Embracing the digital age.
For a whole variety of reasons I've been reduced to reading posts, rather than actively posting but as I know I'm going to be on limited computer time again over the next week, I wanted to pass my best to you all for Christmas and the New Year. Over the last few months I have really thought about the direction I want to take with photography in 2011, and looked at what I have in the way of equipment and how often I really use it. As a result, I have had a radical clear out and sold off all my film cameras, duplicate lenses and nearly all my non-Pentax equipment. I have also sold on my older Pentax DSLRs and I now have a K-7 only and no back up camera of any description. Christmas this year will not bring any photographic gifts my way, but I'm looking at getting a back up DSLR sometime next year; which Pentax model that will be I've yet to decide! Anyway, back to your regular viewing.

Re: Why I shoot primes + Another FA*24 Shot
On Dec 23, 2010, at 1:27 AM, Andrew Allen wrote: Why do I shoot primes? Well, one poster was in-part correct that a favorite tool becomes ingrained with a person - and I am more effective with the tool I'm comfortable/happy/proficient with. Secondly, if I'm going to carry a tool - I want the highest quality one available for that specific function (focal length); I want the best combination of speed/IQ/size, and though it isn't tiny, the FA*24 is much smaller than any kit zoom, not to mention f2.8 glass. Another reason is the 'zone' one gets in when shooting a prime (this is hard to describe) - the familiarity of the focal length, with enough practice, leaves one to focus on composition and 'see' the shot without even lifting the camera to my eye. Though zooms are much better than they were 30 years ago, they are still large/heavy, don't encourage movement by the photographer, elicit different reactions than a small prime, and don't necessarily achieve the 'max IQ' that a prime like the FA*24 or FA31 can and do. I am absolutely certain that the IQ achievable with the DA* 16-50/2.8 is, to the naked eye, indistinguishable from that of the FA* 24. Favorite tool is a valid reason, and for those who are shooting mainly for personal enjoyment, being restricted to a single focal length is fine. I love shooting with a compact setup and getting the very very best quality possible out of my sensor (hence, why I also shoot RAW exclusively). If you're leaving your lens hood at home, you're not getting the very very best possible out of your sensor. There will frequently be a minimal amount of veiling flare when shooting with even the most flare-resistant lens, if you work without a hood. This isn't an approach that will work for everyone (and it's definitely not the most convenient), but it's what draws me to Pentax, excites me about Leica, and fits my approach to photography (primarily artistic). Despite not being as convenient, there is nothing stopping me from shooting photo-journalistic (news) shots with a K-5 and a setup of lenses covering wide-angle to portrait. Deadlines and fast changing conditions will stop you. Been there done that -- for more than 25 years. But I respect your choices. Paul I typically keep the FA*24 hood at home because it's excessively large, easily scratched up, and not really needed for the most part (the FA*24 doesn't have excessive flare).

Re: Embracing the digital age.
I did the same thing a while back. Earlier on, I had a hard time with digital. I think the take as many as you want devalued the pictures in my mind. The most difficult part, however, was adjusting to the lack of prints. It makes no sense since you can have them done at Walmart if you like, but you had to do it with film whereas it felt like a waste of money with jpgs. One of my favorite parts of the the PDML is that you do have a place to show your pictures, and that provides a nudge to complete the process and get your shots to the show the world stage.

Re: PESO: Two benches
OK Rick, you shamed me into it. Here is a modified version of the Two Benches photo.

Re: PESO: Two benches
Don't know about Rick, but I like it better. The really nice monochrome is upset somewhat by the grass color. I'd have to go BW for a look. Also, grab your telephoto and shoot that other bench and great barren dead tree across the frozen river. Hopefully, you can do it before the snow melts from the limbs.

PESO - Great Blue
I spotted this guy standing in the Rouge River on my way home from one store this morning. Had to stop home then make a second trip, so I picked up my K5, which already had the DA* 60-250 mounted. I figured he'd be gone, but to my surprise, he hung around. This is cropped to about 40% of frame. The A 400/5.6 might have been a better choice, although 40% of the 60-250 frame might be better than 80% of the A400 frame, as the latter tends to CA.

VESO The Gaskell Ball
Here are some videos I took with the K-x last weekend at the Gaskell Ball, a victorian style dance held every two months in Oakland. The quality of video is proof that I am not Cotty. It shows how the video works in less than ideal conditions. The biggest problem seems to be the quality of the audio. They were mostly shot with my sigma 20/1.8 with the focus set somewhere beyond 5 feet and I just relied on depth of field to get something recognizable. The dance Congress of Vienna was actually choreographed in the 1970s (IIRC) by John Hertz, and is meant to be in the style of dancing of the English Regency, which would be rather retro for the Victorian time period portrayed at Gaskells.

I'll take delivery of one next week or so as part of my effort to build a business around used photo gear. Having heard so many good things about them, I look forward to giving it a good try before selling it again, hopefully at a profit. Yep, I got a 3530LS. I had a Gitzo 1548 that was bought solely for my 600mm. It had an annoying feature that in led to my selling it - the 3 section legs rotated when you tried to lock/unlock them - it required two hands on each leg to extend/or retract them. With the 3530LS they incorporated so called 'G' locks that only required one hand to extend/retract. A definite improvement which makes you wonder why this issue wasn't noticed by them in the development stage - I mean they've been making them for years. Anbother reason to get the 3530 was that it weighed significantly less than the 1548 (both carbon fiber) and in fact weighed less than my everyday Bogen (that I sold to a list member) - so I went from two tripods down to one and with what I sold both tripods for It was a wash on the 3530. Out of the box the 3530 had some build in issues also - the rubber feet needed to be 'Loctited' in as they would back out during usage and I'd probably have lost one before I was told to look out for it. It also had an improperly torqued top bolt that allowed the top plate to to move out of position that would have eventually detatched from the tripod legs with head and lens attached. A lot of money for these Gitzos but I feel I'll never have to but another tripod.

Re: PESO - Great Blue
Thanks Ecke. I barked like a dog, whistled and stamped my feet, trying to get him to fly away, and he didn't budge. So I figured I'd move upstream a bit and try to get a shot from a further forward position. Of course, as soon as I lowered the camera to move, he took flight. It was quite a sight with his five-foot wingspan, but I didn't get it.

It's not that old! It was built in 1917, and modeled after the Palazzo Vecchio in Florence, by the inventor of the once popular headache remedy. It now houses studios for the visual and literary arts. Thanks for looking.

I'm Back!
Arrived back here in Asheboro about 4:00am EST. Flight out of Beijing was delayed 3 hours, but fortunately, my connecting flight from Newark to RDU was delayed 3-1/2 hours, so I didn't have to struggle with missed connections getting back home. Looks like I've only got about 56 digests to catch up. Pentax dealer at PC Mall in Nanjing had the 645D for 65,900 RMB (~ 10,500 USD), but didn't have it in stock. They could get it for me in a couple of days. I was leaving for Beijing that evening. Moot because I didn't have that much money on me, but I would have liked to just get to see it maybe hold it for a few minutes. 8-D Received a couple of emails while I was gone that my Gawker password has been compromised ... didn't even know I had a Gawker password. I don't find it on my list. -- 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.
