This time I decided to take the opportunity over WCG (because I'm not there obviously.) to blog about my camera supplies. I've had quite a few people asking what set up I'm using and have used in the past.

I hope this is a useful video and if you have any more camera related questions don't be afraid to ask

Haven't watched it yet, but it's definitely useful to someone like me, who has a D60, and little knowledge on how to use it.

Thanks, NeverGG!

And your problem with this is? I'm a photographer so it's natural for me to discuss these kinds of things. Also people here and elsewhere have asked me what kind of set up I'm using as I stated in the video so it's useful to have somewhere to direct them.

I'm not going to say go read the manual or anything. My best advice is to get out there and photograph as many different types of things as you can. Find out what you truly love to photograph and then expand upon that. I hope you can post some photos here in the future

Yeah, I bought it for Blizzcon mainly. I do want to go out and shoot some more with it, but I've just been busy with school and some other things, so I haven't taken the time to go out with it. One thing I do need to tweak, from googling my issue, is the white balance. All of my indoor pictures without flash have a slight yellowish tint to them.

I'll definitely post some pictures once I have some time to go out with my camera, but that might be a while from now.

I watched the video now, and it's definitely interesting stuff. Pretty crazy how big some of the lenses can get. And I don't think anyone can fault you for talking about your passion. I really appreciate the video blogging, as well as everything else you do for the community. I am going to have to track down video two though, I've only watched this and the first.

Did you not watch the video? I gave the figures in Korean won and dollars for all the equipment.

Where did you grow up?

This is a really cool informative guide. Why do you take polaroids? I always thought it was a lost technology.

What video camera are you using to film this?

Would you ever get a dedicated HD Camcorder for video interviews?

Also, thanks for switching it up between won, quid and dollars... lol

Fujifilm still makes instant film, no? I have a couple polaroid cameras, but the Polaroid company stopped making film for them... ):

And it's too bad you couldn't get the 5D Mk2. Still, though, I envy your setup so much, haha.

BTW, which 50mm lens is that you have on your Canon? 1.8 or 1.4?
