This batch of photos is actually my 1st model shooting with my 350D...
I was using 28-200mm f/3.5-5.6 as my primary lens during the shooting, featuring by 50mm f/1.8...
The photos were taken at Taman Jubli Perak, (also known as "Garden"... ) Sungai Petani, together with aba9785, KTCY and CloudX...
Model is Ping... my best friend ever...

except for the strong bokeh by the 50mm and a presentable model, i dont find anything interesting with all these pics.

perhaps u should try snapping her while she's on the move. try different lighting techniques like the sillhoute and light diffusion.

anyway, nice shots! keep it up.

hmm, yup I got your point... you meaning to see something more creative instead of all these boring stand still images, right? hmm... : but that's sounds interesting and more challenging... agreed with you... Thanks for the comment, bro...

1st day of CNY also did portrait shooting
geng

I personally like the mood on the 2nd pic.you've got all the basics already i do think you can go further with more creative shots.

#2 should use higher aperture to blur the background more
#5 the face OOF

Just my personal preference though
Anyway nice efforts

Lao, so fast post up joh. I haven't even go through

The gal leng leng...

I found some of the picture to be slightly OOF..

And some with too much shadow... easiest way to settle it is via flashing.. best can have reflector so you should have different color source for color balance correction later...

I like the gal and I think she is natural... If you have the Canon EF85 f1.8, you can immediately see vast improvements!

@ bold : I sense poison

Hahaha...

I can see the EF85 f1.8 USM that only cost RM1380 will turn your #2 pictures into completely different one... that will wow whoever you see the pictures..

PM me for me to join your potrait shots so you can play with some of my gears to understand the important of good lenses...

yeah agree. next time try to use fill-in flash. Especially for #8

wah portrait shooting until SP, geng

aba9785 never jio also, boring until nothing to do.

Do u guys know that thevoid is a salesman for nonac???

On the pics, i felt its just above average. Some pics were OOF while the last few ones seems overexposed alittle. I felt composition will be better if ur model is looking at ur cam.

I like pic no 1 & 7 however

Wei you sure its only 1380? Hahaha! Can think about it wor...

haha, since I was free, so just do it lo...

Thanks bro, will surely try it out...

your advice noted.


haha... me efficient ma...

ya, actually seems not really nice to use 28-200 for portrait shots, haha...

unfortunately that fella is not using 350D....

haha, actually it was last minute decision, so I think he was not able to contact you I guess...

noted bro...

Walao eh... tai koh oledi post up pictures... geng
