Added on May 2, 2007, 2:23 pmit is very common for a digital photographer to edit the pic, no matter using DSLR or PNS...and i think it become a must, since a DSLR cannot produce nice color like the film SLR has produced no matter how hard u try to take or using high-end lens... this is also why the DLSR or PNS keep upgrading, to have a better sensor and etc

a graphic designer is not editing pic like the way the normal photographer did. And as long as the photographer didnt over edit the pic...i think it is accepted. But of course learn to take nice pic so important, but it must cum with a little bit of editing skill.

anyway i'll post my original pic here when i go back

Added on May 2, 2007, 10:14 pmwell..it is a nice model. and i didnt regret to get it...

but i can c some of the forumers here take nice pic with a D40 or using slightly lower standard DSLR compare to 400D...but of course, some of them own it, but the pic is not that stuning...so my conclusion is, it actually depends on the photographer. and get the DSLR that u think u want the most

i get 400D cos it give me almost everything that i need ( none of the DSLR is perfect IMO ). i dont like D40 or D40X as we need to buy the lens which come with autofocus, and i think is a bit troubelsome for me, i didnt chose 350D as it is just a few hundred cheaper than 400D...so i go for 400D which can serve me better .i didnt get the DSLR which has higher standard than 400D as they are out of my budget ..hehehehe

frankly speaking...

i have a kit lens, and a L lens 17-40mm (not mine), but i can use this L lens for few months, as the owner do not need it at the moment. I try both of the lens taking the same shot...suprisingly, kit lens perform very well..almost has the same details that capture by L lens. I actually cant c much different, seriously.

the conclusion is, never under estimate the kit lens, although i know that alot of ppl claim that kit lens is nothing, and many of them sold it out.

oh ya..all the pics that i posted above taken by me are using kit lens NOT L lens, although i hv L lens at the moment

A model shoot...and i only has 1, others, turn out not nice. i actually didnt plan to have model shoot in KLCC...i accidentally met this fashion show, and try to have some shoot..then have to rush back to Penang on the same day ..will try to shoot more, if penang has any fashion show lol...


C&C pls..first time have this kind of shoot..hehehe

thanks...

just like normal

for the windows shoot

ISO 100
f5.6
1/125s
and i adjust all the contrast and saturation to the highest point to get more vivid color

---

Added on May 7, 2007, 8:54 pmthanks, but i'm not going to post the original pic over here, cos i think the forumers here maybe a bit sensitive... well...i have to admit that the window series i add more green to the first pic and more red to the second pic to get different feeling ( while for other pics that i have posted here, i didnt do that)...it is impossible for me to try very hard to adjust the histogram in my digicam, as i just walk past and so happen with the camera on my hand, so i just snap. Dont ask me to stand under the hot sun for more than 15 mins..and adjust this and adjust that to get the right color that i want (except for the aperture, ISO and speed ). I'll only do that, when i'm well prepare, and i arrange my time, purposely go for photo hunting for the certain hours or day.

but, i really dont understand y alot of the forumers here are so sensitive on editing .....they should have take note on the situation of the photographer

oh ya citifish...i'm neither attacking u nor make comment judging from yr post....i just tumpang, and add some of my personal view when i post this to thank you for making comment on my pic:)

very very hard to take these kind of pics and i dont really like them, will try again next time..and pks teach me how to take this kind of pic, very hard to focus la...

oh use manual focus...i use auto focus

yupe..i use f1.8 iso 800 or 400, and the shutter speed around 1/200 and the thungsten light, cos i want it to be blue hehehe....they say must use manual focus so i'll try next time..i'm not satisfy with the result that i have posted above
