nice pics bro
especially the last one lol.

now felt like want to go PC fair also

At least u managed to find sony girls, which i failed to cover. Cant see them around as well during the time i went.

Yeah, i made 2 rounds yesterday. The first just to aim which girls i want to shoot and what setting should i use over there. Second round, just shoot shoot shoot...

Didn't notice the Sony girls also during the first round...

more chick pls!!!

walau, u so geng, can take photo until 1/8 shutter speed.
god hand, can hold so steady!

mana ada god hand, maybe my work in labs made my hand a bit steady, but i prefer to shoot in low ISO, slower shutter speed and without flash. I admit that in PC Fair the light condition was a bit challenging.

Got to save little cash for faster lens. Maybe 50mm f1.8 for a starter.

Your subjects seems a little underexposed save for the last two. What metering did you use?

There's one succubus you missed . Maybe she's off shift when you were shooting.

It was because of the lightning. Main hall at 2nd and 1st floor used yellow lightning, ground floor more to white florescence light. Got one nice girl near the games booth totally overexposed. Like FESEM mentioned, all my shots were at ISO 200 & 1/8 s. I used M mode that day. So metering does not count.

when i was there i see all the gals with very KAW ICI paint on the face..
but in pic all very nice..

I only have one comment for all your shots. They are all blurred! 1/8 is too slow for your hands without VR. All the models face are OOF even at this small resolution. I wouldn't want to imagine the full-sized photos.

i felt WB a bit out lor... just my comment...

Frankly speaking... PC Fair 3 was rather boring.
- the promoters are too "aggressive" and I could not browse and choose the the stuffs.

- the models are very "funny"... some of them refused to pose at all, most of them covered their bodies with huge leaflets.... so, what is the point if they are are wearing nice, pretty and sexy dress if in the end they were reluctant... i think the organizers should get more open-&-crazy-posing-minded models.... it's is funny when we get these photos online or publish in the newspapers....

Any sifus here care to give tips for panning photography?

i'm no sifu.. but i think u should take with longer shutter speed..so that the bg will blur kaw2..hehe.. lesser dan 1/10 should be nice...

Thanks for the tips, i tried slower shutter speed but my hand were so shaky. I was standing about 5 meters from the drift line, scare the drivers might bang me.

Gotta dig some Henry's photo later and study. I remember he got very nice panning photo if i'm not mistaken.

im not sifu, im also a newbie.. from what i read and pratice .. try use 1/25 - 1/30 shutter speed..

Freak`

TQ for the tips... I hope they will drift again next week, then i can panning again.

Added on December 15, 2007, 9:50 pmHere some of my shots today at Shah Alam go-cart circuit today. Maybe this would be the best practice place for my panning technique...

nice one dude .. next try lower the shutter speed .. u use 1/50 right? try 25-30.. u'll see the different.

Freak`

i used 1/50 for Gen2 and 1/30 for mini cooper. It was hard to do panning without tripod. Thanks for your comment bro!

Those are some nice panning shots dude... esp the apartment one and the go karts... the focus subject's nice and sharp

a bridge photo was nice. but masjid putra mosque seems a bit soft. hand-held onli? better use tripod. putrajaya definiatly have a lot sceneric shot. btw..from where u shoot the bridge? from the road-bridge or from PJH building?

from the stairs near the mosque. Actually i didn't plan to shoot the building, just came over that place with my cam after having dinner with my x-schoolmates. Thats the reason why i didn't bring a tripod with me...

eh, looking forward to meet you at KL Bird Park next week!

stairs? i'm oso alweyz shoot from there. btw..if u going putrajya..calling2 lah me. i'm often went to putrajaya on weekend.

update my gallery with pics taken with new lens. C&C are welcome as always!

C&C are most welcome!

Can i comment on your creative angle doesn't help ? *not all , some of them is very good and it'll just make viewer turns their head left and right.

agree wit andy...i think camera angle was also important to engage viewers interest.Too much unecessary rotation on ur subject will be a 'burden' for the viewers...anyway ur lens is cool..the putrajaya pictures was awesome!!it will make paklah wanna cry...

azmi: colour is not consistent. Anyway nice one, I like pic no 2

saw in shutterasia... hahah nice

- bring the photo to new page -

wah! congrats bro! mine official this saturday ^^

ok only num 5, if you shoot abit further down it'll be ok! ;D
9. superb, how'd you do that?! awesome.
10. something new! never seen this in any wedding photo before.

awesome bro, like to see more soon!

great pics azmi, 1 comment, no.5 alignment lari abit, senget

no 9 super impose ke? huhuuh

no 9, shot around 4 pm, the sun really hot from back, about 45' to the left. I triggered flash from bottom front about 45' to the right using SB-600. Actually this was experimental shot inspired by ShutterSpeak (Zadan)'s trademark, but i think a failed one The last results from heavy pp'ed using dodge, burned and cloned tools.

no10 i think normal "must have" wedding shot nowadays...
thanks for your support!

yeah, come to think again num 5 really senget...

heavy pp'ed...

one more shot using same method as no9, but the background maybe lack of detail, coz too blowout.

i like picture no4. available light..

no 1. too many empty space for me i would prefer portrait shot for hantaran and go close up.composition will be much eaiser for you, you'll fill in the bottom part with the subject and give a lil' space on the top part.

n0.4 i like this one!black background makes the subject comes out.

no.6 & 10 : already too many wedding photographer do this

no. 9 : i like this strobe! ehehehe cun!juuuuust.....a lil' bit of halo i can see there. and if they pose lain skit more cun!

hope my comments help bro!

TQ, bro...

i vote for no 4 & 9..
others maybe too "must have" posing for malay wedding.. hehe..seen too many ady..

no 9, nice effect bro.. dosent matterla if u overPPed it, the effect still amazing. only dun quite prefer the pose..(too...errr.. common?..i think la.. tats my noobie 2 cents anyway..).

No 10, hehehe... almost all wedding function that i went to, the OPs will ask the couple to do that thing.. so, its common for malay wedding oso. we ought to think of other posing styles/techniques/angle la.. lets think together.. hehe..

This post has been edited by kord: Jan 30 2008, 05:13 PM

hahaha.. i just follow the style i observed from senior photographers for malay wedding only. I still searching for my own identity...

But, suddenly i got another 2 invitations from nowhere asked me to be their OP for their wedding...

waaa... good for u bro! rezeki jgn ditolak.. hehehe..

hello bro... ur stills looks like a professional cameraman la.. really good to c... especially the amin&devi pics... really luvs it.. effects all... u will becum a sucessful cameraman soon for sure.. my best wishes n gud luck.

Just want to share...

#1


#2 Kite anyone?


#3


#4 My untie keep me company...

huhu.. gambar TC.. aku pun ade gak... tapi HDRed version la... and.. ur angle lagi best la....jhihii

maybe a closeup more suitable the title

nice pic bro

don't have closeups on those 2 girls. They don't want to smile at me

But i have this one...





TQ bro, sudah save enough money bro? Nnt 450D out ngam2 cukup duit...

not really bro. dunno when bro

loved 3 & 4 very colorful.

for number 2 you might wanna use a bit smaller aperture so that
the texture can be seen clearly.

eh, isnt this the last couple before this?

for #2 i did use smaller aperture, but not really like that version. All i want was a thin DOF so the kris engraving is on focus but everything elso is OOF. Reflection on kris head came from a window in front. Lucky shot i guess...

yeah, this is the last couple. Last time was at ampang (bride's side) and this time was at bt gajah (groom's side). Unfortunately, the bride is already pregnant now - so morning sickness stole a smile from her face.

suker pic no 2..
bro.. kalo lenkali nak ikut shoot wedding bleh x?

walao, shoudn't i the one who follow you shooting event?

i just shot for fun not for money, but if you are interested to follow i'll let u know.

want to learn la bro, the lighting and also to shoot in proper way, asyik main blasah je.. ekekeke..

btw, aku pun shoot 4 fun..

nice bro...

Shoot is fun... Shoot 4 fun...
Lama Xdgr berita...
