Re: An update!
Rheina, What camera and lens do you have now? Does it auto-focus, camera or lens? If all are totally manual then I recommend you take a look at Olympus.....funny thing.....Olympus has lowered it prices, where C & N are raising theirs:D. If your current camera & lens does auto-focus then I suggest you take a look at… -
Re: Waiting for Mr UPS....
Thanks all! I knew folks in here would understand the absurd thrill of not only a new lens, but a new really COOL lens :D As far as I can tell, it looks like new - no marks, obvious brassing or anything else I've found yet. It's the Mk 1 (with built-in hood, which is the one I wanted), was EX grade, and the gross price was… -
Re: BIGMA+Kenko Pro 300 1.4X TC-Surfing
Here's another image with f/6.3 uncorrected for TC at 500mm (1,050mm EQ) (By the by, how does one calculate how much the TC changes the aperture?) <img src="https://us.v-cdn.net/6029383/emoji/headscratch.gif" border="0" alt="" > DOF calculator indicates the DOF is around 7' for subject at ~300' and f/6.3; ~10' for f/9. In… -
Re: Point and Shoot help
Capable mid-priced Point & Shoot thoughts I've been looking at this situation as well. If you're still looking, you may want to consider Canon's new A710, announced a month ago. It's very light at 210 grams, and very small, but not so tiny as the SD line, which I find difficult to use for that reason. My wife has the SD500… -
Re: Uploading troubles
OK got through to someone who knew their stuff :-o far quicker than usual (everyone else still on hols?) and he explained that I can do a tracert from my computer by going into the Applications>utilities>network>tracert, typing in 'upload.smugmug.com' and hitting the 'trace' button (See result below). From the results… -
Re: Help guide me. Warning, long post.
Personally, I think you just need to really learn your equipment....you have a full frame camera.....and some nice lenses...just learn how to use them.....until about 2 yrs ago I was shsooting a pair of 6mp Konica Minolta 7D's with Sigma Lenses (24-70f2.8 / 70-210 f2.8) and there was nothing stopping me from shooting great… -
Re: Back Where I Belong with Ann Marie
this is a very nice set...all of them.... I am not going to pick on them as that has already been done. I have loved all of my past and present Sigma Lenses a 24-70f2.8 is a wonderful lens and the Sigma 70-200 is a great lens also ... ... ... I have heard horror stories of bad copies and such, however I have never… -

Re: Color Management ??
She is standing in the shade in a forest - I would expect blue,green tones in this environment. Sky yields blue light ( as in shade ) and green leaves filter in the green light from sunlight. That is how the scene looks, what you are searching for is how you want it to look. I prefer the second image. When I read the pixel… -
FS - D200, D50, various lenses
So, with the recent canon rebates, and the 5D calling my name louder and louder, i've decided to make the jump to the "dark" side. I'm posting my current Nikon collection on here first before i throw it on ebay(i hope it doesn't come to that...). First off, i'm located in Canada, so that's where i'll be shipping from.…
