TIGER WOODS LOVES THE EOS-1V !!!

Ok, he really doesn't. Tiger hates all cameras, especially loud ones.
But he did seem pretty excited when I whipped out the fabulous EOS-1V, just for
old times sake. Loaded with Fuji's Finest slide film, of course, and scanned
with the Magnificent Minolta Scan Elite 5400.

Lets see an 500x600 or so pixel crop of the sharpest part of the frame.

You need some fill flash, or else to have taken that shot that with the D60
in RAW and pulled out the shadows a bit.

You have a lot of money invested in a lot of hardware that has very
mediocre results... as we all do.
Most of us don't post the mediocre results all over the web.
.... I'm not sayin, ya know..... I'm just sayin.

I agree. This shot is garbage like most of your
stuff....dog shit.

 

Another forged troll post. Please ignore.

 

I guess this is a bad time to mention fill flash?

Considering that, the skin tones are pretty good.

Astia or Provia?

Cheers,
Alan.

I don't know if this is the sharpest part of the frame, but here's an
actual-sized crop from it. You can see the stitching in his pants. As he was
moving briskly towards me, it's not too bad.

Oops, I think I sent the other message without the link.

 

Yep, the pants and the fact that the foot falls entirely within the frame
make this a good shot--the face and lack of detail make it a good shot, too,
and not a great shot.

 

If he already hates all cameras, it may not be a good idea to torment
him with a flash. It'd be like adding insult to injury.

That was below the belt.

 

Spot meter or partial from his face? Or perhaps you could have spot metered
the scan from his face. All in all the most important part of a person is
his face so that would have been the priority when metering.

 

hey,
the way he has been playing lately? if you had hit him with the
flash he would have hit with with one of his clubs
where is that good looking gonna be wife of his!
P.s. any pics of him in tiger boot camp?

 

It was a tongue in cheek comment. We know every time Bret points his
fabulous Canon (hmmm, I'm beginning to see Bret's fantasy here, but I
digress) at Tiger, he lives in fear that his gear will be stop-bathed in
the nearest pond or stream...

Cheers,
Alan.

Are you kidding?
That may be true with the irreplaceable fabulous EOS-1V, but if Stevie (Tiger's
caddy) grabs the D60 with the 400 f/5.6L from me, it'll turn into a 1Ds with a
400 f/2.8L IS before it hits the water.

 

BEFORE it hits the water...? You sure about that ;-)

Ah, OK, I see, was not too awake when I posted that this morning...

I kind of got it right as my (sleep dulled) train of thought would be
that the insurance would pay for the new gear.... Ah well!
