Well Smeggy, they're great shots and the end justifies the means. It's just my personal philosophy, but I feel that if i'm going to take pictures of people, i ought to be prepared to be amongst them. That Vivien whatshername presumably got her shots by working hard at blending in and perhaps interacting a little bit with her subjects, which appeals to my humanist nature more...lol

From a little further up the canal... similar glorious urban scenery...

Interesting to have the lens compared to Nikon's budget 35 -

Compared with the DA 35mm, the Nikkor 35mm f/1.8 DX AFS has slightly better central sharpness, slightly worse corners, much worse distortion, is about 2/3 of an f/stop brighter (based on histograms), and is better built.

Kind of confounds the critics of this lens when it was first released...

Well it's a special for the Japanese market... I think it's funny, those people at Gizmodo need to lighten up.

I just discovered I can now get THIS on ebay.... have to say... I'm tempted! Lol

These are excellent Smeggy. Personally I'd ditch some of the very high ISO cropped shots. I adore this one:

The technique works well. Isn't it a bit of a cowardly approach though?

Thanks chaps, think I might go back this afternoon ;P

Is that PP article available online, Gareth?

Does the ISO you start at make a difference? I get the impression the camera just boosts 'ISO' to get the correct exposure, and the only control you have is your aperture.

Boo, hiss etc!

Very nice results from the K100, and interesting to see the others - the brand is kind of irrelevent, but glad to hear the Pentax offers better AEB options! Stick with Pentax as the K7 and K5 offer up to 5 AEB shots up to 2EV apart.... that should be enough for any HDR fan!

Very nice results. The shot of the two girls is great.
