    Canadian men are terrible at taking pictures of their dicks

    It really is rude to compose shots so poorly.

    It’s like they’ve never bothered to learn to crank that F-stop while increasing the exposure to get that shallow depth of field. It gives an illusion of depth.

    I like to use a 60mm prime lens on an MFT to give it a crop-factor equivalent of 120mm.

    And go with a snooted strobe to get that shadow detail. Ring flashes are lazy and have no character.

      See, I get you’re joking, but I’m not clear if it’s because you’re a hobbyist who saw an opportunity to info dump a bit for hyperbole, or if you’re using that hyperbole to suggest that it is an unrealistic expectation for dick pics to look sexy in any way possible (rather than just a dimly lit, unclear shot of someone’s unmaintained and unwashed patchy pubes and greasy dick)

        The real joke for the shutterbugs was the 60mm lens on the micro four-thirds camera.

        It’s for macro photography. Sample (safe) picture from the lens using the end of a ballpoint pen:
