OLD Cameras Still Crushing It in 2024 - Here's Why!
Просмотров 1,8 тыс.20 часов назад
Here are two cameras from the past 10 years that professionals could still use today. Image quality is just as good as when they first came out. I test out my Micro Four Thirds Olympus EM1 Mark II with the twin kit lenses and the Canon 5D Mark II. Both professional cameras in their day and still going strong. Take advantage of the huge reduction in prices of these once professional cameras. OK....
Ford Mustangs: Leica 25mm F/1.4 & OM 50mm F/1.4 Retro Photography
Просмотров 34614 дней назад
I took both my F/1.4 Lenses out this weekend. The Panasonic Leica 25mm and the adapted Olympus OM 50mm F/1.4 - Not that I needed the extra light but the shallow DOF was great to focus in on certain aspects of the cars or just to get a cool full frame look to the photo. Just like the older Mustangs from the 1960's, my favourite would have to be the OM 50mm Retro classic that I adapted onto my Ol...

    Roberto one thing you should probably do is give sweet Jerry a boatload of probiotics specifically for dogs. It should help with his problems with diarrhea. The diarrhea was oribly caused by the antibiotics used previously. Surely Jerry was on antibiotics after his surgery. It would be helpful if you can consult with someone about a better diet for Jerry. We will all pray for Jerry and you. God Bless.

  • @RS-nq8xk
    @RS-nq8xk 4 дня назад

    Recently started using an Olympus (OM-5), HDR jpgs seem to work better if you fiddle with exposure, so highlights don't appear to clip much. With this method HDR2 can lead to desaturation (probably due to color noise from shadow pulling) but it seems to pull a lot of shadow brightness when compared to typical single shot jpgs.

    • @robdido
      @robdido 4 дня назад

      Yes. I started doing the same thing too. I found dropping exposure comp slightly made the brighter shot better. Played around with it till I get an even spread. Yeah I like hdr1 better. They can turn a bit mushy but with Olympus it's not that bad actually. 👍
