you could also try using "Lens Blur" instead of Gaussian Blur, I think it could be nicer that way

nah he is using an adapter. supposed to work good too.
around 30 bucks on amazon
its just not an auto anything adapter, so you do it all manually, which is cool.
Marin said you dont really loose any f-stop's either unlike the canon fd to ef adapter where you lose some fstop plus its zoomed in because it creates a larger gap between the sensor and the lens
plus most of the fd to ef lens adapters have crappy glass which just ruins the picture.

marin says his works pretty good and by the looks of the pictures i would say so.

fs lenses and the adapter are dirt cheap so its actually not going to break the bank to play around with a few adatpers and lenses to find maybe one or two that are worth the money spent.

the shot of the airplane is very nice! Is that a A330? Don't seem like a Boeing for some reason...

It's got the really wide under belly under the wing, meaning it's an A3xx, the engines aren't big enough to be A321, or A320, so you are correct it is an A330 :)

But I do agree, it's very nice :)

I found this from the EAA Airventure 2009 a few months back but I think it's a really nice picture and how it shows the massive size of the C5 about a mile away, with an old Piper about 100 feet away

That's a nice shot indeed, I would like to say C-17, but for some reason the tail is throwing me off.

The dreaded brick wall. The easiest test for barrel-distortion/pin-cushioning. :p: Looks like pin-cushion, or that brickwork is very unlevel. :D

It could be that the brink is very unlevel, it was taken in St Paul, MN...that town is Minneapolis' retarded step-brother and they don't know how to do anything correctly :D

It's a different world from where I am. Here's a drink I had yesterday, doesn't really seem fair.

Nice shots ANP !!! and inCore. Yes, it is a different world - makes me grateful for what I have.

Here's a shot I liked of the current build I'm working on. This was taken at 3200 ISO with the Canon 5D Mark II:

Thanks ... that one was at f/13 with the Canon EF 50mm 1.4 lens. I find it to be a very sharp lens.
