I have a shoot booked for later this week, in a studio ith various backdrops including boudior area brick wall and others , but I am struggling for ideas, i feel as I should have ideas for the shoot and should share them with the model.
I have looked online for mood boar, but am hoping forum members could share some of their knowledge. and links to other relevant resources.
I am still a complete novice with lighting , so will ask the owner to set up a 2 light setup.
I will be shooting up to and including nude.
If you have some ideas you can help me with feel free to suggest them.
Regards
Nadeem

Are Pentax just to expensive?
I have recently purchase a K3ii.
Currys are offering Nikon / Canon 24M cameras at £300-400, their Sony comes with a lens, top LCD and on camera stabilization at £500.
OK I have a few Pentax lenses and flashes which would be costly to replace, but if and when I next upgrade I shall be looking a bit more widely.
Is video required on a DSLR? How many people actually use it? Would it make sense for manufacturers (Pentax) to offer a lower cost camera body without it?
The only Nikon camera i saw at the spec you mentioned was the 3400d.
Maybe you can give the model numbers of other makes.
The Pentax k70 body only is available at £509.00.

rather than develop the company , they set about asset stripping it , and placing the bare bones for sale.
The big consumer electronic companies seem to have no intrest in Pentax.
But Ricoh took up the challenge of rebuilding Pentax and did so when the market was rapidly changing.
I am sure when Ricoh purchased Pentax , they had a business plan , which is already in progress.

My K3ii failed on a recent holiday to Zimbabwe where spray and rain from Victoria Falls entered the camera which was being used with the WR 16-85mm lens. The LCD steamed up within 15 minutes of being at the falls! The camera was 18 months old and it killed the light meter. For the rest of the holiday I used manual - never had to think about exposure so much since the early 1980s!
Pentax are not interested in honouring the warranty and say it was being used in conditions it could not cope with. It is sold as being able to be used in 'severe conditions including rain'. My dispute with Pentax has been going on since late February and as yet, despite repeated attempts by Johnson's (the official repairers) over the last week to get a final decision from Pentax as to what refurbished K3ii body they are going to offer me (for which I am being asked to pay) they have not even bothered to reply to Johnson's. Truly dreadful customer service by Pentax - in fact I don't think it could have been worse.
In short, based on my experience, users of the K3 should not trust the weather sealing.
state the issue should be taken up with the retailer

What condition is the super tak 50 1.4 in and does it come with the original caps.
What colour is the 77mm1.8 and the da70mm f2.4. and what is the condition.
Since you always have good Pentax gear to sell, may I have your ebay id.
