OK, it's been a while since I've posted, I'm sorry. Things have been busy and rough (for those who may remember my employer kind of forced me out on disability, well friday was my last day- after more then 13 years.) My health was the #1 reason I went to a M4/3 camera. Which has been so wonderful! I'm still so excited about this little love of my life! So my husband's band played on Friday night and I had a great time shooting the gig. They're trying to get into a battle of the bands which requires a video submission to enter, and then there is voting (so please once they do that I'll be posting a link to vote- please please please vote for them!!!) Plus voting gets my video seen more! ha ha! So I brought the 25 1.4 with me to shoot with, and it never left my bag. I shot the whole night with my beloved 12-50. I love that lens! So here is are a couple quick shots: <a href="http://s179.photobucket.com/user/gardengirl13/media/149890856ckZ20QwZ.jpg.html" target="_blank">http://i179.photobucket.com/albums/w287/gardengirl13/149890856ckZ20QwZ.jpg" border="0" alt=" photo 149890856ckZ20QwZ.jpg"/></a> <a href="http://s179.photobucket.com/user/gardengirl13/media/1498908586zmzwCqG.jpg.html" target="_blank">[img]http://i179.photobucket.com/albums/w287/gardengirl13/1498908586zmzwCqG.jpg" border="0" alt=" photo 1498908586zmzwCqG.jpg"/></a> To see my post about it check it out here: [url=http://www.kristintroosthallphotography.com/2013/04/psychic-revolution-live-at-two-boots-4.html]Kristin Troost Hall Photography: Psychic Revolution Live at Two Boots 4-26-13[/url] And here's the video: [ame="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wJZipCJx3Ak"]Self Made Vigilante [/ame] Now as I said with my health I'm not steady, I'm super wobbly. So this video just about killed me to do, my arms and back still hurt 3 days late. I was sitting in the back of a booth seat, with my arms over my head. So as you can see, wobbly person + arms over my head + kickass image stabilization = not too bad of video! ha ha!
If you have the OMD or one of the Pannys with articulating screen, buy a cheap monopod to use for over head shots.
I've been thinking of that. I don't do over the head stuff much, but it would be helpful for other things too.
My husband's band is in the running for a battle of the bands at SPAC a local venue that's quite well known, and would be a wonderful opportunity. If you could please help and vote for them! Click the link and scroll down to Psychic Revolution and then submit, I would GREATLY appreciate it! Plus that will mean I can go and shoot there, which will be totally awesome!!!! https://docs.google.com/forms/d/11_6S2jEaZlTwM2NuRamWZDBT_Rso4zeJSJISzF_FobI/viewform If they get in I'll post all the photos/videos in another thread! Thanks so much everyone!!! I'll post to let you know if they got in! The voting is only for today through the 8th so don't hesitate!
