One Step Duplicate Detection & Editing: My Next Big Update for Photographers
มุมมอง 6Kวันที่ผ่านมา
Happy new year everyone! I’ve been pouring a ton of time into a new on-device culling feature that works with an external hard drive (the UT2). Once you insert your memory card, it automatically identifies potential best images-around 20-30% of duplicates-and sends them off for editing. Refer to this video/post if you missed what the heck I'm talking about : www.patreon.com/posts/nas-breakthrou...

    That rant was WAY to long. It took away from an otherwise good video. Is the distortion reduced at say 28mm? I do believe there is a reason why no one else has done a 24-105 at 2.8. I commend Canon for the innovation. I noticed also that all except one of your photos were shot between the ranges of 24-70mm. I'm intrigued by this and I'm now prioritizing the rf 24-70 2.8 instead of the rf24-105 2.8. The photos looked lovely too!

    Too much type for a product that is not "all that". Incredibly slow drive speeds - look at other videos on this device, to see how slow it is. This appears to just be a failed "GnarBox 2.0".

    You could do it with the Canon 85mm 1.2 DS as the defocusing will smooth out the background bokeh and make it look as though it had been shot on a larger format.

    get the same looking shots with a 50 1.4 stood closer, or crop in with the 50 and compromise not have bokeh balls be as big. personally i've always felt the 85 to be awkward as a walk around lens, it's too specialised for me, i'd only really use it for half-body shots and even then i'd stop it down to F2 because there's such a thing as 'too shallow' DOF. for me the 85 always looks like it could have been shot with a 70-200 2.8 zoomed in a bit. whereas the 50 has a sort-of medium format perspective, plus the safety-net / comfort of being able to move in/out with your feet, even when spaces are tight.
