It's no a real manual focus. Focusing ring is not hardwired with the system, it's electronic data only and logo you choose sends data for the system to adjust it accordingly. That is why it can be set to any position and in certain mode the camera can do what it wants.

Hi Will, I hope you are doing well. Your videos always bring me the feeling of peace and joy. The pictures of you jumping were great. I mean the idea was great but what’s more important is that most people including me would consider it impossible do to, yet it worked on a film camera. I don’t even know how many shots would I need to make it work on a DSLR.
@willysheepskin5 күн бұрын
Hiya Cheteu! I'm doing great thanks hope you're doing well also! Such an honor to make things that can provide those feelings! I'm really happy with how the jump worked out in the end too! Quite wild that my favorite one is the one I made first haha, always good to have backups though! Just very lucky in the end I guess and the wideness of the fisheye made being in the frame a bit easier lol!

Awesome pics. do you have any experience with stereo photography? I am considering experimenting with 120 black and white, in that format. I would love to hear any thoughts you may have on the subject.
@willysheepskin5 күн бұрын
I don't actually! Although have always been curious to try set up a system for myself with a couple of cameras and a mount lol! There are some cool older stereo cameras floating around too though, and they aren't too expensive from what I remember since they're quite niche. I've made a couple of images with like a Nimslo camera too which are fun but the'yre quite cheaply made and unreliable for how expensive they are so don't know if I'd go that route. I think they can give a cool effect though, the display format plays a role in the end too I guess since one needs to be able to present them in a way that the stereo effect actually comes across. Might be cool to tinker with for a video sometime!

@randallstewart12245 күн бұрын
A big plus for this video, if only because I use the Pentax 67 system, and one of the last lenses I acquired was the 35mm. The term "fisheye" is somewhat misleading IMO as you tend to think of those early Nikon lenses which put a round, distorted image in the center of a 35mm frame. With the P67 35mm lens,it just means that something had to give of the short focal length, and they chose to not correct for curvature at the image edges. If you use the lens for subjects which do not present straight lines at the boundaries, you'd never notice the effect. The first time I used mine, it was for a shot something like the first he shows here. On a forest hike, I put it low on a tripod in the middle of the trail, shooting straight up into the canopy. I had to lie down in the trail to trigger the shutter without getting onto the image myself.

I don't know if it's the light in ZA or just how you edit images but there's a very particular Will pinkish red that seems to infuse a lot of your work I've never quite seen anywhere else.

In terms of the images later in the video the pink comes in from the landscape itself because there’s a layer of rust on everything there from the steel refinery haha! Reddish pink vibes in other images are probably cus I have slight color blindness though and am always trying to avoid green colour casts haha!

How are you guys focusing with this camera? I get so many out of focus shots compared to other point and shoots. Especially when i shoot people. Should i stop putting the crosshairs on the eyes and maybe aim for the shirt or a more contrasty spot?? Since it is 2.8 or slower i know if don't need to focus on face but i think it is habit. Any advice?
