Nobody's worried about you they're much more aware of the film guy.. When a motion picture camera is going video or film all bets are off nothing is normal. The foot print motion picture photography has on any scene is huge compared to a measly still camera guy. It adds excitement and hyper reality to any situation. But mainly leaves the still guys in the shadow. This can work to our advantage. They are much more nervous about the guy with the whirling bigger camera. The flash on the cord thing is a deceptively powerful way of shooting. Though not really the most low key. The shots of course do not have that flat look that over the lens on camera flash does have. And can pass for a non flash result. At an effective 20,000th of a second at f11. Prefocusing or zone focusing rather on everything and not having to bother looking through the viewfinder. Or rangefinder. The shots can be very effective. This guy is a little though weird. -------------------- Mark William Rabiner Photography http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/lugalrabs/ Cars: http://tinyurl.com/2f7ptxb mark at rabinergroup.com > From: Tina Manley <images at comporium.net> > Reply-To: Leica Users Group <lug at leica-users.org> > Date: Thu, 21 Oct 2010 07:36:55 -0400 > To: Leica Users Group <lug at leica-users.org> > Subject: Re: [Leica] Quiet, unobtrusive and invisible?
