Pentax D FA Macro 100mm F2.8 WR - Any interest?
I did use the "image" below the comment box and tried to add the url of the picture on my profile - but I think the url I used was of a web page on this site and not the actual jpeg address which I ...
A match made in heaven (well Japan and the Philippines)
You've finally dived into the A*135 club - I'm surprised at the few poor experiences (reviews) of this lens. I've been through a bunch of examples and other than purple fringing they've always been ...

Walkabout.

Wobbly hot shoe
There are two parts to the hotshoe - there may be a decent video tutorial on how to disassemble one. There's essentially a small 'shaped' bit of metal that covers the screws. To remove it you ne ...
A heavy beast
You could use that to shoot the upcoming eclipse. But don't look through it when pointing at the sun, it might melt your eyeball :cool::shock::cool::shock: Steve
Unexpected Intruders
The second one is excellent.
Damhouse Summer Garden Party
Nowhere more interesting than the usual evening dog walk. But that is getting more interesting because a roe deer is making a regular appearance just after sunset. So far, I've not managed a decent ...
Cropping
It seems we all mostly try to get it right at the time of shooting - but with with the larger MP sensors in particular we really do get a second chance to create a good image if the first doesn't l ...

More BW and Colour mix

First try out with DA*300 + HD DA 1.4x Converter (Motorbikes)
Lovely images - really like the movement. Good discussion above.

Colour or BW.
That third image has such a lovely balance to it. The texture in the sky is a winner.[/quote] Thank you.
More Bikes with DA300 + 1.4x converter (Side on, panning)
Having had a Kawasaki VN 900cc cruiser in the past and loved it, I do so like all, stress all, of these images. I don't have a favourite, they are that good. And yes, I loved posing on my chrome ...
Steve's Crazy Macro Rig
The rig in that link looks like something from the mad professor's lab!
More From The Garden (Tokina 90mm macro + 1.4TC)
Thanks for the additional comments. Appreciated :smile:. sempervivum (?) Correct :grin:. I always have mixed feelings about those flowers. Beautiful and photogenic, particularly for close-up ...
Some shots with the Sigma APO EX 800mm f/5.6
I tracked this lens on Ebay as well, but after an exchange with the seller decided not to take the risk. Looks like you may well have a real bargain on your hands. My previous experience with the ...
