http://gizmodo.com/5060074/amazing-tilt+shift-time +lapse-videos-make-lilliputians-of-us-all Gizmodo today had a post about Tilt Shift photography. Needless to say I thought it was really cool. I have done a little reading on wikipedia to find out what it is, but I don't know the real world complexities of doing it. Are the lenses expensive? Is it time intensive? Anyone here ever try it? I am not a shutterbug so this is just a curiosity for me. | ||

Stunning. A mac laptop will shoot time lapse. Guaranteeing that the camera will not move AT ALL is the hardest part. The lenses are hardware (I assume) I think these have had some post production helpage too - or - its the effect of the hardware being area based. If you draw a line where the water starts to blur there are parts of the boat closer but blurrier.  I posted up how to apply gradient blur some time ago. I could get that same effect in batch processing. Would take a while though. Still stunning whatever the mix. | ||

Here's some here: http://photography-on-the.net/forum/showthread.php ?t=510128 And: http://www.recedinghairline.co.uk/tutorials/fakemo del/ Mostly, you need a wide angle lens, for the best effect, and be at an angle above the subject. Then, you need a very shallow DoF, then use the lens blur too to make an even shallower DoF, and the gradient tool to smooth out the blur. (Message edited by brinnutz on October 08, 2008) |
