  • Replied in My top 30 from the Canon S100 (2011)
    Thanks all for the kind words everyone - glad you enjoyed the images. I've seen this camera generate a lot of controversy here on the forums (re lens issues) ... It's working great for me. FWIW, i...
  • Created thread My top 30 from the Canon S100 (2011)
    Just got back off a 2 week road trip through Utah (Canyonlands, Arches, Zion, etc). Awesome couple of weeks. I shot stills primarily with my MF gear (Pentax 67ii) with video on a Panasonic G3. I...
  • Created thread A day of video from the S100
    Edited into a 3+ min video. The video mode is definitely one of my favorite features of this camera. Not perfect on focusing - like in stills, it sometimes focus on the background unnecessarily but...
  • Created thread Low light HD S100 video (3min 11s)
    Learned how to use a 19th century photographic method of printing (wet plate collodion) the other week in SF. Video'd the process using my S100 and edited / cut in Adobe Premier. The S100 is just...
  • Created thread My first favorite 5 shots with S100
    Like many on here, thanks to this forum I benefited over the weekend to pickup the camera before the official release date and with the discount. I didn't have the S90 or S95 so using this...
  • Replied in First resolution tests on s100
    I thought v positive also. If this is the same class of sensor technology as say the Eplh 300 - a camera i have (of course the S100 has updated processing and larger sensor though) - then this is...

    saw this earlier today. http://www.techradar.com/news/photography-video-capture/cameras/canon-powershot-s100-review-techradar-labs-data-1033993
  • Replied in G3, a couple of months in (+ my best images)
    Thanks for pointing that out re comment / login. Hadn't noticed that - must have gotten set a while back. Corrected now - thanks! lawrence --- Lawrence Ripsher http://www.lawrenceripsher.com
  • Created thread G3, a couple of months in (+ my best images)
    Had the camera since June and ready to give it a big thumbs up. Just got the Oly 12mm f2 as well. Seems like is getting fairly universal praise from all corners (although most also seem hesitant to...
  • Replied in Just got a think tank retrospective 5
    Impressed so far. Compact yet holds a G3 (with lens) and I comfortably fit another three more lenses inside. Is perfect for what I was looking for. -- --- Lawrence Ripsher blog:...
  • Replied in Voigtlander 25mm f0.95 first impressions
    Oh interesting. Thanks for letting me know - missed that. I'll try / compare to see if it's noticeable. Thanks --- Lawrence Ripsher http://www.lawrenceripsher.com
  • Replied in 1st time with EP-1 + C-mount Wollensak 25mm f1.5
    Nice... like a lot of c mounts seems v strong for subjects < 10 feet. Less corner distortion than i've seen on many c mounts. Do you have any shots / portraits from a few metres? Looks like a...
  • Created thread Voigtlander 25mm f0.95 first impressions
    Hi - quick post to share my link for a quick write up (and full res samples) for the Voigtlander 25mm...
  • Replied in Just bought a Voigtlander 25mm f0.95 for my G3
    Lens arrived. Surprisingly fast given it came from HK. First image I posted last night is up on my site ('into the deep'); http://www.lostinfocus.org/?cat=158 My initial reaction is...
  • Replied in Just bought a Voigtlander 25mm f0.95 for my G3
    Yeah it's a tough one... Going for the 20mm was that it's cheap, tiny and seems to have outstanding optical qualities for sharpness etc (particularly at center). IMO it's one of the best value...
  • Created thread Just bought a Voigtlander 25mm f0.95 for my G3
    Should arrive by EOW, maybe early next. Was a toss up between that and the new Leica but decided to go for the Nokton. Will post pictures soon. In the meantime, i continue to post pictures from...
  • Replied in G3 images
    Thanks Ken - sorry about the duplicate posts. Hopefully someone from dpreview just deletes them. Re Sora (the dog), he is blind. He is missing an eye and can't see out of the blue one. He lost...
  • Replied in A few G3 images (kit & c-mount lenses)
    Sorry all about the duplicate posts. I was getting an error while posting and resubmitted, not knowing the message was actually going through. Pls ignore the other threads
  • Created thread G3 images
    There's been a few folks asking for more G3 samples so am sharing a few of mine ... Find at the following link. Taken with kit lens & a c-mount Switar 26mm f/1.1 Will be updating daily for the...
