DSLR Shots and Discussions

Santa brought me a Vello battery grip for the 5D MIII, a lens collar tripod mount for the 70-200 f4 IS, and an Oben lightweight ballhead tripod. Very good day! Going to do my first real shoot with the Z in a long time tomorrow morning. Pics to follow after edits.

The more I mess around with Photoshop, the less faith I have in advertising.
I mean, I knew this already, but holy crap is the liquify filter a powerful tool!

Oh yeah, its unbelievable what can be done in photoshop. I look at it this way, no picture you will ever see in legitimate, middle to high end advertising is ever not photoshopped.

I made a new, non-existent person tonight.
I felt like I was in Weird Science.

First attempts at star trails. I will probably be practicing a lot more of these.

A really crappy and cheap Sunpak one from Best Buy.

I caved and bought a new Lenovo laptop with an HD screen for editing. My brother wants me to take his engagement photos and I'd like be able to edit correctly.

Photoshopping is the way to go for advertisements. You should see what we do at work for Hasbro, really badass stuff.

Took a picture today of my bike before I start crashing it. Really wish I could use my canon 70-200 2.8 on the Nikon. O well this will work for now.

I didn't notice all the stunter kit at first.
Yeah, that bike won't be pretty for long.

They make adapters that would allow to use the Canon on the Nikon.

Luna if you think that one is pretty check out my other bike. This one I have actually been stunting for several months now.

redstarcg · 12-27-2014, 11:37 PM

Ohh man. I totally forgot! Gonna order one asap. It was nikon to canon that they dont make. I forgot you can do canon to nikon. If I remember correctly auto focus wont work with those correct? I also have a 2.8 24-70 which I miss playing with as well.

I may be totally wrong on this after doing some investigating. It looks like you can get adapter to use Nikon lenses with Canon cameras, but not the other way around.
Most of the info that I found was from a couple of years ago, so it may no longer be valid either. I'm not familiar with Nikon stuff, so I can't search specifically.
