Just to add on. My Nikon actually has this function that takes pictures on set intervals. I'm not sure how it works coz I've never used it. But it's there and I assume the same is available for Canon. Or Pentax.

should have on pentax, at least for k20d.

And of course, there's me ... somewhere behind the camera ... the Dingaroo!!! LOL!

If could identify who is who ... would be great! (Anyone need me to teach how to fill in the blanks? LOL!) I think by the time we had this picture taken, close to 35% - 45% had left us for other commitments Thanks for coming nonetheless! Sorry you couldn't stay for this

Once again, thanks folks

Cheers!

Thanks for organising, left pretty early due to other commitment. Hope to see you guys again

I like this one, seems like you were standing low in the water.

I was lying on the last step, and held my camera just inches above the water :sweat:

 

[ZeRoCoOl]

Sleep???? That's a definite plan

May consider either one of the following ...

30th April, Friday - Evening walkabout shoot around Civic Area ... meet up for dinner first, march off, then we have 2 short breaks in between

or

1st May, Saturday - Marina Barrage ... either AM or PM ... but PM seems a more definite one if on that day but worried may be too crowded there

or

8th May, Saturday - Shoot walkabout around Arab Street ... morning of course, meet up for breakfast first, then we head out to Peninsula/Funan to go gear/equipment hunting

or

8th May, Saturday - Shoot walkabout around Little India ... same as above, after breakfast ... after shoot, can consider sauntering to Sim Lim Square to go gear/equipment hunting

But this time, there will be a competition feel to it. Everyone will have to shoot in JPG only, not RAW. After the shoot, while having lunch/break, can do a show. Winner get a cuppa from me ... how's that? But it will have to be limited to a group of only 16 people. Too many will be too messy.

Cheers!

My Vote:

8th May, Saturday - Shoot walkabout around Arab Street ... morning of course, meet up for breakfast first, then we head out to Peninsula/Funan to go gear/equipment hunting

Haven tried architecture for a long time.. Not very clear on composition for this as well :sweat:

wah... so handsome...

intense stare!

What I miss is a remote shutter release, thus on the G1, it was 2sec timed shot for each (an additional of 2sec for every shot). In fact, that's the only additional thing I have now (and some funky filters but that's another story). The 2 sec timed shots (which I still practise, by habit now on my Nikon) are to minimize camera movement by your hand pressing the shutter button and releasing it. A remote release will, of course, eliminate this totally and makes it a lot easier to trigger.

Other things to note are the same as taking a panaroma shot; fixed WB, focus and then set to manual focusing so that the focusing doesn't vary from shot to shot, blah blah.

you didn't buy at least the ML-L3 wireless remote for your D5k?
quite cheap...

Bro, i more exposued jus in case u didnt realise :sweat:

 

[Dylan1987]

Time lapse huh? How long was the sequence? ;p
Anyway what I did with mine was that I slowed each frame down so that each sequence shows longer (this was some time ago 9 Jan).. I think you were there also when I did this.

Err... actually this one was the one I did the week after YSLee outing. Same same. Not different
I haven't improved on that. Maybe one of these days I will try again, and see if I can improve on it. Wish I had taken down notes.

your #3, #4 and #5 (you should number them by the way) are nice. I like the dramatic colours.
Not a fan of the over-HDR effect seen in #1 and #2. ~shrug~ I guess it's all a matter of personal taste.

Oh actually both of them are not HDR.
