Re: Using flash outdoors at night
Hey Cason, This is about as tough a lighting conditions as it gets. First thing you want to do is reference an almanac and weather station. See if the moon will be out and if it's a clear night. These two things can drastically change how you decide to set yourself up. I've shot a very low light outdoor club event that was… -
Re: A good starter studio lighting kit?
You can't go wrong with Alien Bees Alien Bee units are great - especially for the price and you cannot go far wrong selecting a set. SUNPAK, best known for their great 383 and 120J units has also been producing studio strobes for years. I use a MS4000 (400 WS) unit with a 36"x48" Chimera Softbox. This is a large and heavy… -
Re: Your "bad" weather plan?
I had an unforseen experience last summer. -the night before the "big day" playing goony golf. go carts...actually captured in a light drizzle...I learned that Phoxles CTO flash gel wasn't waterproof! I live a few hundred miles from any beach and had never shot a beach wedding, but was hired to travel to Gulf Shores,… -
Re: Gallery titles suddenly huge!
I wonder one about one thing that could add an immense value to these new features. I generally like the new gallery cover and as a matter of fact if the collection galleries in general would work slightly differently I would have switched to them from the smug mug galleries that I am using now, just because I like the new… -
Re: Opinion on mirrorless cameras
I like m4/3s cameras, but I have not disposed of my Canon system, and will not. I find uses for both systems, especially with over seas air travel concerns. I purchased a Panasonic GF-1 when it was introduced several years ago, as I was interested in its smaller form factor. Below ISO 500, It took fine pictures, but was… -
Re: Styx in concert
Thank you. I'm pleased with the set, but personally think in retrospect the reddish light tones on #3 and coldish tone on #5 could be fixed. But that's pretty much what it looked like so I left it. Full gallery HERE and there's two or three shots that I'd trash in a heartbeat but they are of the owners. The company my wife… -
Re: Saturday Market
Good morning Sam. My private shoot prices have remained the same and are listed on my Services page. I have priced them to what I think I can get out of people in this area who are serious about getting a photo shoot out of me. I have had folks walk away due to the price - no budging here on that. I price a family/personal… -
Re: Moving to mirrorless?
For m43, there is the 40-150mm f/2.8 +1.4x extender shipping now, I'd like to try it. And in 2015 the 300mm f/4 prime coming. Here is a center crop with the old Zuiko 200mm f/4 on the E-m5. The hummingbirds hover long enough that I can manually focus on them with the focus assist zoom engaged, then shoot a burst as I roll… -
Re: November Cruise to Bermuda
After that we went through Black Watch Pass out to St. George. I asked Lewis where Durnford House was, and he didn't know, so he called the Historical Society, and she told him. It is a private house with one memorial although the Historical Society lady didn't know if anyone was actually buried there. But I got a GPS… -
Re: Lens suggestions for Canon t3i
Most of the stuff you said is dead on. The T3i isn't the best body for weddings, sports, or children (compared to a 60D, or even a 50D or 40D). But if you've decided on a T3i, then that'll work. Definitely get the 50mm. I have one and it's GREAT for portraits. It's about the best value in the Canon lineup (the 200mm f2L…
