That looks like home for some monster spider etc.

I like the subtle effect these images present.

Nice shots - what is the second bike:

I it seems to be Italian but I thought that Ducati's have the 'v' front to back not to the sides and that Aprillia's are not normally that big but that is me showing my ignorance - possibly
Isn't it a Moto Guzzi?
Correct Kris & Jeff. Its a V11 Sport. The number plate tells all. link

The Hayabusa is also plated appropriately.

All comments appreciated.

This is academic. Surely what counts is how a camera behaves in use. This is a shot I took with a Q:

I couldn't have got such DoF (the rain on the window and the subject in focus) on an FF or APS-C camera without stopping down to a point that would have made it impractical. I know FF cameras can be used with cropped sensors and APS-C lenses, but they cannot -as far as I am aware - replicate the extended DoF of compact sensors.

Generally speaking larger sensors will give better results. And I also mostly prefer the reduced DoF obtainable on larger sensors. But on occasion - the street at night for example - the heightened DoF of a compact sensor can make it the preferred tool.
A good photo by the way.

Best regards

No axes to grind Mhuni, so I'm unsure what you refer to.

You say but you meant? Now you are talking equivalent focal lengths? So due to a cropped sensor you have to reduce focal length to regain similar angle of view. So comparing two different focal length lenses for DOF is a non event. Apples and pears.

However, since you can get a 15-45mm lens for the Q lets fit the 14-24mm on the D700 and set 15mm.

The Q gets 8.4 ft to 12.4ft focused for 10ft

the D700 gets 4.6ft to infinity and a bit more FOV to boot.

This is not a FF against APS-C or Q issue rather than see the forest past the trees.

Best regards
