Sydney Opera House

Thanks all. Interested to know how you took the image from film to digital. I paid the developer to scan the roll at low res. If I need a hi res version I have a Minolta Scan Dual II. Thats a different view. Are you heading to the far north at all? I'm afraid not and am, in fact, back in the...

It was a good trip but giving five papers in three continents in a month was a bit exhausting. At least I'm back hom...

Scottish Parliament Building Study

2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 9 for me - all excellent shots and processing :) I think I would have brightened up the two gents a bit in #9 with a local adjustment brush though. I alos lik the idea of the back end of a taxi in the shot in #1 but feel it could have worked a lot better with only the rear e...

Going Dutch

Thank you both for your kind remarks, it is much appreciated #1 is an image that "haunted" me from way back in the mid sixties when I saw it in a copy of Woodworker magazine. Then about 5 years ago I came across the magazine again and finally I got to see it for real - it's bigger than I imagined...

A few with a Fisheye

Thanks for the comments, #1 is shot at 17mm and the rest at 10mm. Smeggy - thanks for the comment, I'm using a laptop and the brightness changes depending how far I lean the screen back - the graduated bars at the bottom help a bit though. John.

A few with a Fisheye

Very nice shots :) - A little dark though. :) Agreed. Also agree that the first three are a little dark, but the last one, the bendy boat, has possibly gone the other way - at least the sky has got a bit burnt out. John K Thanks John. Yes I should have dropped the last one back a bit (I'd spotted...

First gig with k-5 mkii and DA* 16-50mm

Very nice set Gary, I passed on the 16-50 so I could get the 70Ltd but I think put it back on the shopping list :) I recently swapped my K5 for K5IIs, I'm glad I did as the AF is a real step forward. Incidently, I rekon my K30 is even better on tha AF front, especially for track moving objects...

First gig with k-5 mkii and DA* 16-50mm

TRUE, however last year I shot simple minds with the k-5 and Tamron 17-50 and had a horrendous time with it. Think I ended up with less than ten keepers that night compared to around 120 last night :-) So would you say it's the focus accuracy that's made the difference?

First gig with k-5 mkii and DA* 16-50mm

Both, the body has made a difference but the 16-50 doesnt hunt no where near as much and is faster to focus than the Tamron.

First gig with k-5 mkii and DA* 16-50mm

I dont use my mki at all now, except to take photos of the mkii :D A great set of images Gary, well up to your high standards. It's a pity that owners of the Mk 1 may now feel that they have junk kit. Similar undertones were posted when the Mk 1 arrived whereby owners of a new K5 wondered how K7 ...

First gig with k-5 mkii and DA* 16-50mm

I havent dismissed the mki at all, its still a very capable camera. However my subject matter is very demanding and not the norm for other photography subjects. My hit rate has inreased by a staggeringly high amount with the mkii and da* 16-50 compared to the mki and tamron 17-50. As i said earl...
