Project 13 | Week 3

A BMX stunt biker performing Flatland Freestyle BMX stunts in an underground intersection of walkways and train system. Shooting these bikers in an air-conditioned environment out of the humid Singapore weather is really quite different. However other factors, such as lightning, walking pedestrians adds to the challenge.

Project 2012 | Week 38 ( X-pro1 doing actions shots)

This week, I decide to try something different and use the X-pro1 to capture some actions shots together with the 35mm 1.4. The main subjects are skaters at a skate park in the city. It was a short shoot but interesting and fruitful. As most reviewer commented, the AF on the X-pro1 is “OK”. To overcome the slowness, I use pre-focusing and lots of anticipation to capture the action. Coupled with the OVF, I can see outside of the frame to see skaters coming into the frame.
