5 Seconds Rule

I was reading a online magazine and came across an article which seems interest.
The 5 seconds rule.

It seems to best time to capture movement is between 4-6secs. Thus, the 5 second rule.
Fast moving subjects will be almost invisible in the frame which the other subjects will give the picture the element of movement.

Method suggested.
1) Tv priority 5 seconds
2) Tripod or on a stable footing
3) Low ISO to reduce noise
4) Remote shooting or Mirror Lockdown

And there you go, picture perfect, or so it seems =)
Will try once I have time and chance

Some more Pictures from Melbourne

These are some of my favorite pictures from Melbourne.

Try my hand again on HDR. However, I forgot to use AV priority when taking the bracketed shots. Nevertheless, I am still happy with the results.

Portraiture

I want to try my hand at portraiture again soon.
I was reading my Digital Photo Magazine and there were some tips which I want to try.
I am hoping to achieve the B&W with some shadows kind of portrait.

Anyway I look this picture of a friend i took...time to find friends who like pictures to let me have a crack at it as well as find time to do it.

I think i have less time for my photo projects these days, working is starting so I better start reading my manuals!

I love Black & White

Somehow, I always love effect that Black and White gives.
I still need to learn how to see black and white, and what type of pictures are suitable for B&W, but right now, I just process it as black and white the way I want =)

Anyway just came back from 2 Weddings. Took tons of pictures!

Underwater Photography.

Underwater pictures and videos are surprisingly clear and good.
However, there is that lag i mentioned when you press the shutter.

Olympus Stylus 1050 SW Reviews

I had my hands on the Olympus 1050SW as one of Christmas Presents.
Only used this camera twice, once during my friend's wedding and once when I was at Sentosa.

I like the feel of the camera. I like the black matt finishing and the stainless steel side give me a very well built solid impression of the camera. It is little heavier than most digital camera and it sinks. ( since it is made to be used in water it should have come with a floating strap so it doesn't sink)

As for the lens, it 6.7mm to 20.1mm f3.5 to F5.0, equivalent to 38mm to 114mm on a 35mm camera. That explains the slowness of taking a shot. Also I feel there is noise is quite pronounced at high ISO and that the flash is a little too harsh.

I will post pictures soon taken on different location and underwear.

Meanwhile this is the detailed review by Dpreview
