A place to politely discuss the tools, technique and culture of photography.

This is not a good place to simply share cool photos/videos or promote your own work and projects, but rather a place to discuss photography as an art and post things that would be of interest to other photographers.

Other photographers asking about your settings. Like come on, you have 4k gear setup and you don't know that shooting at 100000 iso is bad.

I’m trying to take a photo of my dog jumping over the fence.
I don’t understand why my photos look bad. ISO 3000 for more light. Aperture at 1.8 for bokeh. Shutter speed at 1/20. Is my camera broken?

Hahaha. The amount of time they post to forums for answers outweighs the time they actually experiment with the camera for a solution.

Yes your camera is broken, I recommend a new Sony full frame camera. At least get the Sony a7V with a G-master lens. If you cannot afford it just try a different hobby, you're just not rich enough.

Shutter minimum 1/100 and even higher to stop action.
