Hey Carlj,

Nice shots, seems like you've already cracked the A300, these photo are pretty cool. I especially like the first and last images. The second photo is cool also, but seems a touch flat/dark. Quick tweak and you'll have a winner.

Andrew

A tweak too far :)

Thanks for that. Getting to enjoy the A300, though the grip isn't quite 5D standard. Shots with Sigma 105mm, if anyone wants to know!

Been a bit overblown that situation. It's not great, but it will do just fine, bright enough and covers 95% so cant complain with such a good live view system.

Good to see you are already getting results from it.

like the Jpegs/IQ?

But, for storage reasons, the missus shoots jpg on the A200, and yup, even at default, are impressive!

Carlj

Try a high ISO b/w jpeg sometime, pretty grain and good detail, if you are into that sort of thing.

I think the grain from Sony's CCD's looks nicer than the CMOS grain.

Carl

Pretty impressive first set of shots! Nice strong compositions, nice and sharp, and the colors look great. I actually like the 2nd one as is (slightly darker) as it seems in-line with the mood just after the rain.

Keep 'em coming!

And welcome Keith!

Acid test is when the big Tammy comes out. I know the A200 is faster focussing than my 5D, but I need to see how the OVF copes. Mind you, could mount the lens, and show off in the hide with liveview :)

Still working on most though.

and a little experiment
