Got an awesome new camera strap from Gordy’s last week, so I had to be excessive and take a portrait of my GH1 with the strap.
I have no fancy lighting, so I set a long exposure (3 seconds… the max on my point and shoot) and lit the scene with my MacBook Pro’s screen (the up-lighting) and an iPod Touch (which I had to wave about above the camera). Reflections in the lens are from me waving about a LED keychain with my other hand. Pink highlights are from my magenta hoodie. Worked out quite well!
Also, I’m loving the strap. The new leather starts out stiff and rough, but should wear down nicely (it’s already softening up). The neck pad would feel rough on the skin, except I wear it across my body (one arm through the strap), so it doesn’t even touch the back of my neck. More about it when I actually get to use it more!
