Thanks Sue. I hope you're not affected by the bushfires, I was in Sydney from Christmas through New Years and it was really bad.

Thank you! I like them too, I got sick after taking the night shots of the cathedral because of the extreme temperature, but I was very happy with the results and it was worth it :D

Thank you :biggrin:

Thank you! It's currently my favourite lens :biggrin:

Just some photos I took during my travels last year.

Thanks for the info. I feel a bit deflated, I was looking forward to upgrading my camera. I guess I'll wait and see what they release in the future.

I'm starting to use the 18mm more. I've been hearing somewhere that because if the new OVF magnification, you can't really use the OVF framelines with the 18mm and 16mm as well as narrower end of the lens line up. Is this true? or are these people pulling my leg? I haven't had the chance to...

I'm trying to resist the urge to pick one up. But looking at the Dura-silver, I might give in to temptation.

I really love my city.

Just some random shots with the new lens

I have gone through this dilemma in the past, I enjoy shooting with primes immensely but I cannot deny the convenience of using a zoom. I have had many a sleepless night debating this with myself, especially when the Xpro 2 came out the and the price of Xpro1 has gone down. Should I get a zoom...

I've always shot with a 50 as it comes so naturally to me, I just frame the image I saw and press the shutter. Nowadays though I'm leaning towards a wider FOV, first moving to a 24 which is a lot coming from a 50 and now I'm starting to settle with a 28. I guess I am just starting to see things...

There's just something about classic cars that make you stare at them for hours.

I agree with the previous statements. Some of my worst shots are my favourites, and some people really liked some of the shots I have nearly binned. I'll also expand on what Biro mentioned that art is subjective and catering to your customer's needs. A Picasso painting can cost millions of...

I’ve spent a good part of my life in Japan, the gear you’ll need will vary with what you want to shoot and where are you shooting and I’d apply this twice for Tokyo. In general I would consider Tokyo a crowded city (really crowded but not in a bad way), but there also some places that are...

Not sure what it is, but I really like the colours in this set, It has a particular soft neon light 80’s era / blade runner vibe into it, and while it’s not your face, it’s quite vivid. As for the b+w, I’m a big fan of all things low light b+w :D

Excellent images, especially from a place with bad lighting.

Great shots, Beautifully done!

December was quite a shock for me. I was travelling around China for a bit where the temperature was ranging between -10 to -28 degrees (14 to -18 F), and when I flew back the temperature was 36 degrees (96 F).

I heard there was a 49 degree day in parts of W.A. around Christmas time till boxing day, did it actually get to that?

Try to stay cool Sue, I heard cooler conditions are on the way. I copped 47 degrees in Bookham a day after boxing day, travelling from Sydney back to Melbourne.

Cheers buddy, it means a lot.

Arrived in the mail today :cloud-9-039:

Thanks Tony, it was hard at first, but you get used to it after awhile. Nowadays it's more annoying than debilitating, on the upside I get to wear an eyepatch even if it isn't Halloween.

Cheers buddy, I'll try to shoot more this year.

Thanks Bill Going blind on my left eye, thank goodness I have a spare :thumbup:

Been out of the game for awhile due to partially losing my vision. Some photos I've taken while going through my bucket list.

Nicely done. Quite an intersting character study.

Thank you kindly.

Currently it's 5 degrees, and it's supposed to be a warm night

Winter's in full swing and I checked out the Firelight festival by the Docklands in the Melbourne CBD. Its so hard not having a PC, even something as simple as uploading a sharing photos becomes so long winded. I can't wait to get a replacement.

I actually forgot my brain. I was planning to shoot a cultural festival, I was pretty excited and was playing with my camera the night before on my bed. I woke up late the next day, and in a state of panic I just grabbed my camera bag before rushing out the door. Arrived at the venue and...

needs money for a PC.

Pretty much hit the nail on the head. It's been years, and I am still in love with mine. I love it for all it's innovations and limitations alike.

The tone and contrast brings back a feeling of nostalgia.

I had a look, and I wanna try that as well!

I was an avid film shooter back in the day with photography being a family hobby. I ended up in hiatus for a decade or so. I was lounging around SeriousCompacts for awhile, just trying to keep up-to-date with the world of photography. I ended up joining TalkNex in 2011 when I bought a NEX-5, my...

That's sad, she had good photos.

Hi and welcome. You're in good company :thumbup:

All of the shots work for me on differing levels, It’s a nice character study. I see shots 1 and 2 as more relaxed and collected in reflection. I’ve seen these style of character study shots used in weekend mags about something relaxed and leisurely. These reminds me of the lifestyle section...

Nice shots, looks like a fun day.

Definitely interesting, reminds me of early daguerreotype or calotype photos.

Hostile acquisition sounds like it, or Fuji has now a more of a controlling interest in the merger. Just a theory.....Xerox was one of the more dominant photo imaging companies back in the early nineties while Fuji on the otherhand were struggling due to the transition of photography from film...

Very nice. I've always wanted to go there.

A bit odd, I'm sure their merger has been done years ago, having worked for Fuji Xerox myself as a technician in the past :hmmm:

Happy birthday, many happy returns

To be fair though, the term "street" nowadays has been reduced to just shoving a camera into people's faces or taking photos of people's backs. However if you look at the works of Bresson who pretty much invented the genre, a lot of his shots play on the juxtaposition of his subjects, a play on...

I agree, those shots are really good. The way he did his post process is also top notch.
