PICS: NBA Cheerleaders, Blazers, Oden, Family. I want a better camera. What to Buy?? - GoFuckYourself.com

boneprone · 06-11-2007, 06:04 PM

Im so fucking confused.. Im a smut peddler but not a photographer. Cameras, photoshoots, etc arent my thing... I Dont plan on making it my thing.

I want a fucking camera for everyday shit. Price isnt an issue. I just want something thats good and practicle. What should I get?

For shit like this.

boneprone · 06-11-2007, 06:05 PM

Im a season ticket holder for the Blazers sit in the 5th row courtside right behind the Cheerleaders. Few feet from the court.

Whats a good camera to get for maximum exploitation of the cheerleaders and to get some good pics of Greg Oden?

Also my kid is almost two now and hes getting more active. My point and shoot digital is having a harder time keeping up and giving me the quality I want.

Michaelious · 06-11-2007, 06:06 PM

Nice pics

munki · 06-11-2007, 06:08 PM

http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/produc...S_Digital.html

Great pics, compact size, and the kit has you ready to shoot on delivery...

Enjoy...

boneprone · 06-11-2007, 06:08 PM

I want to get something that is nice. Digital SLR was a thought. But Id hate to take something so big to a game...

In terms of SLR I was looking at the Canon 30D.. But I dont think its needed? Maybe over kill?

Then I was looking at something like this. Its not an SLR but a step up from the point and shoot.

http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/sonyh9/
or the Canon G7.

I want to continue to provide GFY with better pics this upcoming season.

boneprone · 06-11-2007, 06:10 PM

This was taken with a cheap sonycybershot I bought like 3 years ago.

Well Dunn · 06-11-2007, 06:10 PM

nice pics =) no idea what kinda cam you would need tho

boneprone · 06-11-2007, 06:11 PM

The Pics arent bad. But I think they could be better.

Thanks..
I dont want heavy hitting AaronM kinda technology, but would like to know of some suggestions for a better camera.

The still pics look ok with the point and shoot.. But some of the action shots Id like more zoom. Something that can capture the action better.

boneprone · 06-11-2007, 06:15 PM

Catching moving action at the games in very important to me.

boneprone · 06-11-2007, 06:17 PM

I can catch good pics when the players arent moving around. Like at the freethrow line.

But when they get moving the noise in the pic is really bad. Many times there is a wave or blur instead of an actual body in the pic.

boneprone · 06-11-2007, 06:19 PM

Here's an example..

A very simple pic of this lil hottie "Ione" one of my favorite NBA Blazer cheerleaders..

But the pic is fucking Blurry......

I get a lot of this shit....

Pisses me off.

What a waste!

Spunky · 06-11-2007, 06:19 PM

Sexy looking cheerleaders

boneprone · 06-11-2007, 06:23 PM

So im thinking.
Do I get a SLR? Looking at the Canon 30d or Nikon D80

http://reviews.cnet.com/digital-came...&tag=pdtl-list

or are they overkill??

Would just a minor upgrade to a Canon G7 or Sony H9 be enough?

http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/sonyh9/

OR

Canon G7
http://www.usa.canon.com/consumer/co...odeli d=14321

I dont really want to lug around a pro camera around town to take pics..

Although GFY does like my BP4L family Lifestyle pics.

boneprone · 06-11-2007, 06:26 PM

Here is a good example..

I use the zoom on the camera.. Fuck with some of the settings And the colors are depleated.

Notice the difference.

A waste of a potentially good picture.

boneprone · 06-11-2007, 06:28 PM

And I know even the still pics could be better.

boneprone · 06-11-2007, 06:29 PM

Horrible.

Dont get me wrong, the people in the pics are great. But the photo quality.

Awful..

boneprone · 06-11-2007, 06:31 PM

These are with my Cannon Elph.. FUCK.......

boneprone · 06-11-2007, 06:32 PM

Some come out better than others.

LOL.. This is what I already have..

I have the new Canon Elph 800IS..

And a 3 year old Sony Cybershot.

Both arent really giving me the best of quality.

Especially with sports and moving shots.

needlive · 06-11-2007, 06:36 PM

I like these pics...I love the NBA! No matter what kinda machine they were shot with.

AS do I.

But I want to bring GFY BETTER pics for next season..

My current pocket sized cameras arent doing it for me.

Im just wondering if I need to jump up to SLR? Or if I can go inbetween what I already have and the slr range and get this?

It has a power zoom which is what is attracting me..

With an SLR, its my understanding to get the pics I want I have to screw on some big expensive lens?

boneprone · 06-11-2007, 06:41 PM

Pic from the Front row Courtside seats I sit at a few times a year... (seprate from my 5th row season ticket area)

boneprone · 06-11-2007, 06:43 PM

From inside the Blazer Cheerleader Lounge / locker room.

BP4L

boneprone · 06-11-2007, 06:56 PM

http://www.usa.canon.com/consumer/co...odeli d=15207

This one looks good too maybe.

boneprone · 06-11-2007, 07:09 PM

Come on negros.....

Give me some camera suggestions for indoor, sports shooting with lower lighting..

ITs a great test for a camera.

Whats gunna do it?

lazycash · 06-11-2007, 08:00 PM

Where's the pics of Oden? I'm going to the Vegas Summer League, so I can take a few pics of him for you BP.

C_U_Next_Tuesday · 06-11-2007, 08:15 PM

You need a good zoom and a small light weight camera for the needs of those crotch shots

12x zoom in this bitch

Canon PowerShot S5IS 8-Megapixel Digital Camera

munki · 06-11-2007, 08:16 PM

Might be the time to make the jump to SLR...

abyss_al · 06-11-2007, 08:22 PM

if you enjoy shooting, then move up to an slr

canon 30d and a nice zoom

pocketkangaroo · 06-11-2007, 08:38 PM

Nice seats, I'm trying to get my Bulls season tickets inside the first 10 rows. Not very easy here in Chicago.

Hey is the Sony A100k SLR ok??

Its cheap here at Best Buy and they have a promo where you can get a second 75-300mm zoom lens with it..

700.00

THis is the camera.

06-11-2007, 09:31 PM

I'm curious as well. I have a Canon 20D which is awesome, but isn't too good for taking out into a crowd. I'll definitely keep an eye on this thread.

boneprone · 06-11-2007, 09:54 PM

http://www.picturecorrect.com/camera..._h9_review.htm

im still thinking this is what i need. its new and marketed to soccer moms wanting to shoot sports..

Or in my case as you call them action "crotch shots".

and its not too bulky to draw attention LIKE AN SLR WITH A 10 INCH LENS.

Admit it. You want more Blazer Dancer Pics..

Meet one of my favorites. Brittney..

She's all over my myspace page.

boneprone · 06-11-2007, 10:04 PM

Id like to be able to zoom in more with clarity during the half time shows as well..

I think that factor would make the choice for me if I knew I could zoom in with clarity.

At the moment thats about as good as it gets.

boneprone · 06-11-2007, 10:05 PM

Unless im in my other seats, this is about as good as it gets..

Id like to be able to have a good QUALITY zoom..

Either by SLR lens, or by a less bulky Sony option as ive been talking about.

Where the hell are my photographers?

boneprone · 06-11-2007, 10:07 PM

I want to be able to zoom into Britney's Abs..

boneprone · 06-11-2007, 10:10 PM

And Mel's Boobs..

But when she jumps and as they bounce, I need a good camera that can freeze them for a clear picture.

boneprone · 06-11-2007, 10:12 PM

See... Blurry.......

boneprone · 06-11-2007, 11:34 PM

Ive been reading more and more about the non SLR...

Sony Cyber-shot® DSC-H9 reviews and im thinking this is the animal I need...

boneprone · 06-12-2007, 02:00 PM

boneprone · 06-12-2007, 02:14 PM

Looking at the Nikon d80 also now.

boneprone · 06-12-2007, 02:58 PM

Or the Sony SLR alpha100..

abyss_al · 06-12-2007, 03:03 PM

if you're gonna keep it for a long time and use a lot of the features, mess with different lenses, etc.. I would go with canon slr or nikon slr.. you will have much more accessories to go with (lenses, filters, etc)... pref canon - their navi is a lot easier to use and they are great cameras.. i personally do not sony cameras at all
