love these two the best. Keeepeeedap

so far so good.. focused on others recently XD

Im all for film look or analog looks but recently looks like everyone is doing it. I do it on all my phone instagram pics(i blame vsco) =D. But most photos I shoot on dSlR seldom, too much effort LOL.

What do you guys think about this trend?

well it probably is that easy ... but then again i could never achieve effects like those by VSCO. Just wanting to see what you guys feel about it.

But personally I like digital photos not trying to be analog. Unless Im shooting the FE2 then, I like analog pics.

images that moves the emotion.. wow. which images are those bro, please share

i like axioo works as well.

can elaborate ? which gears were limiting and which ones would assist in creating the best img ?

For me I think between flash vs continuous light vs light painting each has its on pros & cons. In theory in my head continuous light is best as you can see the reflections and shadows as you adjust your product placement.

Flash itself is tricky and very time consuming to setup. Things like bard doors, snoot even ND filters all need to be available to shape the light.

lightpainting is good but location and post is abit daunting for me.

well just take note and do better. we are all always learning and improving. as long as dont give up, should be no issue

Few years back when I was in the mood of photography. I took nearly 40 mins to setup a lighting for one shot using 5 speedlite used 3 nikon and 2 canons https://flic.kr/p/nyq5RK. as long as we are satisfied. end of the day its how close you can get the image to the image in your head, should be golden

Good try. what was the speed you guys were going at? Looks like can squeeze longer shutter + increase speed slightly for more blur and more fun. But stay safe la, try on abandon roads

Dont go highway too dangerous to slow down. safety 1st. try search industrial areas. Normally the roads wider and not so heavy traffic. I know you want more speed for more "motion", but at higher speed you will have more wind and more vibrations no matter how smooth the road is.

Remember safety 1st.

ideally using rigs would be better.

can do tighter shots, as seen above

but its good to have. if you have funding why not? else, the next best is ok la...

All my lens are D lens.

yup!!!


well hobbyist spend more I think. they want the creamiest bokeys. pro photogs lean towards bang for the buck.

My ultimate fav lens for bokey is the 200m f2.0. had to opportunity to molest one a few years ago.

hahaha for me that is KING... super bokey and can train biceps too !

getting there dy.. slowly.. keep shooting
