mainly emphasis the model and the mood ... for gun will need to add up material on the part later

however I think is my mistake that not to take for another brighter shots on the gun in the same post

I have another shots which hand-held the pistol by 2 hand like this one

but I like the previous post I take

It might be the pellix camera which doesn't have OVF (instead you get EVF) but sounds like 2 times faster focusing speed and up to 10 fps (dunno is AF or shutter priority only)

cjlai, yea... test sheet wise, the NEX beat the crap out of the G2...

omg.. iso 2000!!!

why the expression? so is it good or bad?

personally.. like this but actually quite envy the skill how you manage to shot with such light effect??


coz e-a mount no AF ma.. so works as MF lens lo

still quite acceptable IMO.

aikz..my dear 300.. can't u do anything better then iso 800?

my guesstimate

keylight: 90 degrees camera right. straight on medium softbox diffused from head level

gold reflected/diffused fill light on camera left

WTH!!!!! Panny G2 won coz of "thoughtful approach to the body design and controls"
The body design n controls is just like SLR, might as well buy an SLR. N which enthusiast buys a camera based on body design n controls? Surely IQ is the most important no?

of course la can work...

the adapter for A-mount to E-mount only can MF right?
so, a gar-stripped lens memang only can MF.. so same thing.

Kul | Mo0: Congratulations! The classic Minolta cases were lovely.

endau02: "cheapest" and "Leica" is an ironic statement. You can, however, pick up an Olympus Zuiko 50mm F1.8 for RM250 or so, and get the adapter for OM Zuiko to E-mount. I don't know how much it is yet as prices have yet to stabilize.

jumajuma: Sony sounds like your best bet - other camera repair shops are not able to source all parts from Sony.

wingster: There are 3 cases:

1) wireless flash signal emitted from your Alpha
2) pre-flash TTL from your F58 on your Alpha
3) manual power flash from your F58 on your Alpha

Some slave flashes are able to skip being triggered by the pre-flash. So if your F58 was in TTL, it could trigger.

However, some slave flashes do not know how to recognize a pre-flash and skip it... so you have to change your F58 to manual power.

Cool lighting by the way, though I'd add a faint light on the backdrop, just to define his jacket, kinda like in #3.

lwliam: You nailed it in #2!
