When it opened in my browser, the whole foreground (& most of the wall) was 
"cropped". It changes the whole perspective, like a pano, emphasising the 
lea & the clouds. What do you think?

Assuming Ricoh is still around and supporting medium format digital in
2019/2020, one of these sensors will be in that upcoming version of
the 645C (if using the 100MP) or 645CL (if using the 150MP version).
No reason they couldn't produce both, for that matter.

Thanks for your kind words. The pic was literally taken while on the
move, hence there is some motion blur. There was one other frame but the
figure in the distance had changed completely and so the moment was gone.

If out walking with a very light, single lens combo, if it's a bright
day then I only take the Voigtlander 15mm f/4.5. On Micro Four Thirds
this gives a similar angle of view to a 30mm lens on 'full frame'.

I'll set the focus based on aperture, in this case f8, and then
generally leave it, snapping away at will. If the weather is poorer or I
feel a need for something wider then I'll take the Samyang 15mm f/2 but
this is much heavier.

The Voigtlander can be a nice sharp lens at f/8, but as with any camera,
care must be taken with shutter speed. I just looked and this shot was
1/60th at ISO 200. I keep ISO values on 4 custom settings on the main
top dial, so C1 is ISO 200, C2 is 400, C3 is 800 and C4 is 3200. I
should really have had it set to 4 or even 800 in the trees, I must have
forgotten to change it after moving from open fields to shadow.

I put the camera up to my eye and fired as soon as the shot was framed,
slowing my stride slightly. In the event, I didn't mind the motion blur
as my eye was drawn to the figure anyway and the shapes of the trees and
branches gave it a slightly dreamy feel, almost nightmarish.

>To show you how messed up I am, I'd have cloned out the white patch on

>The more anonymous the greater the impact.

Nor sure if I follow you here, do you mean the space immediately above
the figure's head? Or higher up in the branches of the tree?

OT Waiting for Bobot

2017-04-16 Thread mike wilson
I was hoping to show a pic or two of BobW and his friend Don holding their bikes
aloft after completing the UK's sea to sea cycle route.

Unfortunately the two shattered remnants of humanity that hove into view this
afternoon, begging for hot chocolate and other warm sustenance after the weather
took a decided turn for the arctic, were hardly able to hold themselves aloft,
never mind their bikes.  It would have been more than cruel to point a lens at
them.  So I didn't.  But we were all very impressed at the intestinal fortitude
displayed.

Thanks for your kind words. The pic was literally taken while on the
move, hence there is some motion blur. There was one other frame but the
figure in the distance had changed completely and so the moment was gone.

If out walking with a very light, single lens combo, if it's a bright
day then I only take the Voigtlander 15mm f/4.5. On Micro Four Thirds
this gives a similar angle of view to a 30mm lens on 'full frame'.

I'll set the focus based on aperture, in this case f8, and then
generally leave it, snapping away at will. If the weather is poorer or I
feel a need for something wider then I'll take the Samyang 15mm f/2 but
this is much heavier.

The Voigtlander can be a nice sharp lens at f/8, but as with any camera,
care must be taken with shutter speed. I just looked and this shot was
1/60th at ISO 200. I keep ISO values on 4 custom settings on the main
top dial, so C1 is ISO 200, C2 is 400, C3 is 800 and C4 is 3200. I
should really have had it set to 4 or even 800 in the trees, I must have
forgotten to change it after moving from open fields to shadow.

I put the camera up to my eye and fired as soon as the shot was framed,
slowing my stride slightly. In the event, I didn't mind the motion blur
as my eye was drawn to the figure anyway and the shapes of the trees and
branches gave it a slightly dreamy feel, almost nightmarish.

>To show you how messed up I am, I'd have cloned out the white patch on

>The more anonymous the greater the impact.

Nor sure if I follow you here, do you mean the space immediately above
the figure's head? Or higher up in the branches of the tree?

Steve,

Only thing I see that I'd wish I'd done, were it proudly mine, would be to 
increase the DoF to sharpen
some of the closer left one third.
To show you how messed up I am, I'd have cloned out the white patch on top of 
the figures head.
The more anonymous the greater the impact.

Re: OT - Wi-Fi Enabled SD Cards

2017-04-16 Thread Peter McIntosh
Hi Brian,

I've got a 16Gb Eyefi Mobi card  in my Olympus TG-850.  I have used it
to transfer to my Android phone and Android tablet.  Initial
connection can be a little slow, but it's stable once connected and
transfer rates are fine.  You'll need the Android app on the device of
course.

I just went onto the eyefi site and clicked on Shop, and it seems they
have partnered with Toshiba; I was taken to Amazon and a Toshiba 32GB
FlashAir III Wireless SD Memory Card.

>From vague memory I purchased mine from Digital Camera Warehouse, but
they're no longer available.

Hope this helps.
