Watches and photography go hand in hand (see what I did there?)

First, fantastic pic! Little peek-a-boo action going on.

I came to watch photography as a means learning how to better use my camera but soon found I was genuinely interested in the art and design behind it all (plus obviously watches make for great models, 😂). I too created a dedicated IG primarily just to spare friends and family from my growing addiction. In fact I took it one step further, after being inspired by folks like Peter McKinnon, I wanted to test the limited of camera by creating dynamic videos and started a YT channel… but soon realized that while I had fun creating videos, the sheer amount of time to film/edit them was getting overwhelming. And in general, enjoyed being in Lightroom more than Premiere.

I shoot with an A7SIII using 35mm prime, and occasionally a crappier APS-C kit lens when I need to change up to a different focal length. I’ve been making do with extension tubes when I need more macro shots but hoping to snag the 90mm prime sometime soon. I need less expensive hobbies. 😂 

Both expensive hobbies indeed!  And wow!  That’s a bad a$$ camera!  
 

Just gave you a follow on IG. I’ve seen your YT channel before - watched your SARB033 vid maybe a month ago?  Well done … would love to see more!

Cheers my friend!

Followed you back on IG - great photos and you got a fantastic collection… staring daggers at that Aqua Terra! 🍻 

Cheers! Your IG page is awesome! Excellent photos of your great collection.💯

Thank you!!  Very kind of you to say!  You have an amazing IG as well!! Cheers! 🍻 

Thank you!  It’s my newest and I’m still in that honeymoon phase. Cheers my friend!  🍻 

In my case, I actually got into simple phone photography earlier than my watch addiction. And then the 2 just sort of meshed together. So now there's an IG account exclusively for my watch hobby 😂 Of course, photo sample should be included. 

I usually don't drink Gin, but do you recommend The Botanist?

I am a garbage photographer, but I’d really like to get better at it! 

Great capture. I did get into photography to support my watch hobby (and YouTube channel).

I really find macro photography interesting and have a 28mm Canon macro lens to go with my Canon M50. Watch dial and movements are really captivating up close! 

I might be transitioning over to the Sony ecosystem, with a Sony 6400. If anyone has any good lens recommendations for Sony E-mount, please let me know.

Cheers.

Very nice!!

I would indeed!  One could get lost in scotch or bourbon…but gin is becoming very interesting to me. A bartender made me a martini with this gin, and I had to have it. I guess it is time to delve into the world of gin . Would definitely recommend this one!

Well, that's about all the convincing I need. Going to have to try it out now!

Thank you!  Did you just post a low-light pic of the Grand Seiko?  Amazing!  

Would love to know how the Sony transition goes!

Cheers!

Yeah, I used my Canon M50 with a 22mm lens, wide open at F2.0 for the shot :)
