plastic: ahh alright. a deeper depth of field means smaller aperture right? (f/2.8?) i shot this at f/5 cuz somehow those at f/2.8 came out alittle soft. but i will retry again! hahaha.
hobbesyeo: hahah yeah, lazy to sharpen my pencils.. :sweat:
oic.. from what i know, zoom lenses perform best at the middle aperture (f/5.6 ?).. im using a 28-70mm. mmm. im tired of reshooting this set of pencils. wahaha. change to crayons liao.eel said:For deeper depth of field, you should try to shoot with a smaller aperture which means a bigger f/stop number maybe f5.6 at least. Unless you're shooting with a prime lens, f2.8 usually a bit softer. As a general rule, I believe most lens perform better in terms of sharpness when stopped down a few stops from the maximum aperture.
BTW I liked them better when they were not sharpened:devil: :bsmilie:
yes he did! hahahah and i just realised that this is such a small world... well, i will be seeing you this sunday right?Leinaj said:Hi Simplicity, I tot that is a beautiful shot! Your first shot, just add a little bit more dof, resting the focal point somewhere on the lower right 1/3 and find a unique colour, the only one in the group to bring to focus. Perhaps that particular one could be the only sharpen one amongst them all.
Great shot ! :thumbsup:
btw did Autocratic speak to ya recently?
eh... i dont have a blusher brush, paint brush?plastic said:Why not place a brush among the pencils? Better still, those sable make up blusher brush. That would have a focal point. The other pic you took is a little better, but the lighting was not as good as the previous picture. Just my 2 cents.

mmm, you were refering to the 2nd pic? i used flash cuz it was at night so tried to bounce it around but abit hard to hold cam and the white card at the same time. :sweat: the first one (on top of this thread) was taken with lotsa natural light.. my mini makeshift studio is beside the window with good light.. heh.
