Test shots on Zoom 90 compact
Here are some test shots on my free Zoom 90 compact -- I used up some outdated Kodak Ultra 400 film and processed it for longer in C41 as it was well-used and the film was old, I found the flash balanced well with dull daylight outdoors. The 'MACRO' setting was disappointing as I found several were ...

Single shot whith HDR
I actually prefer the original as I find the 'fake HDR' contrasts a bit harsh and unrealistic, particularly the differences between the silver birch bark, sky and snow. Here's a very quick attempt with more conventional means. It has just 0.25 stop more exposure and some texture pulled back into...

K-5 mkii focus in the dark..
Back to working in the night club tonight, the club is very dark and only lit by coloured spots and lazers. So a real good test for the new mkii. My old mki was hopeless at focussing in the club and I had to resort to setting focus to manual, set lens focus to 3 feet and shoot at f/8. Tonight was...

High Cup Nick
Back using the Pentax again for my wee wanders - mostly with the 16-50 Just a quick dog walk up to High Cup Nick with the boy and his grandad and back to Dufton for a pint or two. A good spot and I think it will merit coming back and spending a bit of time trying out different angles. Couple of i...

Duchess of Cambridge visits Grimsby
Number two is a crop and she was also turning her head rather quickly so its actually slight motion rarther than focus, it was shot at 5.6 hence the coat and hair being sharper. One was manual focus :-)

A rare day of light!
The detail in the Blue Tit is fantastic. Were you on a walk about or are they taken from a hide? Well, I was sat in the car Barry! I put a camouflage net over the car, sat back and watched the action unfold! The car was that well covered, I even had a Nuthatch fly in the open door then out the other...

A rare day of light!
Well, I was sat in the car Barry! I put a camouflage net over the car, sat back and watched the action unfold! The car was that well covered, I even had a Nuthatch fly in the open door then out the other side, where the window was open!! I admit it was lazy, but I had been up for about 20hrs by the...

Deer Carcass - Newbie Help
Hey everyone, these are some shots of a deer carcass that lay sprawled out in the ridiculously dense and dark pine woods at the back of our home in the Trossachs. I took these today, day three of owning the K-30 which was purchased from srsmicrosystems (fantastic customer service) and day two of own...

What do you do when the sun don't shine?
Try out my new macro 100mm, Cactus triggers and Gary Fong diffuser in the back garden: It was snowing, blowing and bl**dy freezing so I naturally went down the beach to see just how rough it was: Taken with DA*16-50, polariser and 0.6 ND Grad After getting wet feet,...

What do you do when the sun don't shine?
tobinobin, you're quite at liberty to prefer anyone you like.:D Unfortunately I was limited for colourful subject matter on that day to what I found in my back garden. So the daffodil just had to be included. Stuey. Glad you like them

Mallory Park Today - 10 images
Nice work, Simon - and I'm glad you enjoyed it... despite the relatively poor light and racing being curtailed prematurely when ice began to form on the back straight. Have barely started to edit mine, thanks to crap M1 traffic and a slowish journey home.

First Five Days
Its great start, like the angle of views you chosen, and there are definate signs your going to enjoy the create possibilities both in use and post processing. CC wise, shooting under harsh light can be a challenge, and a shooting directly into the sun something to be very wary of. Burned out pa...

Trying out my K10
When I bought a K7 I thought of selling my K10, but didn't, thankfully. I still use it regularly and the quality of the images, particulalry colour, is generally better than my K7. Regards Curiously enough I was enquiring about the K7 this Saturday over in Watford (SRS)and the consensus of web (...

Sheffield
Ahh, I see! It's interesting that you comment on the 18-135 'filterless'. I've found that some lenses hate filters (especially circular polarisers), whereas others love them! The 55-300 will not hit sharp focus with a circular polariser attached - even when focussing manually it is always soft. ...
