I had a chance to take some pictures of an electric guitar and associated equipment today.

All taken with the K10D at ISO1600 & DA*16-50 at F2.8. Some of these have been pushed an extra stop in Lightroom because I forgot to dial in +1EV in AV mode when I switched the camera off half way through shooting (I don't have it set to save it).

Here are the results, enjoy. (C&C Welcome)

Hey Tyr,

Fun shoot! The last is my favourite also the most abstract.

The 1st and 4th are intriguing when considered together - an illustration of selective focus in composition! In both of these, though, I think my preference wd be a slightly greater depth of field, so that the guitar is a little more clear in the 1st, and Fender the same in the 4th.


Cheers,
Keith

Thanks for the comments. Light was already quite poor and I wanted the slight warm tungsten colour whichis why The whole set was at F2.8 without my flash. Stopping down a little would have meant shakey pictures (I don't have any way of shooting still so low to the ground).

I'll have a play to see if I can get some lights in the room and try again with a higher DoF.
