Macro is a good idea, Compacts can perform very well in this area, and for those on SLR's simply reversing a standard zoom lens can produce fantastic results without the need for tubes or special lenses
do these compacts produce sharp images using macro?
it would give me the excuse to buy the sigma 50mm macro i was after.... hmmnnn
but there arent many bugs around this time of year which are always a good macro target.
a christmas one would be fun, maybe for mid december tho?
what about some street photography? ive never done it and would like to have a go, anyone could try it and it would get us out and wondering (and maybe arrested too) in the cold.
just an idea
Very. As long as you're within the minimum focus distance, most compact have very capable macro modes. This was just a random snapshot with my compact...Originally Posted by noahhowes
The f 2.8 DG Macro? If so, I recently purchased this lens (D70) and am very pleased with it. Focus is a little slow and noisy (although faster if you turn the limiter on) and the lens extends a fair bit at 1:1 ratio, but it's a pin sharp lens, even wide open ~ and is very versatile. Unless I know i'll be wanting zoom, I often just go out shooting everything with it.
that what i wanted to hearmight have to get one. local shop offered me £100 for 2 old canon fit lenses (19-35 and 35-300) so that makes it only £80, hmmmnnn very tempting.
Very impressed with the build quality, too...
I'd rather like the Sigma 18-200, it has huge appeal ¬_¬
In what way was the lovely no 1 entry photo shopped?

stitched i imagine, or cropped. One or the other, then after that looks like fairly 'standard' stuff like levels, curves etc.

I really like 1, but the jutty-out bit of sand seems very dark? :s
5 is just the mutts nuts, and gets my vote.
That is a reef (of rock), and when the conditions are right you can find a decent little wave there, though caution is needed. Heres another shot but from a bit further back in the summerOriginally Posted by Alex
Looks like a rock outcrop to me, but I could be wrong...

looks like it would make for a nice peeling right hander
where is it? (if you dont mind)
Gyllyngvase beach, Falmouth.
'Twas stitched, sky darkened, and colour levels changed (separately for the sky and for the ground - basically a kind of redder "sunset filter"). Couldn't really remember whether the rock was a rock or not!
Mmhm, Cornwall is for the win Beach wise.
