Good Lookin' Gum Trees
By now you must know your way around One Mile Creek as well as I do.
I love these big, beautiful trees like Trump loves his wall, they are my friends.
Like Prince Charles and other romantics, I...

Re: Wood Mouse
What an amazing little mouse icon, and a male one to boot …

Re: The Territorial Imperative
Mark, Keith, Larry, A lucky break. The drama unfolded so quickly that I raised the camera and began shooting at 60mm resulting in the need for an aggressive crop.
Thanks all. *chr

The Territorial Imperative
Being the ignoramus I am, I've yet to ID both the aggressor and the aggressed.
That said, it was interesting to see how the smaller bird was able to defend its territory while his female looked on....

Re: Wangaratta Camera Club Photo Shoot #01/2019
Setting forth at around 7:15pm there was little sun so not much chance of flare. That said, normally I don't use filters so the lens hood serves to protect the lens. As for our library funding, I...

Re: Wangaratta Camera Club Photo Shoot #01/2019
Graham, apologies for missing your post earlier. It is surprising that very few young people join photography clubs. Is it because they mostly use phone cameras to shoot selfies and such to share on...

Re: Photoshop Ai enhanced RAW
I come late to the table on this but for the little it's worth, the strap texture on the left looks slightly sharper … but then maybe not, taking a second look … *erm … if there's a difference it's...

Re: Wangaratta Camera Club Photo Shoot #01/2019
Thanks Mark, FYI, I've added the settings beneath the last two images; I've no idea as to why exif data isn't embedded. As for the "unnatural light" it is what it is; white balance on auto,...

Re: Wangaratta Camera Club Photo Shoot #01/2019
Optically, or politically, Larry? :D Either way, just my bias! *yes
Btw, I missed by a matter of seconds the flare of the sun through the gap between church and belfry - what a nice metaphor that...

Wangaratta Camera Club Photo Shoot #01/2019
It was a balmy summer’s evening yesterday for the second club meeting of the year. We set out from the club room 7:00pm for a walking photo tour of the town.
The exercise was to shoot with a...

Re: My New toy, MMF-3
Thanks Ros and Larry. It was you Larry who advised me well to use the 12-40 pro when I texted you a few hours before the meet, it was the right choice. Only a dozen or so members showed up for the...

Re: My New toy, MMF-3
My local camclub meeting tonight is a walkabout photo tour. We are asked to use a 18-55mm lens (I'm sure that means Canikoners).
I'll use either the 12-40mm F2.8 pro, or the 12-60mm SWD, which is...

Re: M5 Mkii + MMF-3 + SWD = FUN
For bird photography, Yes. Based on the images above, and others taken on yesterday's shoot, that was my conclusion. However, on the previous day I found the 12-60 SWD's performance much better for...

M5 Mkii + MMF-3 + SWD = FUN
Having yesterday taken the 12-60 SWD for a run, today shooting with the 50-200 SWD was fun
Certainly not in the same league as the 40-150mm F2.8 pro, I think the 50-200 SWD will be just for show

Re: My New toy, MMF-3
I'm bet you used it a lot on your iconic walks, Huw. 12-60 is perfect for hiking and bushwalking.

Hobart has the lowest annual rainfall of any capital city in Oz. It has a low humidity climate,(unlike lens moulding FNQ and Brissy! :D)

Re: Losing it!
The SWD 12-60 provides the 12mm gear gap needed only for landscape and architecture, both of which are slow moving targets.
Fast AF is therefore irrelevant. MMF-3 was a prudent solution to busting...
