I'm still amazed at the picture quality of a Samsung cell phone camera.

Just messing around while taking the dog for a walk and shot this

Fall is a little late this year as we haven't even had a dusting of snow yet . . . hell it hasn't even been below freezing.

 

You can tell from this pic that Old man winter is waking up and he's ready to chill you to the bone.

From my drive into work this morning. The rising Sun turned the dew to mist as the day warmed to early summer temperatures, November be damned:

Just getting started again. More than 10 years after I sold all my analogue Nikon SLR gear I recently bought a Sony Alpha 77 SLT and some equipment.

 

Here some samples what I got so far.

Very nice!

 

I have a sony a5100 I do video stuff with.

For video, it's miles ahead of all other cameras in price range.

Thanks.

 

I'll probably gonna get one of the mirrorless Sonys and slap a 35 or 50 prime on. Brilliant for city travel / street photography (and video too ofc).

 

Unfortunately I don't have permissions to post portraits I took.

I put a dirty cheap but decently working strobe setup together. I got 2 Yongnuo 560 IV, they are very cheap and great for that purpose. One Metz 52 af-1. Some cheap light stands and very cheap softboxes. A black sheet as background, a few reflectors and you're all set for less than EUR 400,-.

It's November. So, it is only an artificial flower.

Looking at @' picture right above mine, I can't help but wonder how he got it so big in his post?  I know mine is way bigger than it posted, but I've never been able to post a picture any bigger.  It's not that I have size envy or anything, but -sheesh- what's the secret there?

If you are using a apple I pad or I phone, on the latest operating system upgrade they have it set up if you use a cable that go s from lightning to use that they make. ($29.00). It allows you to attach your camera to either one and download pictures. The photos are reduced in size but at least if you are traveling you can send out a few pictures. Bought one and have been played no with it. Seems to work pretty good for face book or any other app that you share basic pictures on. So far the files seem to be in about the 2mb size. A far cry from the 75 to 90mb that my camera files are stored at

@@djMot I even reduced the size of the picture - which is originally 24 MP.

I guess I just uploaded it to my webserver and put it in as an img link in the editor.

 

@@bds1961 you must not upload the RAW images, which are 30 MBish big. Just export it as jpg in Lightroom or whatever you're using. Will still have the same size but only 2-3 MB big.

You must have a full-frame sensor in your camera. The APS-c sensor in my 70 D gives me 25-30 Mb RAW files.
