Hi Cakmur,
Thanks for your kind words. I'm delighted that you enjoyed the article and
the pictures. You're pictures are wonderful as well! I particularly liked
the pictures of the pocket watch and of the El Primero movement.I primarily shoot with a Nikon Coolpix 950 (digital, I only shoot digital).
I use lots of lighting filtered through a homemade light-box made of vellum.
For most of the pictures, I used two 150 watt incandescent bulbs but for a
few of the pictures of the cased watch I used two extremely powerful halogen
lamps that my girlfriend has (she is a real photographer). I took some of
those pictures with her Nikon Coolpix 5000 as well (an amazing camera but
I'm simply not as comfortable with it as I am with the 950). For some of
the close-up shots of the movement I used two magnifying lenses (Tiffen, +10
and +7 combined) and for the really close-up shots I shot through a 35x
microscope. For my next review I'm hoping to use a stereo zoom microscope
so I'll have more variability as to magnification and field of view.I try to do as little as possible in Photoshop but typically make some
adjustment of the levels and/or brightness and contrast and almost always
use a little Unsharp Mask as well.I hope this helps, thanks again for your note.
