Ken Rockwell facts !

Ken Rockwell is the Chuck Norris of photography

Ken Rockwell's camera has similar settings to ours, except his are: P[erfect] Av[Awesome Priority Tv[Totally Awesome Priority] M[ajestic]

Ken Rockwell doesn't color correct. He adjusts your world to match his.

Sure, Ken Rockwell deletes a bad photo or two. Other people call these Pulitzers.

Ken Rockwell doesn't adjust his DOF, he changes space-time.

Circle of confusion? You might be confused. Ken Rockwell never is.

Ken Rockwell doesn't wait for the light when he shoots a landscape - the light waits for him.

Ken Rockwell never flips his camera in portrait position, he flips the earth

Ken Rockwell ordered an L-lens from Nikon, and got one.

Ken Rockwell is the only person to have photographed Jesus; unfortunately he ran out of film and had to use a piece of cloth instead.

When Ken Rockwell brackets a shot, the three versions of the photo win first place in three different categories

Before Nikon or Canon releases a camera they go to Ken and they ask him to test them, the best cameras get a Nikon sticker and the less good get a Canon sticker

Once Ken tested a camera, he said I cant even put Canon on this one,thats how Pentax was born

Rockwellian policy isn't doublethink - Ken doesn't even need to think once

Ken Rockwell doesn't use flash ever since the Nagasaki incident.

Only Ken Rockwell can take pictures of Ken Rockwell; everyone else would just get their film overexposed by the light of his genius

Ken Rockwell wanted something to distract the lesser photographers, and lo, there were ducks.

Ken Rockwell is the only one who can take self-portraits of you

Ken Rockwell's nudes were fully clothed at the time of exposure

Ken Rockwell once designed a zoom lens. You know it as the Hubble SpaceTelescope.

When Ken unpacks his CF card, it already has masterpieces on it.

Rockwell portraits are so lifelike, they have to pay taxes

On Ken Rockwell's desktop, the Trash Icon is really a link to National Geographic Magazine

Ken Rockwell spells point-and-shoot "h-a-s-s-e-l-b-l-a-d"

When Ken Rockwell went digital, National Geographic nearly went out of business because he was no longer phyically discarding photos

For every 10 shots that Ken Rockwell takes, 11 are keepers.

Ken Rockwell's digital files consist of 0's, 1's AND 2's.

Ken Rockwell never focus, everything moves into his DoF

Ken Rockwell's shots are so perfect, Adobe redesigned photoshop for him: all it consists of is a close button.

The term tripod was coined after his silhouette

Ken Rockwell never produces awful work, only work too advanced for the viewer

A certain braind of hig-end cameras was named after people noticed the quality was a lot "like a" rockwell

Ken Rockwell isn't the Chuck Norris of photography; Chuck Norris is the Ken Rockwell of martial arts.

Ken Rockwell never starts, he continues

Nikon D5100 released

D5100 and D7000 16mp
D400, D4 16 or 18mp?

quite close to mine. D90, 18-70, 50/1.8

on another note, woohoo V8!! and first page

My previous post was guessing 18mp

Cant wait to see what specs the D800 has.

Darn ... my D7000 sucks when recoding a movie

Very nice video of D5100

what is the most important thing to a good movie?
a good storyline.

not the 4K, 1080, 150FPS HD etc etc

Hmm, anyone know how big is the streetwalker harddrive bag compare to streetwalker pro ?

http://dslr.nikon-asia.com/amateur1/

agreed,very nice video.love the external mic though.and the special effect on selective colour is kewl,no nid photoshop to highlight subject
btw,does the external mic just released?

Then my D90 movie should be lousier.

Experimental street videography

Yeah, auto-focus noisy "kacau stim!"
Basically im using manual focus for recording movie, but im noob ... many of movie had taken blur blur blur ....

This post has been edited by gemo: Apr 5 2011, 03:55 PM

Not that bad , except for the random autofocus...

And ello again people

Been a while since i've touched my D90

Added on April 5, 2011, 4:10 pmhuh? d90 got autofocus meh for video ?

This post has been edited by Irbean: Apr 5 2011, 04:10 PM

i guess sold separately and launch together... macam apple iphone 4 la...sold the "bumper " together for that hella expensive price for the rubber .

haha.. owh yah it make sense..btw looks like d5100 focus on movie recording..

someone over at photomalaysia is selling a 85G lens.
for those who are looking for one, faster go there and buy now!
hehee

Link?

rm4k u want? haha go la search there

this

could have found it by yourself rather than wait for me to find it for you i reckon...

normal la.. here.. everything got to spoonfed..

Btw, during the Nikon event, no one went to the other fair beside it? They have a runway show also, here are some of my pics



Anyone else went to shoot there?

Mic launched is good for those who using nikon d7k to record video.



Anyways, KTCY , i got a noob suggestion lar , got so many of us asking about the filter thing , which to choose , which not to choose, why not we list down the information so can let them to choose instead of keep asking what filter is good?example question: Pro1d or hoya hd ? which one better? can anyone tell me?
My noob suggestion, can ignore one.

Haha , too long haven't touched my D90 , forgot features of my camera edi
Testing with D7K before , thats why this happen ma

Fair price.
3months old lens cheaper by RM 450

I don't really go into that. Maybe can ask someone else list down so I can update on first page

I dont know lar , i think nikon did a good job , if the video can compete with canon 5dmark and so on , guess no ppl will use 2 diff brand body d.

4k is so tempting, the price is so close to a new 85mm f/1.4D...I think?

Alright.

Added on April 5, 2011, 5:11 pmD5100 got special effect on video , while D7000 dont have right ?

---

Added on April 5, 2011, 5:14 pmI guess D90 replacement will coming soon? Since it is not discontinued yet. Or D7k edi replace D90 d.

D400 , D800 , D4 cant wait to see ><"

This post has been edited by SSY22: Apr 5 2011, 05:14 PM

D7000 count as replacement for D90 already la..

Ohh okay =D thanks for telling

Yeah, now the numbering is all in order. D3100 and D5100 for entry, D7000 in between entry and semi pro, D300 and D700 for semi pro and D3 for pro.

eh the replacement for d300s might be changed to D9000

o_O why is that? Doesn't sound too right -.- The 3 digit seems good for the semi pro series.

hahaa
i agree with you but well, you never know.
d400 then d800. numbers are running out faster this way.

Eyeing this year photokina.

What make you think that? Share with us

hahaa i am just saying only. i didnt get any inside news on this. lol

photokina is 2 years once by the way. unless they have decided to change it

SSY22 , D7000 would be a great choice , if u have DX lens now. If not , go straight for the D700 or wait for the D800. That time will have alot of ppl selling off their D700

i dont have any dx lens(havent jump ship yet) but d700 very exp leh...

Okay thanks , i tot is once a year , mean next year only got


.

Im still thinking which to get

I only left 35mm and sb-700 in my dry box lol.

Added on April 5, 2011, 5:46 pm@streetboy , i dont know , i not sure whether wan get d90 or not.

More interested in d700 now.

This post has been edited by SSY22: Apr 5 2011, 05:46 PM

yeah d700 is expensive. what i did last time was i sold my d90 and 18-200 to exchange for d700. luckily i still had my 35-70mm f2.8 lens to use back then. bought for very cheap and when i sold if off, i even made a few hundred, to help compensate for the other purchases. i did that for my 80-200mm as well. so i'm quite lucky in that aspect.

hoho.. v8..

but think of it as used, and u can get a 1.4D for rm3k

I guess I'll get a wide zoom and stick wif d90 ba,den wait for d800.

this oso wanna inform to the world?

Luckily i managed to grab Crumpler Singapore Sling from Amazon nearly 21 pound. Now the price increased nearly to 40 pound.

21 pound is reasonable! I want one so badly

Currently it's out of stock at the store which I found it cheap. Wish they can restock fast and I can grab more!

D5100 has built in motor?

No has.

?? ??

dont have i think what he's tryin to say

Oh, understood, y de hell no built in motor..isk2

Sorry. I meant don't have

Probably because it's still an entry level body while new lenses are mostly AF-S?

if have then the price wont be ard 2.7k already..

If I was there I would go for this one instead of Nikon's! .

the amway one . many leng lui ooo.cz it is skin care one

i wish got lingerie event show cast

I saw the photos from Turbelence, the stage setup looks better! My friend was the event organizer, he told me about it but too bad I was not at the event

it is big . the stage ..

and the venue , it got 2 side . while nikon fair only one side.

haha

fuh. love this shot!

Yup, so many leng luis

The stage is just like those professional fashion show, really well designed. First time see this kind of runway
First time I was there kneeing at the front, with so many photographers

Thanks!

at 1st i tot those was nikon event too..but then after come out from nikon, plan to go there but then notice it was some kind of skin care thing..st8 lost interest..never know there are fashion show inside

I went inside anyway cause still got a lot of time and notice the runway show. It's more of a show to present their cosmetics products than fashion (what they wear)

Artistry event ?

new user here..please teach teach ya....thanks

Yup!

Wahh V8 already, I thought V3 only

Btw anyone using Yongnua flash? Want to know whether it can be triggered wirelessly or not. The shop told me to get Nissin Di466, but it's RM350 each

Another one!


DSC_6622 by terbulance129, on Flickr

I really like her

Few friends ask me to do a short video how does the D3s sound when firing at 11FPS. So I shall share with you guys.

http://vimeo.com/21975441

So fast

It sounds like when you play a game and it hangs, the sound just hangs there and keep repeating itself

like machine gun ?

Burst rate.....

Haha, i went in for a bit. Got dragged in by 1 of my friend. She's a dealer there so ask me to try out some stuffs....my hand got licin when i came out.

My first photoshoot of 2011... lol still posting pics from this album ._.

I also have one to share , but only 8fps on D700
