Shutterspeeds for HDSLR filming

1/30 static shots without too much movements otherwise images gets very blurry and looks out of focus. But its actually motion blur while the subject is actually in focus.

1/50 - 1/100 handheld shooting with more sharper images without getting jumpy effect. The faster the shutter the less of motion blur there is.

Everything higher than 1/100 you will get the jumpy action effect, cause there is totally no motion blur in the shots and cause there is no blur that make the movement blend over, it will show a jumpy effect.

When everything is still over exposed you can change your aperture however you can also add an ND filter which lower the amount of light without losing the dof.

New short for Dai Fu Lou

For people in China watch it below with the 56.com player.

A funny comedic short about a funny Cantonese gag / joke about panter print undies 豹紋底褲 which in Cantonese sound like they have two meanings, one is the actually panter print underwear but the other meaning is underwear smelling panter.

Top 3 amateur most used lenses

Top 3:
1. Canon 18-55mm f3.5-5.6 IS
2. Tamron 70-300mm f4-5.6 Macro (1:2)
3. Canon 50mm f1.8 markII

However they are used allot or bought allot by amateurs does not mean they are bad lenses but have a bigger limit than other lenses and mostly the zooms are not really useful at night or low light conditions. However during the daytime they are all wonderful lenses, and mostly you need to learn that certain locations you can use certain lenses and not the other. However if you have a paid job for photography you can better just rent better lenses instead of trying to buy these cheap ones cause of their limits.

Dai Fu Lou Bus app for Nokia competitions!!!

Check for more info at Nokia App comeptition in the link below:
http://www.nokia.com.hk/smartphone

This app is mostly frustration for people riding the bus in Hong Kong mostly no real indications of where you are, and when riding the light / mini bus you need to indicate to the bus driver yourself where you wan to get off. And often on long rides you might fall asleep and miss your stop. With this concept app you would be warned when you are close to your destination so you are warned when to get off on time.
