I've had a look, and "liked" your page. I've got a page too, which has lead to a couple of print sales, though I haven't been as active there as I should. Have a look at my page if you like, link in my signature.

It should be easy enough to work out when to switch the AA on- just look at the picture you've just taken (which you can also do on your phone or tablet, assuming you buy a FLU card) and see if it has moire or not.

It's the high ISO performance that most interests me. If it's an improvement over the K5, I'll definitely be buying one. It looks like it's going to be the best APS-C camera on the market.

I was hoping for FF, but this might do....looks pretty impressive.

For those worried about it using a different grip (personally I don't like them and would never buy one), the only difference as far as I can see is that the new grip is WR.

They should be in C: Program files (not x86 if you have a 64 bit machine)> Adobe> Adobe Photoshop Lightroom> Resources> Camera Profiles> Camera. At least that's where they are on my Windows 8 computer.

What profiles are you trying to use?

They only make 100 a year, and it's not available to the general public link

A link to the Ricoh blurb here, link , showing what is perhaps the worst ever example of a really bad photo being used to show the capabilities of a camera.

It would no doubt be a lot cheaper and easier to buy a stock 645D and get it converted yourself. It would still eye-wateringly expensive for, as Will says, such a niche camera. I've no doubt it would take some stunning shots, but perhaps an IR K5 would be more practical? As someone who does a lot of IR, I'd love to see some shots from the IR 645D though.

Thanks, Will! Very appropriate pun!

The reason they wanted the development photographed now is that they are handing it over to the customer next month, so wanted to photograph it while they still have full access to the site.

They have asked me to shoot the exteriors of all the buildings again once the landscaping is completed, once they get permission from the leasing company who have bought it. They say 3 months, but as they are a year behind anyway I expect it to be six months or so. If the leasing company that now owns the mall (it's changed hands since the original customer went bankrupt) says no to allowing them to photograph it again, I'll approach the leasing company instead.

Thanks again to those who commented on the images!

For those who preferred to turn this thread into yet another pointless discussion, haven't you all got anything better to do with your lives? Like take pictures?

Thanks for the apology, David, though not really necessary.
