RE: Continuing Testing Long Exposures

in #blog8 years ago

Omg.... that second photo! B&H photo is a shop?

Yes I indeed got a Lee filter, figured it would be a better long term investment. More flexible, I already dropped it once...

Thanks for the tip, I forgot that indeed

LOL - I was saving the second image to use for your contest down the road, but I figured I share it now with you.

B&H in the United States is the most popular and largest photo / video / audio store. They are have a huge online presence and their brick and mortar store in Manhattan is HUMUNGOUS. If you're ever in NYC - you must go there. Actually make it your last stop as you'll go broke on your first day if you do so.

I forget to cover the viewfinder sometimes too. My old Nikon D700 had it built in. Why Canon doesn't do this is beyond me.

One last tip - do your best not to scratch it as it's a $150 piece of glass!

Haha, you can still use it. I am a sucker for things like symmetry and repetition and such.

Yeah I tend to avoid visiting shops and when I do I do my research beforehand so I do not make any impulse buys.

I will try my best not to scratch or drop it, learned my lesson immediately :P

Oh boy! Close call - but that's how we learn - by making mistakes. When I teach people photography, I tell them early on that if you're not making mistakes - you're not learning.
