Hahaha, I saw all the comments, so it's ok man. I didn't stay long in the movie carnival, maybe that's why I missed out some zombies and cosplay shots. Your zombie pix are cool, man!

The 30D is, eh... temporary borrowed from Canon. Usually I take with IXUS, or some other old DSLR. Plan to get one myself soon.

Try Level or Curve? Brightness and Contrast also can.

Here's an example I did with your pix.

PSed shot:


Keep trying~!

It's nothing, really. You can do it too.

Yeah, those are JPEG's limitation, or their artifact? Hahaha... That's where RAW comes in handy.

Yeah, it's the same guy. I always try to use my nick for forums, unless the name had been taken. Hmm, didn't know my ever-changing avatar habit has been recognized by the member there...

Hijacked...

Last time used the 30D for a outdoor studio shoot. Managed to get some nice pix for collection. Here's one...



She is young, and definitely looks sweet to me.

Hahaha, thanks for the bump.

Too bad the weather wasn't the best for taking pix, eh?? Saw lotsa underexposed shots there... Next time pray for good weathers!

Next week is KLIMS already... anyone going??

Hahaha... Do remember that one is a car show.

Good. We have one more gallery to view later.

Maybe can try exposure compensation next time?? Or shoot in RAW, adjust later. Hehe...

Ah, I'm not sure whether I can get the pass anot. And not sure when will I be free for this show.

Gotcha!!

That's hint, dude. That's a hint.

Yeah, everybody get a DSLR and shoot shoot shoot.

Hahah, actually those are test units. I'm just lucky enough to bring the camera out for some test shoots. Hopefully can borrow again for the motorshow.

Vyruz you're going this Sat?? Yeah, like ShinChan said, wait for your first batch of pix! Cars and girls!

Har??? Where got?? But thinking on getting one... or maybe wait for 40D?

You got many things to get already.

Can find lotsa comparison between these 2 cam online, but the best is still testing them with your own hands. Let the hands tell you the answer.

Hahah, no need to feel shy, man. Just be polite and smile abit.

Fuiyo, someone is expert already.

Sounds like a good plan, eh?? Twincam... reminds me of AE86, dunno why. Actually it is possible to shoot with both handed camera. That's where the AF comes in handy.

Heh, I hope I can get the 30D or D200 to shoot again, cause I know my little IXUS won't last me an hour inside there. Hey, D70 is good enough lah. Just remember to bring a flash unit.

"PS King"? Since when I got such nick?? I am getting more nick day by day now...

Hahah, just ask the girls (cars no need to ask, right? ) politely and kindly show them the pix if they wanna see. That's the tricky part! If you get bad pix, just take again before showing!

I kinda remember the lighting in PWTC isn't the best you could ask for, especially non-flash with high ISO... Try the build in flash, maybe?? Or maybe shoot with RAW for compensation later.
Hahaha, only photoshop then can show them?? That's a good tactic, eh?
The "PS King" from VF?? Hahaha... I thought I'm more famous with the ever-changing avatar and signbar over there??

Use the camera in your avatar lah.

You mean this one??



PS-ed my head to avoid unnecessary trouble.

To protect my ID.

Hahaha... But so far don't have time to go.

Thanks for the hijack.

Yo Lurker taiko, don't put pressure on me. Me noob only nia. And what about I ask you where's your pix??

Today (Sunday) was my first visit to KLIMS, with dude DreamChaser. Also met Lurker and other photog along the way. Quite fun to shoot with them, though I gotta admit it's damn tired to walk from Hall 1 to Hall 5, in 6 freaking long hours...

Brought my IXUS 40 and E-1 to visit the motorshow, but too bad, one of them out of battery, the other one out of memory card. Anyway, still manage to get some shots to share with you guys. As usual, don't expect model shots from me lah. I am more into shooting environment.


Hall 2 overview.


Crash test?


Bling bling rims~

Thanks guys.

LOL...

What the...

Hahah... I wasn't quite satisfy with the pix I got though. Lets blame the camera and lens and lighting inside.

The models sure friendly one, if you know their daily pay...

Very true, man... But they have to suffer the smiling, standing, posing, idling for that pay. Hahaha, hope they won't get any kind of phobia later.

If you didn't bring in a flash unit, you will be using high ISO with slow shutter. That's my case. I brought a f3.5 14-45mm () with non flash DSLR. Have to push the ISO to 400 & 800 in order to get a "ok" shot. So, do bring in flash if possible, even built in flash will help.

And if the models gave them their email for pix, just send only, regardless of the pix quality (no need to send full size lah). If they really wanna compare the quality, I bet ours won't be in the top 10 list. A promise is a promise, just fulfill it. No one guarantee them quality pix, right?

Hahaha, yeah that's right. Very crowded place. Didn't get a clear shot of any car inside, sure got people at the front or at the back. Anyway, I brought the wrong lens (f3.5), cause no choice. Pushed too much on ISO produces lotsa noise. No flash. Wasn't in good health also lah... Hahaha...

Yo man, sorry my office line abit cacat, always dc one.

D70 has a built-in flash, right? Use it. If the flash is too hard, use some tissue to soften the flash. It's better than shoot with high ISO (noise) and slow shutter. I tried RAW, didn't help much either. Push up too much on exposure will only bring out the noise.

For your question, I can say "yes". VR (or Canon's IS) does help to reduce shaky shots especially under low light condition. Of course, not much like 1/2 or 1 second or above. In the end, we are still human who need to breath. But I can say it does help alot.
