Stealing a Moment

Sneaky photographer!

One has to "steal" many moments to afford that gear.

It's just a cheap rubber case on a Canon Elph, with an aftermarket strap.

It's not D800 ? But looks GOOD, man !

 

[amolitor]

Oh, I just made that up It's probably a D800. I just thought it was funny to imagine it as an Elph in a special case.

That would be good business idea.

A lens hood indoors? Now I've seen everything!

I've seen photographers coming over to check out each other's gear, like dogs circling each other at a dog park. So I've put some tape over most of the obvious marks and changed the strap to a no-name brand, and there're really no easy way to know exactly what I've got - and it's kinda amusing to see the way the other photographers kinds circle you trying to decide if your stuff is more expensive or less expensive than theirs!

I'll tell you, with all the mirror balls and glitz flashing light, a lens hood was a must. This guy had every lens I think Nikon makes. I saw him around the ship more than a few times and each time a different one, and all of them primes. His stuff looked pretty good, ala viewfinder so I can't knock him too hard.

Shoot with hood at all times.

 

[timor]

With digital always with hood (it was in the kit). Hood looks very professional.

 

[ceeboy14]

Curious as to what you think of the post processing B&W treatment. I worked hard to separate the photographer from his subjects, each quite vague in its own way.

 

[.SimO.]

I always have a hood on. After my first fashion show event, never again will I go anywhere without one attached. Worse than Walmart on Black Friday and always remember the most important thing, no one cares about your equipment except you.

The branded strap with my camera seemed flimsy and anyway was too short to wear across shoulder. So I use an old banjo strap in a jazzy weave, good and strong and a nice hippie touch.
