@ ANP !!!
that last shot of the lightning is amazing. You got a hi res of that one? :)
in that case you're supposed to take the cap push it in backwards and pull out the plastic. That's how the marble comes out...Quote:

The grip is actually better then I expected. Good weight, sort of reminds me of an old 35mm pentax my dad owned when I was a kid. It's actually confortable with the extra lens hood and a couple diopters attached.
The 16.6mm lens is a bit weird to get used to. Auto focus is nearly useless for anything but still shots, and it's 100% blind in low light. The LCD quality is far from great. Metering modes seem accurate, white balance not so much.
As far as image quality, I don't think I seen all the potential out of it yet. I didn't take that many shots, most of them in very poor light, I still need to do some more testing with proper lights and outdoors. But overall I have to say that I am impressed with the detail it can produce even with such low lights. The only problems I noticed so far was a bit of chromatic aberration and some flaring in a few pics.
Well that and..maybe I am nuts, but I see a lot of noise reduction even at low ISO. I am not even sure if I should be calling it noise reduction or not, but blurry/out of focus areas sometimes seem to have lots of it. :shrug:
But yeah, I am having a good time with it. If all goes well, tomorrow I will be picking up the halogen lights that I found last week and will be able to do some better tests.

I picked up a nice kit of halogen lamps today. 800W, can't keep them too close to the camera for more then a couple minutes or the camera (specially the delrin adapter) start to get really hot. :eek: :p:

Goreg, why were all the pictures for your exam macros?
Love your latest one ANP, great colors! Watermark ruins it though, IMO...
Great shot, ANP. I like the currency shots, from both Goreg and hoax.
@smee ... good detail, and nice use of the diagonal lines. Perhaps a little too much of the out of focus area in the bottom right - that's where my attention went first. Do you have any with just the "players?"

well partly because I had just got my macro lens at the time, partly because I really like macro shots, and partly because my theme was things we take for granted.Quote:

Probably one of those billions of wires not plugged back in quite right. So I get to take it apart again :p:Quote:
