Should use polarizer for the 1st one.

I think if the logo is straight it will be better. Cos this is the brand mah! :bsmilie:

 

[jeanie]

polariser ah?

i will try it again over weekends.was trying to get the 'multicoating' effect.

geeezzz i didnt know shooting reflective materials can be quite a challenge.

i cant imagine shooting cars...the amount of work and setup to be done.:sweat:

isnt that a bit too conventional?

room for improvement.

you need a reflector to bring some details in the shadow area
and some edge definition

how about use a close up filter to get a closer shot, without needing a macro lens?

It's an ex watch but the faceglass don't have a multicoating good enought to cut reflection?

i dont think i have a closeup filter wor.got to go dig and find.storeroom in a mess!

normal viewing the multicoating is good enough.but under studio strobes, apparently it still cast a reflection, though the reflection aint white but it's the multicoating color.

i got a feeling this will seriously degrade IQ.
i think getting a real macro lens is the way to go.
but dunno which one to get.i didnt want the 105 vr afs because it's exactly the same focal length as my 105dc.
:dunno:
