D600 and Figures!

September 20, 2012

My D600 is here!

Doing some testing with Figures of course!  Here’s Nagisa from Clannad~

Setup shot Below~

The flash is actually sitting on top of the computer cart… it’s bounced off of the ceiling and reflected towards Nagisa.  The glare off the monitor was very unattractive using other angles for the flash.

The Image Quality is great!  But it is far easier to do figure photography with the D7000 so I think I might try to head out to a park… or maybe a CITY to do some wide photography this weekend.  One of these days I want to go shoot Grand Rapids because I think the skyline there is awesome ^^

I will post more D600 images as I have more available!

Getting Back to Figure Photography…

September 17, 2012

I’ve been slacking lately and after a little bit of peer pressure from some friends of mine on the mythical interwebs, I’ve decided it’s time to get back to doing some figure photography.

So I decided to set up some basic shots last night for my Gothic Garden Tsukasa figure…

It’s been a while since I did any figure photography so it was fun ^^

Here’s the setup shot.

It was a combination of SB-700 flash fired remotely with -2.0 exposure compensation, iPad as a background, and a soft light coming from my android phone as a fill (though I will probably use a reflector next time instead).

I will do more test shots like this in the near future as I for sure will need to test my D600 when it arrives ^^

All shots were shot with Nikon D7000 and Tamron 28-75 f/2.8 @ f/8.0, ISO 100, and 1/60 s shutter speed.  Focal Length varies.

D600 Early Adopter

September 14, 2012

I’ve pre-ordered a Nikon D600 from Amazon.  It appears to be the camera I’ve been wanting for a while.  I’ll post more pictures here once I have it in my hands, I promise!

Hopefully if it ships on time I will have it in my hands on September 19th.
