That code worked for me when I pasted Moriath's (I think) pic off of Flickr a couple of pages back...

I thought it wouldn't parse the code if I put it in code tags as well. :(

Whenever I see ECA posting, I always know there may be an undercurrent of satire or a general piss take.

It's like when I used to cringe if I saw Wazz has posted, but now he's turned into a BIG GAY SOFTY.

I've kind of forgotten everyone. I only remember that I got a projector because of you and Monsters Inc.

Clown,

The mod has been broken by changes made at Flickr, hopefully a new definition will be made available soon.

Could attract new forums members by starting a Flickr group called "This Flickr group is for random Freddyhouse members photo spam".....

I've always been a big gay softy. It's just that some people take longer than others to realise this. :D

Is it me or is it really obvious where I've cloned something out here? (some of you may have seen the original in another thread)

M74 Spiral Arm Galaxy - the Moons too close to full and it wasnt captured in a lossless format but its a start I guess.

Content aware delete in Photoshop (CS5+) is the easiest way. It is surprisingly excellent with some really complex stuff.

Have you got the original pic?

How did you decide on what to buy? Was that all purchased new?

I know some RL photo nerds and it was all new yes.

I'm calling troll, if you didn't know anything about it you might ask for the advice before you bought it all. If all of that - Canon 5d (assuming mk2), EF 50 f1.2, EF 180 f3.5 and EF 70-200 f2.8 IS (assuming mk2) - was bought new you're knocking on the door of £6k (at least).

And that last sentence about the 70-200 doesn't sound like the more tech-savvy ECA that I've seen posting here before...

I am a TOTAL camera noob. Like utter. I should prob go on some courses or something as I don't even know the basics. My knowledge base on cameras is probably about the same level as Gok Wans knowledge base about the inside of vaginas.


Assuming you're not taking the piss with us...

The white lens is the one Deebs wanted but couldn't justify. It is a beast, very heavy and you should be able to get good zoom out of it, taking pictures of things quite far away. Take it to the zoo or something.

The small lens is a 50mm f/1.2 which would be good for portraits and general fuckery. I would probably put your aperture at f/2.8 or something while you get used to the depth of field. You will get massive bokeh (blown out backgrounds) but the plane of focus will be really thin so you might miss the focus a lot, even the distance between the tip of someone's nose and their eyes will make the difference. I used to use mine a lot when doing street photography as it as great in low light. It is a fixed length lens, so it will teach you the most about composition. You can't zoom with the lens; your legs are the zoom.

I don't know too much about the 180mm macro lens. Apparently you should be able to take close-ups of things.

Is the body a 5D mark 2?

How much did you pay for it all? I assumed you got it all second hand or off the back of a truck.

Either / or, this is probably the wrong thread for it all...

It's a mark 2, there were some more lenses and bits I didn't get in that pic but prob around 8-10k

lol @ ECA :D


:D

I did think it was funny to post a pic of all that gear taken on a shitty webcam :p

Well the funny thing about pictures of lenses and cameras is they are often taken on shitty phone cams because all the photography gear is in the picture. Something I've noticed on photography forums, really dreadful pictures of thousands of pounds worth of equipment. :)

Is it worth the upgrade from CS4 then? That's what I'm using atm. Sounds good... Yes, I do have the original... well, not original or full size as upload would be a bit large.

Clown said he does I think, I've dabbled in it but I'm used to Bridge and Camera Raw tbh.

That's after some tinkering with content aware delete, it's better but it's still visible I think (but perhaps only because I knew what was once there). It's lucky with the waviness of the wood that it doesn't really matter as long as the two sides join up.

Bump, this shouldn't be on the second page. Moriath, how are you getting on with Lightroom?

A quick few, it's getting too cold to walk around at night...

A pic a friend of mine with me took a few months ago in Hawaii. He's the camera nerd. It involved a tripod, long exposure and a funny lense thing. No editing required. It looked just like that, was amazing.

This kind of pic makes me want to save some dosh and buy a decent camera that's good for a beginner.. any suggestions ? Pretty sure it's been said before, but no idea where. I love landscapes and scenery shots.. :love:

edit: don't know how to make a preview thumbnail..

That 2nd pic is incredibly awesome clown. Nice shots mate.

Could be a pre-dawn entry?
