you're using a film camera correct? i just ask because the colors look off just a bit. maybe its the lighting, im not sure, but something looks a bit off.

yes i am using a film camera...i would say the colors look off a bit maybe since i probably f'ed them up with the crappy editing thing i have on my comp...btw-im not blaming the software...i blame myself haha

97TurboDSM · 02-04-2008, 12:03 AM

throw up an original or two just to check the colors against each other and we can go from there.

hm, they look pretty similar. might just be the subjects are lacking spectacular color.

yeah the garfield thing is an old piggy bank and is way off color from what it should be...the lighting in my bathroom also is pretty bad so the color on the tp and the qtips is a little off

97TurboDSM · 02-04-2008, 01:26 AM

well that would explain it lol..i say keep shooting and playing with your camera. better pictures will come with practice

ugh...experienced camera guy lingo im guessing...im new to this and have no idea what iso is...sorry

97MaximaSE · 02-05-2008, 02:43 AM

It's the speed of the film, or how much light is needed to properly expose it. On DSLRs we can change the ISO at our will, but when you buy film its a set ISO. So if you still have the box just look on the box it'll say a number in the hundreds (200,400,800, etc).

96Stang · 02-05-2008, 08:30 AM

o im sorry...on those i believe it was 400...the new set of film i bought is 800

They are a really great start...try using natural light like from a window, you'll get more interesting shadows and the backgrounds will not be so dark.

Keep shooting!
