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.

How much “bokeh” is misunderstood. It can be good or bad, not more or less.

“How much zoom does that have?” when I’m using a (rented) 600 f/4. It doesn’t zoom…

Photographers who look at others work and say “that’s great!” when there are so many things wrong with it, and firstly the person’s facial expression is garbage.

People who used Godox lights before and have switched to Profoto, and assume they can see the power of every light in the trigger. The new trigger can do it but only with the newest lights, and the number of people who think Profoto can fix the old trigger is astonishing, or that “it should work that way because of the price”. Listen idiot, if you’ve been using their gear since before TTL you’d understand.

Those who think the front diffusion of a softbox is all-powerful and can reset the inverse square law to restart there. Um, no; get out your light meter, measure it, and do the math.
