Why is “x” the symbol for the angle? It’s making me uncomfortable.

Bottom one is really stable-that's really close to how the Army teaches firing from a standing position, besides where his feet are.

The art graduate's angle does nothing to change the picture. Compared to the tourist they just moved back and down slightly. Asian is right.

Last week I saw two asians tourists shooting a photo at a pigeon on the ground.

The American pigeons get pretty big when they feed on McDonald's fries.

Nah, an italian, perfectly average pigeon, it was just sitting smooshed on the ground,and they were taking photos like they never saw one.

With the exception of the tourist (who's just using a point-n-shoot), all of these are using an improper stance for preventing camera shake.

The art graduate pose is really unsafe, Asians have it right. How are you supposed to recover from the giant recoil from shooting the photo?

7 years ago | Likes 1876 Dislikes 3

I figure Asians just like to keep a lower center of balance martial arts stance, in case kung-fu fighting.

7 years ago | Likes 10 Dislikes 0

jump right as youtake the shot so the frce makes you do a sick backflip

7 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

Don't forget the weight shift as the memory card fills up.

7 years ago | Likes 28 Dislikes 0

bc of the different types of shooting. Asian applies burst or full auto mode, but art student manually reloads a homemade SD cart each shot.

It's not really the caliber of the photo that matters, it's that the velocity of the photons are ~1c.

These pictures are ancient. The ceras that asians wield nowadays are fucking enormous. Makes me feel a little self conscious.

Look, just get a bigger compensator than what they have

What do you think happens when you take a photo? Cannon is the brand name, not the resulting fire.

The muzzle brake is right there on the end of the lens. I bet you don't even know what the legal definition of an "assault camera" IS

7 years ago | Likes 8 Dislikes 1

Well is it high capacity?

7 years ago | Likes 4 Dislikes 0

It depends on your state. In Blue states you can barely fit high-caliber Megapixels. Shoot a couple macro shots at short range.

Us Asians always are assuming the tripod position because we’re built to look through camera lenses. “Eyes always in widescreen”

Ok this may announce my stupidity but why doesn't the art student take a step back?

7 years ago | Likes 76 Dislikes 1

Not quite sure there’s any stability benefit to that pose and if there were maybe for a few inches of elevation. It’s more about arms/hands.

7 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

It's cuz we put ourselves into the shot. We art grads can end up in weird poses

7 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

She's locked into stance and doing microadjustments for framing, because cropping is for poseurs.

7 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

Actually it's not as much how far back they are, but more the height they are at.

7 years ago | Likes 33 Dislikes 1

Because like every other human being on earth, she sometimes make choices that aren’t 100% logical.

7 years ago | Likes 18 Dislikes 2

She likely set her feet and then moved her head back and forth to find the frame she wanted.

7 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 1

The real question though—why is everyone all up in her business about it?

7 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 5

As an honours degree art student, we don't do that shit in reality (totally not pissed off at stereotypes)

7 years ago | Likes 16 Dislikes 6

I've done a little work in photojournalism; I was always more worried about the angle and framing of the shot over my stance.
