I am sorry for the delay. But as I haven't been inspired to write about my Pentax experience as yet at least, I guess you will have to hang in.

Benjamin, I have a note pad and pencil, you could talk about your Pentax experience and I will scribble things down for you if you are busy. I keep coming back to this post, but it stays the same.

A super strong set of images, simply excellent.

In the other video, at the end, when she goes out the set it can be seen an big umbrella at six (twelve at background) high. Ben ¿Is the umbrella open or has an difuser? (like it was an octa).

Yes, you are right , the light source is quite high and angled down at around 45°. I am also using a white reflector on the floor out of the scene and a couple more on either side of the model.

just when you think you know something, you start to understand that you know nothing :D so sorry if i'm being rude, but if it is not a problem, could you just point me in the right direction... all day long i'm studying this edit. and since I don't see umbrella catchlight (i'm guessing its pretty high, also because of the shadows on the seamless), the only thing I can think off is that the "super soft and sexy round light" is a fill and umbrella is actually the main light?

thank you for your previous response, really appreciate your images and advices! and this edit. its a holiday for the eyes :)

That would be a mix of a "Silver" hard contrast large umbrella and an Balcar white beauty dish.

Completely agree Ben. .....Saying something has PR value or it'll be good exposure is a euphemism cheap greedy selfish, SOB's like to use, when what they really mean is "WE WANT IT FOR FREE!" That's fucking great! Then show it's creator appreciation & value by paying them!

Re: Tasty Tech Toys Pentax K30 Waterproof DSLR Camera

Irena Leite — Thu, 11 Apr 2013 06:53:19 -0000

I don't like the feel of K30 at all.. all the angles are so sharp and non ergonomic..the thumb gets hurt after a few minutes of holding it..and a grip is so narrow, so the fingers get stuck into it.. and the flash looka awkward.. this camera is for very small hands for sure.. but other than that no complaints at all.. I still have my K20, but the decent upgrade for me would definitely be a K5..

Thank you for sharing!

I keep coming back to read about your experience of Pentax, but nothing has been updated in relation to this post. Are we talking days, weeks or months?
