This one is an absolute ripper. Great shot - I would be stoked to get one like that. Crisp and clean as whistle. Great work.

I imagine he slowed the shutter speed down and closed the aperture to blur it. He may have also reduced the iso as well to compensate for the shutter being open longer. I played around with this idea a few weeks back at a waterfall. Never quiet got it right - was a really bright day and I only had a few minutes before the bus came. Should have been using a much higher F number. 1/8 sec at F11 and F14 respectively. You live and learn.

Looks like a zoom in or zoom out shot with the pool balls.

The d7100 is a great price of kit. It's the newer version of the d7000 which it's the updated version of the d90.
A lot of people use the as a secondary camera to there main camera for weddings and the like. But it's also a great camera to have easy to use.

Not a bad effort ted the kiwi, smooth water falls are hard to shoot in the middle of the day you need an ND filter if you want to slow the shutter down other wise to much light gets in and you'll blow your high lights.
Morning or afternoon is your best bet if you want have a crack at slow shutters and don't want to spend $ on filters.

An interesting concept the 'zooming'!

Water fall shots are hard as to get clear, here is one that I took in Samoa!

I want to grab one mainly because of the video as well, looks pretty good and smooth. The nikon AW1 also looks like ti would be a wicked camera! It is a toss up between the D7100 and the AW1 haha

It comes down to choice really. But I know holding dslr is a lot more comfortable than holding the smaller cameras.

To eliminate camera shake when you press the shutter button, I do this as compensation for no remote shutter release. Works great!

i am confused Tom we are talking about different things
i was talking about shooting while zooming, you will make more camera shake while zooming than pressing the shutter.
ive never liked the timer trick and cable release and i think they are only useful in macro and bellows app.
cheers

Haha no wonder you were confused then haha

Meh, I only use it on long exposure shots, waterfall or not. Only because I don't have a remote shutter release haha

Too pov to buy one!
