Really awesome pics man. What's the cheapest camera that can take some nice pics like this? Never really got into photography until I started taking pictures of my figures and wilderness a while ago. But I've just been using my Droid.

One tries. :)

It varies, sometimes Photoshop, Lightroom and Aperture.

Really nice pics vodoun, these and the Scarecrow/Demon bats pics you did are fantastic.

Gracias, though I don't have Demon and Scarecrow yet. Hopefully I'll be able to shoot them in a few weeks time, Spider-Man too.

I really can't recommend as what works for me wont work for you and vice versa as well as the feel for the camera. The feel is the most important or the two can't become one with it. Personally I prefer Canon. I'm still learning myself with camera's. Even my point and shoot Fuji camera turned out some really nice shots, like so... this with the lens blurring filter.
All I can recommend is research your gear for what appeals to you in a camera, what features you want and don't want. It was the only way I found out about it.

I too never got into photography until I started collecting figures/diecast.

It is indeed a DSLR, 18MP. My first in fact. Spent a few years learning point and shoot photography. Still learning to this day. Saving the really good ones for such occasions. :)

I always loved seeing peoples shallow DOF shots on flickr and always tried to achieve it with my Fuji. It never worked. It just never had the hardware, I think because the lens in it from what I read years ago it just wasn't capable to allow so much light in due to the size of the fixed lens. Drove me batty that I had to try and Photoshop it. Now I can do it without any manipulation. :D

I usually turn the sharpness right down on the camera and do any sharpening tweaks in post processing. The camera makes them too sharp for my liking making it look too real as if you were watching it live. I like a bit of softness to it as if it was studio like or something?

Otherwise it becomes too retina sharp that it nearly hurts my eyes looking at it, like so and so...
 
Great shot Vodoun!! I hope to achieve this quality oneday. Im getting a little better. Ive heard that its all in the type lens and not how many pixles that your camera has.

Thanks man, seems like overall the reviews are pretty positive.
Wondering, like fiend, if the MP's count for anything besides making prints? Does the amount of them make for better pictures at all? Or is it just a marketing tool? There's more expensive cameras with less MP's which is kinda weird. Am I missing something?
:dunno

Most cameras on the market have plenty of pixels unless you want to print billboard size pictures.

I would say the lens is far more important. And you really need something that will let in tons of light like vodoun says. Which pretty much means a DSLR (not to say a point and shoot can't take decent pictures).

I'm constantly struggling to get a narrow depth of field with my point and shoot, but a DSLR will make it easy. Just can't afford one right now. Spending too many monies on toys. :lecture
 
So these are with my 8 MP Droid. Do you think that a 16 MP would make a difference in quality and noise reduction.

Here's my top-o-the-line studio set-up.

I'm NOT a photography expert, but I'm pretty sure Megapixels has nothing to do with quality and noise reduction. The amount of pixels only effects resolution - meaning the more pixels you have the larger you can blow it up (or the more you can crop it) without it looking... well... pixilated.

Honestly, 8 MP is plenty. That's not the problem. The problem is it's a phone. :p


Quality and noise reduction has more to do with the settings on the camera. Personally, I got rid of the graininess in pictures primarily by reducing the ISO setting to 100.

This is what I do, its seems when I increase it it does the opposite. My camera is a Cannon I dont know the model, Im at work and cant check but it has a lot of settings: Night,Day,Kids and Pets, Auto, Manual atc. I alway put it on manual because I can control everything, I fiddle with it until I get what I want.
