This is the kind of threads I like. I spend more time on three non-photography forums in the photography threads than I do here because it is mostly oogling over each other's shots rather than critique.

Couple more from my little ole Fuji...

Flowers

Manual, 1/1000, f/3.5, ISO64

Aperture priority, 1/280, f/3.5, ISO 400

From a walk in the woods with the kids, found this guy in the shadows with the light shining perfectly on him.

A few of my favourites from a "cyclocross" I shot last weekend...

...and that'll be quite enough pimping for one day

Man, those are great shots and just look at that gear list. One of the most maligned bodies out there... well, sort of. I mean, how many times have we heard "if you can afford something better than the D40, get it"? Heck, I've even said something similar in the past!

Your shots rock man, they have a very professional quality to them. And there you are shooting moving subjects with a camera that has 3 AF points and look at those results. Beautiful.

Here's a shot from this summer, taken July 17th. This is another model from Model Mayhem.

Camera: Canon 5D Mark II
Lens: 70-200 f/2.8L IS
ISO: 100
Av: f/8
Tv: 1/125
Flash: Alien Bee B800 with large softbox.

This was shot on the Indiana Dunes, on the shore of Lake Michigan. The lighting that day was quite challenging as I was shooting in manual mode and the sun kept popping out from behind cloud cover screwing my settings up.

Nice shot. Face seems slightly soft. On a side note, I envisioned Mr. Sun poking his head around a cloud and an arm reaching out and turning the knobs on your camera.

30D
1/100
f/4.5
ISO 100
12mm
Shot with the sun setting out the window to the right and a WL1600 with a giant octabox above me and to the right slightly. I was laying on the floor. Not bad for just a 30D and a Sigma 10-20.


5D MKII
1/800
f/3.2
ISO 1600
24mm
5D MKII and 24-70 f/2.8L. This was in a steady rain about 5 minutes before the fire department showed up. Little water never killed anyone. Oh, and this looks like ISO 200 on my 30D :mrgreen:


5D MKII
1/250
f/2.8
ISO 6400
135mm
ISO 6400. 'Nough said.


5D MKII
1/200
f/6.3
ISO 100
24mm
Shot in a decently lit room without any mood. One 580EX II with a set of barndoors fixed that. And who says wide angle should be avoided for portraiture.

Is she really that thick in the mid-section or is that the 24mm at play?

That's actually the dress pulled up and bunched up in her hands.

Thank-you! I'm not sure what to say to this other than ... you were right about your points in the first post.

I would say the same about your photos, but I believe it's implied

Hehe, I guess I shouldn't say anything about her head being flat.

Just ribbing ya VI. The shot looks great.

Most people will say that ISO 400 is not usable with this camera, and that the 55-250 lens is crap, but I think these are pretty decent, looking at color/contrast/sharpness...
