Reacting to Hundreds of Angry Comments on my Reel about Porsche Door Sounds

    I got my first media accreditation at the 2023 Le Mans 24 Hour race, I was 17. I completely agree with you. But I think as young photographers, we shouldn't see accreditations like THE achievement of our career... It takes nothing from a race organiser to give you a media pass. I really think the thing we should focus on is how to sell pictures, this is an achievement to me.

      it's no doubt a great lens, and I could see it being an excellent lens for motorsports. I will probably try it again (4th time's a charm!), but currently, the 85 just doesn't have a place in my bag if I'm already bringing the 70-200 with me.

      lol, that happens! Either embrace the clear shot, or sometimes if I'm doing a long exposure on a tripod, I'll look away or at my phone when I click the shutter, so people kinda of ignore the camera and walk through the frame it I'm not looking at back of the camera.

Before that, a 4x4 Sisley with the fun gauges that warn you’re about to tip over just before you do. And the very first was the original 4x4 with removable deckchair seats. The original design was just so clever + functional, cute + chunky. Loved ‘em all

    • @capturingthemachine
      @capturingthemachine 5 дней назад

      Not a silly question, burst is best, especially when you’re doing slower shutter, like 1/15th or 1/20th of a second. The first and last shots might be blurry just from your finger pushing/releasing the shutter, but the ones in between are more likely to be stable. It’s annoying because you have more to sort and edit, but you’ll have more options and probably sharper results.

      There was nothing technically wrong with it, it just seemed a little lazier than the other photos submitted by the photographer, who is clearly very talented. The issues I had with the photo were minor, but it led to a broader tangent about 'supercar spotter' photography, which I find dull and uncreative most of the time.

      It's been a while such I've used APS-C, but the depth of field would be slightly reduced, I think you'd need a 300mm lens to get the same depth of field as on a 200mm full frame.
