Toronto Meetup 7?

devs66 · 11-22-2009, 06:55 PM

Had a great day - Nice to meet some old faces and to see some new ones!

Great meeting you all - though sorry I didn't socialise much.
Here is a cropped image - I will have to down size the rest of the image and then upload.

oh! i missed the group shot =(
anyways! It was a pleasure to talk to you all and thanks Dave for showing me around and telling me all those interesting facts.

As for photos.. I've already sent 1/2 of the shots into trash can already. MF is definitely not fun with a weak focus indicator.

I wish I have a K-7..

It was really great meeting everyone, and look forward to doing it again. Hopefully next time, I'll have a little more knowledge of my camera and lenses

Here's my second choice:

Sorry I had to leave so early! I really intended to "shoot while the sun is up, then talk afterwards" and had to leave before the sunset. Not intended to be antisocial...

Here are the two panos I shot while I was there (click the link for the FlashVR version):

And here are some images from my $300 tilt-lens experiment:

Still getting the hang of this thing, but it could be fun beyond the usual "infinite depth-of-field" and "little model world" applications.

Love the first couple Mark, you're certainly creative with that thing.

here are mine, I have not had time/bothered with correcting for distortion and perspective errors so the building images look a bit off.

Although I was in the city there was no way that I could join you guys. Happy that you guys had a great time.
It was quite an experience being surrounded by photographers with Pentax straps instead of those of Nikon/Canon. Just the sight of a squadron of Pentaxians is impressive

Nice to meet some fellow Pentax users, good outing! My contribution of samples

DMBrady · 11-26-2009, 04:30 AM

Here's a few more shots taken that day.

In b/w:

In colour:

and here's one with Panoguy and DEVS: Not the greatest shot I've ever taken, but I got DEVS in it, and he never likes his photo taken.

**Clarkey** · 12-02-2009, 06:25 PM

Thanks all, had a blast, good to meet a fellow bunch of pentaxophiles, great to try different perspectives/lenses. As usual lots going on around here so a bit slow, but here are a couple of samples:

And I goofed this one. Nice and wide though!

AMBIVALENCE · 12-02-2009, 08:43 PM

Okay, since everyone are posting, I should contribute as well!
BTW, I have to say that It's absolutely great to meet you all, yes, it's interesting to be part of the "pentax gang".

Thanks everyone!
Below are the photo I took using P50. I used a roll of long expired Kodak 200, which is one of the worst roll in my stash. To make it presentable, I have PPed.

AMBIVALENCE · 12-02-2009, 08:44 PM

BTW, I'd love to see how my photo would turn out if it gets de-fished. But I dont have any plug-in at all to do it. Anyone can help me do a quick processing?

Pardon my lack of understanding of the terminology, but what's the problem?
