Wow - I think those look pretty good. I guess I'll have to give The Darkroom a try. I used to home process color with a C-41 kit and had some decent results but the chemicals don't last and the temperature maintenance can be a pain. I will still do B&W myself (much simpler) but I'll give my color film to The Darkroom...

Good advice! I'll do some more testing when I get the chance. It was about 35 degrees that day with a wind chill in the middle 20's so I didn't take much time with my shots...BRRRRR!!! Also, the Fotodiox adaptor doesn't have any f-stop markings so I kinda guess what the aperture opening is...

Thanks Rick! Yep, I found the Focus Peaking after I shot those pictures and I think I will leave it on all the time too! I have a Maxxum 9xi and a Maxxum 9000 that still get "exercised" from time to time and a Sony A300 that can use the lenses too. With my acquisition of the "Q" I'm finding that the rest of my cameras are being ignored! :o

I just received my Fotodiox AF-P/Q for Minolta A mount lenses. The first lens that I tried out was one of my Minolta Maxum AF 50mm f1.7 (22). I believe that works out to about a 275mm. Yes, focusing is a challenge!

Sitting at my desk goofing with the Extract Color Digital Filter. Images are straight out of the camera, no PP except for scaling the pics to 800x600

Here are some random shots from my new (to me) original Q. Had a few minutes so I ran around grabbing some shots. All pictures were taken with the 02 zoom. Bear with me as I'm still getting used to the camera!

Hopefully I will get better as I learn the Q system. My goodness...there is just so many variables available with the Q! It was about 35 degrees outside with a windchill in the mid-20's - brrrrrrrrrrr!

Thanks for the welcome TER-OR! I can see how you could accidentally do a lot of things with the Q. I am constantly amazed at all the different settings that are available with this little gem!

Thanks for the tip monochrome! You needn't worry. The first time I let someone look at it, I immediately felt separation anxiety and found myself grabbing it back! :eek::lol:
