    Generative landscape art – a (horror) vision of the future of photography?

    I completely agree with this point and I'd add that I believe the reason film photography will still be going on years from now is because individuals who grow up on digital strive for something where the process of taking the photograph is as rewarding or even more rewarding than processing of...

    Fun with 4/3rds cameras/ Image Thread

    Yes, but I am not sure for how much longer. I am near to completing a project photographed entirely on Fuji equipment. I feel I owe to the client to complete it using the same camera/lenses. Once that is complete I am not so sure. In fact, while I am completing it I will test out the 8-25 along...

    Generative landscape art – a (horror) vision of the future of photography?

    An interesting thread. I agree that it would be completely unsatisfying to be an AI armchair landscape photography creator. Back in the real world, a lot of what I do is urban landscapes and architecture. The biggest bane of my life is to find cars, 'street furniture' or moveable objects, for...

    Fun with 4/3rds cameras/ Image Thread

    First shots with a Oly 8-25f4. Not sure yet what I think of this lens, although the zoom range is very convenient both the range and framing. Sharpness is very good at centre and more than acceptable at the edges (and compares well with all the UWAs I've owned - although like them a bit soft)...

    Fun with 4/3rds cameras/ Image Thread

    When I returned to m43rds after a 5 year sojourn with Fuji, I knew that at some point I would crack and acquire a Pana Leica Marco Elmarit 45mm f2.8, for what is the third time in my life. What a super, super lens. Apart from what seem to me are authentic Leica colours and contrast (based on my...

    Fun with 4/3rds cameras/ Image Thread

    Greylag Geese. Although not my favourite type of bird I am nevertheless once again very pleased with the AF and rendering by the OM-1 and ED300f4. I passed this through DxOPureRAW3 (At present I am boycotting v4 as I paid for my upgrade to v3 just three days shy of the free upgrade period and...

    Fun with the Fuji X ___!

    Yes, they are eye-catching. Another thing which struck me was the size of the cockpit. It is very roomy. This was the world's first ever commercial jet powered airliner. Something that Frank Whittle, the inventor of the jet engine, dreamed would be possible even when he was initially developing...

    Fun with 4/3rds cameras/ Image Thread

    I decided to commit further to the Olympus system and I purchased the lowest cost second hand one from MBP here in the UK and am quite delighted with what I received. Looks not far from new, glass is clean with no marks and it focusses fine. The only thing which is not fine is the weather in the...

    Ricoh GR III

    Nice photo. The Ricoh GRIII is a 'small' APS-C camera but not a 'small sensor' camera. There is a thread which celebrates its virtues in the 'Other Cameras section.

    Fun with 4/3rds cameras/ Image Thread

    I keep expecting the 'buyers remorse' to kick in after selling off my Fuji-based birding kit to go back to m43rds and specifically Olympus but after a month of shooting I remain absolutely delighted. Yes, the AF could be slightly improved but in general subject detection, stickiness once...

    Fun with 4/3rds cameras/ Image Thread

    Got me a TC1.4x (cheap grey import) to add to my 100-400. With some post processing jiggery-pokery it is possible to get good results. Olympus OM-1, 100-400, iso10000, 560mm, f11, 1/4000

    That is really convincingly 'film-like' and a beautiful capture.
