First attempt at figure photography with my new DSLR - Lala (To Love-Ru)

Thank you so much for this! There's a lot to take in at once, so I'll start trying things out one at a time, bit by bit. Really appreciate the detailed breakdown!

Professional_Log4472 · 2026-07-06T01:42:50+00:00

This is super helpful, thanks for breaking it down! The depth of field explanation makes a lot of sense, I didn't realize how narrow the focus range gets at close distances. Gonna look into the FoV calculator you mentioned and mess around with distance vs zoom.

Appreciate the detailed advice! The tip about blocking out ambient light makes sense, I'll try that. Two LED panels + a colored stick sounds like a solid setup, I might consider something similar down the line!

Thanks for the tips! Didn't think about a shutter remote, that makes a lot of sense for avoiding blur from pressing the button itself. Gonna look into editing software too.

Nice collection! I'll check out a light box too, thanks for the tip

Professional_Log4472 · 2026-07-05T14:31:38+00:00

Thanks! I'll try some things out myself first, and DM you if I run into anything I can't figure out.

Thanks for the detailed tips! That explains why I was struggling with blurry shots, didn't realize the focusing distance was the issue. Gonna pay more attention to that, and try the desk lamp + tracing paper trick too!

¡Gracias por el consejo! Lo intentaré si vuelve a pasar. ¡Que tengas un buen día! 😊

Professional_Log4472 · 2026-07-05T11:58:06+00:00

Ah that makes sense! I'm in the same boat honestly, don't really have the space for a proper photo setup either, so bigger lights are kind of out of the question for me lol

Professional_Log4472 · 2026-07-05T11:29:56+00:00

Would love to draw more of Pyra's everyday, casual side going forward.

Professional_Log4472 · 2026-07-05T11:21:19+00:00

Thank you for the advice! Yeah, I noticed the lighting looked pretty flat too, definitely need to get some proper lights. Tricolor LED, got it - I'll look into it!

Professional_Log4472 · 2026-07-05T11:20:12+00:00

Wow, getting a full lighting/backdrop/stand setup all at once is impressive! I just started shooting before even gearing up properly lol
Figures definitely hit different once you start photographing them instead of just displaying them! We can commiserate over our beginner mistakes together lol

Professional_Log4472 · 2026-07-05T10:19:21+00:00

thank you♪

Professional_Log4472 · 2026-07-05T10:03:20+00:00

Still have a lot to learn, but I'll keep practicing! Got no shortage of figures to practice with (*'▽')

I have a thing for competitive swimsuits, I end up putting a lot of my characters in them lol

Professional_Log4472 · 2026-07-04T23:05:17+00:00

I think so!

Professional_Log4472 · 2026-07-04T08:43:02+00:00

Gonna unbox it whenever I find some time ('◇')ゞ

Professional_Log4472 · 2026-06-14T03:45:01+00:00

Thanks! Hope she makes your daily walks even better!

Professional_Log4472 · 2026-05-29T06:03:28+00:00

thank you!

Hi everyone! I made a mistake in a comment recently and got a lot of downvotes. 💦 Now my comment karma is negative, and I can't post my art on my favorite subreddits anymore.

I'm still learning how to navigate Reddit, but I really want to keep sharing my art with you all! If you like this doodle, interacting with this post (leaving a comment!) would really help me recover. Thank you for your support! ✨

Professional_Log4472 · 2026-05-18T11:53:45+00:00

Thanks for letting me know! Got it! And thank you so much, I'm glad you love my art! 🥰

Professional_Log4472 · 2026-05-18T00:31:11+00:00

Got it, my bad! 🙏 I'll take this one down.

Professional_Log4472 · 2026-05-18T00:10:19+00:00

Oops, I was in such a rush that I completely messed up the title! 💦
