not possible to check shutter count on EOS 60D.

Hi.. Is Yongnuo 560 iii is a good budget flash? I dont need any fancy functions, just a flash to brighten up my photos.. My friend told me that it is a good flash for budget/beginner photographer..

Sorry again for noobish questions..

Thanks.. What do u meant by "fully manual"? Can u enlighten me pls?

HMmm further crop?

the maximum focal length for 50mm is 0.4m, i cant go any closer

as for composition, still learning.... The cut off fork just mistake realize after taken,

and this picture is without proper setup, it just took within 5-10mins hahaha

Im planning to get new cam, 6d + 24-70mm kit f4L ( food + travel)
Then in additionally thinking of getting another 430x
Everyday feeling it bro the food, practice makes perfect,

Then futre future time another 70-200 for further food photography

=S

too much theory and too little real world practise

Not really, Longer lens give better DOV

Another Example

Hahhaahahah
just saying for future expansion =X

Which side of basic I need to improve some more???
Composition? Exposure?WB?

Things that I Dont know where to start
Flash, composition

Don't know why u guys keep bashing me?
Did I said something wrong?

Nonon I mean critic the picture I'm totally fine  with it. Just the equoent part why keep bash on certain equipments?
No bro I'm asking why the bashing without explanation , need clarification why not that lens why not this lens I would like to know.
Just now says 50mm not good for food. Why? Need justification

Hmmmm okay I read back, but why kit lens?
Im just wondering, why peoe outside Dont suggest zoom lens for food phorgraphy?
Any particular reason? Floating f.?

Oo,
Hmmmm I should really try a lot on the camera.

No, I just asking why some site prefer prime > zoom when taking food photography? I try many time f2-3.5 not very good for food also it blur out the front focus. Whats the reason they still suggesting it??
And even the 50mm with Min 0.4m it doesn't make it take 3/4 food but only 1/2 on apsc sensor

I was supposed to go 5D Mark II, then EOS 60D came out with tilt-LCD.

It works so much better when it comes to interior photography and food photography.

Imagine I could tilt the LCD to the front while doing food arrangement, without having the trouble of setting up with additional cost, those add on LCD and HDMI cables and whatever.

I'm still using the 60D today because my work is such that clients are satisfied with it. And the tilt LCD works fine.

Professionals today, many are using APS-C. I'm sure you know people like Louis Pang, a friend of mine, using Fujifilm X-T1 nowadays while DSLR sits collecting dust.

So yeah you guys may think FULL FRAME is da bomb but APS-C is now where many professionals are using.



That doesn't mean I don't go full frame though, I just got myself a Nikon D750 but I bought it not for the Full Frame. To me the sensor has never been an issue.

I want to jump to X-T1 for the longest of time but it's a little limited.

Went for the D750 because I feel that having Dual SD-card slot is great for professional purpose, plus it has WiFi ability, pop-up flash trigger and tilt-LCD (not as nice as 60D / 70D).

All those others like A7 and Fuji stuff are great, light and all but they don't have many things I like on it. A7 isn't cheap either.

My EOS 60D's SD card slot went bongkers one day and so many content lost, some pictures I have to retake. Some I haven't even retake.

As for Canon's products, I highly recommend the EOS 70D over the rest. Flip LCD ftw!

Once I settle all my stuff for this year, I'll probably just get the X-T1 for the experience.

So... taking the 105 or the 70?

an extended of 30mm is a great extention

Distortion can be fix with photo shop, i read too
even 8mm lens round distortion can become a landscape photo

In term of sharpness 70 or 105?
you guys might say the different is very minimal,

The plus side for 70mm is light weight
and the macro many people said can throw away

sometimes a zoom lens that denotes 'macro' simply allow you to go nearer to the subject but dont really give you macro performance
i dont know about the lens you mention as i never used before but thats from my experience with a few "macro" zoom lenses

he has been talking on and off nonsense for the page 2 pages posting ma....  

I where got talk none sense

The feature added for macro is an aid on taking close up object.

But, If this lens wants to take macro it is almost touching the object. Taking macro need sufficient light, with this lens aim so close to your object ,u can't really aim your flash.
