Umm,... maybe?


QUOTE(celciuz @ May 7 2012, 11:50 PM)
I think the panning is quite normal, the one he played with the zoom ring I think different from the rest... here's what I think is good panning, shot by a friend of mine. He's a regular media pass holder at drift events under drift.com.my.

recently saw a wedding job that had an interesting side note, that the photographer MUST Shoot with lenses with smaller aperture number than f2.0 guess the couple likes super bokehness

once it's smaller than f/2.0, means zooms are totally out of the case.. seems like it's going to be a challenging wedding job? haha

Yea... I only got 50 f/1.4 so cannot take d job lol

QUOTE(amduser @ May 14 2012, 09:02 AM)
F2.8 also can make nice bokeh what

Fully agreed. esp at 200mm

QUOTE(Everdying @ May 14 2012, 10:07 AM)
i think they just want to make sure the photog isnt one of those cheapskates who only own a kit lens tongue.gif

maybe.. but I thought the general consensus is its the photographer.. not the gear? XD

lens hood wont help much as its hitting straight on.
i've seen those kind of reflections before even when using a hoya HMC filter.
just draw a line diagonally, the reflection is a mirror image of whats on the opposite side of it.
best is to just remove the filter.
*
rclxms.gif good observation . My 50mm is filterless, the filter is sitting in my dry box actually. I wonder if this is issue of larger aperture? Hmm never tried stepping it down..

I think it's the lens is at wide open.. so only the selected item would be in focus, while the rest will be slightly OOF

by the way is that sai86 ask be before for the 35mm worth to buy?
i know a lot people ask me 35mm worth to buy or not and i straight direct them to forum and my 35mm fb album and others using 35mm  icon_rolleyes.gif

Im not liking the B+W filters. so far I get flares and strange color cast.. (UV and another CPL ). Maybe I got fakes... so now all Im using are HOYAs... or maybe i duno how to operate them properly within specs

my sifu taught me not to use filters at all no matter how good it is, in studio settings cos all the lights there will mess up the images tongue.gif

Oh. ok. hehe then no need to try dy smile.gif

How i wish i can get rid of the paranoia in me.. i kept thinking "what if shit happens" and i kept using filters.. only when i am taking some shots with weird lightings, or long exposure, or when sharpness is critical, i'll remove the filter.. else for day-to-day usage, i keep the filter on.. just in case.. hahahaha

yea.. most common is finger prints! I always accidentally touch my UV filter! blink.gif
