Just wanted to hear your reactions: http://www.chrismaness.com/backend/misc/diego2b.jpg > Just wanted to hear your reactions: > http://www.chrismaness.com/backend/misc/diego2b.jpg Hello Chris, the Picture is maybe too unsharp and crispy... In my opinion the main Part of the Picture is the Boy and not the edge of the screen...but this edge is sharp and not the boy. i Know, it is a difficult light situation, but what did you use for a f-stop and ISO speed ? Maybe this could be the problem :-) Greetix, Stéphane.

I like the camera, but I think the rangefinder is off. It seems to be consistantly focusing behind the subject. I think I will go back to using my canon with my f/1.4 50mm prime. > I used 200 speed @ f/2 > > The camera is an old Yashica rangefinder that will do f/1.4.

Hello Chris, yes if you have focused on another part of the picture, your rangefinder seems to be out of focus...but you can adjust it with a screwdriver...canon is not the same as MF :-) What for I have no explanation is the lot of grain...200 ISO ist not too fast and grany for modern film emulsions, what did you use for a film ?

I think it is a little baked from the hot car. However, I like the grainy look. That is kindof what I was going for a really rugged available light grainy shot, but I guess the out of focus part is too much to stomach for people to get it. > Just wanted to hear your reactions: > > http://www.chrismaness.com/backend/misc/diego2b.jpg When photographing people the eyes should be in focus.

Yep, I noticed that right off, but I didn't know you couldn't get a little creative with where the focus landed. >>>Just wanted to hear your reactions: >>> [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > Yep, I noticed that right off, but I didn't know you couldn't get a > little creative with where the focus landed. You can, but for this kind of snapshot it won't be very appealing. okay..now I have read through the replys...rules are made to be broken right...and of course with all art-it is in the eye of the beholder! > > > Just wanted to hear your reactions: > > > [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > Yep, I noticed that right off, but I didn't know you couldn't get a > little creative with where the focus landed. Hello, without reading anyother replys and giving you my reaction-I love it! it has an old time feel to it, I like the grainy soft effect-not all photos warrant pin sharp focus. I use a Sima soft focus lens to get my grainy soft effect-its one of my favorite lenes to use, especially when photographing kids! I will read on for more info and opinions! Be well! > Just wanted to hear your reactions: > > http://www.chrismaness.com/backend/misc/diego2b.jpg > Hello, without reading anyother replys and giving you my reaction-I > love it! it has an old time feel to it, I like the grainy soft > effect-not all photos warrant pin sharp focus.

Wow, your the only one that liked it. Everyone else seemed to dislike it. > Just wanted to hear your reactions: > > http://www.chrismaness.com/backend/misc/diego2b.jpg Not sure of what was your goal, but the idea of enhancing the lights and the control on the videogame, and render the child in that way, doesn't look bad to me. The attention is still on the child, but being it out of focus tells me something anyway. Ciao Duca V |
