GH2 Makeover


Thoughts? Did a photo shoot as well with the GH2
57mm Hexanon 1.4
135mm Canon FD F2

Comment away - how's the audio sound despite the chatter/blow dryers and city in the BG?

Looks really good! What film mode and settings were you on?

Re: GH2 Makeover

I was confused by the lenses you listed till I realized it was clear you just didn't mention them all, you also used a wide angle?

Stunning shots, great lighting. Audio is great.

Great video. What did you use for lighting the stills at the end with the couple? Did you use an external flash/strobes? Thanks!

Thanks,

I change throughout the day, but generally by habit

1. Natural in well lit environments, Standard if it's just too saturated an environment.
2. Smooth in low light, Nostalgiac in VERY LOW LIGHT.
Not a huge fan of cinematic and dynamic - contrast is too extreme. Even with CC Cinematic still kind of looks flat most times to me. Haven't tried custom modes too much though.

Yep, had to keep it quick since we moved from spot to spot. 285HV with portable softbox as key. Vivitar 383 with fongsphere as rim light/BG light.
