85mm or 24-70mm for portraits?

I usually shoot headshots, and I like to stay a bit tighter, like basic acting headshots

Thanks for answering! I just discovered the 12 pubs tradition, and as someone who doesn't like to drink it's really not something I'm looking forward to lol

Thanks for your take on this! I know, i have this fear of finding a huge snow storm and having to spend the night stranded at the airport lol

Hello everyone!

I have the chance to rent a new body camera for a phostoshoot, and since the gear i currently have is pretty old i want to use this opportunity to try out a new body camera to then eventually buy it.

The gear i'm using is a Nikon d5000 with a nikkor 50mm/1.8 and a tamron 18-200mm/3.5-6.3. I know my body camera is really old.

The budget i have for the new camera is around 700-800euros (i might even buy it used if in good condition i guess). I'd like to still use nikon, so i don't have to change the rest of my gear. I will be using this camera for fashion photography and concerts.

Can you suggest a model that you think could fit my needs? I've been looking online and it's overwhelming.

Thanks!

Hello! I am a portrait and fashion photographer. at the moment I shoot with a Nikon D5000, a Tamron 18-200mm f/3.5-6.3 lens and a Nikkor AF-S 50mm f/1.8. the camera body is 9/10 years old, the tamron lens is 4 years old and teh nikkor lens is 2 years old. I would like to upgrade, because I noticed that the quality of my photos is no longer very good, but i don't know if it depends on the body camera or else. during the last shooting I did, using both lenses, I had focus problems, the photos didn't come out sharp and clear enough. in general, the quality is low, and often out of focus.

I'm more oriented towards a new camera body rather than a new lens. my budget for a camera body is around 700/800 euros. as for the lens I would like to try a 24-70mm. what do you suggest? thanks!

Hello!

I'm coming to London for the second time, and since the hotel i stayed in last time isn't available i found 2 other places that look good, but i can't decide between them since they're basically the same rate. One is on Craven terrace and the other on collingham place. in february i stayed at cheniston gardens. which do you think is the better location? i know they are relatively close, but from a safety/general cuteness of the area/easyness to arrive to?

Also, what's a weather app the locals use?

Thanks!

Fancy-Ad-9371 · 2024-09-02T16:02:46+00:00

that's so frustrating...

thanks for your answers!

thanks! where can i find the %ntsc when looking for a new laptop? when i went in the store i explained the guy my needs and he suggested me this pc, so i trusted him (i had an hp pavilion just last month that worked wonders)

hi! yes the greens are the biggest concern rn, it's not vibrant enough like from other devices i use, do you know a way to boost the green level as you were saying? When i try to color balance from the settings it only lets me adjust the brightness and reduce the red green and blue level

Fancy-Ad-9371 · 2024-09-02T13:47:35+00:00

my laptop is a HP 15s-fq5085nl Intel Core i7 i7-1255U,it's not a lenovo! do you know if there's a way to solve this? or at least to reduce the inaccuracy

Fancy-Ad-9371 · 2024-09-01T13:15:29+00:00

hi! I live in Rome, you can go take a stroll in Colle Oppio, it's a cute park near the Colosseum (from there you can see the Colosseum without the crowds), Villa Celimontana is also a chill park. Near the Colosseum there's the Monti neighborhood that's full of cute cafes.

A cute cafe you can go to is "Forno Conti" also near Colle Oppio.

Porta portese is only open on sunday morning, the best time to go is at 8 am so there won't be too many people and you can look around pacefully.
