I'm not a professional photographer and nor do I have the equipment or money to get the equipment right now that would allow me to vastly improve my pictures. I actually don't use a Macro function that much at all. I normally take my pictures in a very naturally well lit (outside when I can) areas. If they're taken indoors it's with two light sources (diffused) that have daylight bulbs. I've fiddled with exposure settings as well as saturation levels, half of the problem is that vagarious companies use quite different metals and so sometimes you can struggle to get good pictures off of one batch and then be fine the next. Also as I'm doing this Blog on my own I really don't have the time to spend editing, and photoshoping pictures. If people want to pay me to do this Blog full time I'd consider it, and I'd take some lesson in photography, but as no one does I think I'll stick to doing the best I can. There's no chance I'm ruining the miniatures that I buy either by inking them just so others get to see them better. I had considered it but no way, I'm not made of money and that's just a no, no for me.Frontline Gamerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09110901356802705087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1448296907784874327.post-8888781612990523812012-06-12T16:31:32.846+01:002012-06-12T16:31:32.846+01:00Hmm... Well it sounds kind of harsh when you put i...Hmm... Well it sounds kind of harsh when you put it that way. I would say - just like how you yourself are implying from the above comment - that they are a tad unproffessional. This is fine in itself, but the quality is quite uneven. Some of them are in essence perfect with the setup you have. Yes a light tent would make a huge difference and I definitely think you should make it a project and do a write up about it. Research/builds like that are always interesting to read about and then there are super cheap ones on ebay that are portable if you don't want to make one.<br /><br />That is beside the point of what you can do to improve the photos you currently take though. Here are the most notable problems I see from time to time (specific to minis) and a tip on how to perhaps improve them:<br /><br />A) Not in focus - Take a few more pics. Also it looks like you are using the macro function. Try experimenting taking pics without macro which will give you a wider depth of field and keep more of the picture in focus. Given todays tech you probably have enough megapixels to crop it down and still get a lot of detail in there.<br /><br />B) Too much light/overexposure - Not sure if you are using the flash on your camera/phone, but especially for metals there is too much light being reflected making a lot of pictures essentially pointless since you can't make out the details. I find metals the hardest to photograph. Having read a few mini blogs there is one (that is no more) where he used to wash the minis in black ink essentially to bring out all the detail. That made wonders for the photos. However - I understand you perhaps not wanting to do that to your own minis since you are not getting paid :) <br />The other thing you could do is try and take photos outside during the day so as to get as much natural light as possible which also means you get a lot of indirect light which will soften and remove a lot of sharp shadows and negate washed out detail from a direct flash.<br /><br />The third thing you could do is play around with the exposure settings/white balance on the camera or afterwards in gimp or photoshop or whatever photo program you use. <br /><br />I want to put a disclaimer here though: I am no expert and I don't even have a blog so I am not complaining per se; I appreciate you putting your time into this and I love reading reviews and stuff - but that little extra time in your photos would make this place THAT much better imho. <br /><br />Kind Regards /Greggfx1978https://www.blogger.com/profile/02998331972072734801noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1448296907784874327.post-24661944438038299882012-06-12T12:28:06.399+01:002012-06-12T12:28:06.399+01:00Oh, definitely in for this one.

I haven't entered before - been sort of lurking, but I thought it was time. I am kinda sad I missed the Sedition Wars thing. Awesome looking minis and game - but like you mentioned in one of your posts with that friend of yours sending you unsolicited mails containing awesome looking minis making you wanna buy, but not having the cash - I am definitely in that boat for now.<br /><br />Thanks again. Maybe this is the wrong place to post about this, but I also noted you wanted some more feedback on what your readers want to read about. I love a good review of minis personally - I don't play any games but I collect figures (and sometimes games) purely based on esthetics. Therefore - good pictures of the actual contents is the thing I value most so I can see the quality for myself. The problem is far from everyone takes good pics of minis (me included) and taking pics of metal minis is the hardest, but can be done. Anyway - that's my opinions and "needs" covered :) Thanks!gfx1978https://www.blogger.com/profile/02998331972072734801noreply@blogger.com
