I've had my FZ 300 for almost two years and enjoy it very much. I do keep coming back to your videos to refresh my memory on how to do this and that. Thanks for the great series of tutorials.
Hi Graham, thanks to your videos I am able to get better pictures with my FZ300 than my Nikon D600 full frame camera. I purchased your book, which has been most helpful, but still enjoy your videos. I appreciate your clear, concise videos. Thank you.
Lots of good tips for handling less than optimal conditions like subject motion and high contrast lighting. Despite the difficulties posed by the breezy day, you managed to get some nice images. Obviously overcast, still days simplify things a lot. For any serious macro shooting I've tried, I find that focus stacking is almost essential to address the razor-thin depth of acceptable focus. I seem to recall in another video you mentioned working on an automated focus rail so maybe you'll be covering focus stacking in a subsequently. Another very informative video in the series. Thank you!
I find your educational videos so exciting and motivating. I recently acquired a FZ80 and I am learning so much from you. Incidentally I had no idea that a snail could look so attractive.
Olá! Seus videos são muito importantes para quem tem a FZ82, mas como não possue a opção de legendas automáticas, não podemos entendê-lo. Seria possvel permitir que a legenda automática fosse ativada? Obrigado!
Love your videos, I own FZ82 and FZ300 , raynox DC250 - hard thing to use, but needs hard work to achieve, and for me its abou that, using more poor material then the pros , but achieving almost as great pictures because of the hard and focus work I put in. And aboutt cheating by changing flower position or a leave that is in the way of the flower you want to take, I often am harsh on myself and say to myself 'I'm a CHeater!!' LOL but hey , its about the end result
I feel like I'm with you on a photo-shoot as you explain your techniques. A question . . . when you attach the close-up lens, do you still keep the camera in close-up mode (flower icon)?
I take pictures of flowers and have to avoid direct sunlight by finding my subjects in open shade or a cloudy bright day. The hand held diffuser you had looked like just the ticket to help with that problem. I searched Amazon for 30 minutes and was unable to find one like it.
Thanks Graham for your video! I was wondering what macro results you will get when moving the FZ300 camera closer to the subject, about 1cm, or 3cm for the FZ10002. Any advantage or disadvantage comparing to your trial conditions?
Hi Graham, I enjoy your articles, you may be able to help me sort out my problem, I have a Lumix DMC-FZ200 I am trying to have someone confirm if my Lumix sun hood will fit on the Lumix lens protector tube if I purchase this item, I have tried asking this question but can't get a confirmation, thanks Graham
if you are referring to the LA7 tube which is used to support telephoto lenses etc, then no the hood does not fit on this device. It is only used to hold the heavy LT55 lens
