Thanks Joel. I have to go to Pbase to register and open an account first. I took some pictures after I received my new G2. Most of the pictures are out-of-focus :

I had to send back my G2 for exchanges for the hot pixels problems, hopefully I can take some better one once I receive the replacement.

Hi fpw,

You just paste the link to the picture and add .jpg at the end (at
least that's the way it works with Pbase)

What can I say expect those are amazing! What a great collection. I'm really impressed. What camera did you use?

Hi Mike,

Great gallery, great place.

Hi Joel,

very nice colors.

Hi @ll!

Nice pics so far - I'm curious to see more. The thread seems to become more and more interesting.

Well, I hope not everybody already knows my favorites:

Nightshot: A ship leaving a floodgate - taken in January at full moon (one of my first G1 images)

Macro: A cricket taken with a B+W NL4 macro lens in late August - he sat at my computer-chair and he wasn't a bit anxious - I could put him on a plant in my window, before I took this shot

Action Shooting: An oldtimer taken with TC-DC58 teleconverter two weeks ago at the Nuerburg-Ring

All pics have only been resized for the web to 1024x768 - no further editing.

Hi everybody,

Can you dig trough you pics and pick out the one (not easy, only
one) picture that you thinks is the best that you took? The one
that shows the very best your camera can take. As long as you have
a Canon, show me (us) your best.

I'll start (since I only had my camera for 2 weeks, I'm sure the
best is yet to come!)

Shot with G2 1.3sec shutter:

Yeah, I thought the flash was going to send them stinging into me, but they didn't even budge when it went off....guess they don't perceive bright light as a threat.

Hey fpw,

I just sent my G2 back too because of a hot pixel and a permanently red pixel in the LCD display. I was debating whether to keep it before I found the hot pixel that showed up in the images after I downloaded them, but decided it was best to get another one. I had to pay shipping back to the retailer...that's the little bummer about it...and the fact that I don't have a camera until the replacement comes.

Wow!

Those vertical panoramas look tough to do. What kind of gear do you use (tripod etc..).

Reminds me of the parking lot at Whale Harbour in Islamorada (sp?), in the Keys. I think one of those trees looks familiar

Sorry I had to post links to the images... I am having trouble
with my host...

One from Ireland of the River Liffey in late February:

A G-1 was used for this Antelope Canyon gallery. Some of the details are in the introduction to the gallery.

No, the vertical panos are quite easy to do with the pano mode in the camera to prompt the shot to shot overlap. A 3 way panhead tripod was used and simply panned in the vertical direction.

I would add the the use of 1 gb microdrive, the swivel lcd and RAW were very important. Everything except the panos were shot with bracketing, so over 1000 RAW images over 3 short visits were taken, and the best of the 3 exposures was saved upon evening review. The swiveling LCD was really useful in framing the vertical panos as I could counter rotate the LCD so I didn't have to lay down on the ground to frame the overlaping shots. Also shots like the second one (vortex) was shot straight up, and the swiveling LCD is the only reasonable way to do this. Digitals do have some advantages over film SLRs.
