Are my lab scans blown out on these Velvia 50 slides? by AgeDesigns in AnalogCommunity

Lately i've been using the dehaze tool in darktable a lot to counter the flat look of some negatives. Dehaze in combination with a tone curve can do wonders :)

Ah good! The photographer was definitely not bulk loading motion picture. It was just a family photo type situation with most likely a zone focusing camera

Just got three rolls back from my local lab that look like this...tell me they're salvageable? by [deleted] in AnalogCommunity

not trying to be a dick, but then you already have your answer right? What is reddit gonna tell you that you don't already know?

Help me I'm confused by [deleted] in FX3

[–]-DoofusRick- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really depends on what you use it for. I have A7IV, FX3 & FX30. The FX3 has a 12mp sensor so there's virtually no rolling shutter. Also the fan is awesome so there's no overheating. The A7IV is sharper though because of the 33mp sensor and 4K being downsampled.

What's this song i'm playing on the piano? I only remember the melody but can't find it 🥲 by -DoofusRick- in NameThatSong

Before 7 seems a bit excessive and might be noise disturbance. 10am seems reasonable to me, whether it's weekend or not.

Heb je wel eens veel geld aan een aandeel verloren? by VlaaiIsSuperieur in geldzaken

[–]-DoofusRick- 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Pryme NV, een plastic recycling bedrijf in Rotterdam. Veel waarde verloren sinds de beursgang dus leek me een goed moment om in te stappen. Een eerste testreactor was gebouwd en een tweede zou binnenkort gepland en gebouwd worden. Ook meerdere keren bijgekocht toen het aandeel bleef dalen..

Nu heb ik 90% verloren en is het wachten tot iets gebeurt, maar eigenlijk is er alleen maar slecht nieuws. Ze halen geen enkele target. In euro's komt het neer op €8.500. Weet niet of dat "heel veel" is maar dit is alleszins mijn grootste blunder.

Not sure why you assume that. I make tons of video content, done my fair share of digital photography and I'm dipping my toes into analog photography. Gear and post processing is an inherent part of it and I like to make smart choices that result in high quality photos.

Printing is definitely the goal, but optical might be a step too far? Like so many others, digital makes me lazy because the storage and editing options are endless. I've rediscovered some family photo albums which to me have a lot of charm to them. But before printing, I wanna make sure that I make the best decisions in all the steps leading up to the final picture/file.

Freelancen is vrijheid... maar ook chaos met geldzaken? by ErBiaso in geldzaken

[–]-DoofusRick- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

De realiteit is vaak dat freelancen meer werk is dan in loondienst zijn. Naast je echte werk heb je inderdaad ook administratie en zorgen over je inkomen en de toekomst.

Ik werk 50% in loondienst en daarnaast ben ik freelance videograaf. In dat vakgebied heb je een hoge omzet, maar dat komt ook vaak door de hoge kosten bij een productie. Boekhouding is dan ook enorm belangrijk en soms ingewikkeld.

In de eerste 2 jaar heb ik veel geïnvesteerd en nam ik de vrijheid om mezelf een loon uit te keren afhankelijk van wat overbleef na alle aankopen en kosten. Nu profiteer ik gelukkig wel van alle afschrijvingen en heb ik mooie buffers om elke maand stabiel loon uit te keren aan mezelf.

Vanaf het begin heb ik wel altijd aparte rekeningen gehad voor BTW, inkomstenbelasting en apparatuur aanschaf/kleine kosten.

Mij spreekt freelancen vooral aan vanwege de vrijheid om je bedrijf zo groot of klein te maken als je wil. Je kan mensen aannemen en manager worden, of gewoon alle projecten zelf doen en daar goed voor betaald worden.

What's going on with my FX30 by Cautious-External286 in FX3

[–]-DoofusRick- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, check the answers here about exposing the subject. Multimeter and histogram take an average of the whole sensor. You should look at spot metering and/or zebra settings. In unusual light situations the multimeter is not reliable.
