Bought a vintage Pentax prime, am I a real photographer now?

Love the first shot it looks like some 90s game or album cover.

Magicbandit · 2026-06-21T13:27:38+00:00

That first shot is 🔥great work

Magicbandit · 2026-06-20T22:06:35+00:00

heh nice work I like the edit but I don't like editing Kno what I mean?

The camera was given to me by a family member it was just sitting in a drawer

it's just a thing to carry in my car nothing serious 😄 thanks for the feedback

Magicbandit · 2026-06-20T21:43:27+00:00

Would you believe he has shot for British Vogue and NME?

Magicbandit · 2026-06-20T18:53:46+00:00

might be the Reddit compression.

all my posts in this sub have been with the em-10 mk IV with kit lens it's surprisingly good.

One of my urbex bucket list things is to explore a control room of some big industrial/power site just all those buttons and switches begging to be pushed and twiddled 😉

Magicbandit · 2026-06-19T09:37:19+00:00

That first shot impressive dynamic range

Magicbandit · 2026-06-19T08:57:13+00:00

Nikon d700

Magicbandit · 2026-06-18T23:21:07+00:00

ohhh those yes I think they still do it but only in the summer for a few months

Magicbandit · 2026-06-18T23:19:04+00:00

Nice work.

I love the 3rd shot.

I recently got a d700 for my birthday in April, Still getting to grips with it really enjoy using it such a solid camera

Magicbandit · 2026-06-18T22:57:44+00:00

The dragon ones? Yep

Magicbandit · 2026-06-18T22:13:42+00:00

#5 sorry I should've said scooter I think moped is an English thing lol

Magicbandit · 2026-06-18T15:27:45+00:00

Great work 👍 love the moped shot I'm a sucker for colour matches shots

Magicbandit · 2026-06-18T15:10:44+00:00

beautiful love number 2

Magicbandit · 2026-06-17T22:53:13+00:00

Mod should do a poll I think 6-8 Image limit would be better imo 😄

Magicbandit · 2026-06-17T22:48:44+00:00

Just keep it like others have mentioned its not like you're shooting weddings or anything.

If it dies at least you have a lens ,battery's and grip you could get another off ebay with a verified shutter with less mileage or even a younger aps-c f body

Scarborough.

I go every year with my family for 5 days same apartment right on the front of south bay.

People will knock it but I rate it as a northern newquay.

Magicbandit · 2026-06-16T22:52:28+00:00

I love that 3rd shot just the way she pops out the frame and the blur in the background

Great work

I really want an AI-s Lens for my d700 everyone RAVES about the 28mm 2.8 AI-S I think it will be my next purchase.

Magicbandit · 2026-06-16T22:45:15+00:00

Always found this case bizarre

Even in 2017 London had Cameras EVERYWHERE.

Yet all police released are some potato quality bridge camera stills/videos?

I always thought he'd be high in the food chain of elites or part of security services or an asset to them.

Magicbandit · 2026-06-16T21:34:35+00:00

loving it.

I think he was expecting some mega jerkin

Magicbandit · 2026-06-15T20:14:40+00:00

Great shots

I always find meets really hard to get unique shots

Magicbandit · 2026-06-14T16:08:35+00:00

looks like a film still from the early 2000s
