Continuing with part 2 of the Suzumiya Haruhi Cosplay Shoot I was tasked to do which I really enjoyed. Here’s for those who missed out Part 1.

This part of the series will include a couple of parodies from Phoenix Wright ^^

The Melancholy of Suzumiya Haruhi
(Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney Parody)｜
涼宮ハルヒの憂鬱 （逆転裁判 蘇る逆転のパロディ）

Haruhi: Objection!
ハルヒ：異議あり！

Koizumi: Ara Ara~!
古泉: あら あら～！

Koizumi: Tsk Tsk Tsk. You’re so wrong Defense Attorney!
古泉：全然間違ったよ！

Koizumi: But I’ll let you continue.
古泉：続けってください。

For those who have played the Phoenix Wright series would recognize Edgeworth’s trademark pose.

Haruhi: The evidence clearly states…
ハルヒ： この罪跡は…

I couldn’t find an image with the words 「異議あり！」 that was large enough, so I had to stick with “Objection!” ^^;

We managed to get a photo with Haruhi and Kyon as well! Lucky!

There’s still a Part 3 of this cosplay shoot, which Nagato Yuki will make a appearance! Watch this blog till then!

Post Processing

For those wondering how I did the interlace effect for Haruhi’s and Koizumi’s picture. I created a 1 by 4 pattern in photoshop, filled the top 2 pixels with black and saved it as a pattern.

Fired up the image I want to apply the pattern into, create a new layer, fill the pattern in, do some adjustments and viola! Done!

Or you could read the tutorial which I used ^^;

Extras

A comparison between the cosplay shoot and the anime version. Surprisingly accurate and scary at the same time ^^; Found the anime images while searching google for the 「異議あり！」 picture.

OS X Crash

Okay, my OS X has finally crashed, rendering the whole PC useless and it was all due to using the "Software Update" app available in OS X’s Finder. Now it restarts whenever I boot into Darwin. Am in the midst of installing OS X again back into the system but the first few tries were unsuccessful.

Will try to release Part 2 of the Suzumiya Haruhi Cosplay Shoot by today but no promises as I work on my laptop which loves to do the monitor flickering on me. Have sent it for servicing but it seems like the problem’s back :(

EF 75-300mm f/4-5.6 III


  ^ Lack of good images and lackluster Photoshop skills

The image says it all. Yes, the acquisition of a new lens.

Introducing the EF 75-300mm f/4-5.6 III lens.

Before you start bashing on why the acquisition of such a cheap lens, do note that it is to get me started on telephoto shooting on a very tight budget.

As the box says, EF 75 – 300mm f/4-5.6 III. 1.5m/4.9ft required for marco-ing.

I haven’t really got the time to test out the new lens yet, but it would be useful during my trip to Melbourne as I can do more testing over there.

I have the non-USM version, therefore the autofocus is noticeably slow and/or innaccurate at times, but you get what you pay for.

On the side note, this lens is really light and cheap compared to the “L” (Luxury) lens. Of course performance and quality wise, the L lens beats this hands down.

Chromatic aberration is quite appalling if you do zoom in at the finer details.


 ^ Taken at 75mm

 
  ^ Taken at 300mm

This lens would be useful when I can’t get closer to the subject at hand. I can’t really comment on this lens right now :/

I do wish to get the EF 50mm f/1.8 II and the Speedlite 430EX as soon as possible. Someone please get those for my birthday :p
