Sorry to say but, I much prefer no's 2 & 3 of the first set and the original RAW image over the processed (final) one. All areas appear darker and less defined to these eyes.

Best regards,

"a 3-inch 920,000-dot color LCD cathode-ray tube screen," An LCD and CRT together,must be some kind of new imagining device. What's next, a plasma cine projector? These advances are mind boggling but just a thought, what kind of battery must be carried around to power the CRT?

Must agree with all above. Wonderful shots. Could we see the originals for comparison? I also would like to know more about 'contrast making'.

Again, absolutely marvellous. Reminds me of west coast Nfld.

Oh, I think I'll be sick, laughing so hard. Just loved reading the site. Thank you Lloydy for posting the link. Suddenly this cold dismal day has started to lighten. Can't imagine what"fibre stuff the clergy" is though??

Yes, a little muted colour for the first (opening) shot and then mono for the rest. Another wonderful series Andrew. Sad how its more profitable to store things than operate a farm, same thing is happening here also. Unless we grow/produce our own or go out of the way, most food on local shelves is marked Product of USA. I understand land isn't being made anymore yet it seems more and more of it is being covered with rock and mortar. Thank you for doing such a superb job of recording what will pass.

Excellent shots!! Crystal clear, colourful and no blur. Very professional and could be used for commercial purposes. I am super impressed.

Wonderful shot. I feel the shutter speed is correct, it shows the power yet you know its water by the little pool in lower left. May be tempted to try taking out some purple though.

I have a remote, by Pentax and love it. Gives me the ability to move around without worry of wire. The only drawback - it must be pointed at the camera with no obstruction. I also have a Pentax cable switch, which is handy if I'm not dashing around.

There is a remote available that uses radio signals instead of the Pentax IR. This would be the best bet, but I'm sure it is pricey! I believe the name is Pocket Wizard. I shall see what I can find out.

Hello and welcome. Do post more photos, intrigued by the ones above.

Over the past 2 years I have had 3 Lowe bags: Nova 4, Nova 5AW and Magnum AW.
I have never used a rain coat (cover) on any of them - just too much trouble. Last summer I shot an outdoor concert and we had torrential rains. The Magnum's strap became sodden and the outside of the bag was soaked, but inside everything was bone dry. As I remember Lowe products are a bit pricey but they've treated me well. My Magnum is loaded with: K200D gripped with lens (usually DA18-55), K20D gripped with lens (usually DA50-200), Sigma DC10-20, spare DA18-15, AF-540 flash, flashlight (torch), lens pen, pad and pencils, spare batteries for everything, extra memory cards (usually 3-4), various filters, remote trigger, Sekonic flash meter, cigarette lighter, pass credentials, 2 quick release plates for tri/mono pods, highly reflective vest (for visible protection when on location shoots), measuring tape and markers. The bag is a might heavy, but you get used to it. Believe it or not I can still cram some more things in! I seldom attach either a tripod or monopod, it just becomes too clumsy. Everything is fitted comfortably and easy to reach and though the bag has had much use it still functions and looks fairly new. I would say it is worth whatever I paid for it. The Nova 5AW is an excellent bag also and will carry 2 cameras and lens, but becomes a little cramped when I try to carry much more. The Nova 4 I gave away as a gift. It is a wonderful bag also, but really best suited to 1 camera and some extra gear. Hope this is helpful and good luck on your choice.

Cheers,

Stephen
