QUOTE(gerald7 @ Aug 31 2012, 01:58 PM) @ifer, speaking of interior and architecture, is distortion really that bad that must be killed on sight? Im curious, my friend want to go into architecture photography I have not much experience or interest on that. I always assumed its how ' correct ' the clients want the building to be? My friends thinking of getting the tilt shift lens. My thinking is if can get jobs once a month, why not .... but if once ayear....? Whats a relatively decent starting lens for architecture photography ? you can correct the barrel distortion using photoshop. but you have to remember that you will probably need to do each and every photograph. as for the 16-35mm lens, zoom it at 16mm and the distortion is so bad that it looks almost fish eye. once you have corrected the distortion, your 16mm angle becomes more like 18mm and above. then what's the point of getting this lens? i rather use the rm 300 18-55mm lens tilt shift lens is fantastic. but it's expensive too. i assume your friend is using nikon. nikkor has only 24mm PCE lens as the widest. this lens is a fantastic lens. however, canon has a 17mm TSE lens. sometimes due to the space, you just need a wider angle tilt shift lens. so, if your friend is serious in doing architecture/interior photography for a living, change system to canon. by the way 17mm TSE is about rm 8800 and 24mm TSE is 6500. but then again, i have heard that samyang are coming out with a 24mm tilt shift lens soon. nikkor 14-24 is nice but it has a little bit of distortion too. and of course you couldn't shift the lens when you needed it to.

So if i wanted to do a some architecture photography my 1755 would be sufficient for a start ? on a side note, today I was given an extra flash from 1988.. lol ... SB-24 amazing, it still works! But no optical trigger, drats!

QUOTE(Everdying @ Aug 31 2012, 01:39 PM) so u go wedding also...ur uncle / auntie / doggie also can get the shot. why pay 4-5 figures for pro photog go take wedding pics? cos of reliability. u dont later go tell the client...aiyah i miss the shot of najib la...some ***** with ipad block my shot  Wah , u compare media vs wedding pic  , ur actual day is from morning til night dinner , and photographer need to deliver maybe over 2k~3k picture and paying Rm900~RM1200 for 1 photographer , compared to media photographer shoot najib face 1 picture = 4figure?  Mind to tell me which media offer such good price? I also wan go interview  p/s: Picture only won't give u 4figure pay , unless u shoot + main page of newspaper + full page of description maybe u will get 4figure  At least this is what i know This post has been edited by chongkiatz: Aug 31 2012, 09:32 PM
