Leicakillen Posted November 20, 2011 Share #1 Posted November 20, 2011 Advertisement (gone after registration) .. we have had the Fotomässan (yearly Photo Fair) this weekend. I must say pretty uninteresting, nothing really new. I tested a Noctilux on my M9 - and - more importantly saw the portraits of Manuel Pandalis in full size, all taken with an S2. I was totally taken away by these shoots(I of course understand that it is more than the camera and no I don´t think that technical quality is everything) !!! These images were absolutely standing apart compared to everything else on the fair. I can´t think of any better promotion for this camera than these images. Does anyone of you know anything more about these images, how they were taken, post processing etc? Thanks, /Anders Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

matlep Posted November 20, 2011 Share #2 Posted November 20, 2011 If you din´t get a copy of the S-Magazine you can order a copy online. There is a story on those pictures in it. As I understood it, there was only natural light, but quite a bit of converting/Post processing going on. I agree on the pictures, I myself thought they were the only ones together with Wennmans pictures, worth looking at. Have a look at: S-League Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wattsy Posted November 21, 2011 Share #3 Posted November 21, 2011 I was given a copy of S magazine and agree that the Pandalis portraits are impressive. The rest the magazine is tedious - the content is very 'German' and the magazine contains some of the most boring photographic work I have ever seen collected in one place. It's very similar in content to Hasselblad's Victor magazine which, strangely enough, is also usually very boring. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

wattsy Posted November 24, 2011 Share #5 Posted November 24, 2011 What is the meaning of - very German - Good question. I meant it in the context of photography - especially fashion photography. I am of course making a gross generalisation but there does seem to be a school of fashion photography much favoured by German glossy magazines that appears unable to leave the Autobahn techno era behind. Dreary studio-bound staging, angular, ugly models well past their sell by date, etc. Perfectly exemplified by the Joachim Baldauf and Alexander Straulino pieces in this particular magazine.
