Macro Modeįor the example below we shot of an HO scale locomotive near the closest available focusing distance in macro mode (10 cm (about 4 inches)). F11 in the corner is slightly worse than F16 in the center. At F11 diffraction is setting in and F16 suffers significantly from diffraction. F2 is absolutely useable, but exhibits low contrast. The bottom line is that this lens is sharp from F2.8 to F8 with F5.6 best overall, but the differences are small in this range. Diffraction has set in at F11 and becomes severe at F16.F2 takes a close third place but with quite low contrast.Best apertures: F5.6 and F8, closely followed by F2.8 and F4 (but these have visibly lower contrast).Diffraction sets in at F11 and becomes severe at F16.F2 takes third place and exhibits somewhat lower contrast.Best apertures: F4 and F5.6, closely followed by F2.8 and F8.Our findings on resolution and contrast are summarized as follows: Area Nature Amazing how beautiful these are when they open up.Nature A Striped Tulip For You Fine Folks To Enjoy.Caption Contest Caption Contest from now until Friday Cinco de Mayo, 7:00 PM GMT.Theme Contest #201 - May, 2023 (Windows).Project 52 Project 52-11-34-PERSPECTIVE- Shooting through glass.Weekly Challenge #613 Good Photo, Bad Lens.Caption Contest Caption Contest: Open until 5/13/23 Midnight.Monster Adapter LA-KE1 Pentax K to Sony E Lens Adapter.New Pentax K-3 Mark III Monochrome Forum.March 2023 "Landscape in Monochrome" Photo Contest Winners.

I rediscovered the sense of photography, slowing down and taking time for the shot, setting aperture, shutter and focusing, all the manual way, and really having fun again. This actually changed when I bought a used X-E 1 at one point, purely to use with vintage manual lenses. As a result I couldn’t find any pleasure in shooting with it.įor years the camera was only used sporadically. I was blind for the fact that they where completely different cameras and not comparable, and I forgot the reason why I really bought the X100 in the First place. My main camera then was the Pentax K-20, and the X100 couldn’t compete with that, the Pentax was faster, had interchangeable lenses, etc etc. The camera was not what I expected, it had a confusing menu and was painfully slow. When I finally got the camera in 2011, and had photographed with it a few times, the prevailing feeling was disappointment.

The camera cost about €1400 at the time, not cheap for a camera with a fixed lens.īut the X100 breathed nostalgia, and reminded me of the rangefinders from the 35mm film era like the Olympus Trip, Yashica Electro, Canon Canonet and many others. I had to have this camera, and as soon as I got the chance I signed up to get one of the very first.
