VPI Posted October 3, 2010 Report Share Posted October 3, 2010 Spent some time down near Wall Street with the 7D this afternoon. I still have a lot to figure out with this thing as it has one billion options but it seems to be a worthy step up from the 50D. I think it will end up being set aside for sports shooting as I really prefer the 5Ds for daily carry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CD44hi Posted October 3, 2010 Report Share Posted October 3, 2010 Longtime Head-Casers may remember me posting this shot in the Slow Forum ages ago. The image is mislabeled, as it's taken from the top of the Empire State Building, not the WTC. This is a great making-of video about the shot: Three comments, 1- This is an amazing pic. What a difference 10 yrs make in the meaning of your explanation. 2-If the Chilean miners were in the pic, they will still be about a 100 ft above these guys! 3-These guys have balls of steel, they are probably debating what's the appropriate light bulb....

VPI Posted October 3, 2010 Report Share Posted October 3, 2010 Went to the Hoboken Arts and Music Festival today for some lunch and snapped some pics of the Guitar Bar All-Stars playing. Not a real band but they were not bad. They even had a Giant playing Saxophone and senior citizen groupies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asr Posted October 4, 2010 Report Share Posted October 4, 2010 Some pics from my trip to Seattle for the Head-Fi meet held there on Saturday. It was my first time in Seattle and I definitely want to go back. This kid's mom was HOT, I actually talked to her for a bit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guzziguy Posted October 4, 2010 Report Share Posted October 4, 2010 Congratulations! You got there on one of the three days a year it doesn't rain. It looks like you had a good time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asr Posted October 4, 2010 Report Share Posted October 4, 2010 Yup sure did, I cased most of the major points in the city. By the time I left it was starting to rain though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salt Peanuts Posted October 4, 2010 Report Share Posted October 4, 2010 Looks like you had a great time, and where's the pic of the kid's mom? Also, you've got spots on your lens or filter (see second and fifth photo). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laxx Posted October 4, 2010 Report Share Posted October 4, 2010 Took this shot the other day as it was finally a clear night sky after all the rain we've had in NYC. This was on my room outside of my bedroom window. Will go outside next time to use the concrete. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, you've got spots on your lens or filter (see second and fifth photo). I didn't think to take a pic of the mom, just the cute kid. In retrospect I should have taken a pic of both of them. Already knew about the spots, been meaning to do a wet cleaning of that lens for a while but have never gotten around to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iron_Dreamer Posted October 6, 2010 Report Share Posted October 6, 2010 Here's a snap from the new Nikkor 24-120 f/4 VR. Handheld at 120mm f/4 1/8", to torture-test the VR system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knuckledragger Posted October 6, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2010 Leica has a long and sordid history of making WTFexpensive "collector editions" of their cameras. If the Neiman Marcus M9 is a little too pedestrian for your tastes, Walter Desilva designed a titanium version: Leica M9 Titanium by Walter de'Silva Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aerius Posted October 7, 2010 Report Share Posted October 7, 2010 Fall colours should be peaking in a week or two, time to see what Velvia 50 can do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salt Peanuts Posted October 7, 2010 Report Share Posted October 7, 2010 I need to get some new glass. How about the new 8-15mm f/4 L fisheye lens? I, for one, would love to eventually get 24-105. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VPI Posted October 7, 2010 Report Share Posted October 7, 2010 I could imagine the 8-15 being interesting for about a week and then never used again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VPI Posted October 9, 2010 Report Share Posted October 9, 2010 I have been battling very soft pics with the 24-70 on the 7D. Great on everything else but nothing sharp with this lens on the 7D. I know I have to use the micro adjustments but for the time being it has forced me to dust off the 70-200 to stick on the 7D. The funny thing is the 70-200 is an easier daily carry than the 24-70. Of course the flower pics. And a couple boring City pics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salt Peanuts Posted October 10, 2010 Report Share Posted October 10, 2010 Argh, I really need to go out and take some pics, especially since the weather's cooperating this weekend for a change. I looked up the dimension on 24-70 since I've never handled one before and the lens weighs more than gripped 50D. Of course, 85LII, the lens I'd love to try someday, weighs even more.
