  • Hard News: Notes in My Pocket,

    Anyway, this was a Friday post, so as no one's gone there yet...

    Ben Canales does interesting stuff exploiting the higher iso settings of newer DSLRs

    Thanks Joe. His Time lapse Demo Reel is un.be.lievable!

    Of course, there is a website dedicated to what people carry in their pockets.

    That's kind of cool, but I'd be interested to know how many here have a switch blade as a standard pocket item. Knives abound.

    I don't have a Manfrotto. I'm jealous now.

    Night all, and keep the photos coming.

    PS. Sorry for causing such technical angst Lilith.

    Have you been using the ‘live view’ function with your 60D Jac?

    Yes. After our afternoon lesson, I have used it for manual focusing a lot more. Thanks for the tip.

    Sadly, all my night shots are on my other computer which is not internet-capable just now, so I’ll have to admire everyone else’s.

    Any chance of dumping them on a memory stick, or something? Would be lovely if you could contribute some shots too. ;-)

    Snail Moon.

    Of course, you can have a bit of fun without a tripod too. ;-)

    Here's another from the same night.

    Tripod for the win!

    Thanks Jos. We had a lot of fun. Might go on another safari, once the weather bomb passes.

    Opera House, Sydney

    This one from a boat. Manly just beat the Warriors in the grand final. But we don't need to mention that.

    Lovin' all the shots. David those trees are spooky, and great.

    Singapore, 2011. Marina Bay Sands.

    Stop the lens down to f16 or f22 if possible, for maximum sharpness and the greatest depth of field.

    He's right you know. Although the more observant amongst you will note my settings aren't quite as prescribed. On the night I let the camera make decisions for me, and being limited to 30sec maximum exposures, it dropped the f/ settings, when I should have increased the ASA.

    Still, I'm also partial to a little blur, so I'll say I meant to do it. ;-)
