Introducing new Photo Blog
6/08/10
As I’ve just stopped working for SPI (Casino Barriere and La Française des Jeux), I have to fill my days. And hopefully, I do have a lot of stuffs going on here…
Starting with all my video stuffs and my creation stuffs, like the Remote Follow Focus I’m building with an Arduino.
I also got a video stabilizer (a steadycam) from l’Aigle, which was my past article. It’s a lot of work and practice to get it right and use it right.
As you know I’m also into static photography, and I bought a Nikon D700 last year to use with the lenses I put on the camcorder with the Shoot35 SG-Blade.
I finaly bought two new optics, a Nikon 35-70 macro f2.8 and the new Samyang 14mm manual prime.
This puts me in more photography, and I wanted to be full equiped. I also bought a flashlight (Nissin), a remote shutter and a lightweight carbon tripod from Benro. I just ordered a Nikon compatible GPS to geo-tag the pictures so I can link them easily to Google map…
The final part missing is « what the hell will I do with all this photos… ». I do have the capacity to hold them in the RAID tower I built last year, but that’s not the point. I want to SHARE.
Picasa is fine, so is Fliker… But I’m not in the easy thing, and I want to do more. So I made a « photo » blog.
The real thing is that it’s not a photo-blog. It’s not only photo… But it will evolve, and the goal remain to be focused of photo.
So there you go :

Nikon D700 with Auto-ISO mode, still feat. Mouchette
11/12/09
I tried Auto-ISO with the Aperture First mode.
As I’m using Prime (fixed) lenses, I can play the aperture on the lense (defined as a « no CPU lense, so the D700 knows exactly which aperture I’m in) and have the D700 manage the shutter speed and, if needed, the ISO level, with a max at 3200 ISO.
I also think I’ll have to adjust the dioptrie on the viewfinder…
This is full RAW converted to PNG 150dpi (original is 240dpi).

First tests with the Nikon D700 and manual lenses.
With really low light and no knowledge of the camera, see how beautiful Mouchette can be
