Fashion models, Budapest

Here is another shot from last week's trip to Budapest, this time taken with a Panasonic GX1 fiitted with a Panasonic Leica 25mm f/1.4 and taken at f/1.4.



To be frank I wasn't very inspired by either the models (definitely on the skinny side) nor my camera work. Although this taken at 1/2500th the girl on the right hand side - her head is movement blurred (maybe only visible when blown-up, but it's frustrating!). They move so fast, not stopping for the cameras at all. And the background isn't blurred nearly enough despite the f/1.4 aperture. I needed a longer lens.

I agree. Sam, Helen and the 75mm produced much better results

Re: Fashion models, Budapest

I'll take a guess Ian and say from the look and pose of them they were fashion models used to the fast pace of the catwalk as opposed to photographic models.

Re: Fashion models, Budapest

Not my idea of models. No dress sense and far to skinny

Unfortunately this is the shape most models want to be, and a lot of young girls get freaked out trying to mimic the sizes.
