What’s up y’all,

Figured it’s been a while since I’ve seen an updated Zoa showoff thread and was about time to start a fresh one so that we can get an updated list of all the hottest zoas current in the hobby. I’ll start it off with some of my favorites! (All photos are my own and taken of zoas in my growout)

Wow, I don’t know what you are using to take those pictures but wow!
These are screen shots pulled from my hyperlapse videos, but to answer your question I use my Sony a7siii with a Tamron 90mm macro lens
Nothing special but good growth.

Nice, love me a good Zoa garden!

Appreciate the kind words! Utter chaos are awesome zoas, I have a little patch of those as well. I’ll definitely consider doing a photo/video tutorial if people want that!
Some are showing off their pink zoas in this thread. :beaming-face-with-smiling-eyes:
I’ll check it out!
how do i setup my dslr to take pics without them looking like trash ?
The biggest factor is learning the lighting triangle/white balance and shooting in manual. From there it all comes down to editing to get that true-to-eye look. Photography/videography is my profession, so I have a bit of an unfair advantage when it comes to this style of content haha
Those are some incredible zoas!
Thank you!
