Day 2 with Jeffry
I have a Nikon D3100 DSLR camera. The pros of my camera tend to out weigh the cons, it has a better high ISO quality and can automatically control the depth of field. It tends to take sharper photos because the lens is highly sensitive. It can be difficult to operate and very bulky compared to the compact point and shoot. Most of the time a DSLR will run the consumer anywhere from 100 to thousands of dollars. The file size also tends to be a lot larger and needs resizing when transfered to a computer. When using the DSLR flash is better left off because it will capture the brightest elements of the composition and make them brighter drowing out the subject matter.
Jeffry - This is photo of Jeffry the three legger. It is very difficult capturing the character of a black dog because light is absorbed in their coat. With the DSLR I was able to capture his big brown eyes with catch lights. He is smiling with great depth of field with the subject in focus and its surrounding are blurred.

I love your smiling pic of Jeffrey! It helps working with such a cute model. I love my D3100 so far. I think it's going to be a great camera. Hope you like it too.
ReplyDeleteGreat photo! I would have pointed out the exact same strengths that you did. Also, I might add that the exposure is very good, which also accounts for the rich colors in the image.
ReplyDeleteAwesome picture of Jeffrey! I feel his happiness through the image which is what photos are supposed to do- great job!
ReplyDeleteWow, that's a great photo of Jeffrey! He's not looking at the camera but this still captures his character by catching that sparkle in his eye and his wide smile! Amazing!
ReplyDeleteThe DSLRs take a little getting used to, but the image quality is way better. Love your pic of Jeffrey!
ReplyDeleteI really like how much of the catch-lights are in Jeffrey's eyes. Great picture!
ReplyDeleteI think my comment was deleted in the Blogger debacle last week. In any case, image is well exposed, and the expression shows an eager and happy animal. Good work. Jeffery is not an easy subject!
