Re: New Camera Test.

Thanks guys! not bad for my first go. :lol
 
Re: New Camera Test.

They look great jay! :rock I really need to get me a little setup for photoshoots of my statues instead of taking outdoor shots all the time. I really like the black background you used in the last set of shots and I like the border you used on all of them too.

So I take it these were done with the 450D? How do you like it so far man?
 
Re: New Camera Test.

Certainly not.... maybe you got hidden talents? :D :rock
:lol I wish.

Yeah 450D and i'm loving it! i don't think the black cloth i'm using is the right stuff as most time it reflects way too much light and i get overblown pics.

Also using aperture priority the camera is over overcompensating for all the black so not getting good pics. At the moment i'm just playing with the exposure compensation and iso levels and they are getting better.

But first thing is to change that cloth to something better. Got any tips for me on shooting onto black? as i was hoping to do most of my collection this way.

I honestly can't say I have any tips for you man. All my shots were taken outside, so I didn't have any kind of special background.

I haven't used aperture priority since I shoot in manual. If I were to give any kind of suggestion, it would be to give manual a try. When I shoot outside, I have the ISO on 100. I keep the aperture on 8.0 and the shutter speed I keep around 1/30, 1/40 or 1/50 depending on the light outside. So you can try those settings if you want when you take outdoor shots and see how they come out. If it's too bright or dark I usually just adjust the shutter speed accordingly.

Nice one i'll give those a shot and manual settings. :)
 
Re: New Camera Test.

Yeah man, just experiment with the settings. You can use the same guidelines for indoor shots too. I would put the ISO around 400 if it was me but otherwise just adjust the shutter speed as needed, lower if it's too dark or higher if it's too bright. The lower the number the more light entering the camera and the higher the number, less light will enter.

One thing to keep in mind though is the lower you go the shutter speed will get slower, meaning there will be more of a delay when you take the picture. So in that time there's more of a chance of the shot coming out blurry if you move the camera too much.

Like I've said before I'm nowhere near a pro with the camera but I'll try to help as much as I can with my limited knowledge. Not that you really need it though cause your photos already look awesome. :D
 
Re: New Camera Test.

Thanks Havok been an had another play and maybe the black cloth was ok i just moved Naruto further away found some good settings and i think they came out well. :)
