Pinhole Wedding?

[Derrel]

I :heart: You, Derrel. I find great comfort in your predictability. :hug::

I heart you too Bitter. Your predictability is also comforting: this wedding gives you an opportunity to make it all about "YOU", and how "creative" you are. Plus, it allows you to address your Daddy issues. The idea that you can show the world how creative you are, and how wrong your Dad was must bring you immense comfort. Kudos. True to form for you!

I think the idea of the pinhole might be of some interest to members of this forum. but to the average non photographer they will look like crappy blurry pictures. As a second shooter you are part of the professional team at this wedding and you should approach it that way,family or not

It's great to see that any idea, no matter the exerience of the source, is the middle of so much discord.....driven by the passion that so many folks here have for their craft. Since such discord happens w noobs more frequently, its REALLY funny when it happen with "senior" members (since the "seniors" know what they're talking about). TPF holds true to form....a value source of insight and entertainment! (where's that popcorn icon!!)

AMAZING! CREATIVE! ALMOST IN FOCUS! GOOD LIGHTING WITHIN THE THREE FEET THE FLASH CARRIED!

DO YOU DO WEDDINGS? I'D LOVE TO SEE THIS SHOT WITHOUT FLASH! CAN I GET ALL OF THE SHOTS ON A DVD FOR $39 ?

HOW GOOD WILL MASSIVE 4x6" ENLARGEMENTS LOOK?

LOL.

You sound like someone who had their cheerios pissed in and wants the rest of the world to suffer along with you. Your thoughts on the subject were shot down and now you look like a child.

Cool! The level of hatred in this thread is impressive. Truly inspirational!

I think the pinhole wedding idea is neat. That's what I'd be tempted to do if I could stomach weddings.

You could also increase the focal length by building a makeshift extension, something simple like a small light-tight tube that attaches to the body cap.

Just curious, but do you know what the measurement is from sensor to body cap?

I saw a website where a gauy made a pinhole zoom lens that was pretty neat.
The measurement from the sensor to the pinhole is 60mm +/-

Derrel, I'm curious - do you have a beef with pinhole photography in general, or do you just object to it being used for a wedding? If it's the latter, then is your objection based on the belief that he is going to shoot the entire wedding through a pinhole lens (which is false), or do you simply believe that pinhole photography has absolutely no place at a wedding whatsoever?

I'm honestly trying to understand your feelings on this, because, quite frankly, your attitude thus far has been really incongruous with the general tone of the rest of the thread.

I've always hear that close association with people, i.e. living in the same house, spending a lot of time together at work etc. etc. would make your menstrual cycles coincide, but never.... NEVER has it been so eloquently illustrated as it is in this thread.

Wow.



Get yer camera, shoot the wedding, post your results.

My curiosity is peaked. :mrgreen:

And congrats to your sister BTW.

I'm late to the party so can someone tell me who/what it is I'm supposed to hate?

Derrel's just one of those guys that you suck out all the information about photography that you can, and then throw the rest of the package out. Because past photography facts, there's nothing there.

Get drunk, actuate shutters, win at life.

Is this a quote from someone else, or your own? Either way, I request permission to put it in my signature.

EDIT: F*** it, every other bugger has it now, so I will too. I'll credit you for it.

AFAIK I coined the phrase. Can't say I've googled it though for any level of confirmation. Because, well... I just don't give a ****. So feel free to use it. :thumbup:

EDIT: LOL WUT ACRONYM DECODER IN NEW VBULLETINNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN

Do you know Derrel personally? Either way, I think that was uncalled for! Derrel is entitled to his opinion like everyone else here.

At your choice:

• very small holes;
• "wise mom" Derrel because too much prudent;
• "crazy dad" Bitter Jeweler because too slow in taking pictures during a wedding ;
• me because too much out of focus,
• anyone here because too much out of topic
