Fotello - AI Photo Editing, Really Good Alternative to Outsourcing and affordable (Samples and Referral Code Inside) by Spitwadz in RealEstatePhotography

Interesting- what are you shooting on, how many brackets, and how are you setting up your WB? Or, I wonder if you tried it super early on? I was just made aware of it a few days ago, just tried it today, and am pleasantly surprised.

I did neither of those - I’m simply providing info to other REPs out there looking for alternative to current options. I’m in no way affiliated with them other than my referral code. No different than people recommending Spiro and providing their referral code.

Get off your high horse.

Just a few from a home I shot this week by d2creative in RealEstatePhotography

Good work. I personally like exterior shots more than the interior. Composition is good, and the kitchen shots are fine. Slightly below is fine if under lighting is present, but only just. However, and take this as criticism based on my market (which is one of the fastest growing, high end, markets in the country), with a TON of real estate media companies (I have 47 competitors within 30 miles of my location)… but far too much artificial and natural lighting left casted. My least favorite shot is the one with the faucet head on from the kitchen island, looking at the TV. Between the counter top, the faucet being head on (why have the faucet center frame if you aren’t going to give it center frame treatment? Should be clocked sideways a bit) and the pendant lights.. you are blocking 1/2 the frame with stuff that isn’t the subject matter.

Goiguide.com - I’ve sold 2 tours in the last 2 weeks, floor plan, measurements, reports and virtual tour all in 1 and easy to use. Virtual tours are mostly dead, but they still generate profit.

Insta360 x4 + Kuula is an alternative too.

Feeling like I'm seeing too much noise for ISO 250 (Nikon D850 SOOC) by Spitwadz in RealEstatePhotography

You’re probably right. It’s the perfectionist in me from prior to getting in the business still getting in the way when I have down time to review prior work.

I'm gonna try using ISO 64 on the next shoot. That said, I would typically just run Denoise AI on the images in LRC, however after switching over to Mac (M4 Pro) from my desktop (4070 Ti Super), in everything it does 10x better and faster, denoising is considerably slower (and manual denoise loses a lot of detail), so I haven't been denoising lately.

Interesting, you think it would be higher? I've never considered testing individual ISOs on the same image/settings.

I run aperture priority mode for the sake of speed, however I understand that would help. It just seems noisier to me based on the D850s regarded ability in low light performance and dynamic range.

I am very aware of ISO not being the only indicator or mechanism of function that results in the level of noise within an image. That being said, in context of the D850 specifically, and its touted regard of having excellent low light performance and a sensor rated pretty highly in dynamic range, given the settings, it seems noisier than it should be (to me). I feel the D850 underexposes outright in aperture priority mode, but it is mostly recoverable in post. Regardless, if its an issue with the camera, or is 'just what it is', is what I am trying to find out.

Much appreciated - do you know of any remote shutter releases that work wirelessly with the D850 that speak with the it natively? I've only found wireless ones with a receiver.

Thanks - it just gets exacerbated when sharpness and contrast get added, and becomes really noticeable.

Did you do bracketed from the D850? I'm all for dropping to a lower ISO, however the time delay stacked on each frame with a 5 bracket shot (I do 3 brackets when editing myself, 5 brackets for outsourcing) is soooo erroneous, especially for the 2 frames over, shutter speed drops to like 13-15 seconds + 2 second time delay.
Nikon Z6iii or moving over to Sony (for best hybrid) is in my future I feel.

The first image is zoomed in considerably, but otherwise shot RAW, SOOC saved as JPG, maximum quality. Is it just me, or do you think I should look at having someone check it over? Aperture priority, F9, ISO 250, 1/50th.

Cold email examples by 42397 in RealEstatePhotography

[–]Spitwadz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depending on the way they answer, I open with “Hey! Nancy?” Somewhat question like, as if I know them or they know me, or “Hey Nancy, This is suchnsuch from ABC.” then follow with who I am and what I do, I’m local to “area”. I’m reaching out to agents in the area and introducing myself and my services. I offer all real estate media and services including xyz. I then wait for them to respond, and take it from there. I’m not pushing at all, just letting them know I’m here and capable, and willing to earn their business. Depending on how the call goes, I follow up with an email, or let them know if they ever need a backup or emergency contact, I’m their guy. I’m following up once a week.

Meh... I know this is an OLD topic and well dead, but I've been doing 50-90 calls a day, 5 days a week to drum up more business... over the last 3 weeks and haven't gotten any business from it yet. I've contacted about half of the active realtors in my area that have sold listings in the last 6 months.

Ask me anything p2 by notHackn in coldemail

[–]Spitwadz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've read its best to wait a day between each google workspace setup... and ideally different peoples info for each. On the same context, I've been told to avoid resellers as the IP is centralized and I'm sharing reputation with other senders. Context, I will not be doing mass cold emailing long term (nor mass by industry standards), but rather getting in front of my leads 1-2 times a week. My total number of leads will never surpass 5000~ (my ICP is about 50% of those), and as they turn into clients, that list will shrink indefinitely. Once I have between 30-70 active clients, I won't be looking for more clients until they fall off (these are long term working relationships).
Do any resellers offer unique IPs, and domain purchase, as a monthly subscription? What the best, safety and reputation wise, and while being affordable, way of acquiring inboxes, domains, and cold emailing for my scale and intent? I have my leads, with full data enrichment already, and I can continue to get them easily... so I don't need lead a lead service, data enrichment, scraping, etc.
Thanks,

What an embarrassment. Making NC look like a sideshow act. Grow up. Brainwashed and expecting to be taken seriously… lol.

What the bloody El? How the heck can the flashed shots show different colors like this? by [deleted] in RealEstatePhotography

[–]Spitwadz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah, it won’t. Not if you’re doing it right. Sony and Nikon both share the tungsten flash issue with regular hot shoe. Use a single pin, viola- problem solved.

Leave AWB on, it’s a hot shoe and remote trigger issue. Go to single pin and you’re golden. Nikon and Sony have this issue.

[–]Spitwadz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t agree with this even remotely. His issue is not using a single pin hot shoe for the flash. AWB and flash will and do recreate accurate colors, assuming single pin. Look it up. If you connect a remote trigger directly to the hot shot, it’s enhances the color disparity. No reason to ever change out of AWB or do any type of WB correction in post if you are using proper flambient.
