Scenario:

2 photographers, X and Y, who don't know each other
1 rare creature
2 different agendas:

1. X wanna take a shot of the creature with flash due to back lighting
2. Y wanna wait for the creature to strike its prey and snap the action

Y tell X not to flash the creature as it might be startled and ran off.

So how?

 

[Timolol]

X fires the flash, creature gets startled, Y takes the 'action' photo.

As for the prey... :dunno:

 

[Headshotzx]

Wait for the prey shot, which will be backlit, and let both photographers shoot. One flashes, one doesn't. Both get good photos assuming good still.

Y screams, animal startled runs off. Both dun get shots, shoots prey instead. Bestest. :thumbsup:

 

[flowerpot]

im X or Y ? never mind, i normally give way to ppl... i might lose my shot but i know im giving others the opportunity to get theirs... but if its a pretty XMM, then its every man for himself...:bsmilie:

Hi desmondnwj, well you asked a most interesting question with a most interesting scenario.
What are you driving at? What kind of answers or what kind of discovery?

 

[sbs99]

both should do HD videography... if need, extract the image from the video. :bsmilie:

Hi limwhow. It was a situation i was caught in. Was wondering what would you do in that similar situation. Somtimes pple are uncompromising etc. haha

If that's the case.............................. maybe most of us should upgrade from camera to camcorder. haa

So how?

Tell Y to continue waiting while X snaps and leave the scene. :bsmilie:

 

[desmondnwj]

Tell Y to continue waiting while X snaps and leave the scene.

That's the way man!

 

[Yoh]

:bsmilie: Most probably Y has all the time to wait.
