coldel Posted December 20, 2016 Posted December 20, 2016 Shot two there Chirag is a case of 'right, stand there, and do not move a muscle!' Great photos. Inspired me to look back, I havent taken any for ages. Sold my Canon SLR (one of the old 350Ds!) and bought a mirrorless Samsung. 1 Quote
Tricky-Ricky Posted December 20, 2016 Posted December 20, 2016 Again nice pics Chirag, starting to seriously make me think about selling my DSLR. Quote
chirag1988 Posted December 20, 2016 Posted December 20, 2016 Again nice pics Chirag, starting to seriously make me think about selling my DSLR. Thanks mate but why is it making you think of selling up instead of getting it back out? Quote

Thanks mate but why is it making you think of selling up instead of getting it back out? Just seems like the new mirror-less cameras do a far better job, and are more portable......but then i also think you have a good eye and talent, mind you i think i have become over critical of the pics i take as well, and so get put off .

One thing I learned from my cousin who does it semi-professionally, is that the picture is what you perceive it to be. There is no real right or wrong, and yes people can criticise, and you can be critical of yourself, but at the end of the day it's what you want to see You could sell up your DSLR and pick up a mirrorless for a decent price and then crack on Quote

I really dislike electronic viewfinders on m/less cameras or composing pics on the back screen, especially on a sunny day, when I struggle to see any of the composition. Also with the back screen on a lot, its eats up batteries. Much prefer the optical viewfinder on the dslr. Also find there is a lag on the evf doing panning shots, waiting for the picture to catch up. Just my personal experience and opinion, others will disagree! Quote
gangzoom Posted December 23, 2016 Posted December 23, 2016 ^Have you used the latest generation of cameras from Sony/Panasonic/Olympus?? I struggle to fault the EVF on my EM 5 II. Getting tempted now by the EM 1 II as the tracking AF system in that thing looks immense, but thanks to to weak £ £2k asking price is just crazy money. Quote

Getting tempted now by the EM 1 II as the tracking AF system in that thing looks immense, but thanks to to weak £ £2k asking price is just crazy money. Yes, had a go on a friends em 5 ii but couldn't get on with the evf. I did consider going m/less before I upgraded, but as I mostly do landscape, the big Nikon suits me best as I do love the ovf. However, I was thinking of trading in my quirky Merrill dp1 for a Sony rx100 variant for everyday/take anywhere use, so I'm not totally averse to them. Have you considered a used em 1 ii? mind you I don't suppose there are too many used for sale at the mo. I bought used as I wasn't prepared to pay £2.5k for a new body. Quote
gangzoom Posted December 24, 2016 Posted December 24, 2016 ^Fair enough if you tried the latest EVF and still don't like them. I always buy second hand gear, my EM5, lens, even carrier bag is preowned Love to get an EM 1 II or even a telephoto lens for the EM5 but with a 8 months old baby, new car due to arrive (with invoice needing to be paid), about to move house, the last thing I have time or money to spend on is camera gear At least the camera on phones these days are pretty awesome 2 Quote

chirag1988 Posted December 27, 2016 Posted December 27, 2016 A couple of shots I took this morning at the local park in time for the sunrise IMG_0893.jpg by Chirag Panchal, on Flickr IMG_0883.jpg by Chirag Panchal, on Flickr Quote
350zedd Posted December 28, 2016 Posted December 28, 2016 ^^ Fair play Chirag for getting up with the sun, even though its as late as 8am. I struggle badly getting out of bed at the mo and am determined to change my routine. After all its the easiest time of the year to get a sunrise shot!! Must get to bed earlier.. dammit! 1 Quote

Fodder Posted December 29, 2016 Posted December 29, 2016 I got a sunrise shot this morning from my GoPro while out for a ride.... I may go again tomorrow but take my dslr if it's clear like today. 2 Quote

Fodder Posted December 29, 2016 Posted December 29, 2016 Ha ha that was at 8.30 this morning, late for me. That was a grab from a 1080/30 super view video so not the best quality but gives an idea how beautiful that sunrise was. I'm not far from Airbus Broughton where that was taken and was hoping for the beluga to be landing. No he didn't bring me the 10 - 20 the selfish so and so but I think I'm going to treat myself early in the new year. 1 Quote
Fodder Posted January 2, 2017 Posted January 2, 2017 No he didn't bring me the 10 - 20 the selfish so and so but I think I'm going to treat myself early in the new year. Well I ordered the lens last night after a couple of beers, should arrive tomorrow and hopefully get out this weekend with it. Quote

I hope that you will enjoy using it as much as I did, it was my favourite lens as I mentioned. Look forward to seeing some shots up here when you get chance. Happy wideangle-ing! 1 Quote
chirag1988 Posted January 2, 2017 Posted January 2, 2017 Went to Paris for New Years and got a few shots whilst out there. Took my wide angle 10-24mm and borrowed my cousin's 70-200mm f/2.8 f/11, 10mm, 1/60sec, ISO400 IMG_0973.jpg by Chirag Panchal, on Flickr f/2.8, 75mm, 1/400sec, ISO200 IMG_1026.jpg by Chirag Panchal, on Flickr 1 Quote
