| Christmas Photos '05 | | Date Created: Dec 26, 2005, 04:20 PM |
We spent Christmas Eve at my parent's house in central New Jersey this year and I was able to take quite a few photos. I've updated the Statues and Ricky galleries with a few of these, and made a new gallery for Christmas shots.

| Gallery and Equip/Software Update | | Date Created: Nov 29, 2005, 04:10 PM |
| This was actually the first batch of photos that have been through my new digital workflow using Apple's Pro Photographer software Aperture. The new software is pretty sweet (if a bit slow on my G4 Alu Powerbook), and it definitely does a competent job of replacing what I used Adobe Raw and iView Media Pro for. It also integrates fairly well with Adobe Photoshop CS2 for any heavy editing or composite work though I'll rarely need to do that for the majority of my shots which only need a bit of sharpening and color correction. Expect a full Aperture review in the coming weeks (along with the delayed Samsung 950 DVD player and Logitech Harmony Remote review). |
 I have also recently received my long awaited Canon 24-105L f/4 USM IS lens the other day. It was recalled a few months ago and my order for it had to wait, but I now have the post-fix version and hope to test it out over the next few weeks. If all goes well, this will be my new "walk-around" lens replacing the Sigma 18-50EX f/2.8. It will also take care of the range my Sigma 55-200mm used to cover. So along with providing sharper images, better color, and 3rd Gen Image Stabilization, it will also reduce the amount of lenses I have to carry with me. Then again, it's quite a bit heavier than the previous 18-50 and 55-200 due to the IS mechanism. I'm selling the two Sigmas mentioned above so contact me if you're willing to buy. They fit the Canon EOS EF-S system (not for full frame). |

 I finally lucked out with a very clear and crisp night (at least until later) and a nice partially lit moon. I was only able to get a full moon previously, and that phase doesn't allow for detailed crater shots. This time it was just enough lit side to get some great detail.
I used my 100-400L f4 IS USM with the 2x TeleConverter and Viewfinder attachment to allow me to manually focus better. It was of course sitting on my tripod firmly though the wind was blowing pretty briskly at times and I had the IS on mode 1. I actually took 26 shots but reduced it to 2 good specimens. It actually looked like I had a telescope instead of a camera with all the gear attached. With the 2x TC attached, the 400mm zoom became an 800mm, but lost the ability to autofocus.
Updates are in the Astrophotography/The Moon gallery. |
| Gallery Update Nov. 9 | | Date Created: Nov 09, 2005, 05:03 PM |
 This weekend was a relatively "ok" weekend for photos. The overcast sky on Sunday was great for birding but horrible for taking shots of NY, the Statue of Liberty, and Ellis Island from Liberty State Park. Instead I have one good silhouette shot during sundown and a few shots of seagulls (I don't know their types). I was also able to take some nice nighttime photos of NY using my wide angle in Weehawken. Updates are in the Cityscape and Animals/Birds galleries. |

| More details on Aperture | | Date Created: Oct 31, 2005, 11:51 AM |
 Rob Golbraith has some interesting insights into Aperture prior to it hitting retail. He goes into quite a bit more depth than what we've learned so far about Apple's Pro Photographer application. It serves as a great preview, though I bet we'll be seeing much more hands-on reviews by the end of the month. Check it out at Rob Galbraith's Digital Photography Insights. |
| LotusPalooza! | | Date Created: Oct 20, 2005, 04:39 PM |
 At my office interesting vehicles are sometimes used/featured in various shows. Today it was a set of Lotus automobiles parked out front. After the footage was shot for TV, I asked and was allowed to take some choice photos of these sleek cars. You can check out my new car gallery here. |
| Aperture | | Date Created: Oct 19, 2005, 01:42 PM |
 Apple's big announcement today included "quad" dual dual core PowerMac G5's, updated Powerbooks, and a new application for their Pro suite of apps called Aperture. This new app is geared towards the Pro Photographer segment and seems to be iPhoto on steroids. I'm still researching all the goodies this new Pro App has to offer but I'm wondering if it will be worth it's $499 pricetag... especially for someone like me who's already using iViewMedia Pro and Photoshop CS2 for my workflow. We'll just have to wait until November when it will be available (you can preorder now). |
|
| It's currently only listed in the AppleStore online and not the regular Apple website, but you can go directly to the Aperture info page here. |
|
| UPDATE: Academic discounts rock! $249 on Aperture Academic edition (no difference other than price and an "Academic" label on the About popup). |
| Weddings, Flowers, and the Moon | | Date Created: Oct 19, 2005, 12:02 PM |
 I've been taking some new photos lately including my wife's cousin Sheila's wedding. No I wasn't THE photographer for it, just a family member taking photos, though I did catch the attention of the actual wedding photographer who was a diehard film-only buff. He did have nice L glass. I wonder how his shots turned out.
I also took photos of the Moon and a Macro of one of my mother's Orchids.
Check them out at my Photo site. |
| A Few New Tools | | Date Created: Oct 13, 2005, 10:58 AM |
I've got a few new tools to help me with my photography and with my post processing.
|
 First up is a new lens, the Sigma 10-20mm F4-5.6 EX DC HSM. Most ranges for my photo kit are now covered and I needed an ultra-wide angle to fill that remaining space. I originally compared the merits/value of the Sigma 10-20mm vs. the Canon EFS 10-22mm. Though the Canon is highly regarded, I decided to go with the Sigma for this round mostly due to cost/performance ratio, but also because the Sigma would continue to work with Full Frame cameras if I were ever to get a new body in that format (with vignetting at the low focul length, but good performance at 15mm or so on up). After using this lens for a week, it has performed wonderfully. It's tack sharp through its range with no discernable Chromatic Aberation or vignetting at my XT's 1.6 crop factor. Of course there is some geometric distortion at the 10mm end of the focul range, but that is to be expected even for a rectilinear wide angle and hardly approaches the distortion inherent in a non-corrected fisheye lens. I have yet to take it for outdoor landscapes, so I'll hopefully be able to test that capability soon if the weather cooperates. Another good thing about this lens is that it shares the same 77mm filter size as the Canon 100-400L that I already have... which brings me to my next addition. |
 I have added 2 Circular Polarizers from B+W, a 67mm multicoated CP for my Sigma 18-50mm walk around lens and a 77mm thin multicoated CP for my Sigma 10-20mm ultra-wide and Canon 100-400L. I won't be putting these polarizers on all the time, but they will allow me to achieve better color contrast from blue skys and white/gray cloud cover along with the ability to dial in reflectivity levels for glass/mirrored objects (water in lakes/ponds/rivers, window reflections, reflection from chrome). Though some capabilities in many filters such as Neutral Density and Warming filters can be replicated in Photoshop, Polarizers are one type of filter whose effects Photoshop cannot duplicate. Circular Polarizers are necessary for digital cameras rather than the usual Linear Polarizers used for film due to the way the sensors capture light. These filters will definitely come in handy to bring out the colors in landscape and nature photography. |
 A brand new addition (just arrived today) is the Canon Angle Finder C. Basically, it's an extension for the viewfinder on my camera with a 90degree angle and variable 360degree movement. It's useful for low to the ground photos, waist level photos, astro photos on a tripod, or Macrophotography. For Macros, the built in 1.25x and 2.5x adjustable magnification will help me get a better center focus for my shots. I haven't had a chance to use it yet, but it will definitely come in handy. |
 For postproduction, I now have a Wacom Bluetooth Graphire tablet. It won't replace my Mighty Mouse or Powerbook trackpad for regular navigation (which is why I won't be carrying the "mouse" accessory for the tablet with me), but the pen interface will be extremely useful in Photoshop, Painter, and other art programs that support the 512 level pressure sensitive pen. With this tablet I'll be able to process my RAW photos with more precision and with a freer artistic hand. I've also enabled OSX Tiger's built-in handwriting interface called Ink. Though slower than just typing out text, once configured/customized (I set it to activate Ink using the secondary lower button on the pen for all apps), and once I got used to the gesture commands, it has a certain appeal when I want to jot down creative notes. I even tried it in iChat, but it's definitely slower than typing (at least for me). It has a built-in storage space for the pen, and with a long rechargeable battery life I can just carry the tablet around in my laptop bag with my Powerbook while leaving the large charger brick at home. Response lag is minimal compared to previous bluetooth interface devices I've used in the past (Logitech bluetooth mice). |
| Paparazzi at it again... | | Date Created: Oct 05, 2005, 09:55 AM |
 Lindsey Lohan was involved in her second car accident this year and both involved the Paparazzi. This time she and a friend were shopping in a clothing store and 30 photographers swarmed all over them when they left. She tried to escape in her Mercedes-Benz convertible but ended up hitting a van which hit a parked car while they were being surrounded.
Back in May she was also hounded by a photographer who collided into her car with his just so he could get some photos. That photographer was arrested for investigation of assault with a deadly weapon. That case helped Gov. Schwarzeneggar to sign a law Friday that called for a steep fine for assaults related to obtaining celeb photos. Unfortunately it doesn't go into effect until January 1st.
I know the photographers are "trying to do their job" but when that infringes on other people's capability to conduct their lives with a modicum of dignity and safety, that crosses the line. How many "Princess Diana" cases do we need before people come to their senses? I wouldn't mind some celeb photos in my portfolio, but only with their permission, on their comfortable terms, and without causing harm or possible loss of life "just to get the shot!"
More info on the latest Lohan incident here. |
| Game On | | Date Created: Oct 03, 2005, 11:26 PM |
 My wife and friends played the last softball game before the Autumn chill set in.
This was a prime opportunity to test out my new 100-400L.
Check out the photos in the Game On gallery.
I also added Geo-positional locations for these photos so you'll be able to use the Google Map enabled SmugMug "Map This!" feature. |
| Expedition 7 | | Date Created: Sep 30, 2005, 01:01 PM |
 With all my new photo equipment, I needed a new bag. My Crumpler photo bag will still be used for sporting events and for light travel, but I needed another bag for rugged hikes and longer term trips. It would also double as the primary storage for my photo equipment.
I ended up ordering the Expedition 7 model 5577 from Tamrac. It had all the customizable storage I needed, it's tough, and water resistant. It also allows relatively easy access to my camera which sits nicely at the top of the bag (better protection from rough drops). |
 It has plenty of cool organizational features including dedicated "wing" accessory pockets for memory cards which also has used/nonused memory card labeling flaps. The bag also has a nice storage system for tripods including a dedicated tripod foot pocket (in my case it will hold the folded bottom of the Gitzo Traveler rather than the feet since my tripod folds up smaller). There's also a big pocket to hold a jacket, towel or a spare set of clothes.
The straps are very well padded along with a weight bearing belt and lower back support to help me carry all my equipment with less strain. I can also add additional accessory pockets using Tamrac's MAS and SAS systems. |
| I Just joined the White Lens Club! | | Date Created: Sep 29, 2005, 02:41 PM |
 I made my decision for a super-telephoto to round out my collection of lenses and went with the Canon EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS USM. It's lighter than many 400mm and larger lenses, it has 2 mode Image Stablization which will be great for handheld shots, an Ultrasonic Motor for quiet operation, and it's "L" glass (stands for Luxury) which is the highest level Canon lens family in both quality and price. Most (not all) Canon "L" lenses have a characteristic white/offwhite finish. You may have seen Sports Photographers carry this type of lens around. It also comes with a hood and leather lined case.
I haven't taken any real photos with it yet, but I can't wait until this weekend when I can have a go with it. |
 I'm just glad I didn't pick up the Canon 400mm/2.8L which is a 14lbs. monster. It would definitely not have been very portable. Here's a comparison shot I found on DPReview (photo taken by Jason Hutchinson): |
 I also picked up the Canon Extender EF 2x II. Also known as Teleconverters, these adapters will multiply your lens' focul lengths. In this case it would make my 100-400mm into a 200-800mm. Unfortunately it also comes at the cost of some sharpness, contrast, and 2 full stops for the 2x. There's also a 1.4x II that most people prefer, but I specifically chose this one to do Moon photos, and long range/long exposure shots where I'd be able to live with the 2x' shortcomings. Canon Teleconverters can only be used on certain "L" lenses, but there are third party converters that can be used on most other lenses. |
| Oh well... | | Date Created: Sep 26, 2005, 11:19 AM |
Most of the shots I took with my friend's Sigma 175-500mm F5-6.3 APO were quite soft (blurry), even the ones I took using the POD beanbag to prop up the camera. If I were to get a lens of this focul length, I'd need a lot more practice and maybe Image Stabilization to make sharper images. The slightest beat of my pulse was enough to make the view jump. I was able to take a few ok compressed cityscape images of buildings across the Hudson River from a park near my office. Unfortunately there seemed to be very little NJ wildlife outside over the weekend, at least when I took photos... Murphy's Law at work I guess. I also took a few more Closeup shots for the Insects & Arachnids and Flowers & Plants galleries. Check them out here.

| My friend from work is lending me his Sigma 175-500mm F5-6.3 APO lens for the weekend. We've been talking (as always lately) about lenses and what we want to eventually get. I've been looking at the Canon 100-400mm L Zoom, Canon 400mm/5.6 L Prime, and the "Bigma" Sigma 50-500mm Zoom for Sports, Wildlife, and Astro/Moon Photography. His current 175-500mm is roughly similar heft to the others, though the 100-400L is a bit lighter, and they all have similar uses/focul lengths (though the Bigma and his 500 have more range). We'll see how it goes... hopefully I'll have some nice wildlife photos (at least as wild as you can get in Suburban/Metro New Jersey) from the weekend. |

When my wife went to get the mail today at her parent's house, she discovered this little fella. There was a huge web across the top half of the front door of the house with this 1 1/2" spider sitting in the middle. Night-time Macrophotography isn't exactly easy. I had to manually focus and keep most of the other settings at Manual as well to get the shot right. Thinking back, i should have used my 80/20 bounce with the reflector plate and diffuser attachment on the flash. Instead I kept the speedlite flash angled toward the doorjam. Of course I used my new Traveler tripod. I need to find some more colorful bugs.

| The Corpse Bride, Canon SLRs and Nikon Lenses | | Date Created: Sep 16, 2005, 01:31 PM |
 I'm sure you've seen the trailers for Tim Burton's latest flick, The Corpse Bride. Believe it or not, what you're seing is not a result of CGI animation, but the product of 24 off-the-shelf commercial Canon EOS 1D Mark II Digital SLR still cameras and Nikon lenses (using a NEOS adapter to work on the Canon bodies) and stop motion animation edited on Apple's Final Cut Pro 4.5. The amazing process has been detailed in an article in the Editor's Guild newsletter. The fact that they used the same cameras that some Wedding Photographers and Sports Photographers use for making a full length stop motion film is astounding! |
| Tri and POD | | Date Created: Sep 14, 2005, 04:58 PM |
| Well I finally got the replacements for my venerable old Velbon DF-ML10 tripod. I actually got two of them, one for cases where tripods will not be practical (for security or other restrictions). |
 For cases where a tripod isn't allowed, I've purchased The Pod. Basically a beanbag with removable filling and a camera mount screw on top, it can be used to rest a camera on a horizontal surface (floor, table, fence, etc.) or to steady a vertical shot by resting it on the side of a wall. It definitely beats just sitting a camera on whatever dirty surface you have available. More info about it here. |
 For my main tripod, I aquired the Gitzo G1155T Traveler tripod (for more info about it, click the name). For those of you who've read my latest Personal Finance Tip about hobbies and saving money, I didn't break my own rules. I was able to get this usually prohibitively expensive tripod for an obscene price (how cheap you may be asking? Let's just say I got it for SIGNIFICANTLY less than the original price... and no, I can't tell you how, suffice it to say I lucked out). One of its nice features is a retractable hook on the bottom of the central shaft that will allow you to steady the tripod with a sandbag or full camera bag when deployed, but it's retraction capability keeps it from snagging on clothes/objects when folded up. The shaft is also reversable so you can set this tripod for ground level use. |
 What's so good about this tripod? Other than the fact that it's made of magnesium and carbon fiber making it incredibly strong and lightweight, it's also one of the few pro level tripods that can fold in on itself making it only 14 inches. Despite its compact carry weight/size, it can extend out to 4.7 feet making it a full height tripod (for me at least). It also has adjustable/lockable legs that can be situated to fit the terrain (riverbeds, hilly inclines, etc.). With this tripod, I won't hesitate to bring it with me attached to my camera bag where ever it will be allowed. My only gripe with it is that the head that it comes with doesn't have a quick release plate. I could always get a Gitzo quick release adapter later on without spending a ton of money on a new head so that isn't such a big deal. |
| Composing the Scene | | Date Created: Sep 13, 2005, 11:46 AM |
I was a bit unsatisfied with how I just uploaded the US Open photos with minimal editing. So I recomposed some of the better photos from both the Sharapova and Agassi matches by selectively cropping the images. I think the galleries are much better now and capture the action as we saw it that day.

| Eyes, Eyes and more Eyes | | Date Created: Sep 07, 2005, 10:20 PM |
I've added a few new photos to the Eye series on my SmugMug site. I just received my Macro lens today so I wanted to try it out. I'm still trying to get used to it so please forgive the limited DOF (Depth of Field) which resulted in some blurry sections of the photos.
 |
| Prime Directive | | Date Created: Sep 06, 2005, 10:49 AM |
For the long weekend I took a few new photos of Ricky, the Ay Borongan 2005 Festival (for my wife and her parents), and some new closeup photos. Included in those closeups are a new statue, a candle, and the beginning of a photographic series focusing on Eyes. Check it all out at my Photo share site.
 |
| Now that I've had some time to play with my two Sigma zoom lenses, and after reading some forums online and a few magazine articles, I realize that to round out my photo kit and accomplish what I want to do with my camera, I need a few more specialized lenses. This time, for the quick AF and sharpness of focus, I'm going the Prime route. Prime lenses are lenses that have fixed focal lengths so they don't have some of the general flexibility of zoom lenses; however, they gain much in quality of the image. They suffer from less Chromatic Aberation (shifting of colors), Barrelling (geometric distortion of an image), and the sometimes slow or inaccurate focusing that are inherrent in variable length lenses. |
 One lens I've been looking at is the Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 II . One of the most affordable lenses that Canon makes (often at prices less than $70 street) it is also one of the most revered for portraits and indoor low light environments. Despite a cheap feeling plastic housing, the glass is high quality and it has a very fast Auto Focus. This will be the lens I'll use for most indoor situations at parties and for any portraits I take. |
 The other new lens I decided to order is the Sigma 150mm f/2.8 EX APO Macro DG HSM . I've been wanting to get into Macrophotography and have researched the many routes available. I could have used extension tubes, accessory magnification lenses that attach like a filter, or bellows contraptions for my current lenses to make some nice Macro photos. Since I knew I was going to get a dedicated Macro lens eventually anyway, I figured I might as well skip the workarounds and get a nice (but affordable) Macro lens now while the prices are still relatively low (currently there are rumblings that with the lowering of SLR body prices, the lenses are where camera companies are getting ready to recoup their profits... so prices have steadily started rising for Lenses and other accessories). The 150mm Sigma sports a nice HyperSonic Motor that is relatively quiet (like the Canon USM). The 150mm focal distance will allow me to take the Macro photos far enough from the subject insect or animal so it won't be scared away. Like all Sigma lenses, it comes with a hood to help block out extraneous light coming in from the sides. The reviews online of this glass has been glowing and the price from Sigma4Less is very discounted probably because I'm ordering the grey market lens (imported and missing paper/warranty papers).
Yes, I checked resellerratings.com before I ordered... Sigma4Less is actually one of the few (probably the only one) brick and mortar Brooklyn camera stores that is actually regarded as legit by the photography community (as discovered on dpreview and other forums). Beware of other Brooklyn based Camera stores... many are scam laden black-holes for your wallet.
I'm also on the search for a new tripod. My current ancient Velbon is good for tabletop and when on my knees on the field, but I need a nice new (and affordable) tripod that I can use while standing up and still be compact/light when folded. Though Carbon Fiber and Magnesium would be great, the price (upwards of $300+) associated with those materials for a tripod would be better put to use for other accessories for me such as lenses, filters or other niknaks. So if anyone out there has good experiences with tripods that are cheap (under $100 or so mark), please let me know in the comments, thanks. |
| Over the Rainbow | | Date Created: Sep 02, 2005, 09:49 AM |
 I've been examining the use of Colorspace in the digital photographer's workflow. I've been reading quite a few articles that talk about this subject and have changed my current colorspace settings accordingly. Previously I was using the default sRGB standard colorspace on my SLR, my Photoshop (and CS2) settings, and Colorsync/sRGB for my printer (an HP 8450). Now I'm using AdobeRGB for my SLR (only used when saving to JPEG not to RAW... RAW colorspace is set on the computer at ingest which in my case is...) ProPhotoRGB in CS2, Photoshop and ACR, and "Application settings" or Colorsync for my printer depending on where I'm printing from.
Essentially the standard sRGB colorspace settings only has a limited color gamut that is a fractional subset of what we can see. AdobeRGB has a larger color gamut, but is still limited to the amount of color information saved vs. what our eyes perceive. ProPhotoRGB has a much larger gamut; in some ranges of the spectrum it even surpasses what humans can see (can cause a bit of trouble when editing photos if not taken into account). Most CRT monitors and LCD screens are closer to supporting sRGB levels of color (higher end screens may support the larger gamut of AdobeRGB), but printing is where color gamut becomes important. Though most wet process printing services are standardized around sRGB, your inkjet printer on your desk can support a wider colorspace. All this to have the most accurate, saturated, and "natural" versions of my photos from capture, edit, storage, and print.
For more info on colorspace and why I chose the new settings I did check the following:

| The wonders of sharpening | | Date Created: Sep 01, 2005, 11:33 AM |
 I already knew about sharpening my photos with Photoshop CS2, but just realized that the settings I've been using were way too conservative. As a guideline from the National Association of Photoshop Professionals website (yes I'm a member of NAPP) I used one of their tip listings for using the Unsharp Mask filter and Fading the Unsharp Mask on the Luminosity Blend Mode. Unfortunately, the settings used by the tips are only good for resolutions about half of what my camera produces, so there was virtually no visual difference using those settings on my photos. Using some settings I learned from other sources and playing around, I realized what a difference it would make to step the settings up a bit.
As a result I'm currently updating my entire library of images and will have to update my SmugMug galleries when I'm done. So if you see the photos missing online, it's because they are in the middle of being re-uploaded. |

I have just finished going through over 400 RAW & some High Res JPEG photos I took at the US Open, edited them, and selected the choice ones. I ended up with 183 photos.
Check out the photos at the US Open galleries on my SmugMug share site:
I wish I had a longer telephoto lens. I saw some people there with big super telephoto lenses with barrels wider than my head and tripods over their shoulders. I was stuck with a 55-200mm up in the nosebleed seats. Still, the games were great and the view was good even from up high. Thanks to BigMike for getting us the tickets. Either way, I got some "ok" shots and the 8Mp resolution of my camera helped. I did get a few shots of the Agassi game a few levels lower in the stadium thanks to a helpful US Open usher.
I experimented on various exposure levels, aperture, ISO and shutter speeds and I think I have a feel on what works best for which situation in night sports photos. Of course only more practice will tell for sure. |
