The Olympus E-system thread

Isn't that advert a bit old? Spiderman 2

BTW, great photos, I love the one with the robot head robot.

Not to my knowledge, he's a local artist who designs custom calenders and such for a large graphics house here. If memory serves me well his name is Ron something. I'll check into it for you though just in case Barry's doing some moonlighting:)
 
The company that had me shoot this one told me that all of the photographers who shot there before always got way dark results with no detail. When I gave them this shot they were astounded. This is a large tunnel borer being fabricated. This company built the borers that dug the Chunnel so they tell me. Edit: although I was told I could use any image I shot with this company anywhere I liked, I just received an e-mail that states I have to inform them of when and where which I have now to do. I have posted an older image in its place for now.

Mino-

I just watched your short. It did what I think you set out to do...very calming, very relaxing and beautiful. Was that DVX footage? And where did you aquire the piano might I ask?
 
Thanks Rick...Yes it was DVX footage, good old DVX100. The piano was provided by the talented Justin R Durban.
 
I have pulled all the shots I had posted as "paid shots" Although I had verbal permission to use them, instinct is telling me to get it in writing as they are corporate shots and "verbal" probably won't cut it in the legal sense. I'll put them back up if and when I get it in writing. One thing that spooked me just now was I phoned the company I had posted a shot from to ask for a written release and was told the person who gave her "Verbal" ok no longer worked at the company!!
 
I know in the US, if you haven't signed over rights to your photos...you own them. Even if people pay you to take them, or if you've given them limited use.
 
Thanks for your input Dan. A couple of calls here seem to suggest the same rule. I am left with the fact that I fully intend to work with some of these individuals in the future and will respect their wishes as to what images I use to demonstrate my shooting level to Joe public. One company builds cutting edge technologies in a highly competitive market, it probably isn't in their best interests to have shots of their product in pre-release state floating around willy-nilly on the web. I'll wait until I have their permission to put the stuff up. Call it a better judgment call on my part if for no other reason than to promote a healthy working relationship:)

This is true you own them but the way in which you publish or display them has boundaries unless you have a clause in a contract that protects you.

The man is right. And to clarify further, posting on an internet forum for no gain of your own will not cause an issue with the subject. I'm at work now, but I have an awesome site at home that I'll try to post later. It will take you days to read all of it (well, at least if you read as slow as I do).

Mino, you have a great theme to your photos. You should have a book of your photos published.

Yeah, Mino...I agree with him. There is something about your eye in your photos...its like "duh"...Like "why didn't I think of that photo?"...

Like I said before, your photos have that 'didn't try to hard' look. I mean they are a clinic to crisp, clean, sharp, colorful photos. Period. But, you probably knew I was gonna say that....:smile:
 
You guys are great...Thanks for the encouragement man, it's deeply appreciated. I've got two more days off and it's supposed to be sunny, I think me and the Olympus are going to play. It's been dismal and rainy whenever I have time to shoot ergo shots from the past:)
