More fp test shots

I took the Sigma fp camera and the 45 mm lens for a walk in Bear Creek Park today. After having trouble with the menu and some functions on the camera that were not familiar to me I downloaded the instruction manual last night and read through several sections to learn how this little beast works. As they say 'when all else fails, read the instruction book!' I had a much better outing today and I still have lots to learn on operating this little gem.
I have taken photos in the park for over 50 years using 35 mm and Medium format film cameras and several Sigma digital cameras. The fp is small and easy to carry on strolls in the park. If I were going to use this camera a lot I would really need a focusing hood.
I like the colors of the images and better DR of this camera compared the Merrill and Quattro cameras. Stay tuned, I will post more images in the next few days. I also plan to read more of the instruction manual


Enjoy!
