The alcoholic photo thread - Beercan images


I guessed so...

But compared to the 100-200 the gears whirring sound is much silent compared to 70-210, but during af I'm quite ok with the noise...

long time I have not bring out my beer-can will check mine of the AF noise I think mine some sound when AF jerks to re-adjust AF e.g. when subject moves while half press shutter button... but with out build in motor it's noisy AF =)
 

Just to share a photo of my 2nd Carbonized Beercan :)

hey bro how did u do that?

My beercan came in with quite a bad exterior, scratches everywhere and dirty. So I decided to "refurbish" it myself.
Its just normal 3M carbon fiber vinyl.
Measure and cut everything myself, including punching a small hole to fit the orange dot and slicing a small line to show the white indicator line.
I removed the rubber zoom ring and clean it with toothbrush n toothpaste.
:)

Right now I'm still thinking should I cover the focal lengths markings, cos there's a deep scratch at 70mm mark...

Cheers

looks nice maybe I should do this to my old minolta lenses even though they still good cond just to protect and make it look cool/good some more hehehe... I was hunting at DIY h/w shop didn't saw any 3M carbon fiber vinyl tape can share what where you bought your tape?
 

I bought my 3M vinyl from eBay. It's a Singapore seller from bukit batok. If u wan I can try to search for his contact for u.

I'm actually thinking of getting the white carbon fiber vinyl to do up my other beercan. Hehehe

Here is a recent picture I took using the beer can. I found that my beercan gives a slightly cool colour, compared to my Tamron. Is this common? Or just my WB is off? Thanks

Hi ! I am interested in getting too. Can PM me his contact or link as well? Thanks !
 

Hi Atarandas.

For this particular shot the WB is correct. In some shooting situation I encountered the slightly coolish colour (I normally set WB in auto). It could be because of the sun glare. I ended up editing my raw files.
 

For a while I was keeping my beercan on bench so I decided to bring it out :)

Some free mini concert @ esplanade last night
