Nikon 300mm f/4 effects of not having 39mm drop in filter.

12 Jan

This is the information off of Ken Rockwell’s website. ” The internal filter should remain in place because the presence or absence of the filter changes the effective (optical) distance to the film plane by a tiny amount. Don’t worry about this, but please leave the filter holder in place. The change in effective path length is the thickness of the filter x ([the filter glass’ index of refraction] -1 ). A typical index of refraction is about 1.5, so you change the effective distance to the film by about half the thickness of the filter. Of course the same effect happens with filters in front of your lens, but no one notices when you change the distance to a subject by a millimeter. In lens design, moving the film plane a mm can make a difference, but not much with telephotos. You can confirm this effect if you focus on a distant object and note the indication on the focus scale. Now remove the internal filter, refocus, and you will note that the focus scale indicates a different distance when focused on the same object. ” All information is copyrighted by Ken Rockwell at www.kenrockwell.com

D3100 Examples of high ISO settings star photos

11 Jan

Just a quick example of the different ISO settings I have attempted to use in my attempts to carry out time lapse of the star filled night sky. This is an FYI just to give you an idea of the quality that you can capture using ISO 1600 or ISO 1800 and also the difference in the amount of stars you can pick up. Shutter speed obviously plays a part as well but this video is to highlight what you could expect from higher ISO settings in regards to capturing stars at night. Hope it helps. Camera used Nikon D3100 DSLR

 
 

Annemarie Busschers: 11 Clearer Than Life Portraits

11 Jan

[ By Marc in Art & Drawing & Digital. ]

Annemarie-Busschers-Montage

Annemarie Busschers is a contemporary artist from the Netherlands who creates portraits that beautifully captures the raw emotion of her subjects, often photorealistically.

Annemarie-Busschers-3

Annemarie Busschers works, most of which can be found on her site here, follow similar themes of “saying goodbye to the self” (in the artist’s own words). Even when she’s setting out to to capture her subject’s emotion, the realism of her depiction gives it a photo realistic aspect. These examples show several self portraits (top right photo, and bottom).

Annemarie-Busschers-2

This painting, via PulpFactor, is one of Annemarie Busscher’s earlier works, and an excellent example of the emotional realism that continues through her most recent portraits. The second image comes via Booooooom and gives a good perspective on the size of her canvases.

Annemarie-Busschers-4

These Annemarie Busschers paintings are excellent examples of the amount of texture she attains with her artistry. The size of the canvas gives her room to create a landscape out of skin and facial features, creating an image that’s an incredibly clear treatment of her subject.

Annemarie-Busschers-5

Found on entremundos and galeriebrandt, these pieces reveal the contrast between Annemarie’s treatments of different subjects. Each subject requires a different approach to capture their personality.

Annemarie-Busschers

Annemarie Busschers has incredible talent that’s constantly evolving, but always sticks to one essence: that the subject will have their essence captured in whatever way serves them best.
