Just had it on auto most of the time, although I have had a play with shutter speed a bit for some of them. Really happy with it overall though

[mark_airey]

Some awesome photo's there, love the play with the depth of field too

nice work mate, i see your enjoying the new toy!

[Dan!]

Quick favour from everybody. I took some photos of my stepmums cats earlier with the intention of getting one of the photos printed out in A3 and framed for her, as a birthday present. I took like 30 photos but heres the shortlist, which one do you think is best?

[Dan!]

Theyre not my pussies, their my stepmothers. Il let her know what you think though x

[burnmw]

Could you not choose multiple shots and have them "artily" arranged?

[Dum-Dum]

1, 3 or 5 Dan!

Without knowing the animals personalitys its hard to pick

[ginge191]

4 for me, detail of the hair and glow from the cats eye its fan-bloody-tastic!

[mark_airey]

3 or 5 get my vote

[TheGateKeeper]

My dad got a new camera just before XMAS, Canon 600d. So we have both been out and playing with the settings. I am enjoying it just as much as he is

The one of my cousin and the dog are mine. The tree is my dads

[Fozzy]

Well got a very nice present this christmas and been trying to learn how to use it. They aren't perfect but it was only a test for HDR.

[mark_airey]

OK I now have a new camera, I have been playing and this thread needs a revival............



















More here --> http://www.flickr.com/photos/markairey/ for anyone who cares
Enjoy..........

[Dan!]

YES Mark 8-) Saw a few of them on flickr the other day, really good stuff man

[mark_airey]

Cheers Dan glad you like them!

Do you like the start trails in my last one?? thats 15 mins of my life right there!! hock: Also, IMO it needs more stars but I was having cloud related issues

[Dan!]

Ah yeah I can see them now, my screen is mega dusty though so I didnt notice them before Deffo needs more stars Did you just take loads of 30sec exposures and merge them together or does your camera have a 15min shutter speed? :think:

Remote shutter with lock FTW

ISO100, F9.5, 15(ish) mins exposure (which was then followed by 15 mins of noise reduction which makes me sad ) Just looked, it was 901 seconds exposure

[Dan!]

Hmm, im going to have to look into that :think: so you just stand there next to your camera with your finger on the remote shutter for 15 mins, or is there an on/off slider which you just slide to 'on' and it opens the shutter for aslong as its in the on position? Confuzzled a little bit, but I like the sound of it

Camera in manual and shutter set to "bulb", it locks on, otherwise the orb would have been hard

Just because i'm nice and think I can remember what camera you have - http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Remote-Shutter...519b2c802a

Awesome. Bought, paid for, on its way Love you :romance-inlove:

[Toms306]

I only take pics of the cars.....and only have a camera phone, but these are still pretty cool imo. BTW, does anyone else use a HTC with a 5mp camera, not sure if its set up wrong but I can't seem to take a decent pic with it!







F*cking love this next one!



And these last two are from the HTC with 3 more megapixels!





Tried tidying it up...failed.

[mark_airey]

@ Tom, you "can't take a decent pic with it" because it is a phone camera with a tiny little lens and sensor! what do you expect! having said that the last lot I posted (18th December) were all off my phone so maybe its just you

Awesome. Bought, paid for, on its way Love you :romance-inlove:

Enjoy , just don't trash the sensor in your camera by using the wrong settings like high iso or wide open aperture on silly long exposures

[Toms306]

Yeah I know they're not gonna be great, but the one of the angel eye, and the one near the customs boat were both taken with a crappy old samsung with a 2MP camera iirc....so surely the brand new 5MP one should be a bit better than those lol. :blink:

[mark_airey]

I would put it down to user error myself

[Toms306]

Haha, you're probably right.

345 for dan!

Nooooo......lol! the noise reduction software onboard is usually not great! and just takes up time, batteries and all that. Fantastic stuff though! what type of pyromaniac sparklers were you using?

Just a wee warning to all you lot experimenting with long exposures, its better when its cold out. If it's a hot night and you take an exposure for 15min + lengths, it the heat generated by the camera can damage the sensor if your taking lots of shots. Just a word of advice
