A really well done vlog love that Charcoal with the jewellery, and more than that your Hasselblad medium format camera, I have a Bronica S2A medium format film camera myself and love what it produces, mind you it was a fraction of the price of your one there. The image quality you achieve is staggering with that set up you did there. I enjoy watching and learning Karl.
Thank you Ian, I love the Hasselblad for its gob smacking quality but also for its reliability as a work tool. Like you highlight though, fantastic results come down to knowledge rather than fancy kit. How old is your classic Bronica?
@@VisualEducationStudio Absolutely agree with you of course it is down to great knowledge of photography and knowing your gear that you use in the best way possible. my Bronica is getting on a bit being an old film camera, mine is the mkii I believe, the S2A type 2 was introduced in 1972. I hope you don't mind me saying this but funnily enough I have got a series covering landscape photography gear coming out next week on my channel and I introduce the old girl and a couple of images taken from it, if that comment is at all inappropriate by all means please delete, however I believing in supporting my fellow photographers personally. you are one guy I really look up to and have been following you for many years now with out sounding too wierd lol.
So thankful for every minute of your "work" (for a lack of better word). Thankful to Jerry , for his desire to find Abraham and share him with us, Thankful to Ester to making it available to us.
Karl, you used an HC-100 lens for the macro shots. On the video, I can probably still see an H Macro converter working together. A macro lens HC-120, on the other hand, has a close-up limit of 0.39 m. Do you get better results with an HC-100 with the H Macro Converter?
Searching for product and jewellery Photography it could be a challenge. You are bringing a true professional aspect in this field. I am getting ready to sign up with your educational site. However, I am particularly interested not only in those hero shots, but also for my jewellery site, I would like to know if you have any lessons to photograph 100s or even 1000s of items for my website. Can you tell me if you have something for me to achieve uniform, repetitive settings for Plain sterling silver as well as for gems and sparkly stones. Thank you in advance. I have a 5D Mark III, 100 mm macro and 3 studio strobe lights (2: 300W and 1: 600W) Thank you in advance. Daniel
Pretty good results. The focus stack on the rings should be detailed (plus 4-5 shots) smaller focus steps, so you can get rid of the stacking artifacts. Also (I don't know if it is possible with HB cameras) you should focus step tethered therefore you can minimize the camera movement, which I can clearly see while you are jumping with the images. Also there are a few dirty secret 1-click things in post what helps these kind of products pop like crazy.
Hi we can always use more focus stacking if necessary, the internal of the watch one on this page uses about 20 and of course I'd always move the focus from the software! karltaylor.com/objects
Oh I’m sorry I didn’t read this but the manipulation of photo shop to any piece of jewellery is horse shit! That’s the reason why landscape artist all of them everyone manipulate everything and doesn’t show the true picture of anything! Photography now days is bullshit you can manipulate any portrait you can correct your mistakes everything if you are a great photo shop artist then you can make tons of money faking a product!

You are a real inspiration Karl. Enjoy seeing the passion you have for your craft. Really appreciate you sharing your knowledge.
Thanks for the sample video. May use some of the suggestions at a future date on my personal hobby projects with my crop sensor camera.
Some good tips that I can adapt for personal work. May do some research first for my next project Thanks.
Glad it was helpful!

Hi Peter, I have another video on our channel comparing extension tubes to dedicated macro lenses.

Brilliant Karl Thank You!
Thanks for sharing your ideas
Great sharing . Thank you
What software app did you use to edit it?
Great info! How do I find the little hand held chrome reflector you use? Thanks :)
Silver art card, just bend it and stick it to a chopstick.
Wow👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Could you share the lenses and the camera parameters please?
Amazing
