eddy, its a luck thing.

sometime, iq can be better, sometimes, it get worst....

one thing for sure, thing get loose... u will feel ur lens is like used for 10 years... loosen up already .... what i dont like most is the focus ring becomes really loose (no way to tighten i think) and some will goes 'GGrrrgggrrr' rough feeling on the gearing... as if the gear is not tightly fitted in place... send back few times, they manage to virgin the zoom, but the focus ring still cacat (but the issue was, my cz 1680 clutch or something jammed the focus ring in the first place laaaa... could be after effect)

for the zoom, they can tighten it... if u recieve back a loose zoom ring (u get zoom creeping)... just sent it right back... (if u paid for the service charge, they cover 3 month service warranty.)

yakah... my friend using 550D said my A550 picture color and noise better then his 550D leh, i dunno wor... i tot my A300 color and iso better. (more noise is better rite?)

hahaha joke only la... normal la.. everytime i use my A550, others will come and compare and never return... my picture too poison already. but if i were to use other system (i do use other system) they come compare again, also will feel whatever i use, also good result. let the GEAR-FAN-Boy do their thing, they will never be a proper photographer.

mana zeiss?

why i choose sony... coz sony sponsor me wor... (kidding)

gouki car can overtake any Ferrari anytime eh.... i sit before, really fast worrr vroommmm

gel? wat gel? hair gel?

3x 2 meter stand (compact to put into a custom made bag, together with all the umbrella, not as if i bring all the umbrella thou), each stand with braket.

9 umbrella, got 2x gold, 1 silver, 3x 60cm 2in1, 3x 40cm 2in1(shoot through or bounce), smaller one for smaller light control.

adapter 7 (normal hot shoe to sony hot shoe, modified to support WL) got 2 braket uses 2 adapter, so i can terbalik the flash instantly instead of removing the umbrella/take out adpater.

not to mention backdrop stand, clothes (lots lots lots of them)

result?


shooting location setup?



mastering: credits to albnok... he gave (or sold) me one piece when i TT with him in KL last year, then he show me where to get those gels films.... so i brough some back and improvise his design (look nicer and fit nicely) then this year when i drop by KL, i buy like 7-8 type of color, coz i bored with plain white WL flash, now wan play next level, colored flash

lastolite are high end brand, good quality control of material... but u can look around for cheaper china made and use as much before u move on trying other products

yup, i know, i commented the photo in fb~ love how u smartly use another flash for the lady behind from the right side

still studying what to shoot, study light effect, doing test cheat sheet etc... hahaha not easy to play with many color, maybe just start with 1 color, red first haha

COLOR GEL< DIGICOLOR at jln ipoh Mutiara Complex.

it does work. tested it. and yes it has. (on my A300 and A550) not sure other body

gjtan: first flash, go F58. trust me. or trust everyone here~

albnok: i brought A4 size, if i made 2 out, left one big piece there, might as well make them all out... lol. i keep losing orange gel all the time, misplace it during wedding job, or someone curi from me during TT(kidding)... normal lor... lmao. the cost of making this is high, i used uhu glue to strengthen them onto a stripe of black 60gsm paper, then use cloth tape to tape the corner (prevent paper from tearing) and the rubbery feel of the tape will grip onto the flash, wont fall off.

so bored, shooting this right now (still on session)

No PP. jpeg out from camera, photoshop frame and signature only.
