Different light source

Most of the times we work with strobes or natural light and sometimes I throw in a lightbulb or two just for fun. However in this blogpost I show you a technique I sometimes use when I want a bit more “freaky” stuff.

 

But first…..
I want to congratulate our son Brian on his 15th birthday.
Happy birthday 😀

 

Ok so the light source used in these shots is a wireless projector, choose a high ansilumen unit because even with that you will have to bump the ISO (depending on the patterns you’re projecting).

Sony A7r part I

A lot of times something is released (or announced) and the words revolutionary, best in it’s class, world chancing etc. are used to make people more interested in the new product. Most of the times I have to be honest that I’m disappointed, yeah sometimes there are some things that are really new and cool but most of the times it’s just the same “old” thing in a new jacket……

However when I read the announcement of the new Sony A7r I was going like “oh…. I have to see that one”.

 

Now before we go any further I have to make something 100% crystal clear. I’m NOT paid by Sony, I’m NO Sony fanboy. However over the last year I’ve sold my Canon 5DMKIII for the Sony A99 and I recently switched away from my MacBook Pro to a Sony DUO 13, which I paid 100% out of my own pocket by the way. Sony did lend me a camera for this review and 2 lenses, but the review you will read today (and the coming days) are 100% my honest opinion.

 

Now why this disclaimer……
Well very simple because this camera is awesome and I wanted to make sure that you don’t think it’s an advertorial for Sony.

 

Let’s first take a look at the camera itself:
