Yeah, the show started around 7.45 i think coz a buddy who was there earlier said they were making some introductions or lucky draw kind of thing.....didnt get any good shots though.....kinda packed and i didn't get a good spot.....most of the shots were of side or back profile

Haha, wasted lah....by the time i reached, the L part jam packed with people....my spot was on the left side of the judges near the speaker.....ear still ringing

Haha, tomoro only post....but really no good pictures....no sharp ones and hard to get a clean shot coz of the heads around

Hi fellas.....some noob pics from the event....first time shooting at this kind of events....would appreciate if you can show some pointers and where needs correction yeah, thanks! Pics are not sharp enough...so please bear with me

Starting off with the funny judge

The girls....

Thanks, was using 55-200mm for these shots

Digicolor model search at KLPF yesterday

Few more shots.....

Yeah, my hand shake a lot......plus zoomed in handshake even more obvious! Yup, u are correct....don't have external flash and pop-up flash kinda useless coz of the range so didn't use it at all......thanks for the guidance!

Got VR ah, but most probably blur coz my hand shake too much til even VR can't compensate for it! I think also coz of the slow shutter speed (1/60-1/80) even at iso 1000 and they're moving around.....need more practice at these kind of events

^Can la, just take a few shots at different exposures and merge them....can manually adjust the exp but the risk is that you'll move the camera when u manually change the exp so the HDRed pic will need to auto align it back....

Or, u can take RAW pics and use PP to make different exposure pics and merge them back

lol, matter of preference i guess.....as long as it gets the job done, little finger also can lah....

Lol, he did say iso 800 is better than d5000, not better than iso 200

Die lo if the ISO control is so bad......or maybe got batch problem again like the d5k issue last time?

^ normally for landscapes, i use the wider end of the lens 18mm or so......but 70mm is too narrow for my liking haha

Reverse macro can't control aperture, and image not as sharp but acceptable to me lah since i no $ buy macro lens

Some old photos for handheld macros, not sharp but acceptable to me lah at least....lol




55-200 reverse macro is ok for me
