We were mucking around the images of the HUG at SAM@8Q and came across this over exposed picture.
It was set for ISO 1600 when we started to shoot with the studio lights.
This should have been ISO 100 so technically it is 4 stops over .
Like Ken Seet said , the Phocus can restore mistakes like this .

Amazing restoration !

 

[pchong]

can you please show what were the adjustments made? 4 stops is amazing. In my own experience 2 stops is typical...but I have not tried 4.

Here are the Details on how to :-

The H4D 40 images are really very good .
High ISO is very good and the Depth and Tonal range is Best of the best.

Doubting Thomases can drop by shriro to check these images out .

Wow ! A H4D31 at the current H3DII31 price !
Its $ 18 k for the current .
The new one announced at Photokina would only arrive probably early next year
Also got news of a 200 megapixel Hassy coming .

Heard that with the new Phocus 2.6 the H cameras can be controlled from a ipod , ipad , iphone4 and ipod touch.
Got only Isamsung so gotta wait .
Anyone tried yet ?

 

[Sylvestri]

Some blogs are reporting a limited edition Red H4D - The Hasselblad Ferrari in Rosso Fuoco tranlated to be - Redfire. 499 pieces . Price for only those who need not ask.
Wonder if we will get to see one live in Shriro showroom . . .

 

[pchong]

Ha? I thought the announcement says 4Q.

Heard that with the new Phocus 2.6 the H cameras can be controlled from a ipod , ipad , iphone4 and ipod touch.
Got only Isamsung so gotta wait .
Anyone tried yet ?

 

[JacePhoto]

I wonder why they are doing the Ferrari limited edition thing? Hasselblad users need them to improve the firmware and the usage of the camera, but a red color Hasselblad isnt gg to do much to raise a photographer's profile leh. A real sports car would do a better job wor....

Still waiting for the app to be released on App Store.
I think they'll release Phocus 2.6 when Apple approves the app on App Store.

suggestion for next HUG meeting...

Outdoor, daytime shoot with model...showing ability of Profoto flash systems to be used outdoors in bright sunlight, overpowering sun, as fill, etc...

 

[sprewell]

Actually, I suggest Macro shooting with the HC 120mm Macro for the next outing. All of us bring one tiny object to the gathering and take turns to shoot haha.

 

[Axeleaf]

Can incoorporate both suggestions .
Also suggestions of Chalet with compound for bikini girls being sprayed with water . . .
Anyone can help with chalet , girls , barbecue , water . . . please let denis know.
