bought an 8" monitor, an Ikan V8000HD. it sure is nice to stand back and focus!




edit: after a few shots, makes focussing so much easier. with my eyes, a great thing!





edit 2: after many tries now, my keeper rate is so much better. my next mission is to take it outdoors, once i find a bracket so i can attach it to my camera somehow.

the monitor comes with a hot shoe mount, but of course my flash unit occupies it. in the meanwhile, last one:

For you aspiring portrait photographers. This is what was considered cool in the 80's. Don't make the same mistakes!

Whoever made this has no knowledge of journalism. The photojournalist was probably on a deadline to deliver a photo of a potential story that had to be submitted ASAP. The fastest way to do it would be to take the image on the phone and send it right away to the editor. Shooting it on the SLR and going back to the car to fire up the laptop and send it that way may take up too much time. For a newspaper printed at about 72dpi, a smartphone camera is more than enough.

^^^ That too! Haha..

....except photojournalists do not own their images, so posting on their personal Facebook would violate their terms of employment.

It looks to be a fantastic lens, but the price......

You can buy a Nikon D800 & a 500mm f4 VRII and have change left over to buy a few more lenses...or a Canon 5DmkIII & 500mm f4L IS II and a few lenses, although the new super-telephotos are more expensive than the previous versions from both Nikon & Canon.

D800 + 400mm + crop probably does just as good.

^^^ For image quality, yes, but I think the A77 is a more responsive camera.
