Strange storm here in southern NH. Little snow late day yesterday, then rain, then about 6 snowed like
crazy, about 3" per hour with big wet sticky flakes. Plowed from 9:00 to midnight.
Shoveled decks this am, took a few pictures.
All with 645D and 80-160 lens
Hanging planter

Sun through the trees
The shoveling was not fun but the scenery was striking.

I think this is one of the best photographs you have posted. I like all to the landscapes and broad vistas but this is much more intimate, almost haunting.
Stunning photo in my humble opinion.

Wei-Hao,
Thank you for your response, I will look into your suggestions. Shame there is no T adapter for 645D. Sounds like some machining or a creative solution is in order.

texandrews,
Will find out in a week or so when we pass papers. If any is usable, it will find its way into new house or new shop.

Thank you Dadipentak. The 35mm is not just for landscapes, works well for products. Fill the frame 3 to 4 feet away and it is very sharp.

I have too many hobbies and not enough time to pursue them. I am a lifelong woodworker among other things and like to turn wooden bowls.
I turned this Locust bowl back in January and have not had a chance to photograph it, Rainy slow work day so time has come.
Pentax 645d, 35mm mostly f8 and 30th second on tripod with two side lights.

I am done. I have stated my opinion, though there are many others. As I said, I don't care where Vieri posts his images. If this discussion had been started before images were posted
and intent to do as you choose was not reiterated so many times, I might have a different view. As it is, this can be left to moderators to make their decision.

Not an insult Vieri. Just not sure why your images need a seperate thread. We can comment, discuss and appreciate photos in post your medium format photos thread as is done now.
I do not see seperate threads from any other members and see some great photos in thread already in place for that purpose. Your photos are stunning as are many others here but
do not see the need to alter the format.
They are all just photographs, some of the best are housewives with their smart phone. With the advent of the digital age, anyone can be a great photographer given the right time and place.
As I said, if you want to post your photos in a seperate thread, that is fine. Personally, I don't see the need for same.
No insults, just stating my opinion. I personally don't care where you post your images. I do think however that your attitude of doing as you choose is not compatible with the intent of this thread.

I am going to say what many others are thinking. Leave site the way it is. If Madshutter wants to have a seperate post for his images, so be it. I personally don't think his images are so special that
they need a seperate post. If he wishes to alienate himself from the rest of the site and members, that is his choice.
Lot of bullshit over one member.

There is a thread " post your medium format photos". There only seems to be one person that has to have an individual post for their photos.
Many opinions have been expressed, mine is to leave it the way it is. If someone wants their own post, so be it. Forum members can
look or not and form their own opinions. There are many fine photographs, not sure why we need categories. Part of the pleasure of viewing is the diversity.

645D is new to me. I think it is going to be a keeper.

Lenticular,
Thank you for your comment. I have the 45 -85 in A series. Will be looking for some FA lenses soon.
Camera depleted my funds for a bit.
Velvian ---------- Post added 10-20-15 at 09:11 AM ---------- Did get a few pictures on Sunday last, windy and cold.
Both with A series 35mm on new to me 6545D, too windy for sharp leaves but colors are still good here.

Long time 645 user, Velvia lover. Just bought a 645D on buy sell from fellow forum member and received it yesterday.
Only had time for a few shots around the house yesterday.
All with A series 120 f4 macro:
Garden gnome
Frogs in bird bath
Leaves on deck
Garden flower
I think I am going to like this camera. Still miss Velvia but this is so much faster.
Now to save some money for FA lenses, they are expensive.
I will be manually focusing my A series lenses for a while.
Thank you to forum member, reasonable deal and nice camera.
Velvian - Keeping my name, may Velvia never die.

Pentax A 645 600mm f5.6 ED ( IF ) Asking Price
2,500.00 USD Item Location
Derry, NH (United States) Item Description
Pentax A 645 600mm f5.6 ED ( IF ) lens for sale. I bought this lens in 2004 on ebay form a collector in Israel. I looked for one for
years to complete my set for Pentax 645. I have every lens mad in the A series for 645. I am considering buying a 645D. I have
used this lens 4 times in 10 years. I hate to sell it but would get more use from 645D and I can choose which of the A series lens
to keep, I may sell some more of them to help fund 645D purchase. The Z is out of my price range at present.
Thank you for your interest

I like the shots from the 645Z. The black and whites are great as are the glacial shots.
The double exposures are well done and a throwback to times past.
Pentax 645 with Velvia and 600mm. I like old graveyards as well.

Jonathon Mac,
The A series lenses only. Got the list and spent 11 years getting all of them. I looked for the 600mm for three years and finally bought it on ebay from Israel. None get enough use but hope to spend more
time shooting soon.
