Light conditions were horrible. Dark shade with bright sunlight in the background. Also these were all hand held so the f/4 lens demanded slow shutter speeds. I needed a tripod here but it was 8 miles away!! LOL _________________ Big Dawg |

Sounds like you think the camera and lens are in the wrong hands!! LOL
These are the very first photos I not only shot with the 645 but also the first negatives I tried to scan with my Epson scanner.
With time and a tripod they will improve.
They are good enough to make me WANT to improve and not only keep the 645 but use it more often.
Now if I can get off these 7 day 12 hour work weeks I'll be able to shoot more! _________________ Big Dawg |

Thank you my friend. I'm over a year late showing you these. My fault and I do apologize for being so late with them. I scanned them in and then promptly moved on to other things. I was not completely happy with both the way I shot them and the way I scanned them so I really was not going to post them. Laurence pushed me over the edge so I had to!!

Each to his own with these. Some like them original (I'm one of those) and others see a potential to improve on the original design. _________________ Big Dawg |

Laurence it was 96 degrees with 81 percent humidity. I was sweating enough to drench my cloths. Made the 645 slippery. I just need to shoot it more than I have and use a tripod to get the sharpness better. Really liked your photos on the other thread. Very nice water fall pic. _________________ Big Dawg |
