Hi Ark19,

I agree with Max 2.8, they would have to be some of the best I have seen
Sharp and very nice colour

I like the takes also (subject matter ?)

[Pablo]

Hi teerex,

I guess we are here now

I like pic's 1 and 4 especially the trees in 4

With pic 1, I tried a channel swap to see how it would look.
Nice blue in the sky but it also gave me similar blue to the buildings.

Cheers

Yes, I got that too when I did a channel swap. That's why I left it without swap.

ark19 - flare caused by not having lens hood on and sun was in front for some shots.

Hi Ark, nice pic, I like the last one. Would have high impact if taken with a wider lens. I am starting to dream of a 77mm R72 or get a gelatin for my FE. Still cannot make decision

very bright sun and blue skies this morning

but here we are stuck in office

No lah, been sleeping most of the day, so just go out for a walk and shoot. That's y no tripod. If brought tripod, maybe will kana mc for the week liaoz...

Hi Max, Pablo and Dennis, thanks
Dennis, order one more ELP lor

[Dennis]

Have thought about it but will 2 ELP work ??.
1 ELP does not seems to do the trick.
I don't like the colour of the trees with the ELP.
Maybe should just pain pain but 1 time.

Hmm, I think I'd resized the tiff.
Nevermind, tonight will process to 600x400.
Which one preferred? 100% crop or resize photos to 600x400?

[Dennis]

I wanted to see the before and after processing ones.

how to process huh? still thinking should i get a 2nd piece or not

IMO, R72 still gives the best desired results. And also easier to PP.
But, all previous ELP tests were done on overcast days.
So not conclusive yet. I'll wait for my ELP to be ready than can test it during a bright and sunny day.

Even with R72, an overcast day and a sunny day will provide different results...

[quekky]

oic. pray this sun will be a very sunny day
