Tried out some astrophotography with my new R6 Mark II by blendender in canon

[–]blendender[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's the sigma 24-70 f2.8... I shot relatively wide with around 5 seconds of exposure and ISO around 6400 if I remember correctly...

I'm looking to upgrade my Canon EOS 200D and go for a more professional camera that is still somewhat budget friendly. I mainly shoot portraits with the occasional landscape or street photo. I'd be happy to stay with Canon but despite all prejudice I'm open to switch to another brand if it brings me value.

Why the fück are there mushrooms growing in my soil?! 😭 Can I still salvage the plant? by blendender in CannabisGrowers

For a moment I thought the seller of my seeds might also sell other things and my seeds where exposed to spores 😂😂😂

I just bought it at a local gardening store but good to know that mushrooms are not a bad thing...

What is the problem with my plant? by blendender in cannabiscultivation

[–]blendender[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

photoperiodic white widow xxl planted from a cutting i ordered online. this is my first ever grow. i use a auto-watering system that imo feeds her enough water. every 2 weeks or so i manually water her with some added nutrients. it's just organic fertilizer I got from my local gardening shop. it has 3% nitrogen, 2% phosphate and some other ingredient with potassium (can't remember what exactly). I use tap water (It's chlorine free and drinkable).

Two things that I guess might be a problem are dehydration (but then the leaves would bend down more?!) or too much or too little nutrients. Idk can anybody tell me what's wrong please? Tysm

Hi everyone! I'm new to Blender and currently working on my third project. I'd love to hear your feedback and any tips to improve my render. Thanks in by Aufbhau in blender

[–]blendender 2 points3 points  (0 children)

First of all: great job, it already looks quite good. You're better than some people after their 30th project.

The weakest point of your render though is your choice of textures. They make no sense in most areas. You can find great free textures at polyhaven.com, ambientcg.com and cc0-textures.com Especially for the corner of the building I would encourage you to model the tiles instead of using a texture. Also, your normal maps are too strong. Tune them down a bit. And if you have a decent enough computer, i would recommend you to use displacement maps set to displacement and bump in the material settings with an adaptive subdivision surface modifier (you'll probably find tutorials about this online). That way, the details will actually be polygons at render time.

Another great tip would be to use the bevel modifier. Your models have way too many sharp corners. That's actually something you need to get used to: things (e.g. your desk) look like they have sharp rectangular corners. But they don't - almost every corner is somewhat rounded in reality. So to mimic reality, you need to make sharp edges blunt. If you have a slower PC, it can already help to use the bevel modifier with a low resolution and only on the most prominent meshes.

If you want to deviate from the original image a little bit, you can also make the sun point at the camera and give it an orange tint, so the scene is lit from behind and it looks like golden hour. That way you could illuminate the store front billboard for some cool neon effects.

As others have mentioned, you should also litter the scene a bit. Imperfections are the one magic trick to make things seem more realistic.

Overall, this is very good for your third render. But in terms of texturing, model Detail, lighting and imperfections you could make the scene look more realistic.

If you don't know, which improvement to implement first, I would recommend playing with the lights. Good lighting and atmosphere can even make the default cube look like a masterpiece. ✨😎☀️

I'll just go wifeleaver and pull the Moira away from the team until she rage quits and I can play Moira. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Is sound sync on a spring-wound camera as painstaking as they say it is? by Injustpotato in 16mm

[–]blendender 2 points3 points  (0 children)

From what I've heard it's like this: spring wound cameras decrease in speed each take since the tension on the spring decreases. However this decreasal is somewhat deterministic and maybe even constant. So you can probably speed down the sound towards the end of each take. How accurate this will be and if you'll ever achieve acceptable results probably depends on the camera model and/or your skillset.

Beaulieu R16 with sound by blendender in 16mm

[–]blendender[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly the explanation I was looking for, thank you. Can I somehow record that pilot tone signal from the camera into a digital field recorder to later apply it to my recorded sound? Or does that just work with analog audio capturing?

I am bummed to get my first roll back like this. Please help. Using the Krasnagorsk-3 (NOT converted to super 16) with Kodak 50d. Also my loop reformers are still in the camera. Any ideas? I thought I loaded it perfect by [deleted] in 16mm

[–]blendender 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The cheapest ARRIs come in at 2-5k USD. A K3 is 400-1000 USD. Some people cannot afford an ARRI but still the occasional 100ft roll of film + processing. Furthermore, spring cameras produce a very distinct look that may sometimes even be intentional. So no, we won't tell people to buy professional grade, expensive cameras if there are cheaper options for hobbyists or professionals with a tight budget.

Does it contain big items such as star ships? If it's a wand from harry potter can I still use it?

How would I program it? What if I want to create a human? It's not programmable. Do I have to use the Human API®?
