ParticipantI am going to be lazy and just use one of mine from 2003 Ice Storm in Lexington:
I have not decide which yet.
ParticipantLooking for suggestions for good mobile lighting solutions. My photos come out with this pink tinge using my current setup (architects lamp on dining room table). Any suggestions?
Probably a halogen bulb. Buy a new bulb. Get a color balance one. You want a color temperature of 5200 to 5500?K and a CRI as close to 100 as possible.
ParticipantDoes anyone know if the pre-Lite voting remains, or if the voting slate is wiped clean when the thread moves over?
Just curious…
I’m pretty sure the pre-lite voting remains
ParticipantThis camera is the best deal you can get for a new DSLR. 2 sharp lenses, and a very nice camera.
But then I own it’s big brother, the E-1. 🙂ParticipantDoes anyone know if the pre-Lite voting remains, or if the voting slate is wiped clean when the thread moves over?

ParticipantShould have been ” I have not touched…”

Another thing to ask, do you have any SLR lenses now? Flashes? If so will they work with any DSLR on the market? That was a significant factor in my decision. I also like Pentax cameras in the way they feel and work. Others don’t.
My only major concern on the 4/3s system is its longivity. Will it survive? Olympus makes nice equipment but I have not seen alot of 3rd party stuff yet.
But here’s some conversions:
http://www.fourthirdsphoto.com/I have touched a E500 or E300. The E10 and E20 were very nice. THey were DSLRs but did not have interchangeable lenses
ParticipantTesting. Just seeing if I can log in.
ParticipantWrite down your aperture and shutter speed for each shot in the roll. You can log this information in a little booklet. Then, when you have developed and are reviewing the photos, you can more accurately guage what works best in differing situations
ParticipantProbably too late, but I like the D50 or D70, but then I’m a Nikon Girl 🙂
ParticipantWelcome aboard Full Custom. I love your fark handle by the way. It always makes me think of Horton Heat. 😀
minor threadjack (forumjack?) –
the Rev is coming here at the end of February/beginning of March and i’m very very excited about it! i think it’s been two years since i’ve seen him – expect to see some shots from the show afterwards!!
/end forumjack
Awesome. I can’t wait to meet my first Farker!
i meant the Reverend Horton Heat is coming here – rereading previous posts made me realize that that is not all that clear.
D’oh, how the hell did I miss that? It’s right there! I’ve never seen him live, but I bet it’s a great show. I’m really looking forward to the pics!
ParticipantI have taken a 35mm class, learned the darkroom basics, and I am now using my first digital SLR. How do I progress from being a novice? I understand (in a ‘book’ sense) photography, and I have experimented with my camera. How can I learn to determine, relatively quickly, the settings for my camera in a given siutation? What did you to go from novice to intermediate and beyond?
practice practice practice! bring your camera everywhere. be ‘that guy’ – the guy who is always taking pictures. your friends will get used to it. as you shoot more you’ll start to get a sense of your style – what it is that you really like when you see the end result. and the more you shoot, the better sense you get of what the results are when you try different things – great DOF, shallow DOF, second curtain shutter, long exposures, etc. set up tests – same subject with all different type of exposures. what does it look like at f2/8? how about at f32 with a shutter speed of 1/8? practice and play, you’ll start to figure out what you like and how you want to shoot. and it’s digital, so you have all your exposure info in the metadata and you have no worries about wasting film! have fun!!!
ParticipantSmith Victor sells a cheap kit with two hot lights for $115 or so. Also, don’t forget the Home Depot school of lighting. Cheap work lights on towers, fairly white, slightly tungsten on the white balance light. Take the wire mesh off the front. Can be had for $20-$40 depending on where you go. Just don’t burn your house down with them 😉
Personally, I use an SB-600 and SB-800 Nikon, with reflectors, filters, etc. Not as strong a studio flash setup, but I can take it anywhere, and the remote command is wireless, so I can toss the SB-600 in odd places for interesting lighting effects. I’ve taped it to things before, or I just have someone hold it for me sometimes.
ParticipantI was bummed. I submitted the theme and all I had was a shot of my freezer door… 😕
ParticipantOh God I love Kodachrome. If you haven’t seen the LOC’s “Bound for Glory” series, I really recomment it. FSA photographers shooting Kodaks “new” slide film.
