They say L lenses do that to you lol! True story.

The wifey got an idea last night so we shot this:

6spd do you have a studio at your place or you actually have a studio location?

Really like the back light on that one.

6spd · 12-18-2014, 02:21 PM

I don't have a studio per se. This was done at home in my living room with a white foam core board as the backdrop and I retouched the gray tile floor. I use gear that is easily transportable, so while I don't have a physical studio, I like to think of it as a traveling studio cuz I can set up shop pretty much anywhere. For instance, I like speedlights vs strobes cuz I dont need power outlets or expensive battery packs, are easier to setup and are lighter, Beauty dishes and umbrellas vs big soft boxes, etc. This shot took literally only 5 minutes to set up.

You got that right. I originally bought a 7D kit and an extra lens until my brother gave me the 70-200 F4. I immediatly returned the extra lens and sold the kit lens.
Pricey, but there's no comparison.

Same thing happened to me, with that exact lens. Now I have 7 lenses and 6 of them are L's

If you can, try the sigma 18-35 f/1.8, its incredible! 18mm at 1.8 looks totally out of this world!
