Some more bugs for ya'll...




This lady bird kept flying away from me; being a real pain to photograph. I had pretty much given up when it landed on my arm. I coerced it onto a plant and it walked around while I shot it. It eventually nicked off, never to be seen again.

I'm finding my shots look noisier than they used to when blowing up despite it only being ISO400 (which never used to give me any grief). Would any one know why this is? Is there a setting on the K-x I've changed with out realizing, haha?

nice captures... great colors in the ladybug shot... dave m
(btw.... cut and paste your exif info.... maybe the noise issue lies within... also... what setting do you have the nr set for in camera....)

[tails]

Dimensions: 4288 X 2848
Focal Length: 28mm
Exposure: 1/100
ISO: 400
Flash: Did Fire

I have it set so NR doesn't activate until 800, and when there is NR it's only set to medium. Should I lower the NR so it happens at 400?
