anyone here with a 50mm f1.8 find that in some pictures it seems like it the focus point is in the middle, regardless of where you want the focus point. Maybe i'm just not understanding something with it but it really seems like a lot of my pics the middle will be in focus regardless of where i choose my focus point.

All shot on a medium format 6x4.5 Bronica ETRS. Neopan 400 pushed two stops.

A little too contrasty, but I daren't expect anything else from Neopan.

The last shot is of a deaf man communicating the best way he can to people who don't know sign language. If you wanna know more about composition, lighting and the reasoning behind the shot. Just ask.

Well... I know this is going to sound clich?... All those fancy names and what not, forgive my ignorance:pp But I would like to hear it from someone on neowin... Why film:pp ? Would it really be that hard to get it done on a full frame dSLR and then somehow postprocess (aye... this will probably get me hanged around here by some films lovers:pp ) ?

Also, the last shot is way to dark, however, this would be a lighting and composition question:pp so, is that what you aimed for?

Forgive my gibberish...

They're all very dark. I'm testing currently which film pushes best to suit my open ended documentary brief set in my bA Hons photography. I'll go into more detail soon, but I've gotta hit the darkroom for a good few hours!

Film is lush:DD and a medium format digital back is going to set me back about 20 thousand USD for one of the cheaper ones

I'm studying at UCLan, saxondale.

The reason they're dark is due to me using a low ISO film. The shoot I'm doing is about the demise of public houses, and finding a high-iso medium format film is practically a waste of time.

Pushing the film is shooting it at a higher ISO than its configured to do so, and over developing the film to try and balance it. I'm currently trying different dev chemicals, and I'm soon going to be trying stand development.

Stand development usually lasts around an hour dev time without agitation.

As regards to your comment, maudit. I choose my medium format camera for a multitude of reasons, one primarily being that the brief set to actually attain my degree sets out that I MUST shoot film in order to show skill development in that area.

Another reason is because the tones and ability to control grain, and enlarge the negative to any size I wish. A full frame dSLR has a limit, pixels. Negatives have no limit.

The last shot is dark for a few reasons. I wanted to portray the feeling of insecurity and lonliness the man feels every day in that pub. He's deaf, he can't communicate with people, because they're too ignorant to learn sign language. He's restricted to over affluent acting, a pen and paper. Don't forget, a picture isn't about clean lines, perfect composition, good exposures and nice colours.

But don't let me lead you to believe I hate digital, I love it. I shoot it a lot, I much prefer digital over film. But when it concerns fine art prints, and having my own control over my negs, film for the win :)

I love the coloring in that shot, MDG.

Well I went back to my usual spot and came across about a half dozen or so cows chillin' under 'my' tree! Here's my best shots.

    • Flameshot 14.0 Final

      By Copernic · Posted

      Flameshot 14.0 Final by Razvan Serea Flameshot is a free and open-source, cross-platform tool to take screenshots with many built-in features to save you time. Using Flameshot is as simple as launching, dragging the selection box to cover the area you want to capture, making annotations as needed in on-screen and saving the shot to your computer, all with a very simple and straightforward interface. Flameshot allows users to simply upload their screenshots directly to the cloud in order to easily share it with others. You can upload your image directly to Imgur with a single click and share the URL with others. In-app screenshot editing - You can choose to add an arrow mark, highlight text, blur a section (blur or pixelate an area), add a text, draw something, add a rectangular/circular shaped border, add an incrementing counter number, and add a solid color box with Flameshot's built-in editing tools. Command-line interface (CLI) - Flameshot has several commands you can use in the terminal without launching the GUI via a command line interface. The command line interface lets you script Flameshot and use it as the subject of key binds. Flameshot 14.0 release notes: This release brings major improvements to multi-monitor support, fractional scaling support, new capture workflows, and a long list of bug fixes across all platforms. Changelog: New Multi-Monitor Capture Workflow New monitor selection screen before capture for better multi-monitor and mixed-scaling support.

Added legacy X11 fallback option for minimal window managers. New D-Bus capture API for scripting and automation. Windows Enhancements Global screenshot hotkeys now supported (not limited to Print Screen). New portable mode stores settings next to the executable. Clipboard now always uses PNG format for better compatibility. CLI & Platform Updates Redesigned flameshot screen command with per-monitor capture support. Added native Nix Flake support. More compact launcher UI and improved update notifications. Major Fixes Multiple Wayland stability fixes, including KDE Plasma crash fixes. Clipboard compatibility improvements for GNOME, Wayland, X11, Windows, and macOS. Fixed D-Bus hangs, capture crashes, and HiDPI region issues. Other Changes Dropped Ubuntu 20.04 (Focal) support.
