Another unusual one from me today - Warwick Folk Festival. Spotted a banjo player lounging about outside a wine bar tent. Nikon D7000, Nikon 55-300mm IS, ISO2000, 1/5s handheld !

Macro lens is is with Sigma Japan, therefore I had to use my telephoto during yesterdays trip:

a small crop was applied.



Landscape better?


or portrait

F4+1 stop =f5.6 = AF works

my sigma still hunts and loses focus on the D7100 just not as bad on the D3200, borrowed a tc17e and the focus speed was nearly as good as without a tc on. So definitely the issue here is using siogma tc on a nikon lens. So i now have a tc14e coming thru the post soon. When I was in the bird hide on Saturday everyone could hear my lens constantly focusing until MF was enabled.

Another one from Saturday at 440mm.

Hmm, not sure what we're meant to be looking at there Jetfire; did you post the right pic?


computerman: Your processing needs work, everything looks very 'flat' and dull. Technically fine shots but the lack of 'pop' makes them very bland.

they havent been processed, barely started reading me books on photoshop. Will try to accomplish a few pages over the weekend. I got my my tc14e today af is now 2-3 times quicker than the sigma tc.

Can you please stop posting such large files? Photo threads are heavy enough as it is - it's not easy to view such big pictures anyway - when was the last time you saw a 6000x4000 monitor? Host them somewhere and put a smaller version (~800 vert pixels is a good starting point) on the forum with a link to the larger one.

The forum software will resize the viewing (but not the underlying photo) automatically anyway, based on a readers window size, so anything big is just wasted bandwidth and page load time.

Ive removed two very oversized images, can you please resize to 1024 wide before posting in future ?

Ta very much.
