You have a very good eye Wyatt. No doubt about it. You say first time in a studio. How did that come about? I mean by that are you just not keen on studio work or has it just not come up? Where was this studio? Did you hire? Would you like to work more in a studio?

 

Don't mean to pry. Just curious. And I mightt have an idea.

Thanks Martin.

 

No, I have never had the opportunity.

This was at CameraStuff last night.

It was my first time in a studio with lights and reflectors as we as triggers.

It was very interesting and I like how one can manipulate the light to what you want.

I certainly found it much easier to get good results with all that light.

I must say, I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Sherlock now wants to teach me Lightroom and Elements in depth .

Great shots for your first studio outing!  I quite enjoy studio work myself, I also like setting up home studios and location studio shoots.  Its quite addictive!

We had studio photos done for both girls when they were each less than a week old.
First time it was on a black background with soft lighting which I liked, and still do.

Second time, we went with a cream background - completely different feel with some stunning photos.

 

First one was a little more plain - pose, smile, shoot, repeat. Done in just over an hour.

The second one was way more creative with props, soft toys - we were there for almost 4 hours because the new-born was stubborn like her dad and couldn't sit still for 5 minutes - didn't feel comfortable with all this pampering.

 

I take my hat off to the studio photographers - patience is key, lots of it.

Morning Hubbers.


 


I have a technical issue with which I need some opinions.


I have a 10-year old Canon350D in reasonable condition. Of late it has been "washing out" about 30% of any batch of photos I take, even of the same scene with no changes made to settings or changes in scene, lighting or anything else. I don't think the problem is with the compact card since the problem has occurred with 2 different cards, although the problem could be the connection. 


 


Below are 2 examples taken of the same scene at the Epic finish. they were shot on continuous setting with the same exposure and shutter speed and have just both been reduced in size in Photoshop for the purposes of posting here. I saved them both to the minimum setting and notice the resultant size in files.  Original file sizes were 3.45 Mb and 845Kb.


 


Anybody got any ideas what the problem could be?


 


Cheers.

Definately the sensor that does exposure, could just be intermittent.

 

Shoot fully manual, and see if you get the same issue

I'll try that but hate intermittent problems. Do you think it would worth it to repair or just "koop nuwe"?
