Here's some pictures I took. Mostly TL players, with an emphasis on HerO as I was following his progress (and he's cute!).

Obligatory info: Camera is a Rebel XTi, 50mm prime lens with broken AF (fun times), ISO 1600. Mix of f/1.8 and f/2-3 shots depending on how the lighting was. Not so many good angles this time, media weren't allowed into the player area so I could only shoot from the outside which at 50mm was kind of difficult. Lighting was a lot better than previous MLGs though.

Ret is still handsome as ever. Also, what's Jinro laughing at in the last picture?

Jinro reminds me of someone I know IRL in that last picture, but I can't put my finger on who :/

Why does the team always look so amazing? You just have love how hayder is throwing up the peace sign!
Also great pictures overall, once again the wizard has worked his magic.

Edit: Hero is awesome for using the kespa blue jean mousepad still (pretty sure its that, definitely should keep using it).

50mm pretty tough, great pictures though.

50 feels almost perfect for around the alternate stage (17-55 f/2.8 gives you a little more flexibility). f/1.8 @50mm is rough to get a decent depth of field ^^.

Well EG does have a dresscode which is just like, jeans, closed toe shoes I think lol.

One thing I did notice is that a lot of the korean players just have any old mousepad around, Nada was using this small like, 8x10 inch raggedy kespa branded mousepad, that he duct tape'd down to the table before each match.

This seems different from the situation at last MLG. Does MLG want a monopoly on the shots possible from within the player area?

I picked up a 35mm f/2.4 (with autofocus!) after my experiences at Anaheim. 35mm on a crop sensor is closer to film 50mm, and yeah would be nice on alternate stage with the depth of field advantages you mentioned.

All of the pics are pretty good and here are some thoughts I'd like to share.

#1 Anyone else think Incontroll needs a larger mouse that will probably suit his hand better? Cause right now it looks like he's playing with Idra's mouse in that pic.

#4 For the group picture why didn't they all do the same pose? Right now it's like most of them are trying to look somewhat of a bad-ass with their arms folded like that but Haypro is ruining it by trying to look like an Asian guy, and Ret seems to not give a fuck at all that they are taking a picture of him.

That's pretty much all of what I've had to share/ask for now. If I come up with anything else later, I'll add it to this post.

P.S. No hard feelings, I didn't mean to offend anyone.

No reason to spring for the f/1.4 unless you have a seriously sexy printshop. Shooting at f/1.4 on the canon 50mm doesn't actually give you that great of quality, as you probably know every lens has a sweet spot, both in the center of the glass and towards the center of the aperture range, at f/1.4 you will have a blurrier image at the focal point than at f/2.4 on the same lens, vignetting and chromatic aberration also come into effect.

If you have the cash to drop on an f/1.4 and the skills to use it, you definitely won't be sorry, it's one sexy beast of a lens :D

If you don't have the cash, the $100 50mm f/1.8 will give any amateur almost identical results, and if you're not going to print then the quality difference will be negligible.

Awesome pics, want more of TLO plz!!!11!
