Re: Tornado in Newbury with NX100

I agree. The planar 3 looks better as it looks more like the cab is oversized and the eye accepts that as a photographic artefact. The original looks more strange. I wondered at first if they had put on an ovesized tender because water must be difficult to take on nowadays without troughs and lineside water towers. The tender is about half the length of the loco in reality.

Interesting about actual 50mm being neutral for perspective not equivalent 50mm. I will look that up, always assumed it was the equivalent.

Enjoy the flying.

Regards,

Mike

Comparing all 3 I think I prefer the proportions of the MS ICE Planar 3 mode. Unfortunately it has not properly handled all the images and theire is a clear step between 1st and 2nd left images that make up the panoram. Also what Ian Leach has said in his posting is also probably relevant regarding the "out of proportion" size of the tender.
