Attached is the installation of the vertical triptych. 11 feet high.
Again, thanks David F. for the idea three years ago, and the trip from which it was taken two years ago.

I told the client we had enough resolution to print on fine art paper, but the client preferred the look of canvas wrap to match other artwork in the area.…[Read more]

Do you still have the adapter for sale. Thanks Martin

At ISO 80, the D-LUX 6 has plenty of resolution. Nice photo, Dale!

Read an account by a guy on safari in Africa who rigged up solar cells on his backpack that would charge spare batteries during the day. He was pretty popular with other members of the group… 🙂

It is not so easy to take pictures while going backwards on a carousel at full speed.

Jack guessed right…two hot lights, one up very high camera behind and to the right of the model, backlighting the water, one at about 8′ high, left and behind camera and a strobe as main, metered for f/8. The water is from a garden hose held by an assistant on a ladder camera left…pointed up towards the ceiling. It's kind of a production to…[Read more]

My guess is three lights as I see a highlight on her hair.

Most of the shots from this shoot were taken with the 70mm CS lens but these were with the 120mm CS. I've read some comments in other posts about this lens not being well suited for portraiture…but it's one of my favorites.

Then, set both of the dials on top of the camera to “A” (or in my case I usually have the speed to A and the f to 8 or 11). Then press and hold the Delete/Focus button until the small box in the center (or…

I really like the G-Star Raw – the extras like the wrist strap and carry case I really use, and they account for a lot of that difference.

people think it's the same as the LX7 but there are subtle differences. At least in jpg-files.

Nevertheless, I use the D-Lux 6 very often and for most family oriented photos it is a lovely camera, also for some other stuff like quick macros for selling something etc.

For me, pressing D/F, before or after focusing, works fine, without any blanking of the EVF or LCD display (whichever is in use).

Having tried your D-Lux 6 I agree with you that it is a very nice handling camera.
Thanks for letting me try it.

Any time!

I have shot a few thousand photographs on the M240. It has exceeded my expectations. It surpasses the M9 in many areas. It is a real joy to use and feel fortunate to have mine.

Let me do my best to try and address all of your concerns.

Buffer size is fantastic. I rarely hit the buffer on the new M and when I did it cleared extremely…[Read more]

Just a quick update: the second adapterI tried had exactly the same issues as menos describes. This made me reconsider my purchase. I've sent the adapter back for a refund, obviously there are adapters that work flawlessly, but you know, twice bitten … I cannot work with an adapter that is unreliable. I'll stick to S lenses for now.
