Hiya Folks! I must say this thread is the most supportive and pleasant place to share photos that I've seen on the interwebs!!

I promise to dig up some more NEX pics and post ASAP.

In the meantime, thank you everyone for keeping it going!!!

It's what keeps me coming back to Pentaxforums. We always enjoy seeing your photos here.

Thanks, you are so kind.



I tend to frame a composition in my mind, long before I lift the camera. One of the reasons I get long battery life is I normally leave the camera turned off until I want to take a picture.







It's one of the reasons I hate zooms and will never use them. Zooms destroy my ability to frame a photo in my head and they mess with my brain.

On the rare times I do shoot with a zoom these days I try to always think of it as a collection of primes then a "zoom". It helps me be less lazy and think about how I want to capture a subject in space.

Jim, old buddy! What are you doing hanging around over here at PF? I thought I was the only Talkemount renegade.

Tried processing some ARWs in Lightroom - in-camera JPEG engine really is pretty weak I think.

Many thanks!

Took a cheapo Olympus Zuiko 28mm f/3.5 out for a spin today. Absolutely superb at f/8-11:

I'll have to sign up at talkemount, sounds like my kind of place.

Not at all! Really liked the second of this set but I'm limited to my phone ATM so maybe it just works better small. Still nice results from a cheap and cheerful lens!

[TonyTurley]

Very nice, Rob. Great light and compositions.

A few street shots with the 5n, great for this sort of thing for sure!











I use three lenses on it via the Speedbooster - Leica Elmarit-R 28 (last version), Kern-Macro-Switar 50/1.9 and Leica APO-Summicron-R 90mm ASPH.

Sorry, couldn't resist taking another photo of woman on mobile phone:


She is so absorbed it's easy to take photos of her:

Even as cold and windy as it is, the birdies love the sunshine. The last 4 are not crops; I was able to zoom in very close because I was only a little over a meter from the feeder. NEX-5R + Vivitar (Kiron) 75-205 f3.8.
