⚄︎ Perchance

This is a Lemmy Community for perchance.org, a platform for sharing and creating random text generators.

Feel free to ask for help, share your generators, and start friendly discussions at your leisure :)

This community is mainly for discussions between those who are building generators. For discussions about using generators, especially the popular AI ones, the community-led Casual Perchance forum is likely a more appropriate venue.

See this post for the Complete Guide to Posting Here on the Community!

1. Please follow the Lemmy.World instance rules.

2. Be kind and friendly.

4. Only post about stuff related to perchance.

  • Please only post about perchance related stuff like generators on it, bugs, and the site.

5. Refrain from requesting Prompts for the AI Tools.

  • We would like to ask to refrain from posting here needing help specifically with prompting/achieving certain results with the AI plugins (text-to-image-plugin and ai-text-plugin) e.g. "What is the good prompt for X?", "How to achieve X with Y generator?"
  • See Perchance AI FAQ for FAQ about the AI tools.
  • You can ask for help with prompting at the 'sister' community Casual Perchance, which is for more casual discussions.
  • We will still be helping/answering questions about the plugins as long as it is related to building generators with them.

6. Search through the Community Before Posting.

I was looking through the tutorial, and i was reading the section on making vars, skip ahead a few weeks, and while trying to figure out why i keep getting something that looks not photographic quality, many times, but sometimes, very high photographic quality, -like when i select through photography styles.-

So while looking around I learned yesterday that it's understood "the best way" to get the best photographic quality in Flux Schnell, is to include a Professional camera Setup. And without a specific camera's range details, like settings ie a calibrated hardware configuration, i get cartoony/drawn/anime/manga/sketched kinda stuff.

So while looking around at different Professional cameras, lenses, lens types, and focal lengths: i found that diagram, after a few minutes, i thought, "Hey, this could be useful as an intricate var for doing Professional High Quality Photographic Images", Since also and if it works like I think it should, it would work as if using professionally configured & calibrated camera gear, with each camera models, having multiple calibrated configurations for really professional high quality ship.

so far i have this:

CAM = Using A {Canon EOS R5 Mark II|Nikon Z8|Fujifilm GFX100 II|Sony A7R V|Panasonic|Polaroid|Sony A9 III|Canon EOS 1D X Mark III|Nikon D850|Blackmagic Cinema Camera 6K|Hasselblad X2D 100C|OM System OM-1 |I}
SUPERTELEPHOTO = [CAM] With A Super Telephoto  {600|500|400|300}MM Lens
TELEPHOTO = [CAM] With A Telephoto {300|200|135|100}MM Lens
MEDIUMTELEPHOTO = [CAM] With A Medium Telephoto {100|85|80|70}MM Lens
NORMAL = [CAM] With A Normal {70|50}MM Lens
WIDEANGLE = [CAM] With A Wide Angle {35|28|24}MM Lens
EXTREMEWIDEANGLE = [CAM] With An Extreme Wide Angle {20MM|14MM|Fisheye} Lens

However, the lenses and sizes should be used, for certain shots like this from the image:

600 mm 500 mm 400 mm 300 mm SUPER TELEPHOTO Long distance subjects, birds
300 mm 200 mm 135 mm 100 mm TELEPHOTO Close by Wildlife, Sports
100 mm 85 mm 80 mm 70 mm MEDIUM TELEPHOTO Portrait, Children 
70 mm 50 mm NORMAL Average Situation, Snapshots
35 mm 28 mm 24 mm WIDE ANGLE Landscapes. Large Group Portraits 
20 mm 14 mm Fisheye EXTREME WIDE ANGLE Architecture, Interiors

So the specific ranges, should be used for the camera models functional range, types and sizes of lenses compatible, kinds of shots it will be used for and best focal points for the shot. The configurations work best with.

i'm uncertain about how to implement pairing the camera models to the lens types, sizes, focal lengths, shot types and angles. all of those facets/conditions? should be in those vars above, as of right now those vars above could make some good images here and there but, they should only be used for specific types of shots, with correct lenses and settings.

any idea how to maybe do that? TIA

the create instance plugin would be your best bet.

Who told you this? Like...why?

so btw just as a bit of forewarning, unless you put all this stuff onto another page separately from the gen they only work on no style.

// ------------------ CAMERA BODIES ------------------ CAM_CANON = Canon EOS R5 Mark II CAM_NIKON = Nikon Z8 CAM_FUJI = Fujifilm GFX100 II CAM_SONY = Sony A7R V CAM_BLACKMAGIC = Blackmagic Cinema Camera 6K CAM_HASSELBLAD = Hasselblad X2D 100C

// ------------------ CAMERA SETUPS ------------------ // Each of these includes a compatible focal range and shot purpose.

SUPERTELEPHOTO = [ Using A {CAM_CANON|CAM_NIKON|CAM_SONY} With A Super Telephoto {600|500|400|300}MM Lens – Ideal For Long Distance Subjects, Birds, Wildlife ]

TELEPHOTO = [ Using A {CAM_CANON|CAM_NIKON|CAM_SONY|CAM_FUJI} With A Telephoto {300|200|135|100}MM Lens – Perfect For Close By Wildlife, Sports ]

MEDIUMTELEPHOTO = [ Using A {CAM_CANON|CAM_FUJI|CAM_HASSELBLAD|CAM_SONY} With A Medium Telephoto {100|85|80|70}MM Lens – Ideal For Portraits And Children ]

NORMAL = [ Using A {CAM_CANON|CAM_NIKON|CAM_SONY|CAM_FUJI} With A Normal {70|50}MM Lens – Great For Everyday Shots, Snapshots, Street Photography ]

WIDEANGLE = [ Using A {CAM_CANON|CAM_NIKON|CAM_FUJI|CAM_BLACKMAGIC} With A Wide Angle {35|28|24}MM Lens – Excellent For Landscapes, Large Group Portraits ]

EXTREMEWIDEANGLE = [ Using A {CAM_BLACKMAGIC|CAM_FUJI|CAM_HASSELBLAD} With An Extreme Wide Angle {20MM|14MM|Fisheye} Lens – Perfect For Architecture And Interiors ]

Then you can call one of these at generation time as your CAMSETUP var

CAMSETUP = {SUPERTELEPHOTO|TELEPHOTO|MEDIUMTELEPHOTO|NORMAL|WIDEANGLE|EXTREMEWIDEANGLE}

Optional — Add Config Flavor

CONFIG = Shot In RAW Format, ISO {100|200|400}, Aperture F/{1.2|2.8|4|5.6}, Shutter Speed {1/1000s|1/500s|1/250s|1/60s}, Using Natural Light

https://perchance.org/photo-thing-for-dude all the jazz is at the bottom.

call them in the description using these, [CAMSETUP] [CONFIG] [EXTREMEWIDEANGLE] [WIDEANGLE] [NORMAL] [MEDIUMTELEPHOTO] [TELEPHOTO] [SUPERTELEPHOTO] [CAM_CANON] [CAM_NIKON] [CAM_FUJI] [CAM_SONY] [CAM_BLACKMAGIC] [CAM_HASSELBLAD]
