I shoot with a 7D, I played with a 5DMkII for a few minutes a while back and it just felt right. Ever since I've been acutely aware of the crop factor

My wife and I don't really want kids yet, but those photos are awesome. On the other hand, I just got my Canon lens cup. I don't drink coffee, and I prefer to drink out of glass so I think I'm going to plant a cactus in it and keep it on my desk at work.

My nanna is 82, has a digital camera and uses Picasa to import and then email photos to everyone she knows. About once a week the whole family will get 67 photos of her dog, her living room, her backyard and my grandfather dozing on the couch.

Hooray! I was asked to shoot a xmas party/boat cruise. They wanted me to shoot for about 6 hours and then join in the party, and they wanted to pay me $1200. Then the company's CEO got a $9500 bill for overseas phone/data usage because he just had to play with his new iPad while travelling and has decided that they don't really need a photographer for their party

I liked going to see bands and collecting my tickets, then I started seeing bands where all I'd get was a stamp on the wrist. Purchased a Konica Z10 in 2004, shot with it for about 18 months before upgrading to a Canon 350D. At first all I knew how to do was take photos of bands, for anything outside of that I was pretty much on auto. In the last couple of years I've done a lot of reading and experimenting, but I've still got an absolute shitload to learn. The more I learn, the more I realise I suck

I don't think you understand, all you need to do is lend them your camera and they'll be able to take awesome photos with it. Sheesh, why are you being such a jerk about it.

Took my camera along to the office xmas party (there's around 50-60 of us), consumed a lot of booze and took photos during the night. Shared photos with the office on Monday. Got an email from one of the department managers "Mate, not criticism, just a minor comment to consider. X, X and X are not in any of these photos but the bartender working for the bowling place has 4 photos…" Now let's get one thing straight, I took photos of the round of shots the bartender was pouring for us - as you can see in the picture below, the subject of the photo is obviously the alcohol - not the bartender. Additionally I wasn't being paid to cover the event and there was no law stopping anyone else bringing a bloody camera!

I'm telling you, I've used the "they came out bad" excuse before and people are always understanding. Then you look like you try to maintain the integrity of your work, which anyone can sympathize with, rather than just not giving a poo poo because you're not getting paid. gently caress office politics. psylent fucked around with this message at 01:22 on Dec 17, 2010 |

Good news! New guy at work is a keen photographer, shoots with a 5D Mk II and wants to go out on shoots with me. Bad news! He showed me his flickr stream and it's full of garish HDR and selective colour bullshit.

I've run into a couple of people like that. All it takes is time and they go back to making good stuff. To be totally fair, he does have some nice stuff, but his love for HDR scared me a little.

I'm going to Japan in late March, I have no need for an X100 but maaaaaaan do I want one. I'm putting any cash I earn from photography aside to pay for a 5D MK 2 and I'm at the $1000 mark right now. That cash could easily disappear. psylent fucked around with this message at 05:57 on Feb 10, 2011 |

I'm doing a photography course at the moment to try and become more well rounded, this week we're doing still life and I am finding it to be boring as poo poo. I'm forcing myself to shoot a couple of things a day and I'm going to attempt to recreate a couple of "classics" to try and get my head around it, but in general I just find it dull and lifeless (hurr). I don't see a lot of still life in the Dork Room, is anyone into it?

poopinmymouth posted:Brad has done some kickass stuff. The key to getting a lot out of "boring" homework assignments is to find the part you like about them. If the arranging and styling of it is boring, try focusing on lighting, or post work. Try to see if there is items you would have fun with. I do find the arranging and styling part pretty boring but I do like playing with lights, so that's what I'll do.
