have a beautiful shutter performance compared to my Mk IV, but I am guessing I have WELL over a million photos taken with that one camera alone. I should see if I can find the counter…ha.
My studio camera is the EOS 5D-MarkIII. Beautiful camera, battery lasts well enough, love having full frame compared to X1.2 or so I had before with studio work years ago. Haven't really messed with a lot of filming with her, only a little.
Cameras are much more "equal" nowadays compared to even 5 years ago. The DSLR is supposed to be dead in so many years time, as well as all wet chemical processed photos. All dry in the future.

Bring it to Japan, I'll show you how to use it

I've been trawling around some of the news sites this morning as NAB is happening right now. I'm a bit late to the party, but have just seen the announcement of the Canon XC10.
It's a fixed lens camera that can shoot 4K video, with a 305 Mbps broadcast quality codec, and 12 MP stills. It's got a 27-576 mm equivalent zoom lens, and possibly professional grade (i.e. metal body) build quality.
Downsides are that it can't shoot RAW images, and there aren't XLR connectors for microphones.
The amateur videographer community has already slated it, because they think it's expensive for the functionality on offer. But, as usual, I think that they're missing the point.

But if you wanted XLR connections you could bolt an Atomos Shogun onto it.
