Re: Tamron vs Sigma (70-200 f/2.8)
It is HSM as a couple of newer revised Sigma lenses. But, it sports HSM only. No screwdrive AF. Don't forget that if you have any need for it.

Re: Snow in Raleigh, NC
I guess every law starts off to something, sometimes good. But now and then the results are well off the target. Years ago in BR a new law made a specific felony placing firearms in hands of minors. Target being disarm underage thieves by jailing without bail anyone arming those. Target hit - the law made no allowance to fathers taking their kids to target ranges, shooting contests, etc... Took a while to change that unintended effect, made precious little difference to crime as now the guns used by under and of age thieves started to grow out of bushes, fall from some window or just appear on the ground. Since the place is so extreme you need a law to keep out the unworthy vehicles, you should be able to buy at a special price (with government help, of course) some kind of worthy transportation. If you (like me) dislike those tall SUVs, maybe you could buy a Subaru sedan or station wagon or maybe a Mitsubishi Lancer (all with permanent 4wd, interesting motors available). The moment you get that amendment working, PLEASE tell me so I can move there and get mine, ok? Probably more effective to start testing the drivers in harsh weather and issuing a special all weather license. I know it's been so long since my last driving experience I'm not fit to face any serious snow - I'd need to get back in shape. LF John Sessoms escreveu: From: Luiz Felipe Interesting indeed - if only the government would help you buy a proper vehicle... or set of tyres. Good luck!!! Actually, the idea is just to keep people off the roads who shouldn't be on the roads whenever it snows around here. I'm willing to do my part by staying off the roads. The law just has some unintended effects and while it keeps some idiots off the roads it isn't really effective for dealing with idiots who have 4WD. I think they'd do better to register all 4WD vehicles, test the drivers and make a list of who to preemptively lock up whenever it snows. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions. -- Luiz Felipe luiz.felipe at techmit.com.br http://techmit.com.br/luizfelipe/ -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.

Or do what they do where I am, which is to disregard completely the road conditions when determining fault. I gave a lot of thought to the retesting method of deciding if a person should have a license and concluded that it isn't a useful determinant. Anyone can behave for 15 minutes when being tested, so all the test does is show that they have a skill set, it doesn't determine what they'll do with it in real life. This is one reason for why 16-21 year olds have the highest accident statistics. It's not just because they are inexperienced drivers.

Re: PESO - True Grit
I just received word from a friend of ours that their 21 yr old daughter has a rare form of cancer that will probably take her life in the next 6 months. The onset was very sudden (just a few days ago) so everyone is rather shocked. I can imagine this man receiving some news like this that could cause him to reflect on his way to a hospital or some such. It is a very nice shot and shows inner reflection to me rather than a harshness.

Re: Snow in Raleigh, NC
From: Luiz Felipe I guess every law starts off to something, sometimes good. But now and then the results are well off the target. Years ago in BR a new law made a specific felony placing firearms in hands of minors. Target being disarm underage thieves by jailing without bail anyone arming those. Target hit - the law made no allowance to fathers taking their kids to target ranges, shooting contests, etc... Took a while to change that unintended effect, made precious little difference to crime as now the guns used by under and of age thieves started to grow out of bushes, fall from some window or just appear on the ground. Since the place is so extreme you need a law to keep out the unworthy vehicles, you should be able to buy at a special price (with government help, of course) some kind of worthy transportation. If you (like me) dislike those tall SUVs, maybe you could buy a Subaru sedan or station wagon or maybe a Mitsubishi Lancer (all with permanent 4wd, interesting motors available). The moment you get that amendment working, PLEASE tell me so I can move there and get mine, ok? Probably more effective to start testing the drivers in harsh weather and issuing a special all weather license. I know it's been so long since my last driving experience I'm not fit to face any serious snow - I'd need to get back in shape. The law itself doesn't create the problem. It's the way the insurance companies USE the law to screw people. It was enacted back in the mid-70s when we had a couple of back to back snow storms ... REAL snow storms leaving a foot or more, along with several bad ice storms. It cost the city a lot of money to remove stranded vehicles so they could clean the crap off the roads. It was BTW, after one of those rare snow storms that I saw the church in my current (equally rare) PESO in the snow and began trying to capture what I saw. In my case, I'd ignore the law and take my chances if I had the income to absorb the loss IF I HAD TO. I don't. I used to have a set of tire chains, but they don't fit my current vehicle, and I don't feel like going out and tracking down a new set. Nor do I really want a 4WD vehicle just on the off chance there's going to be a storm. I like the gas mileage I get from my little Mazda sedan. Besides which it don't matter. There's not enough snow around here for people to learn how to drive in it, and the crazy drivers are the real hazard. Having a 4WD vehicle wouldn't change that. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.

What I have seen so far, seems to be very good. I would also like to hear your feelings on usage of the camera, especially the electronic viewfinder in various situations. -- Best regards, Bruce The EVF is quite good. Contrary to DPReview, the low-light performance of the EVF is excellent, there's a small zone of illumination where it's inferior to an optical viewfinder (It gets noisy and starts lagging in low light) but that zone is small and the EVF continues to be usable in light where focusing with an optical VF is pretty much a crapshoot. Overall handling's excellent. I love the flip-out LCD, it's the ultimate waistlevel. I actually find myself using it a lot. IQ is quite good, although it seems the ISO ratings are pessimistic (I'm getting exposures corresponding to ISO 160 when set to ISO 100, and ISO 5000 when set to ISO 3200). It seems Panasonic didn't want to deal with the hassle of people complaining about the base ISO being 160 instead of 100 so they just labelled it 100 instead and worked up from there. The sensor resolution is pretty good and I'm looking forward to trying out some better lenses in the future, the kit lens performs well but the camera's got a lot more in it when matched with better glass. In fact I'm considering selling off some or all of my Nikon kit to fund some M-mount lenses for the G1 (And a Bessa to use them on film too). For what I mostly shoot (cityscapes, candids, low-light variations of the same) I do need soem fast glass, but it's much more versatile than my D300. Oh, and the click-wheel takes the single-wheel interface from livable to excellent. It's much better than using button+wheel controls. However the buttons are mostly chiclets.

Re: OT :: G1 metering/sensitivity (was: PESO - All Aboard!)
On Jan 21, 2009, at 10:01 AM, Adam Maas wrote: IQ is quite good, although it seems the ISO ratings are pessimistic (I'm getting exposures corresponding to ISO 160 when set to ISO 100, and ISO 5000 when set to ISO 3200). It seems Panasonic didn't want to deal with the hassle of people complaining about the base ISO being 160 instead of 100 so they just labelled it 100 instead and worked up from there. I shot a sequence of ISO/meter calibration tests using the E-1, L1 and G1 bodies. I swapped the same lens, Olympus ZD 35mm f/3.5 Macro, to each body for the testing so as not to have any variability based on lens differences. Test setup: Open-shade sunlight, northern exposure, on the porch on a clear sunny day with mid-afternoon sunlight. Reference meter showed light was constant for all exposures. All exposures were made within about a 1 hour period. Checks were made with the reference meter to ensure that the light stayed at a consistent level. - Manual focus, manual exposure, AWB for all exposures; tripod mounted. - f/6.3 lens opening throughout. - ISO values stepped from minimum to maximum for each body, exposure time adjusted from 1/4 to 1/125 second to compensate. Basically, the same manual settings were used on all three bodies to isolate ISO sensitivity from meter readings. - Sekonic L328 incident meter reading was used as the reference target. - Subject target included the Sekonic meter, a Kodak gray card plus decamired grayscale wedges, and a notebook ruled paper page. This latter does a good job of indicating whether you've saturated the capture as the light blue rule lines are easy to blow out. - RAW capture only was evaluated. - All RAW files were imported into Lightroom 2.2 and processed at the LR2 defaults. * * note * :: The E-1's 1600 and 3200 files were given an Exposure setting adjustment of +1 and +2 stops because the E-1 extended range ISO settings are adjusted in software automatically only with Olympus Studio 2. Lightroom and Camera Raw cannot apply the adjustment with the Olympus' proprietary data format and scaling algorithms. However, prior tests making the adjustment indicates the the results are par in terms of noise/color quality with results using Olympus Studio 2. ** Observations: - The L1 and G1 bodies' meters both indicated an overexposure condition of +0.7EV for all exposures. The E-1 body's meter indicated overexposure of +1EV. - All files color correction on default settings as above is very close to the same, and just a shade cool as expected given the shaded, open sun lighting. - Measurements were made of five reference points on the gray card in Lightroom's Develop module. The L1 and E-1 images show values from 49-52% in all three component channels, the G1 images show values from 59-61% taken at the same points. This indicates that the G1's actual ISO is more sensitive relative to the E-1 and L1 bodies by between +0.3 to +0.5 EV, based upon prior gray scale tests to understand the relationship between LR's percentage readings and in-camera EV-based exposure settings. - Considering the meter readings vs the actual data indicated values, the E-1's meter calibration is most protective of highlight values, the G1's the least, with the L1's in the middle of the range. In a sense, the combination of the G1's slightly more sensitive than the rated ISO performance and the G1 meter's indicated setting compared to the reference meter, the G1's exposure system could be considered the most accurate. Most accurate doesn't necessarily mean that it produces the best exposures, remember: only that it will indicate where saturation exposure will happen with the greatest accuracy, at least for my use of RAW format capture. Practical application of this observation means that in cases where I'm using AE, if I set the E-1 to +.7-1 EV compensation, I'd set the L1 to +.3-.7 EV and the G1 would fall in the range from -.3 to +.3 EV. Another way of looking at it is that I'm more likely to get full, correct RAW exposure without underexposure if I keep the G1 on 0EV where I'd need +.3 and +.7 on the L1 and E-1 to achieve the same thing. For a Pentax reference, metering for RAW capture with the *ist DS usually meant +.3-.7 EV compensation and +0-.3 compensation for the K10D in similar lighting conditions. (As an aside, the *only* camera I've owned to date that actually adjusted the metering calibration properly for RAW capture was the Sony R1. Switching from JPEG to RAW capture with that camera automatically re-evaluated the correct exposure setting and gave an average boost of +.3-.7 EV over JPEG only readings for the same scene.) --- I'm continuing to look at these files as a great deal of information can be obtained from them. Particularly interesting are the noise and detailing characteristics at ISO 800 and 1600 (and 3200 with the G1 and E-1)

Re: Peso Ice and Chain cropped
Hi Dave I prefer the crop. Well, I would, wouldn't I :-) However, I think this is one of those situations where nature is conspiring against you. All of those small branches add clutter and there's probably not a lot you could have done about that with any sort of crop. Maybe a different viewing angle that gave better contrast between the ice and the background would have helped. But some things are just not possible!

Thanks every one for the comments. As far as the crop, i just did something quick, that i liked.
