Healthy reminder that most photos that are important to people are not important because they were captured with the most hypermodern 300MP mirrorless gigacockextender snoynikkcannot
Important photos are important because they capture an image that people want to see, or would otherwise not be able to see.

I didn't want to see it though.

>When news broke of Mountbatten-Windsor’s arrest, Noble jumped into his car and travelled the six hours from his home in Manchester to Norfolk. He told Reuters there were 20 police stations where Mountbatten-Windsor could have been, but after a tipoff, he headed to the station in the historic market town of Aylsham.

>Hours passed and Noble had made the decision to pack up and start heading to a local hotel, but moments later he was called back: Mountbatten-Windsor’s cars had arrived. This moment as a photographer is terrifying, the chance of getting a well-exposed, sharp image from a moving vehicle in complete darkness is like winning the lottery.

>Noble shot six frames. In the era of film that would be like taking a single frame and crossing your fingers while you wait for it to be developed in a lab later on. Two of the images were blank, the next two showed police; one was out of focus, but the final frame was well composed, sharp, clean and well exposed.

>Despite the unflattering nature of the picture, there is no doubt about the degree of skill – and luck – needed to capture it. Noble would have been contending with reflective glass, which often makes it impossible for a camera to focus. If it does, then getting enough light to hit the subject to allow for correct exposure is the next challenge. Often high-speed flash units are used to create light where there is none.

>Then there is the timing, with a fast-moving vehicle the photographer has fractions of a second to hold down the trigger and hope their shutter speed is fast enough to create a sharp image. All this while attempting not to get hit by a car.

>“You can plan and use your experience and know roughly what you need to do, but still everything needs to align,” said Noble. “When you’re doing car shots it’s more luck than judgment.”

>>4498607
yes of course. not to mention, most of these important, historical photos are almost always captured and shared in jpeg sooc, never in raw

>>4498790
and they always look like total shit

remember bruv, if the average iq is just 100, 50% of people are dumber than that, and 105-110 is considered the real “normal” while 100 is a bit dumb in practice
the average iq of photographers is closer to 95 (in the film days it was more like 115)
since most (digital) photographers are retarded there is an overwhelming chance any given famous photo will be pretty shit and accomplished with the bare minimum of skill. even presidential portraits are looking increasingly amateurish.

>>4498768
What a massive amount of cope over such a shit picture. You could just say it was taken with an iPhone on max zoom and wouldn't second guess it.

>>4498793
Someone posted an official portrait of some congresswoman or something a while ago and the ISO was set to something insane like 64,000 despite being indoors and using studio lighting. The amount of noise was a sight to behold.

>>4498250
>AHHHHH EVERY PHOTO HAS TO BE A WORK OF ART
lol what a faggot

>>4498793
sure.. But how press enforces jpeg and how their photos look like total shit is more of a reflection of our ugly world with no post-processing than photographers being shit. Or to your point, both I suppose.

Its a reflection of how jpeg is almost always terrible. Slide film took huge teams of americas best chemists and engineers to make something that looked good SOOC only for certain kinds of scenes and only with perfect exposure. Japan just can’t replicate that feat and exceed it, not even digitally, especially not while targeting max FPS and battery life when cameras run off literally two AAs in a plastic box and use worse processors than phones.

All digital cameras are negative film cameras. They can’t produce good photos. Just data. The making of the photo remains the duty of the person developing the digital negatives.

Photography was never truthful anyways. Jpeg certainly isnt.
>the camera decided the sky is unusually red today!

>>4498796
Who gives a fuck about the quality? It's the fact that a photo was captured at all which is the real story

>“It was a proper old school news day,” said Noble. He added: “It’s a man shot at night through the back of a windscreen. Is that the best photo I’ve ever taken? No. Is it up there as one of the most important? 100%. When you work in news, it’s not an exact science. The best photos aren’t always the most newsworthy.”
