Boookeh

I run a Sigma sdQh system which is probably a bit eccentric, but I do love its Foveon sensor and film like handling for landscape, (and the ease of switching into infrared). Its cheap to adapt the ...

Hi all Am thinking of switching over my Fuji to Panasonic, but there is one thing that I can't seem to replicate in the Panasonic line. Fuji make a fantastic little 50-230 lens, its probably 50% ...

Thanks Gentlemen.. unfortunately I need an 82mm rather than 77mm And.. I'll check out the ICE filter. They seem to be reasonably good value most of the time..

Hi all I'm liking the infrared capabilities of my sdQh but one thing that would be really useful would be to have an external infrared blocking filter (preferably 100mm square so it would fit in my ...

Still getting to grips with the sdQh infrared and monochrome processing. Here's another attempt. It's tricky to get the highlights right... and make the picture look 'realistic'. This is about a ...

Excellent, I enjoyed that. Thank you! Sometimes even a trolling post from Camfiasco can result in an interesting thread. At least it beats debating the eternally tedious FFF question or whether ...

This one is IR... shot a few days ago. sdQh with 17-50 2.8... just because that happens to be the one lens I have that fits the IR filter. This one also made it to Flickr Explore yesterday which is ...

Yes, I have the 50 and although I also have the 24-105 zoom, I tend to use the 50 if I can. It is an astonishingly good lens, blows everything else into the weeds. Check out the reviews on ...

Okay, you can all shoot me for posting late to this thread but I think we're missing an important feature of this camera and the SDQ, and that's the ability to pop out the infrared filter in front ...

Really love my sdQh... it is a pleasure to make pictures with it. I'm sure it will take a long time to master this beast! A fairly recent selection below culled from Flickr.. The dappled path Field ...

My sdQH came with sensor dust from Sigma UK, but once you pop out the IR filter its pretty straightforward to use a blower to remove small dust particles from the sensor without touching it. I ...

Dappled path Shot at the start of the week with the 24-105 on sdQH. Some processing in RT, to add a touch more mist :-)

Great pictures, thanks!

That's the basic issue with wildlife, much of the time it is hiding during the day, and you want to capture that animal that's moving fast in the twilight. My Fuji is plenty good enough to do ...

That's exactly what I have found with my Fuji and telephotos. I found that attempting to shoot out at 400mm you better have a lot of light or it is a dead loss (of course you can crank up the ISO ...

Thanks for the linky. They are indeed great shots but many are shot in plenty of lovely sunlight, and he seems to have dropped Sigma and gone to Nikon in about 2014 if that gallery is ...

To clarify, the Foveon is at it's best at 100 ISO (in my humble opinion), you may choose to disagree! That means that unless you have a lot of light at your disposal, you're limited to running ...

Given the limitations of Foveon, especially the sensitivity, and the somewhat less than rapid handling of Sigma cameras, I would have thought this was practically impossible, But Sigma do sell ...

Good find.. I added the lens name manually in this case when finalizing the picture for putting up on the 'net. Usually the camera itself will write the lens name into the metadata, usually I ...

I've just got this lens this week alongside the 17-70 and I'll sell the 17-70 as the range of the 24-105 works well for me and I have the 20 as well for wider shots. Haven't had your experience ...
