Lol, I wondered who would be the first person to point that one out. I still like it even if that hair (or whatever it was) does annoy me

Nice image!

Something different, with the k200d+ fa77. No live view, no mirrors.-

Nice one TOUGEFC! Is that a gas mask?

A shot of my pregnant wife's bump taken whilst walking in the autumn woods.

K200D and FA43

Nice work !, homage to Digitalis' 50 1.2 mirrored shot obviously.

If that's a self portrait at a wafer thin DOF f1.8 I'm impressed (unless youve got 100 others that missed, which is the way I'd do it.)

TOUGEFC · 10-29-2010, 06:01 AM

Thanks guys! yeah self portrait at 1/20 and f/1.8 using just the pentax f remote in left hand to focus and shoot.

Yeah Bickrs, its a gas mask (soviet) im going to be using it for project i have an idea for.....

Nice pregnant shot too by the way

The FA77 was exactly the same lens I used for mine, though you need to bring the lens a lot closer to the camera, because the image from a f/1.7 lens isn't going to appear as large as an image from a f/1.2 lens ( the elements in it are bigger) - just wait until my Leica 50mm f/0.95 arrives, yep this time i'm not borrowing one, i'm buying one..I have to keep my 50mm lens collection current.

just a question, why are you wearing rubber gloves?

elpolodiablo · 11-01-2010, 06:05 PM

lol I think TOUGEFC is doing a chemical warfare theme on that with the mask and gloves

TOUGEFC · 11-01-2010, 10:43 PM

Lol, thanks for the tip Digitalis, looking foward to seeing the lecia lens

Why the gloves? epoldiablo is sort of on the money, im doing some themed shots for a personal project for fun (and will be doing some more). See my blog or flickr for other themed shots of this kind

Funny that you mention it, the second one is going to be sold as postcard with other photos from the photo club.

Brand new, cost me $369 after using b&h gift voucher

gtl · 11-03-2010, 02:18 AM

Strange, wasn't B&H out of FA limiteds that were made in Japan?

deadwolfbones · 11-03-2010, 07:16 AM

Pretty sure that only applies to the 31 and 77.
