Killer shot right there!

Have you used the Jupiter for video? The aperture doesn't have click stops, if I recall, so that lens may be good for cinematic uses too.

Mucking about with a Nikon D3x + 35mm f1.4G:

^ nice shots! How do you like the D3x compared to do the 1d mkiv?

That second shot is awesome! looks like one of those commercials where the dog is about to talk to you

i've always loved the 35mm primes, one of the best ones out there.

-ed

What an expensive combination.. stunning results. Man I want that 35mm f1.4 =D

I guess you gotta pay to play?

Straight from the camera, downsized so I could just throw it up here. Brothers' cat looked tired tonight.

A few from yesterday's shoot

^ lighting is spot on! Great job

sweet David! did u get studio space? that 2nd one is insane.....

does the girl wear a dress size 6 by any chance and is taller than 5'7" ?

^there was a similar one to that second shot on your flickr that I liked better. The left hand/claw bothers me in this one, but the other shot it was more neutral. Lighting looks really good, nice color in the background sets a good mood.

Jackson: yeah I got a studio space! I don't what dress size she is.. I can ask though!

Civic: yeah I know what you mean about the claw hands, but I really like the hair in that shot.

For the jumping shots, try shooting from slightly below - that will exaggerate the height she is jumping.

David, mind telling us your lighting setup and power?!

Tomasz: I used two white lightning x1600's in two large soft boxes.

One was placed on camera left about 4 ft behind subject at 1/4 power
The other was placed at camera right about 7ft in front of subject at 1/2 power

Camera settings were:
100 iso
1/160 second
f/5.6
Custom white balance w/ grey card

Senna: I was shooting from about waist level.. i couldn't angle the camera TOO high up because I didn't want to miss too much of the background. I was using a black seamless and the studio walls and ceiling are all painted black so it wasn't too huge of a problem if i cut out some of the paper but there was a big fluorescent light in the middle of the room that i didn't want in the frame. Also, I cropped the photos to focus more on the girl.

Jackson: She's a size 0 and 5'2".. i'm a horrible boyfriend.. don't even know how tall my girlfriend is nor do i know her dress size... haha
