thx... hokc.... u just pulled me bak from the gatal-ness of getting a UWA... but i think i need a new tripod though.. the 1 i using don't seems to b stable at all.. blush.gif
*
well, u want UWA, but u need tripod.. go for what u need la, not what u want..

btw, the tripod is not stable or just the ball head?? if it is just the ball head, than go for the ball head only.. get a really good one..

i bought a cap ayam tripod together with ball head.. but then found out the ball head not very stable and hard to control..

so i just replace the ball head because the tripod is quite sturdy..

the only drawback is that it is quite heavy la sweat.gif

e-jump: Something tells me you need to get out of the Damansara/PJ area (which is known for illegal signboards LOL). Housing areas would have less signboards.

linkinstreet: Not like the kit lens is long enough LOL.

he he he there's a lot of causes for that..
u have to set the WL mode in ur body..
u have to popup the built-in flash..
u have to turn ON the flash (F36, F42, F56, F58)
u have to turn the flash facing the body (the sensor)..
etc etc etc..

nah dont have to tell us coz we're not requesting drool.gif we rather guess ha ha ha..

cheers!

wanna ask...
Usually in studio people shoot against say, a white backdrop... usually what +- eV do you guys use? (ie to compensate the bright background)

The results of stitching 3 long exposure shots. After stitching them... I found it ordinary but weird, what do you guys think?

All 3 pics were at ISO100, f/13, 20 seconds.

wha7ever: You could reduce barrel distortion (at the risk of reducing detail in the middle, or expanding detail on the edges.) So it looks more classic rectilinear, or you could go halfway there.

Banzai_san: Needs a longer lens to avoid having to crop (thus getting this image quality.) It does look like they are dancing simultaneously but the background is busy.

OK... noted.
Longer tele/zoom would be nice drool.gif and I guess blurfing the background more would be good... smile.gif
The shot was taken from across the field and had to crop to about maybe about 20 or 30% of the original size.
Longer tele/zoom need to be in my wish list smile.gif

Thanks for the comment albnok
