Quoted TextQuoted TextThese days I actually use modelling as a break from / bad weather alternative for my main hobby - fotography. There are some limits to how much rain/snow/cold a DSLR (and it's carriage/operating module aka ME) can take before it stops working (The C/O module likely less than the camera(1)) so that is when I get building.
(1) After all camera and lenses are weather sealed
MBR, my DSLR's C/O doesn't work well in the elements either!
This is a hobby I would like to invest more time in, but I've found that my wife has a pretty good eye for composition, and gets the shot she wants with far fewer clicks of the shutter button...
Me, I'm definitely not the old school, I've only got 24 exposure's on my last roll of film, kind of shooter. I'm more the Apocalypse Now guy, shoot everything and sort it all out later....
I probably have 2000 pics of the Kapalua Plantation course I played in 2008, on our trip to the Island's. every single one of them is a masterful image, in my head!
Same here. I am working hard to get the "one shot - one motive" thing into my head. But just to be save I also got myself a Canon body that does 7 pics/sec for 25 RAWs Helps a lot when taking pictures of tjosting knights.
And when taking pictures of scale models the "shoot-view-correct-reshoot" option of a DSLx is really nice (as is a quick live view)
Do you spend a lot of time photographing Knights jousting?
