Behind the Scenes with the Canon 5D Mark III

It’s been a busy time and after almost a week of getting the newly released Canon 5D Mark III, I finally found sometimes to sit down and process a few images taken with this already amazing camera and post some images here.

For this shoot, I mainly used my Hasselblad H4D40 but also had the Canon 5D Mark III along for some BTS and Studio shots.

I must confess that this camera has exceeded my expectations. It is very rare that I use Av mode along with the auto ISO feature but for this quick session, it was how the camera was set up: Av mode and auto ISO.

I also used the camera for a few studio shots when the Blad got frozen and jammed my 17″ MacBook Pro… I really enjoyed shooting tethered and now travel on location shoots with my iPad3 (thanks for the SD slot on the Canon 5D Mark III that allows using my EyeFi cards) or my MacBook Air with I can connect to my camera to shoot tethered.

Check these out. Since Camera Raw 7 can not read these files, I had to convert them from Canon’s DPP into JPEG and …. that’s it. Nothing more or less than a converted JPEG from the .CR2 files. Check them out for yourself.

 

Models are Brittney, Erica, Jariah and Melissa.

Hair and Make Up Artists are Amanda Rowen and Jessica Peris

BTS video is Michael Watson

We shot at INJEKTD Studios and the shoot was called RED for Raw, Edgy and a bit BOLD.

The idea behind the name is I wanted to do a shoot with minimum edits (only conversion from Hasselblad .fff raw files into JPEG and … that’s the RAW side of it). The edgy side being that the shoot was planned to be a beauty shoot with really /*&#@:!$$ make up and looks and we haven’t planned any outfit before hand… The BOLD side of the shoot is …. I can’t show it here … yet :o)

ISMA

After an awesome wedding on Saturday (Jess & Jamie’s Wedding), I had a portfolio shoot this morning and a studio shoot in the afternoon.

Couldn’t go to sleep without posting some image from this afternoon shoot.

I named it ISMA, dedicated to the awesome make up artist Isma Majeed. We set up this shoot before Isma when on holidays and exchanging ideas during her holidays.

Isma came back from her trip with some awesome outfit and jewelries and we really had good fun.

Claire, Nina & Sam were the models. Claire & Nina did their own hair and Isma did the make up.

We did the shoot at the Injektd Studio in Mitchell.

Check out some shots coming out of a H4D40.
