Macro Bodgification
I wanted to take some high magnification macro photos, but unfortunately I don't currently have a macro lens to hand (thinking about a Pentax/Samsung 100mm - but would probably have to sell my Sigma 50-150mm to fund any LBA impulses I have). Anywho, I rummaged through my box of camera cast offs a...

Macro Bodgification
They are very good. I like the 1st and 4th best. I'd just get some proper step down rings or reverse adapter and connect up what you've got or get a bellows which gives you a lot of control over the lens and camera. A macro lens on it's own isn't enough you also need a rack and pinion focus rail (no...

More from Northumbria
Last one for me too. The first one seems to be two good pictures in one, but with having the two points of focus I'm not sure what to look at first, the castle or the wave breaking. ( Am I making sense with this?) But that is just my opinion.

Thanks for the input folks. The first shot was pretty early on in the day and the sun had not quite burned the haze off, this was the same day we drove around the other side and I took the B&W view, the sky was still as bland, hence the new sky:D I did take quite a few here trying to get a nice ...

My first goldfinches with the DA*300 plus pentax 1.7TC
Hey Scott, nailed this one after seeing yours in the gallery. But your goldfinch is way superior :(. Got to get them sharper. Light is not at the best of angles as in the mornings sun rises straight from the front. Hope they come back in the afternoon again so that I will be waiting for them in th...

Prime Lens Azalia
F1.4....1/500, camera set to P, Cēterīs paribus. Flowering buds at front and rear just out of focus but the centre area just about ok? Need to be very careful when focusing on lowest f setting when there is depth of field of subject?????:?

A bit of sunlight from behind right.....f1.4 therefore requiring 1/3000th ISO 100. No flash, hood on, tripod. Cēterīs paribus. Focus difficult with little depth of field. :?

Here are some shots compares to the FA43 if you are interested He sayd the resolution is better of the DA*55 but it looks like the FA43 produce more vibrant colours. He didn't use manual mode it seems since the shots whit the FA43 have a longer exposure so I don't know how much that will effect t...

Not a garden bird.
Thank you for all your comments and advice. It must be my eyes and possibly this monitor as I didn't think that they were out of focus, soft perhaps. However I asked for your C & C I accept it. I must go again to do better (sounds like my school report:!::!:) They were probably a long way away as...

If I could ever give anyone a piece of advice, never show your out of focus shots it hurts the eyes, :shock:

A couple of falls
#1: The right side is not pulling it's weight, I feel. The part I find most interesting is at the bottom a bit to the right, the white blurred bit of water. I think that you wanted to get the bigger fall in the background in the picture. But with the wide angle lens you could have gone closer on the...

4 Photos Taken Today C+C Required
Not quite on the button are they Tel!.......could be the lens of course!........there seems to be nothing in focus,to my eye anyway,so it's not a back or front focus proplem. The shutter speeds are high so camera shake could be ruled out I suppose,what's your K20 like with other lenses?................

4 Photos Taken Today C+C Required
Hoping it was not the camera I have done a test with the 50mm.f1.4, its a bit crude had to use top flash but I think members will agree this lens seems OK . The AP Mag shot the focus was on the NX letters the others I have marked. [/img]
