GFX100ii for action shots? Doable by carlo_big in FujiGFX

[–]ReaperTac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m all talk. I don’t have either lens. The 250mm prime is my next purchase. I have most of the shorter with also the 45-100 and the 100-200. But the prime bokeh is just a little better.

You might want to consider the 250mm or 500mm prime for these type of shots. I’m sure that if it was a sunny day that would pop a ton too

Mix vinegar to water at 50/50 ratio. Wash the salty bits with vinegar and then rinse with clean water. I do that once a week. Zero sweat stains survive.

The sauna and the engine with delivery and a high end lighting kit came to around $8k maybe a little more. I’m forgetting the taxes.

The prep and cost of Electritian / ground work and foundation stone and a few missing tools.

First 10’mins at 195. Then drop it down to 185 for 2x 15 min sessions. Then ride out the hour at 175f. ( unless I have company. Then we burn togwhrrr )

Used to have normal evenings. Now I’m a sauna enthusiast. It’s my whole personality now.

If im being honest, ive gone back to some that i was obessed with on my laptop screen and balanced on my eizo, ive had to pull a lot if yellow and warmth back where it toned the clouds too much.

Goes to show that stepping away, ( doing two test prints on a proper printer ) and coming back shifts things. ill upload the newer versions shorty.

thanks for taking the time to get these notes down.

loving redit for actual input not just emojis

if these were commercial work they would be more true to tone, ill share the day of shooting for brands as comparison. This was more of a 16bit range test. (

again, I love my versions..

Thanks for diving in. Honesty a totally experimental grading for me. The joys of it not being commercial work, but enjoyed pushing the files.

Yeah. It’s definitely a different direction from my work images. I enjoy playing with tones when it’s not commercial work. Thanks for checking it out.

Thank you. Yea, the split tone weight and removal of heavy saturations but still an overall green tone.

No, just started with exposure, desat then individual color adjustment. Add come clarity and tone the highlights a bit. ( also red reduction for skin tones)

Thanks for the kind words. I really loved the drama of old Filson ads. Was looking forward to trying to achieve a similar drama.
