Tacoma Photography??

This is the list of budget lenses I'm working on (2 left):

10-24 f/3.5-4.5G (not yet) $800
16-85 f/3.5-5.6G (check) $600
35 f/1.8G (check) $200
50 f/1.8G (soon) $200
70-300 f/4.5-5.6G (check) $600

Then I'll sell my 5100 for the 7100 and shift funds back to the bike/pickup.

Those are prices brand new btw, I buy a lot of gear refurbished to save $.

 

10-24? That's not the Canon is it? I have the 10-22 ES-F and I love it. Corners get pretty stretched out tho.

 

Nope, Nikon DX lens. It will be my last purchase, even after the body. I don't "need" it, I just like creative wide angle shots.

 

Caught this with my iphone long time ago, one of the best pics I ever took of it I think. The sky in the background and how it reflects off the paint on the truck. I didn't (nor do I know how) edit it at all.

 

this goes for almost anything

photography, racing, shooting guns, cooking, etc

 

I'm a pro photographer on the side...

I have a Canon 5DMKIII and a 1DMKIII, and all L lenses.

That being said, all I ever shoot my truck with is my iPhone.

 

Wow didn't realize there were and are so many Tacoma photographer enthusiast
Nice!!

 

I don't think I can post most of my latest work to this forum though. NSFW

 

I do have email and a cell phone. LMAO

 

lol

Same here. I have a ring flash and was experimenting using it as a main softbox on a stand to get nice round catchlights in her eyes.

 

I don't mind sharing...

 

With digital cameras being so affordable these days, its easier for people to become hobbists/prosumers and then eventually making jump up to professionals.
The biggest limitation in the old days was film and film processing. Now people can shoot all they want and experiment and learn with no additional costs other than buying a laptop and photoshop.
When I first started as a professional, we shot everything with Hasselblads

 

It was painful when I sold all my medium format film stuff. Then I gave my old Leica rangefinder to my sister (who is an amazing photographer and still shoots a ton of film) and that was the last film camera I had kicking around.

 

Me too
Because of guys like Denis Reggie, the photojournalistic style wedding photos became really popular here, and everybody wanted their wedding shot on 35mm. The prices of used medium format plummeted back then. Once digital backs for medium format became available and relatively affordable, the prices shot back up again

 

Checked out your page, very nice images, i am a photographer on the side, but cant afford all the fancy lenses quiet yet, are you willing to sell any since you got all the lenses? currently i am shooting with a MKii with a 135L prime let m eknow

 

Samsung Galaxy S3

 

If you'd like a substantial upgrade in camera bodies, I am selling a 1DMKIII.

 

Everytime I'm out & about my 7D goes with me. As far as lenses go I carry a EFs 15-85mm, EF 70-300L, and the EF 40mm STM.

 

I use my iPhone 5, if I had the money I would get a nice DSLR

These are from my iPhone and Instagram filters... lo

I think they are pretty good for a phone and l love how my phone is always with me.

 

Hope you had better luck than me, my iPhone 4S sucks worse than a hooker. I hate this thing. Guess the only thing it's really good with is pictures and video haha. But other than that, call clarity and reception sucks, battery life sucks even when I turn all my apps off I am halfway dead by noon when I barely use it. Sometimes end up charging it twice a day.
