    Exposure blending help for property/architectural photography

    This is the next technique that i will be looking into. I know landscape photographers like this method but it would be handy in cases where im pushed for time working with multiple exposures (im assuming this is done with one exposure?) Yes they do! Im in the process of looking at property...

    Exposure blending help for property/architectural photography

    Using the exposure blending so far seems to be getting some really good results. Especially on property on sunny days. Im fortune enough to visit houses with good views outside eg. Rivers, lakes. They do appear to seem more professional and polished looking and would certainly recommend...

    Exposure blending help for property/architectural photography

    I do see exactly where you are coming from. Unfortunately in my position I am in no position to dictate timescales. We quote a 48hr turnaround as we are an in house agency for a large estate agency and this is something that is explained to vendors when they decide to use their services. As most...

    Exposure blending help for property/architectural photography

    Hi All Just looking to get an idea of how everyone who uses this method of editing goes about it on photoshop. I know the concept of bracketing exposures and using them for highlights/shadows/details etc its the finding an efficient way to blend them together that i occasionally struggle with...

    Should I be worried about rattling from lens - Sigma 10-20mm f3.5 EX DC

    That's interesting, has it always done it? Mine slowly developed but admittedly I hadn't used it in a while. I have noticed recently it wants quite as bad as it used to be.

    Should I be worried about rattling from lens - Sigma 10-20mm f3.5 EX DC

    No thankfully its just my personal lens - only for hobby use. My work lens is subject to more abuse! Thankfully I don't have to pay for repairs on that!

    Should I be worried about rattling from lens - Sigma 10-20mm f3.5 EX DC

    Im sure it would! The lens itself wasn't bank breaking amounts. I guess if any damage had been inflicted it would have shown up in picture quality by now?

    Should I be worried about rattling from lens - Sigma 10-20mm f3.5 EX DC

    Hi all Ive never encountered this before, but thought id see what everyones thought are as I have seen quite a lot of conflicting information on this. I have a Sigma 10-20mm f3.5 EX DC for Nikon mounts. Ive had it a few years and always handled it with care and never dropped it, there's not...

    Art Deco/Nouveau (an open thread) Streamline, Modernist, Bauhaus too

    Brutal Architecture - an Open Thread

    Great thread! I’ll certainly be following this as im starting to capture more Brutalist buildings. Heres some from The Barbican which i think is definitely worth visiting! Its been the one brutalist location ive really wanted to shoot with colour due to the lake and colourful balconies.

    Just following on from my last post, i have tried to get some voluntary work through local businesses and have posted on local Facebook and business pages aswell as next door app but unfortunately no takers really. Which i am surprised but it may be a weird time for businesses where photography...

    What type of lens does everyone use for architecture/building photography.

    Unfortunately being located in built up areas and outer london drones are out of the picture. My company only reserves them for large houses in rural areas which we occasionally cover. For personal use though i would definitely appreciate a drone and have noticed a trend of increasing amount of...

    What type of lens does everyone use for architecture/building photography.

    As a slight deviation to the thread im also trying to add to my portfolio and thought id get some knowledge from those in the know. Whilst using my employers clients photos is strictly off the cards, it would be nice to show some nice projects, buildings, businesses etc where access is required...

    What type of lens does everyone use for architecture/building photography.

    I think also part of what can make property photos look flat and boring is that there is limited scope for creativity in order to satisfy the clients, as the listings will need to show a clear representation of the property and rooms with limited photos (unless something quite upmarket . Also as...

    What type of lens does everyone use for architecture/building photography.

    Yes I completely agree, correcting verticals can be challenging and can often look strange. I find this especially on taller and narrower buildings as I guess thats not how you would view them through your own eyes. I find that overdoing this can also make the photo look like a cgi render which...
