A Warm Refreshment

[jcoffin]

The subjects are blurry because you have used to slow of a shutter speed and you did not stop the motion...You can have a million miles of DOF but when your shutter speed is to slow and your panning did not hit the mark you end up with those OOF web size shots and horrible originals for printing!

You are an exif-altering fraud and a fake and a sorry excuse for a photographer. Everyone can clearly see you have not a clue of what you are doing and now all they have to do is look at my posts or download your photos to see that you trying to pass off bad exif's as well.

Here are the almost completely unedited straight from the camera views of the initial KM5D camera JPG BMX shot I posted to this thread...As you can clearly see from the 100% crops a decent size print for the family and fans is not a problem. Now it is time for you to post the originals on the ones I have asked for.

Are you honestly so clueless that you claim this BMXer is moving at least 75 MPH? Is your reading comprehension so poor that you believe 1/250th of a second is slower than 1/125th of a second? Even at that, your 100% crops from the BMXer are clearly NOT even close to as sharp as the ones I already posted of the motorcyclist. Your declaring this blurry garbage "good enough for printing" shows only how low your standards are, at least when applied to your own shots.

The newer one I see you just posted is awful as well -- the noise makes this child's skin look as rough as a sixty year old smoker's.

Minibikes are for whimps...

In other words, you still haven't got anything moving more than about 15 MPH to show.

But if you're going to show a big bike moving slow (or not moving at all), why not try something original in either the bike, the angle, or preferably both? Do you really fail to see how boring your pictures are?

And yes, that rider's face is obscured -- being the sort of person I am, I asked his permission before taking the picture, and complied with his request that I emphasize the bike rather than him.

Shooting large objects against a blank sky like you did on those motorcycle shots should have been a piece of cake! You should have nailed them all! AF has no problem what-so-ever under those conditions! Trying to get focus lock on the right football player in the middle of the action on a horribly lit indoor football arena is a whole different ballgame.

You need to learn how to expose an image and if you can't see that fact you may need to adjust your monitor. You may also need some training on how to make sharp images...

I think I'd better exit this thread now -- if you think you see a problem with the focus or the exposure in that shot, it's clear that your already-tenuous grasp of reality is slipping away. If I keep on, your psychiatrist will probably hold me liable for your complete mental breakdown.
