not a fan on the shopping

Laue (Jan 1, 2011 at 13:23)

what do you mean?

charleyboy14 (Jan 1, 2011 at 13:31)

Slight blurred edges, blurring the background

Laue (Jan 1, 2011 at 13:33)

well man, this shot was taken with 200mm and 2.8f...there is nothing with shopping!

charleyboy14 (Jan 1, 2011 at 14:04)

May i ask what shutter speed?

Laue (Jan 1, 2011 at 14:08)

what do you think...

charleyboy14 (Jan 1, 2011 at 14:22)

100Th maybe 160th max 200th . Anything higher and its shopped

Laue (Jan 1, 2011 at 14:50)

it was 250Th, usual the fastest shutterspeed for flashing....i just saw it was 175 mm...well with the conversion factor 260 mm

charleyboy14 (Jan 1, 2011 at 14:54)

so all the action should be frozen?

Laue (Jan 1, 2011 at 15:03)

yes should be...for example, the top of the helmet isn't sharp because the flash didn't hit this part

charleyboy14 (Jan 1, 2011 at 15:13)

Yeah the 1 thing that makes me think it's shopped is the left lower of the fork, the flash hit that part but on the edge it isn't crisp

Laue (Jan 1, 2011 at 15:42)

his right arm is not that sharp too...the thing is, the available light is pritty spotty, so the flash is not that intense

jaketinnelly (Jan 20, 2011 at 1:16)

This is a rad shot for sure

zakxx (Jan 20, 2011 at 6:06)

dude dont give a shite. this bokeh is natural. the only thing that could have been shopped is the rider - looks too colorful to me, but i may be wrong. cheers.
