Another newbie here! :mrgreen:
I've been on the Trex600 forum, but have been lurking here too.
I am a professional wedding photographer and the production manager for a large japanese photography company. I have been doing this since 1994 but have been interested in photography my whole life. Right now I have a bladeCPpro, CX2 and a BT corona(nonAP for now) but I do have a trex600 coming in.
The president of my company really wants me to hurry up and get a camera in the sky. He'll even help with the funds :D
besides weddings we also do Japanese tour group photos at various locations. We do this one companys photo with 2,000+ people every year! we always rent a skylift platform.
We also shoot the Sony open golf touney in Hawaii every year for the past 6 years hired by Sony Tokyo. Its going on right now. one week of shooting golf all day,then shooting dinner and awards parties at night. No need for helicam tho. too dangerous :twisted:
So please, feel free to ask me any PHOTOGRAPHY questions. No heli questions as I am still quite green. But I will be asking you guys a lot of AP questions tho :wink:
Oh yeah, one more thing.
Don't ask a pro photographer about consumer/prosumer level cameras cause usually we just don't know. :arggg: I can't keep up with all the endless new cameras being released! :dontknow
So, if you want to know about pro 35mm, med format, Digital SLRs, or photoshop, i'll be happy to help :D
Thanks.

Welcome to the group, you will find the freaks are a great bunch, lots of experienced APer here. Always good to have a pro camera guy to bounce questions off of.

Absolutely! Askman is right on the money! Poles are a cinch to use, especially in the situations you described. Here is a shot I took today. It's as easy as buttering bread :)

:lol: Well I do what I can. Everyone is a noob at some time. They do not really need responses that is why they are stickies ;)

The Freaks helped me A LOT when I was a noob and they still do now that I am 'so-so'. I have a great time with everyone so I like to spread the love :smokin:
