yahsemtough 0 Posted November 21, 2003 enough already! I almost want to go back to film. That must be a good camera you are using. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PauP 0 Posted November 21, 2003 Good looking shot Bob. At a 12" distance you must have used a fairly low power setting? Herb Ko's demos were 1/2 and full power. This shot proves the "Air" tests are misleading. I will be very interested to see The Wetpixel "Wet tests" PauP Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cybergoldfish 1 Posted November 21, 2003 Craig is doing them soon I think. Hopefully at night in his pool. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PauP 0 Posted November 21, 2003 Hey, did that fish just get closer? Pp Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cybergoldfish 1 Posted November 21, 2003 Ha Ha, no I just cropped it to point out any burnt bits. Shame about that thing sticking up by its tail though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
herbko 0 Posted November 22, 2003 Maybe a wide angle shot is a better measure of strobe uniformity. Taken with the 130 degree Inon dome lens and 2 Z220's on full power. This one is lots more impressive when viewed full size on a big monitor. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

herbko 0 Posted November 22, 2003 Thanks. Got tired of the "rules" of underwater photography: get close, shoot up, rule of thirds... For this one: backed up, shot down and centered the subject. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cybergoldfish 1 Posted November 22, 2003 rule of thirds... This is the one specifically for Lembeh - Look up before you ascend in case one floats past Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PauP 0 Posted November 22, 2003 I like what I see Mr Ko. Good example. Even coverage over quite an area, unlike the "Air" demos. Naked Guns or diffused? also can you remember your shooting distance from the Reef/shoal? Although this is a balanced or fill in type shot I would still be interested to see a totally strobe lit shot ie W/A night shot down onto sand. Thanks for posting it.

herbko 0 Posted November 23, 2003 Naked Guns or diffused?also can you remember your shooting distance from the Reef/shoal? PauP Both strobes had diffusers on. I don't remeber the shooting distance. My best guess is ~ 1m. Here's another one of the same rolling fishball. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
