Amazing job. I have a little question, for the focus stacking, in this case, you manage the focus with the focus ring on the lens or did you use a micrometric slide?

@botvidsson

On the lens, and that is a bad way. Always use a slider or do it in the software if possible.

I have this from Manfrotto, never used it though www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/554343-REG/Manfrotto_454_454_Micrometric_Positioning_Sliding.html I think it's way to pricy for what you get, probably better to look for some kind of Chinese knock off brand. I started to use a motorized slider from Rhino that works great BUT I just realised that the best and free way is to shoot tethered with the software like Hasselblad's Phocus or Capture One or maybe even the totally free Canon Utility (not sure if it works) and then you just switch the focus in the software!

hey great tutorial. nice to watch :) can I ask u if thats difference in "watch" photography if you have makro lens or not, it would be cool to make dial even closer and see everything inside. Croping not working like that.

@botvidsson

5 жыл бұрын

In this kind of photo you probably don't need a makro lens but as you say, if you want to go close up on the dial you must have a macro lens. If you like to do super macro shots you need another specialised lens, I happen to have that. Yes, maybe it's time for a macro shot next episode! 😃

Nice to see you again, new pretty picture. So how many lights are there? What did the soft light box do, and why did it not appear in the 43 photos that followed. Hope to see the specific position and Angle of the light more clearly. love you

@botvidsson

6 жыл бұрын

Yes sorry, it was a bit unclear. You can forget about the soft box, I did not use that flash in the final shot. So, it's only two flashes. One from top and one for the background. The idea with the soft box was to get a bit more light on the crown side of the watch and then add only that area in Photoshop BUT, I forgot to use the soft box image in the retouching process so. Just forget about that light, it will be more clear when I soon post the retouching video. Thanks /Martin

Where did you get your grey boards from? are they foam boards?

Yes, just regular foam boards. Black on one side and grey on the other. 5mm. In Sweden we call them KAPA board.

Could you explain the part about, your C3 dial setting for live view. This caught my attention. But wasnt able to follow much.

@botvidsson

4 жыл бұрын

Well, I just program one of the modes C1, C2 or C3 so the scene look the same in live view. For example, I shoot in Manual mode at F13, 1/200, ISO100. When turing on live view that settings doesn't work - screen pitch black. I then start to change the settings so I can see the modelling lights in live fire mode. Probably something more like F2.8, 1/200, ISO800, White balance Light bulb or what ever it's called - just changing the settings so it looks the same in live view as when taking a shot in Manual mode. And saving this setting to C1-C3. Hope you got that... it's late here in Stockholm... .)

A few questions for ya. How I (amateur photographer) break into doing product photography for businesses? Are you using capture one? If so I heard say that you were going to be doing some focus stacking. Is that capture one? If so do you have any tutorials?

@botvidsson

Yes I use CaptureOne when shooting with my Canon. Focus stacking you do in Photoshop or in Helicon Focus, I have tutorials on that. Look under the playlist retouching tutorials on my channel. Look after this watch and the Photoshop icon.

@@IannWu No, the long exposure lime shot was just to capture the luted index markers on the dial. In Photoshop I added the markers on the first main focus stacked shot. Might make more sense if you watch the retouching video.

Martin you mention in the video that the buckle isn't in focus.Why not just change the f stop from 11 to say 16?

@botvidsson

4 жыл бұрын

You could do that but there's a limit how "high" you can go on the aperture until the overall quality/sharpness goes bad. I don't exactly remember what I said but I guess I stayed at f11 coz we were doing the focus stacking. To get the best quality I should probably shoot at maximum f8 or something like that. Every lens has a sharpness sweet spot, if you focus stack, stay at the sweet spot. When I shot with my Hasselblad I always shoot at f13 or f16, the 120mm lens, sharpness sweet spot.

My friend, where are you settled? I really want to meet you.
