Re: DA*16-50mm/2.8 and FA28-70mm/2.8

[Stanley Halpin]

I had the 16-50 and enjoyed it. I Enjoy using primes more, and have 15, 21, 35, 
and 50mm lenses that cover that range adequately. But I never had any quality 
or mechanical issues with the lens.

I have never had the 28-70 so can’t do any sort of comparison. However, as I 
recall the 28-70 had the reputation of being a very sharp lens that had a fatal 
construction flaw; one of the lens elements would delaminate. If you believe 
the stories, it was not a question of whether your copy of the lens was going 
to delaminate, rather it was a question of when.

I was wandering through eBay recently and noticed a 28-70 for sale at a very 
reasonable price. In the fine print the seller noted that they had not gotten 
the sharp images from the lens that they expected and thought maybe one lens 
element was out of alignment. I think they had one of the infamous cases of 
delimitation. For which, AFIK, there is no cure.

I always look at Dag's photos very quickly as I fear that something in 
the picture will disappear or be erased or somehow move off the frame & 
I will not ever see it, making me wish I had looked at it yesterday when 
it was complete.  Dag's photography is all about what isn't there.

Stairwell three is my preference. #1 does have a slightly superior "eye' image,

Re: GESO: Pics from BluesQuake

[Igor PDML-StR]

Nicole,

I enjoyed looking at this series.
The first thought that popped up in my mind after looking at these photos 
was the same as what I've written about your previous series from a dance 
event: I enjoy the way you are framing these photos.
Having seen tons of dance-event photos, I think it is one of the 
main things that make such photos interesting and powerful.


From that perspective, I'd say that lack of focus on the guy in
NAJ54780.jpg makes it not as strong. In a similar way, 
having a deeper DOF in NAJ54762.jpg, so that the woman were also in 
focus would be great, but I understand that you were shooting at f/1.4 due 
to the low light. (And the guy's facial expression is not exactly 
inspiring/-ed.)
 Also, I am not sure if this photo is as interesting as the rest: 
NAJ54533.jpg .
I think the rest of the photos are much  stronger, so you might 
consider just skipping these three.




PS. I thought you should've posted the masterpiece photo not at the 
end of the other thread where some people might just skip it, but either 
in this message, or yet separately!

I am talking about this one: https://flic.kr/p/HuH1up

Cheers!

Igor

I didn’t get to spend as much time editing as I’d like, unfortunately — 
this is the crazy season at work before our big developers conference… I 
did have a chance to play with my 360 degree camera on the dance floor 
though.  I haven’t had a chance to do anything with those yet.  Hopefully 
there’ll be something interesting there to share.

Hatched a couple days ago, shot with the 80-200, unfortunately, the good 
spot to photograph is too far for the macro and too close for the bigma, 
so they're heavily cropped.

Yes, the very low light conditions meant I had to shoot at f/1.4 and hope.   
Thank you for the feedback on the photos — selecting/pruning down photos is 
something I struggle with, and I really appreciate getting your opinion as well 
as the rationale behind it.  I really wish the guy in NAJ54762 had a more 
interesting expression — ah, well, perhaps I selected it for the photo I hoped 
for.  I kinda like 54533, but I have to agree with you on 54780 — I wish the 
focus was reversed.

Good point, so I did a separate PESO.  He thinks about the K1 24/7.  When he 
finally gets one, I’m not sure he’ll know what to spend his time thinking about.

On a separate note, I need to check that lens, it wasn’t focusing well at all...

Good point, so I did a separate PESO.  He thinks about the K1 24/7. 
When he finally gets one, I’m not sure he’ll know what to spend his time 
thinking about.


That "K1 24/7" - got me thinking for a moment: "What is that very exotic 
lens?.."


The next step after K1 will be 15-30/2.8 (unless Sigma will come out with 
a FF version of 15-30/1.8).

There is always some new fetish!.. ;-)

Cheers,

Igor



On a separate note, I need to check that lens, it wasn’t focusing well 
at all...


I've been less then completely happy with FA 50/1.4 + K-7 & K-5 IIs 
while shooting dances in low light @ f/1.4. I've even had the lens checked 
by the Pentax repair master.
I like the performance of 35/1.8 and 77/1.8 (Limiteds) under the same 
conditions much-much better.

That was the 28-70 f/4.0 not the 2.8.

  
I can vouch for that, I had an early 28-70 f4.0 that did just that. It 
appears that it was a composite molded plastic and glass aspherical 
element that failed to hold together.  The second copy that I acquired, 
seems to be holding together, though it's construction is well 
plastic-ey.  Sadly the plastic fantastic FA zooms don't seem to wear

College Station and Bryan had not suffered as much. But today's weather

That’s a very pleasant subject, Eric.  I have a nephew in an ernest effort 
teaching himself written Japanese.  I was impressed when he showed me his notes 
and worksheets.  


Cheers, Christine

PESO: Inside Larry's mind

[Nicole Jacque]

Igor pointed out that I buried the link to this picture deep inside another 
thread, and it really does deserve a little more exposure.

https://flic.kr/p/HuH1up

I, of course did not edit the photo at all.  That thought bubble just follows 
Larry around….

OT - Lots of water and tornado touchdown

[Igor PDML-StR]

I know that some PDMLers are interested in various severe weather events.
I am not sure if this made the national news yet...

Torrential downpour (do not mix with torrent download! ;-)) is not rare in 
this part of Texas. Large portions of Houston and Dallas have been 
severely flooded several times over the past year.
College Station and Bryan had not suffered as much. But today's weather 
was rather severe. Two tornado warnings with one touchdown less then 8 
miles from our home ...

And flash flooding ...

This short news video shows the amount of water running through some major 
roads:

http://www.khou.com/weather/possible-tornado-hits-bryancollege-station-area/216188498

And there are some photos of the tornado aftermath:
http://www.theeagle.com/gallery/photo-gallery-severe-weather-in-the-brazos-valley/collection_8499ca26-2377-11e6-8b3d-bbaec356ba8d.html
and more (below the several embedded videos) of both 
water and tornado effects:
