:)

I was already expecting you to make pro videos...

 

But your pictures are definitely pro enough, there isn't much needed for improvement on that sector lol.

 

Haha... I think I am about to give-up on the video.

 

Thanks! :)

Nice new addition, a mandarin has always been my absolute dream fish, one day I will manage to keep one. May even be able to do it with my current tank once my sump goes in.

good food? um , poke(of all kinds, like tako!-Seriously good!),laulu, spam musubi, Hawaiian sun juices, Mochi(one of my favs!), poi(don't really like it) Loco moco-seriously there are to many-oh man I'm drooling :o also the kalbi plate lunch with the macaroni and white rice was my beach stable with a lilikoi passion hawaiian sun drink

 

Edit: I'm not a big fan of pork but real Kalua pig is sooooo good! Go find a local luau and most these things plus more should be there!

Haha, it will still be a while before the sump is online. I have a fair bit of stand mods that need to be completed first.

Wohoo! Thanks for the tip! I was trying to adjust the light's colors and realized if I adjust the colors to 100% then the banding disappear! Looks like if the colors not at 100%, the frequency changes. By keeping colors at 100%, frequency stays at 60Hz which matches 24 fps and 30 fps so banding is gone! :D

awesome. glad you figured it out. now you don't have to get discouraged and can keep the awesome videos coming.

 

your photography is great man, I like the seattle wedding at the aquarium.

thought about doing Weddings Cinema style, but I agree with you... the pressure and dealing with people, not something you'd enjoy after awhile.

 

you have a housing for under-water? or was that disposable? those sharks and turtle pictures are sweet. and I especially enjoyed the last picture with the city lights, stars, and the ocean with the shallow teal contrast... and diamond head in the background :P

Thanks man. I enjoy photographing people and weddings, actually everything, I just don't like to deal with people, you are right. Haha

 

Yea. I have a housing for my 5DII but not fully equipped, I can only use my 35mm lens and no flash light yet. I rarely use it because its not fun going into water here at Puget Sound so I had no intention of getting more accessories.

 

Thanks for the compliment on the photos. That turtle picture was actually taken with the disposable underwater film camera. :) The shark photo was using the DSLR with housing but I forgot to adjust the color balance so the blue color was way out of gamut, but it looks kinda cool. Haha.

ah a 5Dmk II is my dream camera... and maybe a blackmagic or red, too. but the prices for the mk III are dropping apparently, hopefully I can invest in one soon...

I bet the housing set you back a bit. really cool to have though!

Maybe I can learn a thing or two from you :happy:

 

hope you had a good Christmas man. and happy new year!

I am not familiar with blackmagic. Is it full frame? If not, full frame sensor 5DII or III is the way to go, paring with L lens, the DOF and bokeh will be super nice, true cinematic look and quality! :)

 

Thanks! Happy new year to you too!

So how are the fishies doing?? Any better luck on the orchid coming out?

 

They are all doing fine. Orchid doesn't come out often, hides in the cave 99% of time, but it takes food from me now.

Nice. Well, best part is they haven't tried suicide. ;)

 

So how's the tank?

 

Haha... I hope they don't!

 

Tank is doing fine. Nothing really change. Probably adding the Yellow Hammer soon. (talking to Richard about his stock now) :)

Pods population is in control but flatworms is not, mandarin doesn't seem to eat it, maybe it will start eating flatworms once pods is running low.
