Re: Pentax K3-iii Monochrome

This video puts the finger on the weak spot in that for street photography a bulky DSLR nowadays upsets a lot of people. I do recognize however the beauty of B/W for such type of photography. Speaking to a street photographer the other day he told me that he mostly shoot from the hip with a

Interesting what he says about optical viewfinders and monochrome cameras - exactly what I felt. Actually very interested in this camera after seeing that video. Paired up with the A*85/1.4 that would be a killer concert camera for shooting at music gigs etc. On 13 Apr 2023, at 21:50,

Lovely stuff. The cafe reminded me immediately of the closing scenes of Haneke’s ‘Happy End’. I love the way the word Frites slides downwards, and if I ever buy a house again I shall call it Villa Kunterbunt. > On 13 Apr 2023, at 17:42, Ralf R Radermacher wrote: > > We haven't made it to

I’m in the process of selling my Olympus Pen F - I haven’t used it hardly at all in quite a while, but that’s down to being busy in other areas like music, boat-building, oh yeah and work! I still have my trusty little Fuji X20 which incidentally I am going to build a custom power supply for as

I've been working with the Leica M10 Monochrom for about a year now. Larry has it correct ... Think of a monochrome camera's output as a simple recording based on the sensor's spectral sensitivity curve, just as you do with B film, and use B color filters to modify the translation of color

A few Easter PESOs

We haven't made it to Dunkirk yet again, this Easter, so here are a few PESOs from earlier years: The Café du Cap Gris Nez was very popular with day trippers. It has been closed and demolished in 2006 at the behest of local environmentalists:

Re: Pentax K3-iii Monochrome

I don't think it is firmware on this one, I think it comes down to the response of the silicon since it doesn't have a Bayer filter. You would have to choose a color filter when shooting, just as with black and white film. I could make all sorts of technical arguments against it, but it's
