hi guys,
my first intention with this post was to tell how i'm surprisingly growing more fond of using my red camera for fashion, but now it also became to prove that fashion ain't dead with the red camera.
browsing through this forum i saw people question the red and fashion photography and for me it's sparkling and alive!
here is some examples on how i more and more use my dsmc1 dragon to mainly do fashion films, but second pull frame grabs for the client, and kind of use it as a 'secondary still camera'.
the sharpness (plus the lack of it) and feel i get from the red, is something i have difficulties getting with my dslr.
shots like these don't come as intuitive with my dslr because of auto focus, and i love to pull focus manually on the red over a dslr somehow:
here is an example on colours and tones:
shot on my sony a7rii:
shot on the dragon.
and i prefer the dragon tones any day!
i feel i probably figured how to get my frame grabs so sharp as i want them so they really can compete with the dslr cameras out there.
check the sharpness on this beauty project. feel free to open it in full res and zoom in:
here is a short i shot in Zambia at the worlds largest emerald mine. pretty intense!

and here a bit of recent work where i used frame grabs as final deliveries - beware these are not the retouched versions, but raw conversions only:
