I really like this shot.... somehow I can never get a carousel shot to look right and yours did.

Thanks. I took 2 shots of it and this one succeeded. Made the shot with a short pan with speed matching the carousel.


Another small contribution.

Thanks for sharing.. Hmmm.. never occured to me to do a short pan.. always just drag shutter. Now I need to find a carousel to try that

no street, but beach, can or not?

Can... but so far away ker?

I think it'll be clearer and more interesting if you go near either the sunbather or the stroller with umbrella.

Aiks... do not take pictures but u still take

if i crop? would it make any difference?
i also paiseh go too near

No choice. Cause it look interesting!

Can. de point is u just draw out the story u wanna tell...that's all...
I also did that quite often as certain ppl feel uneasy in front of camera..haha..

field of view will be different when you crop lo. Bright sunny day wat... what u scare... f8 and be there lo.

... and you got apply stealth tape or not?

Last weekend I kena ambushed by a malay guy (in Taipei ) shooting a stealth tape 5D2 + 24-105mm in my face. It feels so much less threatening

I'm curious .. what is he doing anyway?

Spam one here... no story wan.. I like his enthusiasm.

wanna ask, what camera settings you all used why doing street photograph?

i'm a newbie in photography, my gear is only D5100 + 35mm 1.8g, did you all use full auto or other settings?

if manual i feel like quite slow and sometime will missed some candid moment

Use aperture or shutter speed priority mode while doing fast pace moment. Manual is good if you already sure what you want to capture that day

i think i was on F16 tat time, i cant really remember, cos the sun is keeps getting covered by clouds

havent stealth it though, 5D2 how to stealth? so chat big

Ya... I know la... sound tak logic but it does feel less threatening when taped. Perhaps cos it looked more ghetto.


Depending on camera... aperture priority on dlsr... program mode on XZ-1 and iauto on my cybershot.

Speaking of which.. trying out the cybershot last night during tar pau dinner.

wah sniper on the roof "VIP" wht is your name at FB

ic...thanks for the advice, maybe is time for me to read the manual about P, shutter and aperture priority mode

been using manual mode since i got the camera

what you mean by tape camera? wrap it with tape? but still the same thing what, people still will know you are carry a DSLR or a weird DSLR

Not really into fesbook

I tried to google for a pic but its so stealthy that even google dun have pic.

It's just taping the camera logos and what not with matt black tape (stealth tape) for reduce visibility especially when the shooter is also wearing ninja black. Can also serve as rudimentary protection against bumps and scratches lo.

most i seen taped are the laikas

my friend used to do that on his D700.

can prevent thief as well?

kinda worry about the safety of malaysia this days
