Using my Nikon 200-400 1.4tc. , F18, ISO200, 1/8
Tripod. Any good lens at its a high aperature setting will allow sharp photos from head to tail :-). If you go too high it may become soft. Tripod mount is also critical unless you get very high shutter speed. The other key is to get as near as possible. I spent 30 Min taking this guy .. every 10 min I move closer a little. Until at the very last time, it ran away as I got too close. Then back to Processing, using shadow highlight and special sharpening tools that focuses on large edges and a final touch of Velvia film simulation. Taking the photo with a setup is just 1 step. Processing is the final step. Allan Last edited by Allan Teo; 2nd October 2006 at 08:30 AM. |
