Though I liked them all, I think the Magicians is my favorite. Works very well with sepia.

Thank you John. Most intriguing though way beyond my capabilities and slow, cluttered mind. I appreciate your subtle use/blending of colours, shapes and images.

Stephen

John, a very interesting picture! I'd love to know how you did it? Was it all PP, or (more interestingly) was IR involved?

Cheers,

Stephen

Andrew, another wonderful set! You never fail to enrich. I especially like number three (3). Reminds me of my youth, ploughing around in the old Landrover investigating disused, forgotten and now unloved locales. Thank you for continuing to record these images.
Such as youth, these will also pass.

Stephen

I haven't played with an I-10 and so won't make any suggestions, except:
ask questions here on the forum
post some pictures and learn from comments
view the Gallery and be inspired
enjoy the camera and don't be afraid to experiment

Best of luck and cheers,

Stephen

Hi and welcome to the forum. Going to view some of your web postings now.

Hi Graham and welcome to the forum. Much like you I have been finding it hard coming to grips with digital, but as suggested by Ken I began using manual and experimented with the various auto settings. Trial and error plus multiple readings of the manual has helped greatly. This is a wonderful forum in which to ask questions - very friendly and helpful members!!! With your experience I'm sure that looking through the Gallery and reading how others have produced the shots while also asking questions will speed you along the learning path.

Best of luck, good to have you aboard,

Stephen

Hello Geoff and welcome to the forum. I will be watching for a "picture or two".

I agree with Stefan, the Tamron 28-75 (set at 75mm) would be the better for portraits and the constant F2.8 is a nice touch. When converted 75mm would come close to 109mm which in MHO would be the prime for 135 film use. I have a Tamron 28-75 and use it constantly, it is probably my most used lens. I highly recommend it. Over here they tend to be a bit pricey when new, but you should be able to find a good used one at reasonable cost.

Good luck,

Stephen
