Questions about the shoot- I plan on recording a video today answering questions about this shoot since there are so many people wanting to know a lot of behind the scenes stuff.....so please post your questions as a reply to this comment. I will answer your questions in the video I make today...:)
Thanks!
Jason
Hey Jason!! Do you have news about specs of the 6D2?.. ;) haha...
Why didn't you try Ken's camera with your own SD card and take some files home to see if you thought medium format had any advantages?
Jason you should check out a race at Keeneland during the spring meet (4 or 5 weeks before derby). Hope they wont chase me away at the horse park now if I bring my camera.
Are you and Ken bros now? ;) no seriously just curious why you made the decision to shoot natural light?
I just have to say Kudos on keeping your composure, and being really cool when interacting with him. How did you keep your composure when reviewing his photos and the settings they were shot at???
I'm floored, like I can't make sense of what he was trying to do.
Ken's shots are AMAAAAZING, for a five year old with a 1978 Kodak instamatic with a through and through viewfinder. Epic compositions and shadowy exposures with that incredible "beauty box" he's wielding.
You would be angry too if you paid that much for camera gear & still took bad pictures
Couldn't had said any better lol
🖐🏿🤣👍🏿
LOL, I was wondering all this time why he is angry! now I know why.
On point...100%...mr. obtuse and lazy beggar, and those are AP's best traits...
AP is such a failure in life; and NO, he is not a published author. He is "self" published lol... that's like calling yourself a "chef" because you can cook ramen.
Comment on the shoot- I wrote this on my blog and have also written it on Facebook. But I wanted to leave a comment so people can see it here as well. I'm grateful that Ken took me up on the offer to meet and shoot. It took courage for him to do so and I applaud him for doing it.
I found Ken to be nothing but kind, courteous and very sweet. Ken chose to send in his shots unedited, while I edited my shots. Those were decisions that we both made. There were absolutely no pre conditions to this shoot. We could bring whatever gear we wanted and edit the shots however much we wanted.
Ken focuses on gear, I focus on shooting. As a professional photographer and shooter I choose to finish my work. Ken shoots far less and chose to post his shots unedited.
To be honest with everyone, I really could care less how great Ken's shots turned out. I was so happy to see him out there and shooting which is something I've been challenging him to do for years. He earned my respect for his courage to do this, not for any photography skills that he possesses....great or small.
I'm sure we'll have comments positive and negative....but my hope is that we can look at this event as a positive of two former rivals coming together and sharing a great day together. I'll ask my followers to please be respectful with your comments towards Ken. It's fair for anyone to say what they think of the video and shoot, but I just encourage my followers in Fedora Nation to keep it classy.
Let's be the example of the best photography community out there....because that's what I'm trying to build...::)
Thanks,
Jason
Jason Lanier your a real person true to what you say I would love to go do a work shop one on one training if I had the money any loved your show today good on ya mate James from Australia
you're an absolute gentleman...
Jason Lanier you are a better man than I am and really who cares if he is not a professional photographer.
Jason Lanier my respect to you Jason,
Great stuff Jason,
*Ken takes all his shots in Trash Priority Mode*
He is definitely not lorded
Well at least we now know why Ken doesn't post any of his work. Absolutely terrible, overexposed rubbish. Not even in the same ballpark.
Superformance72 -ouch thats hurt
Tell it how I see it champ. The composition was terrible, the exposure was woeful and that "flash" was so hot on the models face. There was nothing professional about his work, hence why he doesn't post work for anyone to see.
I as a hobbyist take better pictures than him with my Sony A 700 and Sony A77 camera
I preferred Ken's photos and personality. The other guy is very vain... And has a poor sense of humor. Not to mention, the subjects here are so pointless and empty. The other guy had very nice lighting, but the suffocated framing, lack of attention to 'looking space' made his compositions largely incorrect. If I shot this, I'd be very uninspired. Boring subjects, complete lack of story and you're just annoyed because Ken exposed this situation in his photos perfectly.
@@boxeriain *Your trolling is as horrible and Ken's photos*
Every HSS photo he took had a blown out sky. I think he missed the point of HSS.
Damn it, Jake, I was hoping someone would point that out. Ken's HSS, was laughable at best.
I thought I was the only one who cringed at that. HSS with blown sky seemed pointless. I would have rather seen the same poses with natural and HSS.
Right so I'm a video/film guy so forgive me if I'm wrong but I guess the point of hss is to match the exposure of the subject to the sky so you blown out neither? Sort of like using large HMIs as fill during day exteriors?
There are specific problems when using a flash in conjunction with the sun or bright ambient light when you have a camera like the GFX which has a dismal standard sync speed of 1/125th of a second which is the fastest the camera can shoot without the flash hitting part of the shutter apparatus as it moves out of the way to reveal the film/sensor. Just thinking about the sun exposure for a second at 1/125th with Iso 100 you need an aperture of f16 for proper sun exposure, since in stills the flash exposure is controlled by the aperture alone, you need a very powerful flash to get to f16 at any reasonable distance. So high speed sync is used for two reasons, one would be to shoot outside in the day with a shallow depth of field (wide aperture), so some flash companies make HSS available on some cameras to get a faster shutter sync speed, maybe even up to the fastest shutter speed of the camera, which allows you to bring the f-stop down. The other use is to be able to bring down the ambient light to below the flash exposure without needing gigantic lights. So if you are shooting on a sunny day, and you can get HSS to get you a shutter speed of 1/500th of a second, at Iso 100 you’re at f8, which is somewhat reasonable for a 500 or 1000w/s flash. then, if you want to turn down the ambient you would increase the shutter speed to 1000th leaving the aperture at f8 so now you’ve kept your flash exposure the same but the sun is now a stop below, you can increase this by another stop if you want.
@@bngr_bngr just using it correctly works wonders
I can imagine Polin doing a critique of this and going "Snapshot..... snapshot.....snapshot" on all Ken's images.
They were bad.
Ken is not half the portrait photographer than Jason Lanier is, so I wasn't expecting much. But what I learned from this video is that the Fuji Medium Format mirrorless system is obnoxiously large and I am not likely to ever use it. And where are the zooms? Medium Format should be aimed at landscape photography, and yet we use zooms in any serious landscape photography.
Pradhyumna Gupta hahhahahaaha
Jared Polin's photography ain't very good either. All he does is point the camera, take the picture without thinking of context and composition, and either boost the contrast in LR or turn it into B/W. But compared to this guy, he does not look so bad. Lol
I was thinking the same thing! Snapshot...yeah snapshot...eh snapshot. Lol.
Now that would be entertaining. The model doesn't come out at all well its like she feels awkward as much as he does. Whereas with Jason he does make her look good. I like Angry but he's not at home at this. Probably intimidated by it all.
You have to work full time to make the gfx look so mediocre
This video is the proof that gear does not matter,....
That poor 10k$ GFX set
Ken is the absolute epiphony of "all the gear, no idea" - the man has absolutely no clue what he is doing, its a shame because people out there are actually listening/watching that man for guidance!
They call it "Big hat, no cattle" in Texas
And you need an epiphany on how to use the word "epiphany". I think you meant epitome... 🙄
After an evening on researching Ken I’ve concluded two things; he’s all the gear and no idea and; I’m gonna go ahead and ignore his z6ii review and pull the plug and get one.
Angry seems clueless. Who shoots at 3200 iso and a shutter speed of 1/2900 when the subject is stationary? What would be the purpose of that? Like they say in Texas “he’s all hat and no cattle”.
I was hoping they'd swap cameras just for the hell of it. I wanted to see what Jason could do with that Fuji.
Wow, you're right. They definitely should have done that!!
same
that would have made this video worth watching.
Alix Jules If they had switched, the shooting would have finish as Ken would have been really confused trying to work outside the automatic settings...
Alix Jules. So was I.
3200 ISO on a sunny day and wide angle for portraits? I guess I've been doing it wrong. haha.
Inexcusable!
Why not try 100
KW has no idea of correct High Speed Synch techniques... you increase your shutter speed over the normal flash synch speed to control the ambient light levels, but instead KW hugely increased the ISO settings!!
Thought i would finally watch this video in its entirety, and what a complete and utter shocker it is!
1, Kens white balance is terrible, too green, which is caused by all that foliage and green grass, no compensation for the green hues, at all.
2, Where is the bokeh? Images that needed the bokeh lacked bokeh immensely, the back grounds were so untidy and distracting.
3, Kens light mod just failed big time, too many shiny skin reflections, sometimes to the point where her skin looked greasy, such ugly highlights/hotspots!
4, Also on the subject of that light mod, surely the reason to bring in a second light source for a shoot is to bring overall balance to an images exposure? Why then, are the backgrounds all blown out? Where is the detail in the sky? Why are the images incorrectly exposed?
5, He never stoops down lower to get a flattering angle, all his images were shot from above her eye level, which does work well, but sadly not in any of kens images here, the poses look so awkward from that angle, the image of her with her arms up and over her head by the barn door was so amateurish that it was embarrassing.
6, He does not fully understand what high key exposures really are, as id evident around 18 minutes into the video.
7, He seems like he is using a wider angle lens when he gets in close, the distortion to the poor girls face makes her look like a stroke victim ffs!
Photography is not an easy thing to learn i guess, but surely with all the years he claims to have been a photographer, surely his images should be much, much better than this? His skill set seems to be just one notch up from the guy who uses on-camera flash to shoot a sunset! The images look like my images when i first picked a camera up over 30 years ago! There is absolutely no finesse in his work, no artistry, no creativity (aside from that silly light mod), and barely any understanding of exposure if these images are anything to go by.
Taking photography advice from him is like being given cookery lessons from someone who cannot boil an egg properly!
jason got the clarity slider on +1000
looks like shit yeah
He had no idea what he is doing 😂😂😂 these pictures are worse than mobile pictures
Ken produces the average photos for an amateur, and Jason the average photos for any photographer with a decent amount of time in the bussines. No saying that they suck, but i dont see anything special either...
to me Ken's tactics more forgiven due to lack of processing and independence from fat time stamps of pop beauty processing
Both suck xD
Just say it. They suck.
No need to be shy. Surely we won't be the first nor the last to say that lol.
@@myman7336 Lol, thats true, to be honest both sucks hahaha
Did Jason say we should have said we were Fro Knows and Matt Granger? LOL
Tony and Chelsea Northrup :-)
Teddygoesfishing @ 21:25
I heard that too. LOL
Ace Name dropping! PMSL
Jesse H actually @ 21:18
but thank you Jesse for recognizing. I would have missed it otherwise
I just seen a video Ken made on lighting recommendations.. He talks about how you really need fast recycle times so your not left standing there looking like an "idiot" waiting on the flash to recycle. But, here he is walking around with a lampshade on a string. I really am at a loss for words.
Ken reminds me of just about every camera salesman I've ever known. FULL of BS from the word go and can't take decent photographs to save his life no matter how much he spends on gear or how many hundreds of cameras and lenses he buys. He couldn't have enough time to get to really know a particular camera for having to rush out and get the next best thing.
Jason, im loving your charisma and approach towards uniting talents together.
i hope you guys can do it again, and with others. looks like you guys had a fun filled day and it can turn into something much greater if we all were to come together and make videos for everyone to see and learn to work together.
you got to have balls when you shoot ISO 1000 in bright daylight :D
Oh man.. I'm speechless. I feel sorry for people who pays to go to your workshop..
whaaaat? am i in another dimension? jason and the angry photographer together in a photoshoot? shooting the shit and whatnot? i just dont beleive my eyes
Lol There may be something we don't know.
Jason you are a pure savage. I like that you didn't hate on him and with pleasent manner you proved everyone that skill matters the most. Ken photos look like taken with a point shoot camera even though it was 6500 $ medium format. To be honest your photos looks more retouched than his, but still better composition, bokeh, general vibe and overall quality. Anyway, great video and thank you!
I disagree. I have plenty (hundreds!) of photos with a point and shoot Canon that are far better than these here from the GFX.
Give me a break Jason pictures look like crap so it was Ken's okay I know you guys like Sony crap plastic crap but that's very unfair for for Ken either one of them to good pictures come on now they where average
Boy oh boy, Ken.... better keep your ass behind your desk in the basement and never open that door again! And please never get your gear out ever again! This was embarrasing!!!
the thumbnail is so savage lol
It was done to clearly discredit the GFX and show off the a9. This is not a fair comparison. A Phase in the hands of an amateur shooter can look worse than a cell phone camera.
Duane Eues - Not fair my as*, Ken used Flash with Beautydish
Duane Eues i'm pretty sure Jason doesn't even care about the damn camera. this is about something else ;)
Angriest, I'm talking about the cameras not the skills of the photogs. Clearly Jason Lanier is the better portrait shooter at least by the results of this thing.
Duane Eues -
yeah I know youre talking about the gear not skill,
so lets recap ;
A9
VERSUS
GFX + Flash + Custom Beauty Dish
and you still complain ita not fair for Fuji GFX ? LOL dont be a loser please
AP completely blew out the skies.. he doesn't know what he is doing. Only reason he is known is because he posts religiously on youtube. As a photographer he makes a good camera collector.
Jason Laniers exposure of Ken Wheelers photographic ability:
“You have been weighed; you have been measured; and you have been found wanting.”
I bet Wheeler regrets doing this photo shoot. Clearly, he is no photographer. Not even a good amateur one. Lanier probably could have beaten Wheeler with a smartphone or a ten year old compact camera. I actually feel bad for Wheeler.
Don’t feel bad for him, he’s obnoxious
Ken is definitely not a photographer. He's a tech guy.
There's a huge difference between Jason's photos and Ken photos! can you see the difference between photographer and gear collector? good job Jason!
Those high-key shots from the stable are amazing. Absolutely gorgeous.
Jason is so 100000% right on, k** needs to go to every one of Jasons workshops.
Love it how Jason walks of and Ken manages to almost talk himself into trouble then almost gives the cops ID when he had no reason to.
Clearly, the objective of this video is to show how well two leaders in UA-cam photography can come together and settle their differences. A great job all around. We need more positivity in our world like that shown in this video. Thank you Jason and Ken!
Idk for me this is the most subtle way to show you have no respect at all for someone. And I totally endorse this. Ken is completely lost. ;-)
E Gamarro I'm presuming that is tongue in cheek, Lanier totally humiliates AP publicly.
Agreed, i am a fan of both and didn't get the impression that it was a shootout. And even if it was, i could care less who would win. I don't think the photos are really representative of the equipment or the operators.
But boy was this something, didn't see this coming !!
Ken is not a photographer. He is like me Amature. The only thing is, that he will be bitching about Sony, no matter how good Sony is. He is only good to talk what he hears and not what he experience.
I was watching his some videos and that what he does. Even so many times he talks but shows someone else's pictures but not his.
Agree. Two leaders my ass.
Got my popcorn for these comments ;)
Sully Cortez im just here for the comments
lol
;)
Me too..
13:15 "say something funny I like the laugh" - how about that: You're using ISO 3200! lol
in broad daylight LOL
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
1/2900th sec, f/4, iso 3200...um...what the FUCK? It's like he had the camera in full automatic mode and it just said fuck it, we're playing exposure roulette. Also, I don't think he edited his images at all.
adamaj Guys I am loving this...
He doesn't even know how to edit his images. Wheeler is Not a photographer.
Robert Thompson and don't forget the magnetic fields...
I think he fed the horses with magnetic "haye"... then Ken was shooting surrounded by magnetic poo...
you carnt read the intro??
Jason you just destroyed him !!! Seriously Ken Wheeler You have no clue whatsoever about photography !!!
I just can't stop my Rolleiflex from laughing........
The Angry Photographer's response and interaction with the police is hilarious, he's such a wimpy suckup. No backbone Wheeler!
Yeah man he flapped it!
Machiavellian move by Mr Lanier. What a way to expose him. Well played my friend, Batman would be proud (?)
On the plus side, now he has more photos to make prints of.
Ken did not edit photos out of camera just so you all know. You can do allot in Lightroom and photoshop. I would like to see Jason's raw file for the real comparison on images. If you are comparing camera gear show raw files.
Alex Kuzmenko You dumb arse. This is exactly why he didn't edit his photos, because he knows he cannot match JL on photography and lighting, and it's easier for some dumb idiot to protect him, stand up for him, by saying " the images weren't edited, I'd like to see both sets of images unedited". Why do you think that JL did this episode of videos with the meet up and now photo shoot? It was clearly to shut his fat tattooed arse up, once and for all, whether it's regarding JL and his hat or regarding Sony. JL chewed him up and farted him out.
Composition, sense of depth, overexposing, guiding the model is not done in LR and PS
I just think the 2 photos that are compared at the front of the video are misleading that's I'll I'm saying.
Alex Kuzmenko...Jason handicapped himself by not using any lighting equipment. That's like going into a fight with one hand's tied behind one's back.
Editing?; that's just one more thing Ken can't do shit with either. See....he's fucking GEAR Head. Only. Save the real shooting to the real photographers out there.....he loves the "image", because he can't produce the results.
Okay if I were Fujii I would request that those images be removed. That was quite embarrassing. Is he shooting in program mode?
if you notice AP really doesn't understand light . Apart from incorrect exposure he also doesn't pay attention to the light falling on the models face. In many of AP pics the nose has an ungainly highlight which ruins the photo. Jason saw this and his pics look amazing. I think its time AP really goes back to the drawing board and learns about light.
also he uses iso numbers i wont even dare use, in direct sunlight, with hss...lol
Why is Ken using 1000 ISO on such a bright day
Jason Lanier sets a good example for his people, he was very kind to AP during this shoot and I can't sing his praises enough!
M7CVZ I shot this video, it was very cordial and professional so try again.
I think Jason here did a masterpiece of diplomatic-cold-war.
Basically you reach him his place asking what is his problem. The guy does not have the balls to tell the same shit while looking into your eyes. First win.
Then you cordially invite him out for a shoot, masking everything like comparing two cameras. The difference between the skills of the two photographers is too huge that it does not even need to be stated anywhere. Jason wins hands down, without even having to state that. The images speak for himself. Second win. Last nail in the coffin.
Sorry for Ken, because this was a perfect ambush. Jason outsmarted you here.
I'm just amused that ken talks so much crap and just manages to reinforce the truth that good gear doesn't make good photos.
perfect point
It's good to see Ken shooting, i hope you will do more of those in the future, why not a show or a discussion on photography art, gear or anything between you ....... great stuff .....
First he needs to learn how to shoot...
He is a nerd, and a maker he has a lot of lights mods, on his channel, photography is like a muscle you have to workout a lot to be good at it, from the video, it doesn't seem that he is practicing a lot ........all his shots the sky on them is overexposed and yet his "beauty box" could do HSS, too bad ....
JBCool0729 that would take away all the fun we had in these 30 minutes. ;-)
Very nice video ! So cool to see you having a great time together :D
The angry photographer gotta get his game up! Compared to Jason's shots it's clear that he's more of a gear guy not a photographer.
I agree ten fold,,,all that gear talk and no skills smh.
Keep in mind that he didn't do any post processing on these images.
I don’t think Ken claims to be the best photographer. He just loves gear, which is fine. Some people enjoy photography for the technical aspects of it, and others are more artistic. I am also more of a technical guy! I like testing lenses and checking out their quirks. I don’t pretend to know how to take the best pics in the world.
Yes and the lens on the GFX isn’t the best for portraits
And if you watch his slimy channel you will see he only puts up other peoples shots.
good video showing it is still the man.s skills behind great photos and not just expensive gear.
What's the point of using HSS if overexposing all photos? Fortunately talent cannot be learned. I see one professional and one (bad) amateur photographer...
HSS and 3200 ISO... help me understand.
He had no idea what the point of hss is for!!
Yeah, Shoot flash at HSS and the beautiful blue sky is blown out. Either not shooting HSS or maybe he didn't have enough flash power with his portable setup.
Random dude you are totally delusional my friend. I am shooting for quite a longer time than you do and I can ensure you that you'd be surprised that even if Jason would give you his settings you wouldn't d be able to replicate his photos. Just ask any folk that has been in one of his photo walks... unless you mean that he sets everything for you and kindly ask you to push the button...
At this distance every speedlite has enough power to balance the picture better.
I follow both guys very closely, and like some others believe that they BOTH have something great to offer. Jason and his vision and compositional & strobe mastery, and Ken with his detailed and accurate knowledge of gear...
I must admit that I was rather disappointed with the results of Ken's images (HSS outcomes could've been much much better) and it was obvious from the video that Jason had the better vision of angles and camera placement for composition..
But nonetheless, Ken's videos are downright hilarious, with some of his one-liners real classics...
Keep it up guys!! After all, Life is Nothing but a Theatre...
Jason, love the way you work with your models. Smooth communication and easy going.
Lewis Alexander Condescension is smooth?
Love seeing you and The Angry Photographer shooting together.
Great shoot, love the images and banter with the three of you. Tiffany is a gorgeous model with many expressions. Loved the comparisons of the the shots and cameras.
These guys both offer a lot of education for the poor boy shooter. Jason's ability can't be denied. Ken is a gear head from word go. You have to wade knee deep in the rants but the guy can teach you about old lenses, speed lights and cameras a working guy can afford. I personally enjoy both of there channels and have learned from both. Have a A6000 with those cheap sony and sigma lenses but boy do my wife and I have a blast. Even without Zeis written on anything. :)
David Payne exactly, ken is not the photographer, he is a technician who knows lenses & cams. we can either exploit what we have our cry over what we lack.
You're correct about one being a photographer and one being a gearhead. The thing is Ken acts like he's a good photographer and that's the bothering part. In my opinion you shouldn't support his channel in any way until the guy stops ranting about "newbie photographers" and realizes he's one of them.
saiiiiiii1 the thing is i watch his channel for technical know how
I don't think you should stop supporting anyone's channel because they rant about newbie photographers. Just because you are a pro doesn't mean you shoot great photographs. I see ton's of pro photographers making crap loads of money with mediocre photos. He's a gear head and a damned good one. I support him because he does provide a great service.
jtabares1 nobody is perfect, everybody and everything has its good and the bads. we can either pluck the good from the harvest or we can keep crying over the bad. nothing is perfect.
Ken didn't do Fujifilm any favors that day. And I say that as a fuji shooter. The GFX can produce stunning images in the right hands. That said it was good to see you two get on well.
Fuji might sue him for malpractice after they see his fiasco of pictures. Good Lord. HSS and ISO 3200.
John Koster you made me laugh myself to death man... lololol. iso 3200? WTF? maybe he was nervous.
can we form a rescue team for the GFX? i think we got Fuji's blessing. haha
Rizvi Rahman lens images looked amateur
Bill Thornhill Agreed Fuji makes great cameras as does Sony. The point is Ken started this war when he has zero talent as a photographer.
I'm a huge Ken fan, you also Jason....I will add you're a class act pro Jason....you're shots are awesome. 🤘🏻🇺🇸🇬🇧🇺🇸🇬🇧
lmao at the Jared and Matt joke
upcoming video: "is it okay to touch the horse" 🤣🤣🤣
Great to see this video Two photographers enjoying photography with the cameras of their choice. I appreciate this because this is supposed to fun. Ken did look out of his element a bit working with a model but he's mentioned he shoots products, birds and landscapes mostly. Intereacting a model is a skill set just like anything else.
The Angry Photographer purchased a Fuji GFX 100 as if that is going to improve his photo-taking skills.
😂🤪😜😲🤣
Thats a 50s. Thr camera is incredible. But the photographer is not
lol, at Jason's face at 3:26 when Ken shows him, "The beauty box."
Thanks for the video, Jason. It is great to see two rivals in the online community come together, bury the hatchet and take some photos!
Some horrible pictures in there. That Ken setup looks rediculous.
geese, look at all the hate, can you not understand this is about building bridges and becoming better as people, not who has the biggest balls, get a grip. thank you Jason and ken for a very entertaining video.
Very cool! I am happy to see Ken out there shooting! Have always been a fan of both channels, so it is awesome to see you guys chumming it up. Keep up the great work!
On a side note... Photos from the 70-200mm G Master still blow me away to this day! Awesome piece of glass, that is for sure.
I enjoyed this a lot! I like seeing multiple photographers shoot the same subject. Well done fellas!
Whoa! What's going on here? You guys squashed your issues with each other? if so, nice to see man.
Positive proof that Ken is a gear guy. To bad he can't use it. He's more into "look at me" than "look at the model"
Thanks Jason and Ken for doing this. I think it is so great to see you guys putting your differences aside and coming together for the sake of photography. I do enjoy watching both your channels. I've learned a lot from both you guys over the years.
I loved this video Jason. Superb. I think you and Ken are really good together as hosts. Thank you for sharing.
Maybe Ken should use his GFX as paper weight in his studio. He's so full of it. Ken better learn a thing or two from Jason on photography and communication. Jason FTW
$10K camera with $0.10 images. 🤭 The least you could have done Jason was to offer AP a free pass to your workshop 😆
Since when is the GFX 50S a $10K camera body??? { $5500.00 } You can clearly see he's not using the GFX 100 which IS every dime of $10K.....!!!! {but point taken still and all.}
One knows how to take portraits and the other doesn't. Hands up Jason, you really know how to make models look unique.
Why is everybody talking about Jason his pictures we're not that good neither they were average I know you you are fans of Jason I can understand that but you guys are being unfair on Ken I'm not a fan of either one of them but for me on this set both of them stunk
As mildly entertaining the spat between Ken and Jason was I for one am glad it's come to
an end. Well done the both of you.
Blackstar 1000 haha if that was true
The angry photographers results were stunningly awful. I am sorry but they were disappointing. I could have done better with my Sony rx10 m4.
Jason, new fan of your work and style. Subscribed and will be pouring over your past content.
The shot at around the 21 minute mark...Tiffany is in total shade lying on the ground. Quick question, I noticed your ISO was at 800 and shutter speed cranked at 1/320 with f/2.8. Is there a reason why you chose to increase ISO and not slow the shutter? Many of the shots prior were at ISO 100...even when she was in the shade. Just curious if there was any kind of technical reason for doing it that way? Was there a concern with catching focus and this was simply a way to guarantee the shot? Thanks so much for sharing the images! I've been shooting for about 6 months now and hope to achieve the kind of confidence you displayed during the shoot. It's obvious you see what you want to capture and know how to direct the model. BTW, your logo rocks man! Excellent branding.
SHIFTING FOCUS Photography 200mm with no tripod
She is filling the frame more in the shot...just didn't know if there was cropping involved. The 200mm focal length makes sense. Is there a rule of thumb for shutter speed ratio to longer focal lengths to cover shake? Since I shoot with a Nikon D800...infamous for mirror slap, I may require a higher shutter to focal ratio??? Or, just use mirror up constantly. lol
Would like to see the difference between the cameras shot by two professional photographers. Jason let's see you shoot with the gfx! :)
Fantastic! Loved seeing you and Ken enjoying life and photography. What a sweet beautiful model as well.
2 bad photographers...
I believe Lanier is really getting his revenge in this series of videos... very, very clever. Ken is going to have to change his UA-cam channel to just "angry"or "hungry" lol
By the way the thumbnail resumes it all...
Hahahaha
lol
I really love how this is the biggest "fuck you" you could Ken possibly give and no one can even blame Jason for this. Brilliant! haha
Led the sheep to the wolf's den.
watch it a third and fourth time, there's so many hidden stuff to discover. i mean even the intro music... lol. this is youtube gold.
I could watch you 2 shoot together all day. Thanks for the video.
I've been waiting a year for this shoot!!
I'll watch it tonight after work.
As well as these two seemed to get along during this video, it's hard to imagine the amount of crap that is now going on between them.
Checkmate. Next up, Jines vs. Forbes. Actually, the psychology of Ken in this situation is fascinating. His body language while the model discusses the challenge in finding his online photography presence, his recap of the police "encounter", his interaction with a fellow photographer at 17:25...in my opinion these are more interesting than video proof exposing his lack of understanding even the basic fundamentals of photography...which has been a long time coming. He should have just brought the X-T2 with a proper lens rather than the statement he tried to make by bringing the GFX.
I would pay good money to see Jines vs. Forbes.
Ken was so awkward.
LOL "you should've told them you were Fro knows photo & I was Matt Granger"!
And again, Sony and Jason win. Great video. And you sir have all the class! Ken was very respectful and kind. Hats off to him.
Ken is on Flickr under the name anankephi.
Goes to show knowing how to compose your shot and work with ambient lighting or lighting in general is EVERYTHING. But i feel like Angry Photog is faking it and this is his character shooting, not him.
Loved this triplet. A very thoughtful, considered and enlightening presentation. So special to see Ken without a blue backdrop or munching on a Sony microphone. It is so valuable to spend almost two hours on UA-cam and come away knowing that you have finally seen the true souls of those in front of the camera. Too many on here burn bridges instead of building or repairing them. Well done both of you.
Jason, are your photos that you posted on this video edited? If not, whats the main difference that made your photos so crisp and vibrant compared to Ken's photo's. Was it the lens or the camera settings or combo a both. There is a huge difference. I shoot portraits with a Sony A6000 and the Sony 50mm 1.8 lens. Would you able to get shots of equal quality using that lens or is the lens you used in this video necessary? I also noticed that you did not use a flash. How did you get such good lighting on her face without washing out the background?
JL led KW by the nose and gracefully owned him. JL being a seasoned wedding photograper is used to shooting in difficult conditions with tight timing, directing untrained normal normal, and getting great results, this shoot is a walk in the breeze for him. KW on the other hand, is struggling.
This whole thing is just awkward.
My favorite video on your channel by far!
Jason’s photos were different class not down to Sony but down to his skills as a awesome photographer. Ken made for Fujifilm GFX look like a point and shoot.
Dont insult point and shoots like that!
