Software - General / Lightroom after Photoshop - not before

« on: August 10, 2011, 16:53 »

I'm using both photoshop and lightrom, usually we use photoshop after lightroom for final tweak / adjustment. but in my case, I have heavy photo manipulation in photoshop that lightroom can't do.

however, after it finished, I feel like I want to adjust again lightroom.
the question is, is it okay? will there be any quality drop or sumthin like that?
any special trick?

General - Stock Video / Hybrid Camera for Stock Footage

« on: August 10, 2011, 00:29 »

I'd like to explore my possibilities to selling footage. My background was from production house, but I don't have big camera with broadcast quality.
My personal camera is Sony NEX-5 (I have Canon 60D but it's heavier than NEX-5 and I don't have shoulder rig :p )

I noticed there are alot of underground movie made with Sony NEX-5 on YouTube.
My question is, does hybrid camera like Sony NEX-5 has capabilities to do stock footage?
I know I have to change the lens with better one so it'll have DoF (movielike).
But how about the sensor / quality / resolution etc from the body itself?

I hope someone can enlighten me before I start to shoot... Thanks alot guys!

General Stock Discussion / Asia's related images - good market?

« on: August 08, 2011, 02:45 »

Hi,

I just started on microstock world couple months ago and this is my 1st post here.
I'm from asia (Singapore), would like to know if you guys had experience / knowledge about image that related to asia, e.g.; asian model, asian curency, asian places, food etc. Are they good in microstock market?

So far I only tried my son as a model, and it's very slow. Is it worthed if I hire a model? Or only western images have a good selling?

Thanks guys!
