I met a fishermen yesterday at the nearby alotment and he has rabbits and chicken and has build his small little "wooden paradise" stuffed full with strange things. There are sterlings breeding in his garden in bird-houses and he told me that I should be able to take some photos very early in the morning and late in the evening quite easily.
He asked me to take a photo of the inside of his small "paradise" and I used the Kit lens at 18mm with the Metz 32MZ-3 on a Metz 372 Pentax module for that photo. The Metz is a lot harder to handle in auto mode than the Pentax AF280T on the K10D and I had to make several shots to find the correct aperture against heavy overexposure by setting the flash at F4/F8 and the camera at F11-F16 outside. Inside his room it was so dark that I had to set the camera to F4 1/30 ISO400. What do you use to correct the distortion of wide angles, manual Photoshop transformation or the aperture correction filter or anything else? I cropped most of the (quite) distorted part of that photo away and used transformation then. Is there anything better that knows the Pentax characteristics lenses already? http://www.mypage.bluewin.ch/solicom/fishermen.jpg greetings Markus -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
