Click here to jump to it! >>>[Sony Alpha F.A.Q<<< courtesy of Ahmike Common Kelvin White Balance Settings: » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « 2500K - very strong orange tungsten light 2800K - strong orange tungsten light 3200K - yellowish tungsten light 4500K M6 - flourescent light (most flourescent tubes are green even though our eyes don't see it) 5500K - flash 6500K - daylight (or daylight-balanced flourescent light) 9900K - strong blue stage lighting or evening light Xenon lighting is rare but that should be between 7000-9000K. Whenever you enter a new situation that has different WB, just set your Kelvin WB again and test with one shot. You should be able to do this with practice. With the Sony A300/A350/A450/A500/A550/A560/A580/A33/A35/A37/A55/A57/A65/A77/NEX-3/NEX-C3/NEX-F3/NEX-5/NEX-5N/NEX-7, you can use Live View and see the effect of changing Kelvin WB... live! M = Magenta G = Green 2500K = Blue 9900K = Amber Take a picture. Supposing the picture is very Green, you need to add the opposite which is Magenta. If the picture is too Blue you need to go closer to Amber. So if the picture is very blue-green-ish, you will need to go closer to 9900K M9. Wireless Flash Compatibility List: » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « Definition of: Trigger off-camera: To send an encoded pulse of light via a mounted flash or pop-up flash, to an off-camera flash that understands this signal.

use any of these methods, or a combination of them: - use a darker aperture (e.g. F11) - use a lower ISO (e.g. ISO100) - use a shutter speed faster than your flash sync speed so that High Speed Sync is activated (e.g. 1/320th of a second) - use a piece of exposed, developed negative film in front of your pop-up flash Sony Alpha Lens Line-up: HERE courtesy of vcxv Below are the official additional

Alpha Male Elite 4,956 posts Joined: Jan 2003 From: KL	How quiet is the Sony 18-135mm F3.5-5.6 DT SAM? Here's a quick test to see how quiet focusing is, in a moderately quiet camera shop. Note that sound is amplified due to the A65 auto-gaining in quiet situations. Direct Manual Focus was also used - the focus ring was intentionally turned to see if it would be audible. hQJOxHCyYCA Pretty quiet, I'd say! You could only hear it if you put it to your ear and focused it. The full-time Direct Manual Focus is quite like SSM lenses - turn it without spoiling the lens! You know where to find it - an important character is spotted in the starting of the video. This post has been edited by albnok: Jul 17 2012, 10:14 AM

Still very much within my target range... anyway, i will see if i can bring along my Voigtlander 40mm F1.4.

The price I heard for the 18-135mm by itself was lower than that. But we'll see when it is officially in stock as a stand-alone item. kysham: Like you wouldn't lah. soket: I haven't recategorized the F42 as a second-hand item, but do we see more F42 boxes around, or second-hand F42s? If there are still new F42s, how much are they?

If like me, I know I want it, so I will eventually buy it. Just.... not now. Works better.

I learn from many source in 1 time... basically I introduce myself with this line. I in photography more than 3 years since I 1st brought my DSLR which I still using it right now. I use Sony Alpha as my excellent tool as photograph something day to day basics.. I shoots landscape which influent by "HDR Guy" Trey Ratcliff and Karl Taylor and currently I inspired by "NASA Guy" Gary Friedman,"Strobist Guy"David Hobby ,"OneLight" Zack Arias. Recently I found out Strobing the flash is kindda interesting because you can take of your flash and play around and make things more challenge. They are great guy too share with. About more advance stobist system by alpha system... is by Garry Friendman. Other sources, depends what kind of photography you like.

The longer you look at the picture, the nicer it looks, just like girls with true beauty... hehehehe To be honest, feels like grabbing your picture and put it on my desktop...haha... My taste will give you a vote bro... Zstan taste maybe abit different, and shoot a different style?

I feel rather boring and use DOF focus on the flower's arts of beauty with nice bokeh. things doe't happen to be perfect when I snap it without diffuse flash... So, I hand held with Flash Cable(wired) bouncing the flash towards the floor with HSS sony alpha system. therefore, need so good opinion about it. Do you have some better opinion on this? well if this your style then i have no comments lar. to me its just a snapshot of a flower. _______________________________________________________________________________ Sunset series 2!

Your friendly neighborhood photographer Elite 6,075 posts Joined: Jan 2006 From: 3.1553587,101.7135668	Moonwalk, welcome to alpha thread ^^ Nice pics u hv there. Even greater list of masters that you're 'training' under. Mind if i give my 2 cents? Im in no way near 1% of those masters though. But what I see is that you need more effort though if you are to use your pic to deliver a msg that you're trying to convey. Many of the shots do look like snapshots to me. What made them seems nice is merely your 'instagram-ish' editing style. Then again, 2 years is quite short a time in a photography point of view. Most important is that along the road, you learn to appreciate what's a good shot and what's not, not only in others' work, but also your own. Good job though with your enthusiasm with this art. Keep it up. We've got many experienced users here to guide should you hv any questions you hv to ask. Share more pics as well. This post has been edited by lwliam: Jul 22 2012, 04:06 AM

Just sales his product much mainly. I meet up too many Nikon and Canon friend. I have fear they not sincere to tell my weakness in my picture. When I ask,what is the problem. They not really have idea on it. I don't lable as FB "like" person. I want something is about photograph something. Even,500px and flicker... all is praising not bad comment. I'm try too convey my picture is to deliever what I know, I also hope sifu here ...use what I know to screw me up.. About snapshot case, I can't say is snap shoots.. My focus is in teaching my friend who still newbie in travelling photography with fast and clean. About instagram-ish' editing style. I being convince by various source, "WHY you should post-processing" by Simmon Chong,WPPM Pro. Melacca Photographer. Here is some before post-processing picture. #1 #2 #3 #4 #5 Have some comment!!

I gave my opinion and it's up to you whether to accept it or not. Never in any of my comments above mentioned that your photos are bad or distasteful, I could, but I didn't. See the difference in that? It's absolutely up to you what you want to snap, but this is a public space and once it's up here, everything is subjected to a fair share of criticism and praise - which in this case, if you read my words above properly, it's more of the latter. Do point out to me where did I condemned your work and I can either defend myself, or if I find myself guilty as charged, I'd gladly apologize. Stop being a stuck up kid and open up your mind to what others have to say for a change. Take fansoption here for an example, I was already in this forum when he first started sharing photos here in Alpha Thread. And I dare say, he's went through a metamorphosistical change in his works through this entire time. He's now got one of the best works shared here in this forum amongst others. I bet many here would agree with me on this sentiment. This post has been edited by lwliam: Jul 22 2012, 11:09 PM

Photo Fanatics Senior Member 3,461 posts Joined: Feb 2007 From: Kota Kinabalu, Sabah	Moonwalk, KEEP SHOOTING & POSTING & SHARING (yes, I'm shouting). it's great that you are learning from the great talents in the photography industry, but do take it in moderation. The most important part in a photography is ENJOYING THE SHOOT! I've always emphasized this at the beginning, middle and the end of the photography workshops which I conduct for Sony Malaysia. I've been taking photos for more than 15 years now (on & off) but I had never considered myself a pro by any stretch of my imagination. But I had been enjoying it ever since I took my first photo with my first film slr, the Canon AV-1. I dare not say I'm a master but I would like to give some general comments regarding the photos you've shared in this forum thus far. While I truly understand your objective of keeping simplicity in mind, but I think you have yet to achieve your objective with most of your shots. There are simply too many conflicting elements in your photos to suggest you are going with the simplicity concept. From the way you present your photos & yourself, I would be assuming you should be technically well versed with the sony alpha system, as well as with the technicality of taking a photo, and I think that's a great start. Try to conceptualize a photo objectively before shooting. That might help. In the film era, every time we press the shutter, it is money. So we had to think about the shot before we press the shutter. That may help you in simplifying the contents & composition. I feel sorry for you that you got a shock from comments from some members in this forum. But, this being a community based forum, I guess you got a crashed course in social networking.... you will meet people from all walks of life & all type of behaviour in here. That's part of the charm of an online community. Hope you can learn to accept that. Hope you are not going to leave this thread simply because of this.

I is purpose out focus it to get the dreamy effect under lightroom 4 postprocesing.. Mind to share about your idea?

SOME people in this thread are abit rude I must admit. Just have to get used to it. But afterall it's just a photography forum right. No point getting angry and sad over comments. Just ignore comments you dont feel comfortable with.

Casual Elite 394 posts Joined: Aug 2011	hello, i am edpaul. i am new here, and this is my 10th post in LYN and first post in this Sony Alpha Thread V58 thread. i just brought a 2nd A300 from ieR 2 month ago. he taught some basic and here are my pictures. please C&C 1. A300+50mm, setting F2, 1/8, iso400 a landscape photography i learn from Master of Landscape, ieR... he also teach me, Photograph Landscape no necessarily requires Ultra Wide Angle so u can capture all Everything (opposite of Plain) and Complicated (opposite of Simple)... you can also use a 50mm short tele prime to capture great plain and simple landscape. and SSS make handheld shot with prime lens possible. 2. A300+50mm, setting F4, 2 sec, iso400 a conceptual fashion commercial art photography i learn from on-shoe Flash Master, ieR... he taught me that, you dont need photoshop or camera feature to capture a double exposure photo like this... you can do it with one shutter release. all you need is to know the timing of your on-shoe flash. 3. A300+50mm, setting F1.4, 1/15, iso1600 a low light photography i learn from Master of Low Light, ieR... he also teach me, photograph noise are very beautiful. 4. A300+50mm, setting F1.4, 1/80, iso100 a illusion photography i learn from the Master of Illusion Photo, ieR... he also teach me, photography are is how you define the impossible... like how i have to split the camera half to allow the fence to go through... 5. A300+50mm, F1.4, 1/60, iso1600 + F58 and F43 a low light+strobist+bokehmon photography i learn from the Master of LowLight, Flash, and Bokehmon ieR!... he also teach me, photography is about balancing Ambient Light with Flash to look as natural as possible... and max out the bokeh effect. and never use a dirty/dusty lens! 6. A300+50mm, F8, 1/320, iso100 a Moon shot photography i learn from the master of Astrology ieR.... he also teach me, moon no necessarily be shot at night... morning also can! 7. A300+50mm, F2, 1/80, iso400 Wedding photography i learn from Retired Wedding Photographer(who no longer shoot wedding) ieR... he teaches me that we dont need photoshop or instagram to create photo like this. you need to know your surrounding. 8. A300+50mm, F4, 1/160, iso100 Conceptual Photography i learn from Master of Conceptual Art, ieR... he taught me that, even conceptual art sometimes requires a little human touch. 9. A300+50mm, F1.4, 1/30, iso1600. Commercial Shot for MNG i tag along Master of Fashion and Commercial Shooter, ieR.... he taught me.... err nothing that day. but i dont mind... at least i get to know this model, she is now Miss FaceShop Korea 2012, and now Representative, Ambassador, and inhouse Model of theFaceShop Korea... w00t! 10. https://fbcdn-sphotos-a.akamaihd.net/hphoto...788590007_o.jpg A300+50mm, F5.6, 1/160, iso100 a Studio style photoshoot i learn from the Studio Master, ieR... he says, if you cant bring the beach to the studio, then u bring the studio to the beach Please C&C my photo... i wan to learn to shoot better like Master ieR! oh wait.... maybe i'll just ask ieR to comment only, u guy dont comment okay? else i will use all his teaching to defend my photo! especially from William, i dont like you, you are very mean and rude!... ok, william, here is a peace offering... » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « http://a6.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/620745_370975156308648_1460649664_o.jpg oh and lastly, this is the photo of me with my buddy Gary... sadly i not sure where i misplace my whole set of photo during zack's birthday party taken with A300+50mm. kinda forgot the setting, since it was taken by a friend with my A300.

We same passion in Studies,Hobbies and Music( He play Xaphoon I play professional Saxaphone) if you dont mind, i have some comments. 1. your first photo, is underexposed, not sure its intentionally, or a mistake. it show neither day or night/dawn, hence it convey a half message, and imcomplete photo. 2. but then, many professional attain ARPS, RPS and/or Saloon certificate by submitting Conceptual Photo for their exam papers. Steve Chong (a local photographer who came out books, Ying Yang, Sigma endorsed photographer) famous landscape photographer (support local photographer please~ ) also uses conceptual photo for his professional cert exam. 3. normally, other photographer will just shoot your 'chinese chest conceptual art photo' (not sure it was conceptual art or u just wanna show 'light painting technique') its badly executed. seriously bad. there are countless mistake could be found (as exam are using deduction system). my comments are, i) try to fix the WB, your cool WB is not really portraying any emotion of 'intelligent in strategy' nor 'war-cry'... it felt sleepy. ii) you messy arrangement (some chess piece facing backwards sidewards etc, ) show weakness, it show a 'messy' management of a 'commander'... come'on even old man in the park arrange their chess piece nicely before play! and commander also can be refer as you, you did not put any effort to create a photo(or winning the war!). iii) light painting (i guess its a torchlight), are messy... here large spot, there small spot, making it, well, maybe, perfectly imperfect... or imperfectly perfect. whichever u prefer. it doesnt create any dramatic feel, as the purpose of 'lighting' in conception art. try putting more thought into a photography before shooting. it is exactly how other photographer like william or kysham will say, its just like a snapshot even my little girl can shoot better. 4) william is a great teacher, because he doesnt beat around the bush to get to the point. he may be harsh, but the harsher, the faster and stronger u grow. you said u dont like people pusing pusing or faking in commets... bear with him. if u meet him in real life, trust me, u cant stop laughing with him from the minute u meet till you say goodbye. 5) u never use Lee, u will Never understand. HDR is ugly to me. it not even 'reality' its a 'digital mumbojumbo crap'. getting the pure 'exposure' from manipulating exposure manually in a single exposure give u true endless satisfaction. and u dont need Lee to get those great photo. Taiwanese, are the PRO with 'black card techniques' with landscape black card cost 20cent only, unlike indonesian where heavily rely on GNDs filters (cokin/lee system), while the orang putih like to use 'digital' HDR(enhance a landscape digitally). but i will agree its personal preference on 'landscape' but digital enhance landscape is always a 'fake/tipu orang' piece of art. 6) i think we have meet before.... maybe not...

Added on July 23, 2012, 1:02 pmahh, your shogi shot are nice... I don't mind helpful and solid with knowledge comment instead of harshness with 3 words "Go and shoots" this is not an ethical photographer maybe for me. How his convince reader in his various blog such as F1.4 and bla bla bla.. I suddenly change my mind. He not a ethical photographer after he say bang the wall... "Angry forum people" why I shall speak talk with them? Show me he is certified awards winner Period. MPA,UK and bla bla bla... He will not be any professional photographer. HONEST About Conceptual photographer.. Honest to tell... there are long road for me. All about is planning... that everyone agree that. The Chinese Chess, I paint with touch lights.. yup is with purpose of light arts... since,my camera don't have multiple exposure. I have to use 1 go... here another version which I ever think like what you think. BAD case.... I really no idea to make it perfects. Period... still mysteries for me. I use LEE,B+W,IR and GND of course I know they are very good. B+W 10 stops will also have colour cast issue.. therefore, I will decision wanting it or not. HDR!!! Never speak with my sifu. KEDA.Z he very anti people say he using HDR in his arts.. I know him. Therefore, I stop at HDR only for LANDSCAPE purpose. Black Cards.. I only get info from friend.. Never hand on experiences on that. FAKE/TIPU piece of arts..REAL HDR from orang putih... They teach me Natural HDR.. not that POPPING HDR. . Support Local photographer? I do support them like KEDA.Z ,Jen Siow, My University seniorSaiful Nang start his photography with RM50, My favourite Patrick LowI like this guy He explain everything including why he use concept and planning. I don't like Joe Chan he teach me buy his stuff... where can easily diy with a piece of paper. and many more... Why not support william??? He say ... shoot like a small gurl is not photography. where, I know a person guru call David Chua . I love his photograph.... support william??? I dunnoe... maybe his f1.4 blog need some changes... "Practice as what you preach". I here also not again him... I not sure we meet before, but... nice to meet up too.. honestly you explain very well.. Sincere person. The shogi... This shoots is taken with sunlight ray... which only few minutes... I faster get my camera snap it. Not big deal for your complement.. I still thinking view that can bring up the mood... very hard figure out. Product shoot is like bang... finish.. some stories telling picture indeed proven hard. thanks for your supportive comment.

The picture are taken by you, not your sifu. you can share your settings, gear and processing for the picture's... rather than explain who teach you how to take that picture.

Manual flash will be very slow and unpredictable to catch the quick moving moments.

That way, you'll stop making a fool out of yourself. Anyway, what's your point of printscreening your LR UI?

Can't blame you anyway. Do brush up on your English before proceeding to mock me in that language son, don't embarrass yourself. WOW! You're from FET then? Sorry to say, I'm from FOE myself. And sorry to have to let you down again, being an engineer in the working world isn't as glamorous as you thought it would be, you'll understand as you start your journey outside the gates of the university, word of advice to my little junior, learn to listen to others in the working world, and it'll make your life a lot easier. That way, you'll stop making a fool out of yourself. Anyway, what's your point of printscreening your LR UI? I have one too, your's doesn't look that much different than mine actually, apart from the edited picture of a bunch of kids in the centre that is. I have already said... don't have to comment my picture. Can you understand my plain english? Senior in engineering? so? working life hard? I think you make a huge mistake. Working life is about passion and love your job. Why learn to listen to people who are trying make you down with your serious in particular interest? Garry Friendman as NASA engineers he never complaint his work as Engineers and keep on make his project done in his early age of 20. I very respect him the way he judge my picture and sharing same passion in Engineering too. Why I silent almost 2-3 years in photography? I know that is not my expertise. I lean toward Engineering and Entrepreneurship. I'm MMU 10th Executive External Vice President Of Engineering Society. What I learn is helping each other in conduct a Event. Are this call glamour and important??? No!! Is about my passion. Honestly how much you liking your engineering programme? have picture with them?? show me!! Like what Garry Friedman did with his world genius record project. Maybe, I will bow my head. You must a PRO senior. I must learn better than you. Need all my pic prove?? No... I will keep it and frame it. I will tell my junior... Keep it up!! Brush up my English? Common!! This is forum.. Not English Class. You want to do literature review go back your office do. Journey out of gates of University? You teach me social life? Why shall you listen to ANGRY people talking?

Photo Fanatics Senior Member 3,461 posts Joined: Feb 2007 From: Kota Kinabalu, Sabah	Yo, stop the bickering. Both of you. Where's the fun in it? Might as well put your energy into making better pictures. Moonwalk, for some reason you had chosen to ignore my earlier post directed at you. Perhaps what I said is not acceptable to you? Should I continue to have a conversation with you, then? Honestly, posting photos without having to praise your mentors every time will bring you a long way in this forum. I would rather prefer that you share your photos together with how YOU did it, instead of always saying who taught you to do what. You are your own person. Your mentors are there to guide you to become who YOU ARE. I'm actually extremely encouraged and happy to see such strong willed new blood using Sony cameras. We are in need of raw talents like you. But toning down your attitude towards the seniors in this forum thread (whether you like it or not, they are seniors) might give you more mileage and earn you more respect. You are here to share photography in a FORUM. Please do remember that. I am by no means trying to reprimand or warn you (and I am not qualified to do so). Just some friendly advice, which you may or may not want to accept. If you are choosing not to accept, at least let me know, so that I don't have to continue repeating myself over and over again like a broken record. On a separate, totally unrelated note..... I'm a gearhead.

Just have to blame my internet connection at home for being down for nearly 2 weeks now! edpaul : Ehh? You seemed familiar but then again I might be mistaken.... lwliam : Aiyo... see lah... now you frighten away another newcomer.... Anyway... it all might be too late now but still... I have some advise for moonwalk if you are still here..... 1. Don't go dropping names You should listen to yourself talk. Every few sentences there's a name that's a somebody in the photography world. Why? Do you really need their credentials so that you can be confident enough in your own pics? 2. Listen without prejudice Different people have different ways of getting the message across. We need to be objective and see what's the real content. If there's truth in those content then we should acknowledge them. You know, you are not entirely blameless in this whole flame fest. Everytime someone comments that your pics need more attention, you would reply with something like : "Sifu so and so told me that's the way it should be so that how my pic is!" To be honest, that's kinda rude. Well, I better stop my 'uncle rants' ler.. hahahaha... Who got event to join? Please let me know lar... I am turning into a rock at home ler... no internet connection and no event to shoot...

I just like to say everyone taste are different, perception are different, everything have 2 sided looks, as long as we love what we done the thing right in shooting. Just continue it since it can bring us happiness actually you are many times better than me in term of shooting skill, english writing skill, even current condition you are feel alone surrounded the alpharians here. may be you did not know what is my histories over here which is something similar to your current condition 'surrounded', but today I am still here. Human are emotional and not perfect, somemore a lot of young man over here, all are full with passion!.

It achieved the latter but not the former. Only the STF was able to achieve both, but at the expense of autofocus. Anyway, I wish your son a speedy recovery. It is not easy being a father. I am coming to terms with this because I am now a father too. Have to balance between work, family and photography (and in your case, worse. gaming too! ) Hopefully when your son grows up, he will earn enough money to buy you at least a few Zeiss 24mm F2!

Thanks for your concern. He's ok now. Back to his mischievous old self. Well, I'm lucky Diablo III is not such a good game. Helps to cut down playing time. Now feel a bit bored playing ady...

Yeah, I would give up everything to see my kid face palm me, or hit me on my cheeks when I'm holding him. Hahaha.... priceless. There me go all sentimental about fatherhood. Better snap out of it. This is a photography thread, not a parenting thread! An impromptu "job" I had to do because I was asked by my friend to do some promotional shoot for his car magazine here in Sabah. It was in conjunction with one of the model search competition. Basically I have to cover two things. One is the visit to the Honda showroom by the contestants, and the other is the photos for an upcoming Honda advertisement / article that is going to be featured in my friend's magazine. Quickly go home to pick up my camera. And here is a teaser photo. Sorry, only screen shots of my laptop's LCD, as I cannot show the proper photo yet. Publication agreement, obviously. Lifted off my facebook page directly. One thing good about Sony's cameras (BOTH the DSLT & Nex systems), if you have a very involving client, your client can peep right over your shoulder and see what you are shooting. And your final captured photo is 95% accurate! He will be happier with the result in a much shorter period of time! And I shot the entire session using just the SEL1855 kitty lens....

I am quite afraid of bugs, unless the static one, i dare not get near.. I see you use flash right? about the flash, as i just want to try out, using internal flash, i found out that: 1) at A and S mode, when internal flash pop up, the shutter speed come to 1/60 2) at M mode, it can goes up to 1/160 will the speed increase using external flash? discover this when taking macro where light is dim, and want to increase shutter speed to reduce blurr..

Loyal Sony A100 User Elite 2,540 posts Joined: Mar 2008 From: KL	QUOTE(jimlim007 @ Aug 3 2012, 07:19 AM) guy, used f56 with unknow age of item with so call 9.5/10 cond priced 550 worth to buy? what else need to consider if wish to get a used flash gun... normally repair flash gun cost how much if sad case happen if due to the death tube... If age is unknown then I would suggest that you skip it. The f56 is at least 4 years old if not more. Top up your budget for another 200 bucks and you could get a new f43 with swivel head action! Buying used flash is risky because: 1. You do not know how heavily the flash has been used. The bulb might be close to expiring. 2. Old flash units will affect the WB as flash tends to turn warmer the older they get. Unless you are buying the flash to use for wireless and not as your main flash, I would suggest people to buy a new unit.

Try opt for a larger aperture size (smaller f-number) to get the background to melt away into a dreamy goo.

No, unless your F43 has the same receiver that is attached to the softbox. Your F43 will only fire wirelessly via the Sony protocol if you have your pop up flash activated or have a master flash attached firing from your A57 (ie. F58, another F43)

Yes, chinese call it "1 sen of money is worth 1 sen of quality" (or something like that lah), meaning you pay for what you get. Except for some unscrupulous sellers who sell cheap filters at exorbitant prices..... But having said that, it also depends on what lenses you want to put the filters on. If it is a relatively cheap lens (e.g. the SAL1855SAM kitlens), then you might not want to invest too much money on a filter, because if the lens is scratched, you probably can get a 2nd hand replacement lens for slightly more than a good quality filter. So the choice is really not entirely a straight forward decision. Of course, if you have a RM6000 lens, you will want to spend for some top quality filters to avoid damage to that expensive lens....

I check the price over shinsinki seem it is not a cheap stuff for a simple plastic, having to say so a diffuser is pricing rm260 and pro kit is >rm650. understand the price so high is his own invention, by judging the before & after photo use lightsphere, it gave nice effect and it is seem very fit to me (noob-did know when need to rotate/adjust the flash bounce) as the flash just need always face up to ceiling. But does anyone have REAL experience of lightsphere diffuser in alpha flash? does this product worth for its price? someone hinted lightsphere is rely on the ceiling, but does this work for MOST of msia building ceiling (haha noob question), speak of imitation, anyone other brand give similar result but even more cheaper? I check at Dpreview, someone mentioned lambercy... also, does anyone use GF powersnoot as well, doing homework up front and calculating needed funding least and not last, thank in advanved!

~Cursed Member~ Elite 3,928 posts Joined: Jan 2003 From: Incheon, Korea.. currently in Miri, Soviet Sarawak	jimlim, not worth it. the experience you learn from using the bounce shift, is more worth then that rm6xx/3xx. summore, any diffuser design (except demb diffusor) will eat up several stops of light. meaning, normal bounce use 1/4 power to light up the subject 8 meter away, but with GFLS will take up 1/1 power(2 stop)! that makes flash cycle slower! and takes up more power, and the design that wrap around the flash head makes Overheating Easier. even stofen will taken bout 1 stop. so in the end. Learn How to Use Bounce properly. for condition without Ceiling, u can use Wall bounce technique, or the built in bounce card is More Then Enough. or Demb diffuser (imitate of larger bouncer card) is another good alternative. i think most ppl with experience will agree with this.

Your friendly neighborhood photographer Elite 6,075 posts Joined: Jan 2006 From: 3.1553587,101.7135668	Absolutely agree with ieR's statement. Anyway I used to DIY own bounce card. Works perfectly as I wanted it to. Also acts as a white/18%grey card as well when needed (double sided surface). But eventually phased out from using it, now if I need, I just use the built in bounce card.

~Cursed Member~ Elite 3,928 posts Joined: Jan 2003 From: Incheon, Korea.. currently in Miri, Soviet Sarawak	Jimlim... honestly... the angle of bounce thing. is a CHILD play. give me 10 minute to draw. Added on August 13, 2012, 12:39 am Jimlim, are you familiar with a "Bouncing Ball" law of gravity/bounce (if such law existed)... when u throw a ball off, 90degree down, the ball bounce back 90degree right? so u if throw is 120 degree down, it will bounce 120 degree back up (it Wont bounce 90degree, dont say spinning ball laaa)... the logic apply to BOUNCE. so here you go with a lapsap cheatsheet from me.... if you look properly, u notice that, where ever ur subject is, u always bounce right in (directly) middle of between u and subject? see the idea? YES, IT IS THAT SIMPLE. period. all you need is bounce right in the middle of between u and subject. you dont need to be PRO to learn. ~~you need to be PRO to teach~~ so what so special about the skill to adjust the angle? Added on August 13, 2012, 12:48 amBTW, the gary fong cheat sheet is not good... why? because it doesnt show u other distant u need... it show a fixed distant... impossible u need to stay at that shooting distance fixed bah, and that is just close up of the face, u will notice they dont show the body because of the design, the light that reach below the 'flash's height' is like only 20%, so u get under exposed body, but 'so called' nice face shadow... there is a lot things u would know and easily manipulate by marketing gimmicks... and, well if i am marketing officer for gary, i can make even better marketing sheet! i can convince you not only buy 1 but buys 2 in 10 sec after reading. its a "EASY" job to manipulate ppl la. just hide all the weakness, blast out all the nice things.

Loyal Sony A100 User Elite 2,540 posts Joined: Mar 2008 From: KL	Agreed with ieR. No need to spend so much money buying diffusers. I hardly use anything other than the built-in bounce card on my F58 flash. - Big diffusers are a pain to carry around. They are bulky and you will have a hard time trying to fit them in your bag. - They are a pain to setup, especially for the demb. So many separate parts and you need to flip here, flip there and if you're in a hurry, you can kiss your photo op goodbye if you fiddle with your diffuser. - If the ceiling is low enough to bounce, then bounce works just a well. If the ceiling is too high for bounce, then diffusers also lose their effectiveness. They do depend on bounced light too. Just my thoughts.
