Nice shot. I'd process it different though, only because it reminds me of something from an old school textbook or magazine. Make that shot pop!

Did you shoot this at f/20 or around that area? Looks like you got some spots on your sensor. I had so many issues with that on my Mark 2 but my Mark 3 is still clean.

F/22 to be exact.

I been having dust in my sensor since last week. I tried cleaning it but i made it worst, also in the process i scratch my "split screen"! Im devastated but fortunately i have a 2 year warranty plan from Best Buy i will let them handle it....

I don't think that's intended for drops. More so scratches and dings.

Anyone in here going to SXSW?

Yes! I plan on going whenever Action Bronson performs. Going to have a hay day in Austin taking pics left and right.

Tell me about it. Those damn swabs are like $30 at my local camera store and bought the air pump thing and I still get spots on it. It's so damn sensitive especially when I am out doing long exposures when there are some wind cause I'll pop my lens out to put on another and just so many damn spots get on there. I literally have to photoshop them all out just to salvage the photo. Luckily you have that warranty though.

I plan to invest in that gel stick.

Fong, when you change lenses outside you should face it down to prevent dust from getting inside the camera. Got that tip from Jared Polin.

Thinking of getting a canon 7D this summer. Is this a legit deal to begin with?

Amazon product ASIN B0061SD9T4

I think you can get the body for cheaper minus all those accessories you don't need.

Q-Bert album release party. First time taking the Mar3 to a show and it is so much better with the focusing.

 

[mjbetch]

^Q-Bert got an album now?!


Just picked up this bad boy. Got rid of the EOS-M. Still haven't really gotten a chance to shoot with it.

 

[Fong$tarr]

^^^Yup. He did it all via Kickstarter too:

And nice pick up.

i always read great things about the fuji mirrorless joints, specifically & the m4/3rds cameras/system in general, but the retro aesthetic of those cameras bothers me...i know the eos-m had some issues but why'd you switch?

 

[muscle68]

Are the Leica S2's really worth the price? Like, if you're doing this professionally?

They don't even make those anymore, do they?

Never felt the need to shoot MF. Have a Hasselblad at the office, never even used it.

Fuji x100s is a beautiful camera, I love it. Auto focus is a pain sometimes as well as low light, but I love bringing it places because it's so unassuming.

On Friday I did a shoot with my girlfriend, and I'm starting to think that my ND filter is softening up my shots. I have a Polaroid circular ND. Granted I was shooting with an 85mm but I'm pretty sure it wasn't camera shake. Thinking of going with the B+W over the Hoya. Anybody have any suggestions?

Dope shot Fong 

Definitely something I wanted to try to do when I get another flash. Did you have someone else throw them up, use a remote, etc.?

Pick up some foamcore or whatever from like a Home Depot. Cheap and easy.
