Title: Fun with Compact camera images (lets start a new thread)
Post by: Paul2660 on September 21, 2016, 11:59:27 am
I couldn't find a thread for a images sharing post here, but if there is one, I will merge to it.

To all compact camera shooters, lets share some shots.  Lots of great stuff out there to view.

This is from the X-T2, early morning light.  Hard to catch this shot and the X-T2 did it very well.  Very pleased with tonal range especially shadows in foreground.  3 part bracket, LR HDR, etc.

E-M1, 5000ISO, 1/125 420mm (FF-eqv), handheld.  Couldn't have hand-held that kind of focal length, speed, nor lens in this scenario with an SLR!

Deming Glacier last Friday, low res version. Handheld E-M1 with 12-40 Pro zoom, IS on. Multiple shots merged in PS, each was 12mm, 1/250 sec, f/5.6, ISO 200.
Fun indeed! I met someone on the way up carrying two 60Ds, two tripods, a 6' time lapse rail and motor, and overnight gear, all weighing 65 lbs. I hope he was having fun.

Very nice.  My days of carrying the heavy stuff up the trail are over.

Hi Paul,

Beautiful spot.
Did you intentionally increase the vibrance/saturation ?
At least on my NEC PA it seems a little hot.

Hi

It's not in the image, but trying to keep saturation levels even across different platforms is difficult at least for me.  I do like saturation in my work, but on my screens it's within limits.  I use NEC also.

Looks stunning to me on NEC PA271 calibrated with Spectraview!  Doesn't look too hot to me.

Sure you could.  Do it all the time with a 7DMKII + 100-400 IS II + quiet shutter at 400mm.  Unless there is something special with your scenario.  Great shot BTW!  The EM-1 + 300mm is a fantastic combo.

In keeping with my chipmunk theme here's another from this afternoon at my favorite local park. I've thrown in a chickadee too for good measure. They're very human tolerant, and will eat seed out of your hand. Both taken with the Pana/Leica 100–400mm.

I've long been taken with the rich colors of Fuji Velvia—for appropriate subjects, of course—and I think the color profile bundled with Lightroom provides a fairly good simulation.  Attached: two images from a walk this morning in the Great Falls National Park (Potomac, Maryland).  X-T1 with Fuji 55-200mm.

just out of curiosity. why are you posting images that have "copyright" typography splurged all over them. this may be another thread, but surely it'd be better not to post it you are so worried?
