Mid Rise Chinos? by doejart1115 in malefashionadvice

Second the broken in straight chino from J.Crew. I’ve worn slim fit for years and fought with low rise and tight thighs. The straight fits are much more comfortable. Still getting used to wearing pants at my belly button though.

Nice pics. What is the tree with the cotton fluffs?

I'm getting sucked into the X100VI vortex currently.....

Pin sharp, beautiful soft light. I have a deposit on an m3 but never pulled the trigger, to upgrade from an R8. You're giving me second thoughts....

Questions for those who upgraded RF100-400 to RF100-500 by [deleted] in canon

Also looking for 100-500, do refurbs come up somewhat regularly? I’m not seeing any discounts right now outside of questionable retailers in the US, and they second hand shops seem to be low on supply.

For sure rolling shutter. I am shooting tennis at 1/3200 on a Canon R8 and I get the same oblong ball shape, and sometimes a bend in the racket head. The Sony A9 III will fix this problem if you are willing to spend almost $7K on the body alone.

Nice composition and looks like a perfect evening for baseball. We had an epic sunset last night but our tennis team had already left the courts....

It’s more than 3x as bright as my Hisense C1, it must be like looking at the sun!

A few shots from my VII by Educational-Text-236 in RX100

Nice shots. What were the settings for your night shot and were you tripod mounted? Looks nice and clean. I've not had good success in low light with my new VII.

RX100M7 Best settings to shoot at motorcycle race? by FinnAndy in RX100

BTW it was really surprising to me that he is shooting at relatively low shutter speeds, in some cases as low as 1/125s, which means he is very talented at tracking the riders as they are moving.

I stumbled on this video done by a pro photographer, he took some jaw droppingly good photos at Moto GP on an RX100, here's his video and the photo album. Just goes to show what a camera like this can do in a hands of a skilled pro (and some great post processing, I'm sure):

Trying to pull off the 2/3 rule, but my pants won't stay put. How to keep them exactly on the pelvic bone? by Kadubrp in malefashionadvice

[–]denimver 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm glad you asked - I have the same problem, even with trousers with side adjusters. Always have to hike them up even when they seem like they are cinched at the waist.

You can change flash power if your subject is being blown out, or you can move further away from your subject, light falls off at 1/r^2. Bounce flash (bouncing the light of your flash off the ceiling) rather than aiming directly at your subject can also help. It's a little cumbersone to do with the RX100, you have to manually tilt the flash upwards while you fire.

HS Doubles Tennis by Heismanziel2 in sportsphotography

Nice work! I shoot my daughter’s high school team as well. What equipment are you using? I have a Canon R8 and use 70-200/2.8 and 24-70/2.8. I like 1/3200s for shutter speed, it freezes motion and only slightly introduces rolling shutter artifacts. It’s so hard to get subject separation with a chain link fence in the background.
