  • Good stuff. I think #2 is my favourite. Can't figure out the deal with the squiggly "rays" from the sun - first I thought those were fortuitous clouds, but they seems stuck with the sun no matter...
  • I, for one, am interested to see your work with GNX gear - we get close to nothing from it otherwise, and despite some comments here earlier looking at your site it is immediately obvious why you...
  • Replied in K-3 New Images
    MM, I feel for you, because the number of times I've used any movie recording can be counted on the fingers of one hand. But it is very likely that film features are actually sponsoring the camera...
  • Brushes are useful, but for complicated objects like this I much prefer the LZ zone approach to selective editing. Zoning and your own selective amount of feathering makes it easy and quick, and...
  • While I agree with the list, I would add: 4.5 Very fast AF. You need to spend a lot of money to get matching or better AF performance. 4.6 Not very useful for MF. The same short throw length that...
  • Created discussions Post your fall pictures
    Early fall is possibly the most beautiful of all the seasons. Rioting colours, stormy skies, light and darkness. A few of mine below - post yours too! NX1000/20-50

  • I absolutely love the last one. Those light cones are just delicious. Are these shot B/W or converted? If converted, they're a bit too dramatic in the shadows for my taste.
  • Great shot to play with. So many different ways to go with it. Here's one.
  • I would not recommend any mirrorless - except the possibly the Nikon 1 - for action shots. S-AF is useless for rapid movement, and C-AF is laughable. But the real problem is shutter lag. Action...
  • That's great stuff, Kaizaku. The portrait is well lit, well framed, well dof'd and well post-processed. Solid, solid work.
  • Replied in NX1000 sensor
    I'm really not defending dpr, which I think has been slowly deteriorating in its core mission to do solid reviews of photographic equipment, but dpr owes Samsung nothing. If Samsung is a...
  • Replied in NX1000 sensor
    Hard to blame them. I mean, they know very well which reviews draw clicks and pageviews. Which is why every boring Canon DSLR update gets a speedy review. If Samsung ever gets its act together and...
  • I absolutely adore the surreal feeling of #1. Wanted to see how long the exposure was, but 76/1 seems a bit over the top, and all the exposure times seem wonky. Do you recall at this point?
  • That's the one I have for my DSLR, albeit in the Adaptall version. These cheap 500s are surprisingly useful, if one accepts their limitations. Here's a bunch of pics taken with the Adaptall, none...

  • Like it. Two opinions - I bet there's lots more of dynamic in that sky if you process it, and I would probably crop out the bench.
  • Tried for a 50's postcard feel. Very nice photo, btw. Click for full size, as ever, since dpr mangles previews something fierce.
  • Well, well. I was convinced Nikon 1 was nothing for me. And suddenly, if reviews confirm it's half as good as it looks on paper, I probably have my next camera purchase for the vacations.

    Pretty...

  • I occasionally have the opportunity to use a 5Dmk3 with a 85/1.2 and a 50/1.2 for portrait work. Frankly, I can't imagine using them wide open without very good AF. With the Canon, I have to use...
