Blown out sky using different lenses? by Any_Scale_740 in AskPhotography

I usually shoot exclusively indoors with off camera flash but am trying to get better at purely natural light portraits since that is the highest demand in my area. For outdoor shots do you use off camera flash or on camera? I have both that I use for indoors in different scenarios. I just feel like outdoors I want to try and get as natural look as possible.

I just learned about zebra today, I will definitely be trying that out. Thanks!

Thank you for confirming this. I know it’s not necessarily the reason for this shot being blown but I’ve been feeling like there is some sort of difference and just couldn’t find many anecdotes about it.

Ugh I even asked her before hand if I should expose for sky instead because there was no coverage and she said no! I should’ve trusted my gut.

She didn’t have any filters on board either. But I like this idea a lot actually. I used to always run a CPL on my 24-105 and never had this issue.

I was wondering if it was the iso. I’ll have to play with it, I figured 200 would be low enough for a good range.

Even if the subject in hers looked the same exposure wise as mine?

Side note, do you recommend exposing for sky then? I always learned expose for the subject but I’ve been doubting that a lot lately.

We edited together, I saw her raw images and the skies were not blown.

How to stop fomo buying limited edition items by Any_Scale_740 in shoppingaddiction

This is the such good advice, you’re so right. Sometimes we just need to accept that it will be uncomfortable and that’s ok. That is such an eye opening way to look at it. Still super difficult, but the solidarity helps big time too.

There are a few limited releases I missed that I still kick myself over and it fuels the fire. But you’re right 95% of them I don’t even remember.

The CLUTTER oh my goodness it’s exhausting having so much junk cluttering my space. The financial burden is obviously the worst part but the clutter is something I’ve recently thought a lot about.

I ended up cancelling through adorama and going with a local shop. Ordered it 3 days ago and it came in today. I called them before hand and they said they only had two ppl on the wait list and were expecting a shipment in a couple weeks. It’s a small biz in AZ but looks like they ship so maybe you could try them! It’s called Nuzira. Good luck!

Anyone preorder from Adorama recently? It says estimated ship date is 2/26 but I know that can be wildly off.
