image thumb53 Useful knowledge

 

One of the best optional things I’ve learned in life is how to take great pictures.

Now, I’ve got an almost bottomless set of quality pictures to remember my family life with and that pleases me.

When I get into something I go berserk, so at one point I had probably 100 books on photography as well as 5 or 6 magazines rolling in every month. If it interests you, go crazy.  But one book – How to Photograph Your Life will probably tell you what you need to know to create pictures you will enjoy in 10 years.

Or if you live in St. George, just ask me to give a 2 hour class to your friends, church or scout pack. Promise me 10 people, I’ll do it. I don’t even charge – it’s that important!

13apr10house085324 House filmed on Canon DSLR camera
No 13?

The season finale of House, a popular TV show for Fox, was filmed entirely with the new Canon 5D Mark II.

I’ve got a closet full of Canon’s, included a Mark 1D Mark II and the newer 50D. The 50D does excellent video and stills.

What I’ve not seen how they handled is audio. I’d be surprised if the DSLR handled that very well. I’ve no doubt it could handle the images well:

@Drdiagnostic: How was the quality as compared 2 the traditional camera used in shooting?

GY: i loved it and feel it’s the future. cameras that can give you these looks

House is a major show, – it is the biggest TV show in the world right now. I quite like it, although with the DVR I rarely watch it as it happens. I may check this one out on the 17th live though.

Note that it isn’t just a 5D on a tripod… you have a lot of other things hooked in:

As I recall, I was testing a new 1600w strobe and set her up in a very backlit situation.
The kids were accommodating subjects back then.
