the bitter*girls & FAKE MODEL PHOTOGRAPHY








Photos of the bitter*girls has long been our favorite; her style is the now-popular fake model photography. Though I don't know what she did to achieve the illusion of fake model photography; but there is a tutorial online which teaches you how to mimick this style of photography.

HASSELBLAD H3D II

The new 39 Megapixel Hasselblad H3D II features an integrated GPS system for tagging the photos... (? huh?) Anyway, this camera is certainly not for everyone, for those of you who needs a premium camera such as this one, you should expect a premium price tag as well --- a sweet $37,000.


Let's Go Digital for full review.

STILL LIFE BY MARTIN KLIMAS





Martin Klimas' series of still life photograph left me in awe. I love the fact that though the photo captures the breakage in a standstill; but the broken sculptures look as if it were to continue its movement in a blink of the eye.

Here is an article on Martin's work and working technique in The Morning News.

NATURA CLASSICA - TRIED AND TESTED



Hooray! We finally got our hands on our very own Natura Classica (and the Natura 1600 film)!! Above are couple of pictures I took with a standard ISO 800 film. It's a great little camera, very simple and straight-forward, it reminds me of my Olympus ยต back in the days (for its simplicity!).

The camera costed me 250 USD, so for its price, this is exactly what I expected; which leads me to my only complain for this lil' gadget - it lacks a manual mode! But I suppose that is the difference in its price.

HOMEMADE FISH EYE LENS
















Dr.USO teaches you how to create your own FISH-EYE lens!!

All it takes is cardboard, cardboard roll of your toilet paper, a magnifying lens and a fish eye (yes, the real thing)!
It's unfortunate that the video is in Japanese and the subtitles are in Chinese only. But it's relatively straight-forward and quite self-explanatory.

Be warned though, do not try this with your precious GR1V!

Watch the video!
