D3 and available light


I'm a big light production kinda guy, I had an assignment to shoot some portraits in a kitchen. I had all my lighting kits with me and the challenge was to shoot these portraits in a crazy working kitchen. I've had me D3 for awhile and have read about the high ISO low noise, but never really put it to a good test. It would of been difficult to light the whole kitchen, so I tired afew shots with the available light. Cranked up the ISO to 400/800 and shot at f/1.2. The files blew me away. I started with a D1x than D2x, at ISO 400 the files looked as good if not better than ISO 100 from the D2x. I'm seeing the world in a new light ........ I did the same thing the other day and shot all available light. Wow .........

work for trade


I'm now the newest member of The Downtown Raleigh Alliance http://www.godowntownraleigh.com/. Work for trade is a tricky thing. Do you have the time is it worth your while is it a good cause. I'm all about downtown Raleigh, that's where my studio is and anything I can do to help downtown grow I'm happy to do. It was a good chance to round out my stock images of Raleigh, I get a ton of request and am working on www.raleighstockphotography.com. I registered about a dozen website the other day, I need to get to work on http://www.raleighconventioncenterproductions.com/.
Ran around with 2 AB's and battery pack, glad I took the cheap lights, the wind blew one over, but it still works. YEA .... Meet some great people and had a good time. Work for trade well worth it this time.
