  1. err…i don’t think the macbook air can be classified as being cheap…it may have a cheap camera,an awful one at that,but the thing is, you need to buy the rest of the computer with it as well…and that ain’t cheap :D

  2. The pics were fucking shitty lol I wouldn’t even call that art ::D:D:D

  3. I find it hilarious that Kai goes around with $4,000 camera’s without any fear of damage that might be caused in the process of doing different things such as taking pictures off of rocks at an ocean beach with water splashing all around, yet when they give this lady the MacBook Air and she spills some liquid on it they all jump to make sure it is alright.

  4. The best camera is the camera you like ;) This vid shows the only chance to get somewhat interesting pictures from a shitty cam is to get a large artificial light. In natural light shitty cams don’t stand a chance. I’m talking about sub-compact range. Phones/webcams etc.

  5. I guess you should check out the challenges #2 and especially #3. Both were portraits without great lighting kit. One was using a simple reflector, the other flashlights.

  6. maybe where you live here it costs almost the same as a mark 3 camera without the taxes, i mean anyone can photography well if they have a greatlighting kit like she has do u really think that she with a top pf line camera would have cheaplights? dont think so I would like to see a challenge where they arein a studio with no lights ans no cash, them yeah i mean there´s no point in on taking photos with a lego camera if you using a sb 900 flash to help out … u know what I mean?

  7. Not sure where you’re buying your Dedo’s but those lights aren’t (that) expensive. Anyone could get 70% of the way there with two table lamps and some cardboard.

  8. Pro Photographers wouldn’t be shooting Crop, Full Frame =D
    They have lenses worth more than a 550d… let alone flash equipment…

  9. I really like the photographer’s creativity, but why did she add those crappy filters?
