She is dodging in-camera. The latest technique to control contrast--better than HDR. But regardless of the quality of the pictures, she is looking good!I'm curious to see what pictures did she take with her finger in front of the lens.
It's funny that I was thinking the same thing. Even the skin color (or whatever fond de teint they used on her) doesn't look right.Olivia looks awful in that ad, that's what bothers me. She's gorgeous and her hair and makeup are all wrong for her.
I know, it's downright creepy.It's funny that I was thinking the same thing. Even the skin color (or whatever fond de teint they used on her) doesn't look right.
I am not sure Leica paid a cosmetic company to be visible. The commercial makers used to have Yashica TLR and such as props before. I guess a TLR can't be show with the lipstick to be prominent. So a camera. With the kind of snapping she is doing, a Sony RX-1 without the dumb finder would have been perfect.Now I understand better why the other dude didn't want to buy the monokrum because of an invisible mark on the release button.
And look at that lady taking care of her face so much that she doesn't even let the camera touch her.
You know, guys, If I was saying to y'all that leica has become a poseur camera catering the rich and the fashion victims, I'd be witch-hunted by you all. I'd be the troll par excellence. You'd all be insulted.
But when leica deliberately places itself in a revlon ad, depicting exactly what I'm talking about, it's ok?
I understand the marketing game very well. But guys, this is almost insulting the real photographer in me.
Get a clue. Trust me, no one pays for product placement and allows the branding to be crudely blacked out.If they haven't paid then they should sue.
But yes, they paid. They are after that market. The Victoria Beckhams of the world. The woman photographer's blog featuring her M9 purchase is a part of this movement.
