$90?! Even I have more than that & I think I'm broke, but I'm not too far off from $90. =/

Yeah, I threw a ton of money at some cards the other week, not realizing I had some bills coming up :nails: . Oh well, I've got 3 paychecks coming and a bonus on the way, all before anymore bills are due. I'll have a good 3k in the bank by the end of the month :D.

I think it's time to pick up some filters and maybe some hoods. Does anyone have any recommendations on them? I know I should pick up a UV filter, but how about hoods? Are they really worth it? I have one for my zoom lens, but haven't really noticed a difference.

I might even pick up a 24mm f2.8. I could use a basic wide angle lens :ponder:

I have the same question. I've asked some people, but never got a real answer. Hoods aren't exactly inexpensive either, so I want to know if I'm actually dropping cash on something that actually has a purpose.

Edwin said he likes them because if you're shooting something moving and you bump your lens into another person's camera, it's just the hood that gets hit and not the lens itself.

Well my zoom lens came with it...I just leave it on because it makes the lens look bigger :rofl:.


I have another question regarding wide-angle lenses. I have an 18mm-55mm lens, so if I get a 24mm WA lens, would there be any actual difference between setting the focal range to 24mm on the zoom lens and the wide angle lens?

I made that more confusing than I needed to. Basically, if I take the EXACT same shot with the zoom and WA lenses, will they ultimately be the same? I never used a WA lens :(.

hahah People always stare when you have a DSLR with a zoom lens and a hood. It automatically gives the impression that you're some sort of professional photographer.

I do the same thing, the hood (on my 2.8) just makes it look that much cooler imo, but if its either of my walk around lenses i usually dont have a hood.

as for the wide angle (anyone feel free to correct me on this) but they should visually be the same (what you see through the hole). i could imagine the only diffrence would be is that if it is sharp, its aperture (specified lenses usually have alot lower apertures than zoom), etc. that would make it diffrent.

A lens hood should be used to reduce flare and to a degree hot spots caused by it.
Its also good to have because it protects the lens face glass even more. Drop the lens, break the hood not the front ring!!!

Only time not to use it is when you use the on board flash. If you use it then, you will have bad shadows.

oh but the longer the hood make sure its wider or you will have BAD vignetting, which I think looks horrible!!

oh but the longer the hood make sure its wider or you will have BAD vignetting, which I think looks horrible!!

The hood I have on my zoom lens is pretty big, but I've never seen any vignetting. I'm guessing as long as you use the intended hood, you should be fine.

I did the same thing once. I managed to live off $74 for 2 weeks.

The weird thing, I haven't been even close to being short on cash since I got this job last November...and all of a sudden, I'm broke and everyone I know is broke right now. I wouldn't want to know what it would be like if the credit crisis actually affected me :nails:.


Back on topic. Someone who has a wide angle lens, can you take a comparison photo for me? Two identical shots, same aperture/shutter speed/focal range. One with a wide angle lens (not fisheye, I hate fisheye and it's too much money) and one with either a standard lens or standard zoom lens?

I just want to get a grasp on what to expect with a WA lens. I only have 8 and 12 months before my two trips to the Caribbean next year, and I'd like to have a versatile set of lenses.

Also, does anyone think buying the 18-55mm kit lens W/ Vibration Reduction would be worth it? It's the exact same lens I have now, but it has the vibration assist. I want a decent lens for low light situations (which I have now, 50mm f1.8) that also isn't zoomed in so far.

I just got an external flash for my Nikon D70, and its AMAZING!! you can take some sick ___ pictures in pitch black rooms...its pretty wild.

I would post the original size, but if the wife found out she'd kill me, LOL

i like the first one but the glare from the sun kinda draws ur attention away from the surroundings.

$90?! Even I have more than that & I think I'm broke, but I'm not too far off from $90. =/

Weren't you saying not too long ago that your going to buy an evo and that you had the money right now and that you could afford an is-f and things like that?

Just sayin :P

No. I never said I had cash in hand. I plan on getting an Evo X (or 135i) AFTER I sell my tC. The only reason I'm somewhat broke right now is cuz I paid off my tC (over 2 yrs early might I add). Why are you even trying to ruin this thread by causing drama? That has nothing to do with this thread anyway. Take that to PM or don't say anything at all if you wanna try and bash me.

Y'know; just sayin.

You've been PMed. And im not bashing. the smiley face was a hit it wasnt. oie. jokes just dont work over the internet.

omg i need to try HDR. only software i have for editing is iPhoto tho. SUCKS big time. can't even downsize the files from what i can tell. I need to get something like PS or Aperture 2 for the mac

Try Photomatix, it's pretty good and straight forward. You can get the trial version, and I believe all it does is leave a watermark on your finished product if it's not registered..

i use photomatix which is free and photoshop cs2

everything is free lol

I should take some pictures with my newly acquired flash.

i am thinking of getting limewire but i am afraid of the spyware and stuff it might put on my mac.

You can adjust the picture size in iPhoto. Just hit edit and go to crop. If you want the full picture, just drag the box to the entire image, then either select the size you want or enter in a custom size.

How the heck do you change the settings on Photomatix? I downloaded it & my pics came out like crap, all grainy and it was just ridiculously bright when my pics weren't bright at all.

i heard a program called "noise ninja" was good. Anyone else heard of it or use it?

Tina, I can help you with Photomatix

i heard a program called "noise ninja" was good. Anyone else heard of it or use it?

i heard alot of good things about it, but i have yet to try it myself. i know its a plug-in for photoshop but im not too sure if its a stand alone program though.

theres another program called neat image pro, but idk how to use it yet

supposedly its good for removing the noise from pictures

ERRRRRRRR. ED, MAKE ME A CD OF ALL MY PHOTOSHOOTS WITH YOU THEN! Yes? Okay, good, that's what I thought.
I'll have to see what comes back with the hard drive. I still don't have it back. Robert, in a couple of weeks please!

thanks mang! its an Achiever 260AF flash that I acquired from my passing grandpa. It says for Minolta on it, but it works with my Nikon D70. I also have another flash too which has way more range than this one. Havent had time to try it out yet.

very nice flash... i like the clerity of the shot too.... (borat voice) - Very niiiiice

Welcome to the Battle of the DSLR's!

In the right corner, we have Pedowin. A seasoned P-mode pro sporting the Canon 40D, he'll bury you in pics of t&a's!

And in the left, we have The Five Feet of Fury, a new member to the DSLR world! Very aggressive for her size, she shoots with a Canon XTi!

Who will win?! Only one way to tell: PHOTO BATTLE!


(yes, I'm bored, but it will be interesting to see Tina's and Edwin's pictures compared)

damn p shooter that's a baller lens u got there

as far as the rig goes, its custom I pieced it together from bh photo, like I said I just need to pick up a wide angle lens now.... hopefully my girl gets me it for xmas lol

call me a geek ... but that looks like a 70-200mm vs a 50 f/1.8. lol

call me a geek ... but that looks like a 70-200mm

GEEK! :rofl: :P

Yeah, you're right. Tina's shooting with the kit lens though.

and that wouldve been my next guess.. lol.

and thanks.. i am a geek. hahaah xD

I was somewhere!
:?

Haha, I was switching lenses throughout the whole show so I'm not quite sure which one's on there at the time.

p.s. my arm looks fantastically muscular in that photo. ;D

i heard a program called "noise ninja" was good. Anyone else heard of it or use it?

Isn't that like an oxymoron? "noise" and "ninja"? Or is it just me? Joe....your team lost by two cars for team rep this weekend. How come no one from SD came up?

Anyways, I worked on 1 pic last night from the Team Sciontific Show using a few tips from Ro Ja. Thanks dude!

i wish i had some more to blow up my camera set (40d, 24-70 f/2.8)... but i just "invested" in some more guitars .. lol xD

"seasoned P-mode pro" - AWESOME line. haha. i suppose its better than being a Great Green Box Shooting Pro.

actually, thats a lie, i really wouldnt.

I almost believed this until I read the tiny print. hahaha Besides, I was just saying if you keep changing your lens in the open you will get dust on your sensor. I was not takin' jabs at your consumer level lenses. So relax and don't get furry on me.

i wasnt impressed by the models at image
It's just a matter of what type of taste you have. We all have an idea in our own minds of what we think is good or bad. Everyone has different taste so it's all good.

EWWW EDWIN

EWWWWWW what? My hack job or the subjects? both? hahaha

both :P

hahaha bastard

FYI, the XTi has built-in dust cleaning software/hardware whatever it is.

Seriously though. What on earth were you trying to do in that image?

selective coloring?

So should I delete the pic to save this thread the embarassment or keep it up to show how shameful a 15 minute photoshop hack job looks and no one should do it in the future? ha.

Shiyet...I need to get back to work.

Your "selective coloring" was about as bad a tctctc's "focus on random things" photoshoots. :rofl:

Pick one thing to highlight instead of a million smaller things. It really distracts the viewer.

Here's one I did for my friend. (she just gave me the photo, so only the editing is my work)

I only have one...What would I change it to anyway???

Going to my friends wedding type of deal, any suggestions on taking some pics ? I have a XSi the only time I put it on manual settings is when I am at the tracking takin pics of cars. I have no idea about indoor stills any tips or links I can read up on ?

Tripod.

Odds are, the lighting isn't going to be the best inside, so without a tripod, flash-less shots will be near impossible. I'm not very good with flash compensation, but I'm sure that could help some if the flash is overpowering (if you need to use the flash).

HDR...

http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3073/2936580596_d3b636fa94.jpg

^ That's not HDR. That's just HDR style editing.

Just wondering if a sony cybershot dsc-h5 would count for this thread? New to photography here and just kinda gettin started with it.

No. It's not an SLR, it's a point and shoot.

is there a how to on HDR?

is there a how to on HDR?

Google it, you'll find something.

Basically, you take multiple shots from the same location of the same thing. It's pretty much impossible without a tripod. 1 shot needs to be under exposed, 1 needs to have normal exposure, and 1 needs to be over exposed (equal to the under exposed shot). Exposure compensation helps a lot with this. Then you use software to combine the images.

Also, HDR shooting isn't just taking a shot and doing the editing. This is something a lot of people don't understand, and I made the same mistake when I first started to try to do HDR shots. HDR = High Dynamic Range. The shot needs to have a vast range of colors and have great emphasis on shadows and light.

This is HDR.

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/d/d5/Trencin_hdr_001.jpg

damn, my eyes hurt after looking at that!

nice, but it looks like something from the night before xmas (the movie, but i didn't want to look up how they spell it)

What program do you use for HDR? I downloaded PhotoMatix but I can't get the darn thing to work.

What ISO's did you shoot at to get your photo to turn out like that?

HDR isn't created from different ISO levels. You have to go in and change the exposure settings. It looks like a number line on our cameras. +/- looking like thing. It should go from -2 to +2. I have no idea how to change it though and I left my manual booklet at home.

Robert, I will punch you in the face then! Haha, you told me to change the ISO when I was chatting with you online about it! THAT EXPLAINS WHY MY "HDR" CAME OUT THE WAY IT DID! Pfffffft!

^ What he said.

Just set the camera on the tripod, and set it to a balanced exposure. Take a shot. Now set the exposure compensation to -2, adjust shutter speed, take a shot. Now set the exposure compensation to +2, adjust shutter speed, take a shot. Now add all 3 pictures to something like Photomatix, and let it do the work.

Robert, I will punch you in the face then! Haha, you told me to change the ISO when I was chatting with you online about it! THAT EXPLAINS WHY MY "HDR" CAME OUT THE WAY IT DID! Pfffffft!

I'm sorry. I was looking at a wrong tutorial. Google failed me. And I failed you. :( lol

This is the real tutorial.
http://abduzeedo.com/how-create-hdr-photos-hdrphotomatix-tutorial

I know with Canon there is no need to make any changes to the camera for each shot, unless you want more than 3 photos to merge.

There is an exposure bracketing setting inside of the camera. You just go into where you set the EV levels and rotate the dial and the single line will turn to three lines. THose three lines are now your three values. I set them far apart, then set the camera to a 2 second delay and to automatically take the three pictures one after another.

I will find the Canon tutorial for it.
My only issue with HDR is most people dont know how to edit them and they look like crap.

^ Same thing with Nikon. I just use +2 and -2 as a safety net to ensure it's the same exposure intensity. However, setting it to +2/-2 increases chances of moving the camera ever so slightly :tap:.

If you haven't done HDR, you'll find it very frustrating to keep the camera perfectly still, even with a tripod.

Tina, you have an XTi right?

Here's how you'd do it.

-Menu2
-AEB: Set it to -2/+2
-Set camera to delayed timer

Then it'll shoot 3 consecutive shots, one at each exposure level without you needing to touch the camera.


If you haven't done HDR, you'll find it very frustrating to keep the camera perfectly still, even with a tripod.I concur. :tap:

Just tried that and it turned out perfectly! Thank you so much dude!!

Nice upgrade!

Nice Vince!!

I found a guy on Craigslist selling a 28-105mm f/3.5-4.5, so hopefully I'll be able to pick that up soon. I'm excited! :D

hey roja.. hope you're getting a good price on that one..

http://www.photozone.de/canon-eos/189-canon-ef-28-105mm-f35-45-usm-test-report--review

i remember looking at it when i was looking for lenses.

Oops. I made a mistake. I originally wanted the 28-105mm, but I ended up finding the 28-135mm for sale locally for $300. It includes the lens, hood, uv filter, and case.

thats the lens i have on my 40d

id say do it, its a great lens, alotta focal range.

Teleconverters. Worth the money, or avoid and save for a real zoom lens?

Personally, I would just save up for a real zoom lens. It's like my car. "Do it right or not at all."

http://digital-photography-school.com/blog/the-pros-and-cons-of-using-tele-converters-extenders-on-your-dslr/

K, figured that would have been the case. I can still get a 70-300mm lens for a reasonable price, so that'll offer some more zoom power.

I think I might just sell off my 18-55mm and 55-200mm lenses, and replace it with an 18-200mm lens.

im looking into getting my 1st DSLR camera. Any of you experts got suggestions for a starter camera.

a rebel xt would be a nice start imo which is what im getting sometime soon lol...its not as expensive as the other DSLRs

im looking into getting my 1st DSLR camera. Any of you experts got suggestions for a starter camera.

My first was a D70 DSLR.. Worked out great for me.... You can find a used one cheap.

my Nikon D40 is amazingly easy to work with for me being a first time DSLR user.

All of these taken with a Canon Rebel XT w/ 28-90mm lens.

Damn, those are amazing!

I still need to learn how to use my manual settings. :(

Very nice indeed... Kiss Kiss, practice practice is all I can say.

^ Ditto

I've only been playing with my DSLR for about 9 months, and I only shoot in manual mode. You'll eventually learn techniques along the way, and you'll usually stumble across them without intention.

Yeah I just got mine this summer and shot on auto for the first month or two, now I'm full time manual for the past couple months.

Manual FTW!

I'll have some new pics to add soon. I'm going with Edwin (P-Shooter) to shoot a car this weekend. Oh, and I'm shooting with a friend around campus today.

Rules that I've stood by for shooting in manual mode...

Never touch ISO, always leave it at the minimum
Never use flash
Use shutter speed to control exposure
Use aperture to adjust exposure only when I need a specific shutter speed
Never rely on the LCD for picture quality
Take at least 3 pictures of everything
Never try to take a shot slower than 1/25 without a tripod

^^ good rules.. depends on camera and lens its ok put ISO high when you have no choice lol its gets noisy at 800 though on the xti, and also I shoot 1/4 even 0'3" without tripod and 0 shakes, that assuming the object doesnt move lol

You're right, but that's why I have multiple rules :P.

The only time I can possibly think of needing to use ISO, is when you're at the max aperture setting, and the shutter speed is just a tad too slow to capture a moving subject.

I also learned that 1/250s seems to be the magic number for rolling shots. It's fast enough to keep the car sharp, and slow enough to not keep up with the wheels.

Damn Shane those are some awesome shots!

Damn Shane those are some awesome shots!

Thanks bro...

Okay Carbon, since you mentioned rolling shots. What settings do you use EXACTLY to take a rolling shot at lets say.....3pm on a bright sunny day?

That can depend on where in the country you are referring too. One thing I had to learn quick is you cannot shoot the same in WA as AZ.....The amount of white and brown here will blow your mind away..and I aint talking skin color

broad daylight, you can set it at lowest iso and with shutter if 1000-1500 it really depends on condition.. TV option would be nice too during day time.. but a good time to take pics is during sunset or sunrise

Okay Carbon, since you mentioned rolling shots. What settings do you use EXACTLY to take a rolling shot at lets say.....3pm on a bright sunny day?

ISO minimum, shutter speed 1/250s, and then adjust aperture to balance exposure.

I am left speechless with some of the pics I'm seeing here. I never thought or currently think about artistically composing shots. The only thing I use my gear for really is to do event coverage. And we all know that can be done in P-mode without any problems. lol

Andino, Shane, Carbon, and Rock...you guys...um....."rock".

Manual FTW!
Yeah whatever. hahahaha

You're just grumpy you can't shoot in manual. :P

More pics coming soon! I'm uploading them now.

Canon Rebel XT is the camera and my lens is just the 28-90mm that came with it. I think that maybe a few of the pics I used a circular polarizer but not on all of them...

...and of course some of them are edited and for that I used Paint Shop Pro X2

Shane, stop editing them so much...

Shane, stop editing them so much...

A few of them are HDR images, that's why they look really edited...

Yea, but they're not shots that should be used for HDR. It's not just an editing technique, it's also about what you're shooting. I explained it a few pages back...

thanks man....i also used photoshop to enhance the quality of the pictures

do yall do alot of in camera editing or 3rd party (Adobe, Flicker, ect..)? I only adjust color balance because on some shots, especially indoor shots i never get the right color. Other than that its only resizing. ive been thinking about getting a color balance card or something for my shots? IDK?

i usually do the same as well. although I have been dropping the brightness a notch or two and kicking up the contrast a notch or two. Nothing extremely major...

white balance is key.

Typical editing in photoshop for me consists of levels, curves, hue & saturation, and sharpening.

x2 it really brings out the color and really makes the picture better

i usually do colorbalance, minor sharpening, brightness, contrast, levels, and clone stamp...

i dont like to see my reflection on the car, so i clone it out.

like right here in this photo, in the original, u could see myself and the owner of the car on the reflection of the door:

I need to learn to use curves...I've seen some amazing shots where the only editing done was curves.
