Nice stuff from those tournaments.

And I love the 5D iii. I’ve used pretty much every major camera from the past couple years aside from the 1D iv and the 5D iii is my favorite. When I’m seriously shooting a sporting event I’ll probably go back to a D3s but the 5D iii will do just fine when I need it and for everything else it’s exactly what I want. People can pixel peep and complain about tech specs all they want, but the 5D iii truly is an incredible camera.

And here’s a frame from a track practice yesterday:

Went to Lexington on Saturday to get some Final Four reaction photos from fans and it ended up blowing up into a full-on riot. Sold some images to AP which have been floating around and Wired did a Raw File post featuring my work after I went back on Monday and shot that stuff as well: http://www.wired.com/rawfile/2012/04/kentucky-wins-but-students-lose-in-basketball-riot-photos/

Recent weekend at Lake Travis…

I collect hot Wheels. I’m about to retake photos of my entire collection to upgrade from the low-res photos I had before I got a T3i and I wanted to take pics at a new angle and this is what I’ve come up with for 2013.

Canon 5D MKII with a 40mm 2.8 Pancake lens and i forgot which filter ( red or yellow ). some post PS work involved

spideyman · 2013-01-01T05:16:46.000Z

so i’m new to photography and i just got a new camera for christmas. i’ve been trying to watch as many videos and read as much as i can to learn some basics. out of these 2 lenses what one do you prefer? the canon EF 50 mm f/1.8 II or the 40 mm EF f/2.8.

del1rium · 2013-01-01T06:24:08.000Z

The 50mm f/1.8 will give you better low light options, being 1.3 stops faster than the 40mm f/2.8. That said, the 40mm is nice and small, so if portability is key that’s something to consider.

If you’re brand new to photography, I would recommend picking up Understanding Exposure by Bryan Peterson … check your local library, too, as it’s often available. That’ll get you off to a good start in understanding how to use shutter/aperture/ISO and that kind of stuff.

And pretty much anything regarding composition (be it for photography or classical art forms) will really help you step up your photography beyond just taking snapshots. This is a great presentation on composition, and you should be able to take a lot away from it even as a beginner.

spideyman · 2013-01-01T07:50:05.000Z

Thanks for the tip. Are their any sites or forums I should check out for tips for beginners?

If you want to pick up on the basics of a manual camera quick, all you need to know is what Shutter speed, ISO and Aperture does. If you understand what happens when a value is changed, there’s not much to really “read up” on then. After that, I’d look at how other people take photos and analyze what makes it different from plain ol’ snapshots.

The only downfall to this methodology is that you simply become a mimicker and cannot create something truly outside of your “box”. Other than the few angles I use for taking photos, my creativity hits a very noticeable plateau.

spideyman · 2013-01-09T20:55:35.000Z

Any good places online to buy the 50 mm 1.8 lens for canon?

del1rium · 2013-01-09T21:08:16.000Z

Most legit places are going to have the same, or very similar, prices. Normally an advocate for buying used equipment, but the 50 1.8 is pretty much the cheapest lens you can buy… so used isn’t going to save you much money. B&H is usually my go-to.

Last post was 2 months ago? What timing.

High Park last weekend. Cherry Blossoms and shit.

Original res found here.

Yep comments and suggestions welcome. I don’t know what exposure length or ISO I should be using. I tried a bunch of random numbers and just never remember.

KOFKula’s Elgato came in today.

I started posting a FGC pic a day to my facebook page. I already have changes and upgrades planned for 2014, but I’m always looking for more feedback.

I’m in the market for a digital camera, I was wondering if anybody could recommend me a decent digital camera for the outdoors in a hot ass, sunny, and extremely dusty place?
