What camera are you using Rob? Were you using auto focus?
This is what I want to try nut I want to get a good mask and some sort of costume although I'm not sure I will manage to get it now. i have everything for lighting the scene up and a good place to shoot it.
Light Painting with LED's...
I've got an idea and half of what I need, I'm just not sure that I'll get the time to go out and find what else I need to do it, and have the time now.
Tricky theme...
Light room. Plenty of places to get it and it doesn't need cracking like photoshop as it never checks the code.
Adobe are doing a monthly payment system now so you get the software upgrades.
I've just downloaded the new photoshop and it is a lot further from photoshop 7 which I used a...
Hoped for a decent sunrise this morning. There wasn't one, but I did manage to fire off some long exposures.
This one is a 3 minute exposure, f/10, ISO 100. Sigma 10-20, Ten stop ND filter.

I quite like them.
I think some have been over edited (noticed the pink sticker on the splitter varies massively in colour).
I like the second and last the best though.
Am I going to have any problems with current program's do you think? Or should it be OK?
Mainly Adobe Light room.
Hopefully get to download it once I've finished work tonight.
A couple from playing with the Sigma 105 last night. Bloody cat moved while I was trying to focus on his eyes (manually)
Quite grainy too due to poor light so was shooting at 6400 ISO f/2.8 1/100th

Said cat thought it would be funny to move these...
Re: PS4 pre-order
Game told me I'd be getting the second batch and I Pre ordered about a month ago.
Some places (shop to, I believe) are saying they will be delivered on release day apparently.
I'll have a proper look at it tomorrow, although I've just looked in the store and it was the first tile that came up.
3.6GB though will take a while for me :(
Nope. Didnt make any saves like a dick!
I was also spending a s**t load of money before the assassination missions and I didn't get the most out of my final heist I dont think.
I was just lazy with one of the missions, I didn't let the stock go up enough and withdrew pretty quick, and missed...
Finish the game completely, let the credits roll.
I've finished the game and all of the assassination missions this morning.
Got about 120 mil with each carachter now. Cocked up one of the assassination mission investments.
Oh the 10-20 is a much better all round lens but it's 2-3 times the price so it's a bit of a compromise.
You have a bit of zoom with it, are able to fit filters to it and it's got auto focus although that's not really an issue with most things you'd shoot IMO.
The fisheye is fixed, no...
Manual focus and aperture settings (although most shots will be fine with infinity focus)
If you put it on a full frame, you will see a big black ring on the outside of the frame.
This is taken on a 550d (1.6 crop) so no black edges (if that's what you mean as fish eye/ normal?)
Liverpool...
My mate got one of these, was with him within 3 days!

The Opteka is a 6.5mm, full manual lens but its pretty easy to get to grips with. Had a play of my mates the other day (some pics in my Liverpool thread)
Samyang also make cheap fish eyes too.
The 10-20 is a fairly cheap lens in terms of wide angle, and got the best reviews when compared to...
Canon 55-250 ISII. You'll find it for under that if you have a look online. Brilliant lens for the money.
Unless you want to go wide, then there are Opteka fisheye's for around that price (maybe a bit more, depending if you get stung on import tax), from America.
I have just started the mission where you can choose between the fire engine and the helicopter route.
I've opted for the fire engine but got side tracked with a Tracey mission while I was storing a getaway car.
Hopefully I'll finish work handy to put some hours in to it later.
I had a play with the Xperia Z1 the other day and it looks a very good phone. The camera (as with most Sony offerings is superb) My missus has an Xperia S and she loves it. I'm just not overly keen on the Sony interface, although I could flash it.
I'll be looking properly around Xmas as much...
Cheers, Ben.
The ice cream van was lovely in the flesh. It's usually on the Albert Dock if you are there again. I had to keep it in colour.
I just wish that you could fit a ten stop filter on a fish eye. Definitely my next lens!
If you haven't found one yet, look on Dell but at their business section.
I got an i5, 500gb drive, 4gb ram for under 400 with delivery. I then bought another 4gb memory online and fitted it myself as it was much cheaper than upgrading through Dell.
Not had any problems with mine so...
Cheers Tom.
It was very yellow from memory but it could probably be toned down a bit. Plus, it's not the sharpest as I had wedged my camera in to one of the slots on the cathedral walls as I couldn't use my tripod up there.
I'll have another look when I get back on the laptop.
