touch ups and red eye removal, where got time to do, they need to churn out the photos within 2-3 hours for THOUSANDS of graduates. touch up, i cant say anything la, but red eye, those can be avoided with properly placed lights

They only print it after 1 month plus. Then either courier it/self collect

Cassplayer, pp la if u say the hardcopy is that bad. I pp my own convo studio pics.. Hehe


Added on July 28, 2010, 3:56 pmi specifically asked for the RAW file when i went asked fo quotation for studio pics. If they dont give, i'll straight away walk out. Some studios dont want give the softcopy one, or they charge crazy expensive for it. Mine, softcopy, pay extra RM15 only. All RAW files complete in CD.

I PP'ed my family portrait in the soft copy. Hard copy they PP already, but soft copy remain original. So much to do sweat.gif

EXIF remains intact as bro lwliam said, unless the person is smart enough to strip the EXIF off before handing out the final batch of photos.

16mm = wider

18-55mm = can zoom.

The more the mm, the further the zoom.

Even when I got the 50mm 1.4, I shot at F4, F5.6 & F7.1 most of the time biggrin.gif

Need to be sharp when shooting artistes, I only used 1.4 if I confirm he's not moving for a short time/when his background has nice lights/bokeh-able things laugh.gif

its the fact that you know that you HAVE a f/1.4 at the scroll of a dial that is poisoning, doesnt matter if u even use it or not. but to justify the fact that the Zeiss costs 2 of my A700 with grip, compared to a (nearly) pocketable lens with the sacrifice of a couple of stops at a tiny fraction of the cost, now THAT's alluring.. i even have to think again whether to get the sp90 or not, coz the SP would have a longer focus throw and bigger size - then again, the sp90 is undoubtedly sharp and is a 1:1 magnification...


Added on July 28, 2010, 10:04 pm

but isnt that a contradiction? you're supposed to use a bigger aperture to so that you can get a faster shutter speed to freeze the movement. if i have a 1.4, i'd use 1.8/2.0 range all the time... now with my 1.7, i need to use 2.8 range to avoid softness
*
But in dark conditions, usually my flash is on. Shot using 1.4 in The Opera

But when I set 1.4, I just use pop up flash, much nicer after some R&D biggrin.gif

When I shoot 4/5.6/7.1, it's either bright during the press conference, or when he's a distance away/on the stage dancing fast moves, I use my flashgun to keep the image sharp while properly exposed. biggrin.gif


Editted my sentence, so it's not so confusing laugh.gif

other than no liveview..basically i have totally no complain at all..

also take note its a lil bit heavy..for me its okay..but not everyone like to carry it whole day tho....everytime i pass my camera to my friend..the first thing is always "wtf! y so heavy! "
*
Weight shouldn't be a problem, but why is it heavier ah? Different body build? Magnesium? Or it's bigger than normal SLR's?
