i just tweak a little like the exposure and what not. My camera has the fuji simulator the colours are already there. (xuan)

I use use crtl + shift + a hotkey on lightroom to auto edit all my photos for basic editing first then filter out. Once i filter finish, i go through all the photos and make any adjustments such as colour balance, exposure, lighting to get the type of photo I am going for (cyrus)

how do you define your personal style in photography?

how do you define your personal style in photography?

# data[].attributes.body
Personal Style is how you, the photographer, would like the photo, the end product, to look like. (mag)

My style is quite peaceful like the vibe u get after seeing my photos, its just what you want others to see. (xuan)

mine is more like candid and hopefully street next time (annette)

my personal style of photos for outdoor would be a more cinematic/chromatic type of photos when greenery is around (smth like wedding photos u could say). For indoor, I use a speedlight so that I am always in control of lighting, thus this is pretty standard when I am doing event photography. So the personal style i go for in indoor would be using techniques to elevate my photos such as Reflections, rule of thirds, leading lines, the edit is pretty standard for this. (cyrus)

My personal style is spontaneous shots, mostly of interesting details or scenery I may see when I'm walking around SG. (navvya)

Lightroom (Mobile Version, Free & Paid), Lightroom Classic (Desktop Version, Paid) (mag)

Lightroom, Lightroom Classic and Capture One (Lightroom and Lightroom Classic is sponsored by School) (sean)

i love lightroom w all my heart, ive been using it since secondary sch and its pretty easy to learn (i was self-taught) but if uw beginner beginner type, go for snapseed, its kinda like lightroom (its js owned by google) (annette)

Live, Laugh, Love Lightroom. (cyrus)

I had never used an editing software for my photos before but once i joined photography club lightroom became the one for me (navvya)

why the lens look blurry when i take the photo?

# data[].attributes.subject
why the lens look blurry when i take the photo?

# data[].attributes.body
maybe because of your Aperture, as it controls the amount of light and your depth of field (sean)

1) Maybe your Shutter Speed is not fast enough 2) If your Shutter Speed is fast enough maybe your hands are moving too much, reduce camera movements (mag)

1. Your focus may not be on the subject you are hoping for, 2. Your lens is dirty/foggy, 3. Your shutter speed might be too slow/low etc 1/80 so any slight movement would result in your photos being blurry, if your subject is moving, you need a higher shutterspeed etc 1/250 to freeze your subject, using a speedlight can achieve this effect too. (cyrus)

See if ure shaking first cos if ur hand shake and the shutter speed is slow then confirm ur photo will be blurry (that happened to me in sec school and half the photos i took for that event was blurry) (annette)

Very involved you must show commitment love for photography and willingness to priorities the club over some matters (mag)

Super duper involved, you might have to put yourself out there but it’s seriously all worth it in the end and you’ll learn to enjoy the cca more with the extra responsibilities (navvya)

I wanted to explore more hobbies and was inspired by my family members. (xuan)

Was in a photography cca in sec sch so just wanted to know more about it.  (brandy)

Always had a passion in Photography, Videography and All things media (faiz)

because they chose me, jkjk but yes is cuz I wanted to be good in everything including photography and leadership (cyrus)

i was oso in photography club but i rly rly wanted to get in so i only went for photography club trial :) and cos i was kind of the family photographer so iw to explore more (annette)

I had already been in so many diff ccas in pri and sec school but I really wanted to explore my hobby of photography. Joining this club was the best decision I ever made as I had so many opportunities to expand on my hobby. (navvya)

I joined a photography club because I like to take pictures, hence I wanted to learn more skills and meet new people and learn from each other. (jingxuan)

1.5 to 2k including drybox. Drybox/dry cabinet is a must as our humid environment can build up funges without knowing esp to lenses as repairing of camera lenses can cost up to $200 per lens. (Sean)

Any price range is okay, personally 1.5k max is really more than enough for beginners, most importantly is to find the brand and model that you can afford within your means, that is what matters. (mag)

There’s no fixed price range for beginners, but when I started, I used older entry-level DSLRs because they were cheaper. That way, I didn’t feel as guilty if I bought something unnecessary. In the end, they were good enough for me at the time. (faiz)

# data[].attributes.body
5-7 but it depends on what kind of event it is, when doing your first event, you will def feel exhausted, but after many events it will feel more natural and less exhausting (mag)

6, cuz sometimes need to walk around and shoot but more events equals more opportunities to shoot. (brandy)

7, moderately tiring but is pretty fun too (cyrus)

5-9. it depends on what kind of event ure taking. for example, jan ori was super tiring and i took photos for all 5 days and i got like 4h of sleep the night before d-1 so thats confirm a 8-9. but if u take photos for homecoming, its pretty fun if the ppl ard u are fun like those who went for homecoming, we went to the photo booth to take photos, thats probably a 5. lastly, the 6-7 road race. road race was held at ocbc arena so i had to go all the way to stadium 🥲 before 8am. it was damn sunny so thats another factor to count, whether its indoors or outdoors, but thank god i brought my fan along. my uncle was there so it was q fun trying to find him in the crowd HAHAHAHA (annette)

7, but it can differ for each person, depending on how much workload you are willing to take during the cca (navvya)

We won't, anything related to photo editing or videography, you can self learn it on online, YouTube has many videos covering this topic as well. Of course, there are some members in our club including myself that has self learnt these topics, so anything queries, you can look for us if you need advice :) In our club, we mainly help you elevate your photos by teaching yall techniques and photography knowledge so that you can apply what you have learnt and turn it into experience from doing school events. (cyrus)

A6400, ZV-E10 with lenses with a variety of focal lengths (Example Tamron 18-200mm, 16-55mm, 55-210mm). Don’t need a full frame, start light and using lenses with a variety of focal lengths would be good, so that you can find out what focal length you like the most before you invest more money into more expensive lenses. (mag)

i highly agree with maguire :) (faiz)

i agree with mag and faiz .-. (brandy)

# data[].attributes.body
Realistically yes, we cover alot of events so there will be opportunities for everyone in the club, that being said since theres alot of events there will be events that will lapse over your lesson times, so you will have to choose between whether you would like attend CCA Events. (mag)

honestly right, many of the events dont rly clash w my major exams. js the practical assignments. but doing a lot of events can take a toll on ur studies like ull fall behind if u dont ask anybody for help and becos of that, u might not be able to catch up on work which cld lead to poor results if u dont do anything abt it. (annette)

The events usually happen at random or fixed times in the whole year. It rarely ever happens during the exam period. In the rare case that it does happen we would want the people who are able to cope with their exam revisions to go for it or for those who are finishing their exam week. Otherwise, the norm is to skip a few classes for events (navvya)

Assuming you meant renting the Club’s gear, No you cant but you can rent from shops like Renticulous that allows you to rent Camera Bodies & Lenses (mag)

u can rent camera bodies from vendor but lenses can rent from sony store at 313@Somerset if you owned a sony body. (sean)

# data[].attributes.body
No it is not hard, show commitment & your love for photography, and you will definitely make exco in no time (mag)

not rly. for me, jing xuan and navvya, we js went for a video challenge then got in (we got merit prize btw 😎) “I see potential in the 3 of u. U may not be very pro or have v gd skills. Some qualities are good enough to manage the cca. Example. Being responsible, being a good team player, being a good role model, friendly, able to do some administrative work to help me with the cca, able to guide and support the new members.” from ms masni (annette)

I was literally in the cca for less than 2 months and Ms Masni had an eye on me, Annette and Jing Xuan for exco positions. We weren't even in the role for long b4 we all became P/VP. Trust when i say it’s not that hard and that you just need to put in that effort. (navvya)

choose 1 cca if the time clashes. if u choose the other cca, bye bye :) (annette)

Try and prioritise which cca is important for you, you need to make sure you're there for both. If you can’t then it’s up to you to decide which cca you want (navvya)

Personally, I will see which one I prioritise more and you can see which cca interest or benefit you the most. (jingxuan)

its during events which is normally during school hours cos if we wanna actually take event photography during cca hours, it'll be too many of us and there isnt much events during our cca sessions. there is i think like 1 event coming soon, meet the principal, we might have a quick session but idk now la cos got q a lot of us (annette)

Majority of our events are during school hours so lessons are still going on, if you are interested to help, the club will provide leave form to excuse you from classes (cyrus)
