My blog, although I don’t see myself as a blogger but as a Photographer I will try to blog some interesting material during the weeks.
Expect at least 2 updates a week.
New York Day 1 Sony A99 and Fuji X-E1
Ok today the first update on our trip to New York.
On the 20th I will be teaching a seminar at the MAC group (see yesterdays blog post) but that also means I have a few days in New York to test two very interesting cameras, Annewiek is filming some material we will use for “The DOORhof is always open” which will feature a review of both cameras, but today I already share some of my thoughts and the first results.
The images in this review are mostly shot with the A99 and are in random order.
New York is great, it’s a streetphotographers paradise, or as Scott Kelby once said “It’s like the circus comes to town, only 24/7/365”. So which city is better to test out two very interesting cameras, the Sony Alpha 99 and the Fuji X-E1 with the 18-55 zoom lens.
Free webinar on the 20th
Today an invitation to a special webinar.
We are on our way to New York where on the 20th of November I will be teaching a very special 1 hour free webinar for the Mac group about Medium Format in fashion photography. See the link here for more information http://www.macgroupus.com/webinar/mamiya/MamiyaLeaf-Webinar-Invite-11202012.html
Lenaa during the glamour workshop
Yesterday Lenaa was our model for the glamour workshop.
The glamour workshop is always a special workshop for me, I’m a 95% fashion shooter and teaching a glamour workshop is something else completely. What I hate is the glamour where it all boils down to one thing… yeah I don’t have to explain this further right ? 😀 So I always try to make the glamour shots we do during the workshops a bit more special. And with a model like Lenaa it’s a big joy to do this workshop. Today some of the results from yesterdays workshop.
Gear used :
Sony Alpha 99
Zeiss 85mm 1.4
This was actually the first time I used this combination for a complete workshop tethering into Lightroom 4.2 and must say it worked flawless. The most amusing part was maybe the responses from the students when they looked through the viewfinder… “It’s like being in a terminator movie” well it actually does feel like that with all the info in the display, of course you can also “clean” the display up and only show the focus points and the image, but I love to see what’s going on. And this is something I really like from the EVF in the A99, you can customize it a lot.
