Calling all Photography nerds!

few i just edited. ones a hike a home, and the other is the iconic bridge in big sur. it probably took me 5 trips to big sur to get none over cast weather at a sunset to take a picture of that bridge, just bad timing on me going there because its normally beautiful windy but beautiful

 

Haven't made it to Yellowstone yet, but it is on my list of places to go!

 

Finally took another picture of the truck!

 

I just ordered a motorized panorama head... I'll be trying to get some nice timelapses at a fly-in event I'll be going to in a couple weeks. The Taco will be towing the camper. I'll definitely try to get pictures. And timelapses. Timelapses are so fuggin cool!

 

Yeah I think I went there a few times as a kid also with my grandparents. Very scenic!

time lapse you say..? someones speaking my language.

Side note.. here a picture of the new rig. Almost finished getting it dialed in this weekend for jump champs.

5DmarkIV with 16-35mm f4 L IS, RØDE videomic go with deadcat, and smallHD Focus will the smallrig skeleton/hood.

 

Just picked up a Lumix G85. I shoot video so that's what sold me on it. Not much into pictures but happy to have a decent camera besides my GoPro and phone to take a decent pic of the truck.

 

Spontaneous capture in Bend, Oregon after celebrating Cinco De Mayo

 

that picture is great btw, random question but watermarks. i just created one using lightroom, is there a specific way they look better or more professional? yours looks extremely professional i was going for more of the bum look lol. i just made one for shits and giggles on to add one just incase. see pic if anyone recommends something else font wise. sorry for reposting a pic i had already posted.

 

Nice. The 5Ds are nice. Here's what I would do vlogging and ground/b-roll with:




Olympus OM-D EM5 MkII on a Cullmann Magnesit Copter tripod, which folds to make a very good round grip. Ball head, very stable! The lens is a simple 14-42 f/3.5-5.6. I use it for video because it's decent enough, but it's small, compact, collapses and the (accessory) lens cover automatically closes when the lens retracts. Rode VideoMicro Compact mic works quite well. The internal mics on the camera aren't horrible, tho.

I save the awesome (Oly 12-40 f/2.8 Pro) lens for still and other serious work.

 

Here is one I did of a Jaguar 3.8 liter straight 6 rebuild. It was my first attempt, please be kind.

Your signature logo should reflect what you want it to. It represents how you present yourself and only you. Don’t copy someone else, do what you think looks good. I was at first intrigued by that popular logo signature service, but it became SO popular, you saw it everywhere. That’s why I steered away from it and created my own style.

 

That's what I was trying to do also, glad its not all signatures lol

 

Had a blast at jump champs.. but boy was it a mud fest! Glad my camera is weather resistant.

I havent even processed photos yet, but check out this clip I took on the back straight away just before the right hand sweeper.



Info about the clip is on the description.

 

Got my camera in. Not any good at photography nor do I really try to be, got it mostly for video use but wanted a rolling shot off my truck so I played around and got this out of it

 

Love the bridge pic -- everything about it is great -- now if you could just get the power co. to drop those lines for a bit. Maybe touch them out?

 

Ty I'm not that good at Lightroom I've been trying that

 

Enjoyed the rolling shot. I am involved with Evo and S2000 clubs, and they do alot of rolling shots. Don't see as many Tacoma rollers.

 

Neat. Love me some timelapses. I ordered the battery grip bit I need for my EM-5 MkII. The battery part will work with it, but the grip part from the original EM-5 won't. When doing timelapses, 2 batteries is better than one!

 

photoshop. Lightroom isnt really for that kind of editing.

 

I cant believe the battery grip for my camera was $300! outrageous. Bought one from a friend used in perfect condition for $100. haha. I hardly use a grip when I time lapse. I dont think its necessary.. unless you are trying to go all night long. You can get roughly 900 shots on 1 full battery of a 5D. Now what id suggest doing instead of getting a grip, is getting a dummy battery. Put that in, then plug that into an external battery. I have a 20000mAh external charger that I got at walmart for $50.
