i have it easy with my Chessie. She freezes up when you put anything on her head. cant even bribe her with food. she hates it so bad... great for modeling shit like this though. haha.

 

Needs moar bar dragging!



And awesome photos Skim! Lots of cool shots there.

I concur.

 

I do like it. Fast and crisp, just wish my body had better low light capabilities...

Now that I've seen a 7DmkII, hard to not want one. Some frames from a cathedral wedding...very nice.

 

Nothing but the light of an iPod screen and a strand of Christmas lights and Exp dialed down a bit.

At what settings did you take the sunset shot? Did you use a filter?

 

Not bad for the price and what it does! The Auto focus system in that thing truly amazing! But still has the poor iso capabilities, id give it +1 stop over the former version

 

Great set of images! This one stands out for me! I miss my macro lens

 

Version II

 

Anything is an upgrade for me. I would like to go full frame, but I will be starting over with glass too. Dang this hobby.

Yes.

 

Nikon D3s
85mm f1.4D
1/4000th
f2 (for the foreground blur)
iso 200

i cant recall if i had a filter on for this shot. i did an entire series just before this with a 10 stop ND filter (for some long exposure stuff) however, i think i might have left the CPL on for this shot. however, looking at my settings, im leaning towards being bare

Thanks man. i love that shot too. one of my fav macros to date. i never thought i could get into shooting spiders up close (i hate them with a passion) but as soon as i started getting high magnification, clear images, it really became quite exciting.

this was also the biggest jumping spider i have ever seen. he was also very curious about my camera lens. luckily, i had about 1ft working distance with the 200mm macro. (cant imagine shooting stuff like this with a 60-100mm) haha

 

Haha I hear ya! Between this and owning a toyota can really put a damper on the bank account

 

I wanted to wish all my fellow photographers in here a Merry Christmas. I hope everyone has a safe and enjoyable holiday. May your sensor be big and aperture fast. lol

 

Thanks you too murph!

 

Thanks Murph! And same to you and to all my TW pals!

 

Merry Christmas guys!!
