![]() Jul 06 08 12:24 am Link your problem is not the camera. It's the way it was developed! You need to ask your photo lab person to develop the foreground first, and the background second! Trust me, i work in a photo lab! Jul 06 08 12:24 am Link Eric Faulknor wrote: I think you might be right. They gave me an envelope that had an option for doubles but I didn't check it. Jul 06 08 12:26 am Link PYPI COMMERCIAL wrote: Oh No!!! Not doubles!! That will give you a drunk blurred look. Should be a "special instructions" section. If not, just add that to the envelope. They'll know what to do. They are highly trained high school drop outs after all!

Jul 06 08 01:21 am Link take it off "auto" set your focus point to the center one - press and hold the shutter button half way to acquire focus lock and then reposition the frame - press the shutter the rest of the way to obtain the capture.
your camera is probably using all focus point in AI Servo mode and is taking the capture from the wrong focus point.

Jul 06 08 01:28 am Link PYPI COMMERCIAL wrote: I think you should probably start out with a more simple camera, it seems as though this one is too difficult for you. Jul 06 08 01:31 am Link It needs a new flint. Jul 06 08 01:38 am Link sofija wrote: You might be right. The part where you have to turn the dial before each shot confuses me. Not only that, the models look at me with disdain when I get them all ready and press the little round button only to see that nothing has happened. I see them whispering to each other. I don't think they are saying nice things about me. Jul 06 08 01:41 am Link PYPI COMMERCIAL wrote: You should take a class at a community college and learn some techniques!

I see that guy Nigel Barker do it on America's Next Top Model and it looks pretty easy so I figure I would just give it a try. Anyway, I heard it's easier to approach chicks with a camera. So far it has not worked with this camera but I'm keeping my fingers crossed. Jul 06 08 01:50 am Link Kylie Ann wrote: I knew it! So you were not impressed with my camera? I paid good money for it.

Jul 06 08 01:54 am Link woah... quoted the wrong thing. haha oh well Jul 06 08 01:54 am Link Kylie Ann wrote: Oh well. I should have gotten the Sponge Bob version but it was not on sale. I was equally impressed with your "kite". Jul 06 08 01:57 am Link PYPI COMMERCIAL wrote: The SpongeBob one would have been amazing.
Jul 06 08 01:59 am Link I love working with new amazingly talented photographers!
Oh my. I hear that this is only your commercial portfolio and you shoot high fashion as well? This all sounds so very delightful and so promising! Nothing beats a fresh start.

Maybe the batteries need changing? Jul 06 08 02:16 am Link PYPI COMMERCIAL wrote: Yes, I think so. I hear there is model pretending to be me Jul 06 08 02:18 am Link PYPI COMMERCIAL wrote: Oh my god... that is TOO funny!
