This is why i don't have my Nikon D1x anymore. there was dust on the sensor and as i cleaned it, the surface of the sensor got chipped somehow. i was quite annoyed. so my advice is to get it done professionally, luckily my D1x was still under warrenty and i got my money back.

It may cost you around £10-15 but it's better than ruining a £800 camera.

Unfortunately i've been told if you send it back to Canon they just use a blower, and more times than not the cameras come back with more dust on them than before, which is why i'm using the hands on approach as suggested as the best way to do it here...

If you follow instructions carefully etc. it does says it's the most effective way of doing it. I'm just scared :nana:

sir i don't know how you do it, but you always seem to get this fairytale quality to your pics. like it's something i've imagined and not a real place. it's so beautiful and peaceful looking.

[Misanthrope]

I have been looking at all of the pictures, and realize I am way out of my league. However, I will post anyway.

This is a picture of my office window.

[Fick]

I went out on the hills yesterday evening. I would never have though a view over Middlesborough could look nice!

(apologies for double post, my webhost appears to be knackered)

[Loveli]

A co-worker asked me to take pictures of her dogs for her. So I did. The white one sheds like a fiend and the black one is so high energy. They are so much fun. The white one enjoyed licking my neck as I sat on the front steps.

[Leonidas]

I'm only now getting into this photography stuff, but I thought this turned out well enough to post here.

[vampiress]

wow leo. that is such a good pic. i've been trying to photo some of my rocks but no success. what are the rocks on?

[oppernaR]

I woke up next to this this morning:

(scary lizard removed for space)

[Leonidas]

They are sitting on a fancy black plate my mum has in her house. The whole thing is a centre piece on a table. The flash showed up quite well against it.

I was out in the West End of Glasgow today, which in my opinion is the nicest end. (not saying much) And it does have a few good photo oppertunities. I have a few but don't want to triple/quadriple post, so I will ration them for now. But first off, in a city famous for it's statues, here's my favourite. In memory of Glaswegian cartoonist Bud Niell, most famous for his creation Dobbie the Sheriff, pictured.

[Leonidas]

And here's another strange statue. Erected outside the University of Glasgow four years ago when the Huterian Museum nearby was doing a huge dinosaur thing. It was only meant to stay up a few months, but it's still here. And you can see it confusing all the foreign students and tourists.

[Captain Mark]

Here's my first try with a new camera

79.7 KB - Yay it fits :)

[mittens]

i loves my new camera...

and daylilies in the morning

[Leonidas]

And here's my favourite buildind in Glasgow. The main building to the University of Glasgow. I love the old gothic arcitecture.

[katox]

We came home from being on holiday to be greeted with a garden nearly in full bloom. Really is lovely. :)

[vampiress]

i think my problem is i take some interesting pics, i just never know what to do with them in photoshop to tweak them.

anyway, i love this tree.

CBA finding the widescreen thread :rolleyes:

[Captain Mark]

Beautiful work, DarkTrojan.

+ed :D

[vampiress]

ohi love that plant cap'n. pity i killed mine by accident. i brought it inside for the winter and we obvioudly do not get enough light inside. but that's a cool pic.

[EasyTiger]

Before I go to bed... playing with my macro lens. The picture is a bit pants, and i've done it before, but I just love this lens..

[kebab?]

What lens is it? my Tamron 90mm macro lens is no more than a portrait lens, the macro function sucks.


*can't wait until his Minolta Dimage Z2 arrives* :D :D

[Captain Mark]

Morning all, it's 7:30 over here

Perfect time to take a picture of green glass.

[kebab?]

1.3" @ f/8

This is what boredom + new camera does to you :D

Minolta Dimage Z2, yeah!

[Fick]

I presume the Z2 is the next model up from my lowly Z1.

[kebab?]

Yeah. It's not all that different. I only went for Z2 because... erm... i dunno why.

but it's 4mp instead of 3.2 and can focus closer when using the super macro feature (2 or 3 cm from the front of the lens i think). only problem is that the lens is now 2.8-3.7, instead of 2.8-3.5 (i think that was what the z1 was.. right?)

Oh, i keep meaning to ask you... do you think that the wide angle converter is worth the money? being a poor person (well, i am now!) i don't want to throw some money down and not being happy with it.

[Fick]

The z1 has pretty impressive super macro.

This was taken using the super macro, with the lens about 3cm from the playing card. Left picture is the full thing, right is an actual pixel crop.

http://www.srcf.ucam.org/~pjh64/PICT2451.jpg http://www.srcf.ucam.org/~pjh64/PICT2451a.jpg

Then these were taken using a +4 close up filter. Again, full thing and actual pixels.

http://www.srcf.ucam.org/~pjh64/PICT2453.jpg http://www.srcf.ucam.org/~pjh64/PICT2453a.jpg

They aren't the greatest photos, but should be good enough to get the idea.

I've got a wide angle converter, and the one thing about it that annoys me is that due to it's size you can't use the onboard flash with it.

One thing that I would recomend is that adapter tube. This comes with the wide angle (it's how it attaches) but is available separately. Basically it screws on over the lens so that when it is fully extended it is just inside an extension to the case. This lets you use 52mm filters to your hearts content. But not with the wide angle filter without getting a little bit of vignetting.

[kebab?]

I found an adapter kit on ebay, which was the adapter ring, 2 52mm filters (a UV and a polarizer) and a petal shaped lens hood. was like £20 but the seller was from Hong Kong, so it would have cost about £20 for P+P.

Heh... the bug didn't want his picture taken...

[Alex_carney]

i got me a lovely picture of a weebl cookie, (actually a normal cookie broken in half, shhhhhh)


[edit] for some reason it a bit big, never mind.

It's a Canon 100mm Macro lens :)

I love it, but unfortunately i've only bought it so I can try it. It's really too expensive :(

I like this picture, even though the silouhette failed, it still has an eerie feeling about it.

I got my Dimage Z2, Tamron 90mm macro and 2 Metz flashguns from there and i'm paying monthly for them.

I think the canon 100mm macro is £17/month. have a looksie :)

edit: it says £173/month on the site... i'm pretty sure it's wrong though :P

Yeah I had a look on there. I was thinking of getting it from 7dayshop.com because they have it on there for £319, but that's still a bit too much :/
I don't really want to pay for something monthly because it will just annoy me.. I'd rather pay for it straight away. We'll see eh :shock:

[vampiress]

redria,
i think you missed the concept of this thread. it's more for just really cool, pretty,or odd things you take pictues off on that day. pics of you sleeping can go in the pics of you thread in the hottub, and there is also a pics of your cat thread.
/edit the cross pic is quite nice, still would be nice to resize them.

your pics are also quite large and i have a decent conenction at work and those links ground me to a halt. please try resizing them. if perchance your pic happenes to be a gif...here is a nifty free online pic editing site. gifworks (http://www.gifworks.com./cgi-bin/gifworks.pl?com=transfer_open) i have used this extensively.

i found this jpeg one but i have not tried it. jpeg editor (http://www.jpegwizard.com/)


and here is a link to supposedly free photoediting programs. Top 6 Free Photo Editors for Windows (http://graphicssoft.about.com/cs/imageediting/tp/freephotoedw.htm)

so no whining that you cannot afford photoshop:)

/edit. you now what, i was trying to be nice. your pics are fairly unremarkable. pre i am far from a good photographer, but i am choosy about what pics i post in this thread. i wasn't being mean, and i'm biting my tongue now, but your pics are fecking huge and i'm glad they don't display on the page.

[vampiress]

what is that?
it is quite pretty.

[fizzy purple]

I hope this isn't the thing called 'double posting'. :o
(Should I have just edited my previous post?)

Anyway. The picture is from just after I got my camera, and I was trying it out to see what it could do. It's some streetlights, but I was in a car, so it came out like that (I knew it would, I was just seeing what it would look like).

Here's another from the same time that I like.
http://img78.photobucket.com/albums/v315/fizzypurple/weebl%20stuff/Dscn0175.jpg

That one is a rock wall with lights shining on it, but it came out looking kind of like a fire. And someone has said it looks like a sunset.

Edit: Forgot to say, thanks Vampi. :)

[Spoo]

Not very exciting but i took it today with my new camera and its of my new house :D

(Fuji FinePix S7000 if you're interested!)

[mittens]

i am so the envious of your house, spooneh.
just more flowers from me, this time to match the forums

[Spoo]

Perhaps i should note I live in one of the flats in that house! It's not all mine...

Guitars are pretty! Being taking shots with the camera in CCD-RAW mode and its amazing the adjustments you can make to the image simply by changing the white balance and using custom settings!

I played around with different shutter speeds and apertures, and found this to work out best, slightly red, but mostly orange (1/640 @ f/8). i took some more, one is about 1/200 @ f/8 and it's very orange, the other is 1/1000 @ f/8 and is pretty dark and more red than anything else. i may post one of these up later. :D

Most digital cameras have a macro function that allows you to go much closer to the subject. It is usually a little flower on a particular button..

You're probably going to tell me that is taken in macro now :/

Nice insect pics. How do you get them to stay still long enough to get a good photo? ;)

I did the flower pictures using the macro button, hence it looking like tasty velvet... mmmmm

I like the insect pictures, especially ET's, you can even see the littlle hairs on their feet!

[EasyTiger]

Thank you! :)

Getting them to stay still wasn't too hard, but once close enough I had to reel off enough photos to make sure I got a sharp one before they flew away ;)

Nice photies vampi!

Very nice ET :)

The trick is to take lots, very quickly before they fly away and prey there's a sharp one in there ;)

Those were rather scary ET although very good. I hate insects.

Here's a purdy pink flower.

Thanks to Tofufi who always resizes them for me. :)

I love macro photography, I wish I could find the lens I'm after on ebay, I don't wanna pay full price :p

Till then I'm stuck using the existing macro mode. Poops.

Besides that, I can always take normal photos, such as this one:

Now I must take my car to the hospital to be made all better..

[Captain Mark]

:shock: No one on weebl and bob has ever taken a picture of an ape/guerrila before.

V. Good work, Ms. Goodall Tiger

[EasyTiger]

Thank you! :) Here's another! I love my 75-300mm lens :D

[piemastermike]

Wow, they're cool! I love your 75-300 lens!

[edit] i know what im talking about :rolleyes:

[EasyTiger]

I don't think 3000mm lenses exist ;D But thank you ;)

[Seraph]

Here is a photo i just took of one of the many mammoth sunflowers in my backyard.
(They are 6'5 each, so you can sort of imagine just how big these are!)

I got a new camera for my 18th last week! Its a Sony P73. Real nifty!

[EasyTiger]

That's lovely seraph! Beautiful colours and great composition. I like! :)

[kebab?]

Some crazy orange bug, shoulda got closer really. And compression has totally killed this picture :(

[Seraph]

Thanks alot ET :)

Here is another photo I took, its kind of strange.. Its of my dog. She has a flower from the garden!

I just liked how the light was shining on her, and the color of the pink flower against her cream colored coat looked really neat.

[kebab?]

crazy hairy lookin' plantflower thing. :)

[Misanthrope]

Sheesh Kebab, stop throwing around all those technical terms, your confusing me. Lovely picture by the way.

[lellykelly]

Another flower. I'm too scared to get near bugs at the moment.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v149/lellykelly/100_0349.jpg

[kebab?]

hehe... sheesh kebab... :P

i've no idea what it's called, so i get as technical as possible :D

[EasyTiger]

"Gooood. Gooooooood."

Anyone who calls themselves a family guy fan should understand this related image :P

[Comrade Penguin]

My camera has been a bit funked recently. The battery doesnt hold it's charge properly and the lenses have been going a bit funny when doing landscapes. So I thought I would test the macro. The exposure was horribly too long when used on auto exposure. Took years of fidling to get this and as there only 2 manual apperture setting it was a pain in the arse but still I thought it looked ok so

[lellykelly]

Another. Not very good. I took quite a few pictures of flowers today. :) Apparantly this is a one day Lilly.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v360/vampiress144/sky.jpg i took this last weekend when leaving a gig at the amphitheatre.
looking lovely everybody.
mittens what is that in your sig? looks like a bunch of coloured condoms. when i was at uni we took the coloured condoms and made a display ont he door of the ra so people could swipe them when walking by and not be embarassed to ask for a condom. it ended up looking like that.

[Seraph]

Here's a photo of some Red Flowers in my backyard, Im not quite sure what they are called and my mom is out of town, so i cant ask her!

They are really pretty tho! :)

i went to see evanescence tonight. the show was eh ok, but i liked how the lights looked in all of the smoke.
http://vampiress144.com/evanescence/ev1.jpg

[piemastermike]

Wow, Evanescence are shit but those lights are amazing with the smoke and stuff.... nice one!

As the whole flower thing seems to be overdone i think it's time for some dying flowers! (same ones i took pictures of before... but older!)

the most amazing flowers that grow in my garden. aren't they lovely? they look like they are from another planet.

[Minted]

Those are very bizarre LeoZ, you're right, they do look alien. Sleep with one eye open in case the implant themselves into your brain while you sleep :eek:

This picture was taken using my scanner. Yes, my Canon flatbed scanner. Quite a fun thing to play with, very interesting to play with this to take landscapes etc. Still waiting for a USB powered scanner I can take with me. Anyhow, here is my self portrait :D

[EasyTiger]

I played with water last night again... unfortunately this is the best I came up with after about 500 photos :(

[LeoZ]

Yes my plants are very wierd. And that photo ia really cool, easytiger. Looks very professional.

Under the boardwalk...

http://www.srcf.ucam.org/~pjh64/PICT2580.jpg

Slightly colour adjusted in photoshop. It's a shame the underside of the pier is a bit too dark, I might see what I can with that later.


http://www.srcf.ucam.org/~pjh64/PICT2584.jpg

Again played with the variations tool, possibly a bit too much. Wanted to try to brighten up the foreground without loosing the sunbeams and the coastline continuing into the haze.

[Captain Mark]

Damnit Fick I can't lay a hand to that.

2. (http://cheesefarm.co.uk/ly/hol-usa2004%20240.jpg) - mmm sun through trees.
3. (http://cheesefarm.co.uk/ly/hol-usa2004%20330.jpg) - simply, a zebra at a zoo.
4. (http://cheesefarm.co.uk/ly/vegas-nyny.jpg) - the New York New York hotel in las vegas, and the angry-looking MGM lion. (yes, i went on that rollercoaster :D and it was VERY scary)

edit some slightly large...

[lottie_pants]

In the last one, all those big buildings don't look real! Like some sort of toy town.

I can't seem to believe my eyes.

hehe, they're not REALLY the real buildings, just copies, smaller, merged to make the one hotel. and a very nice hotel too may i say :)

[lellykelly]

now this one is wierd. i know the foreground is out of focus, but i think the flowe below in the shade and in focus turned out spectacular.
i was aiming for that one anyway and the breeze kept moving the flowers.

Agreed Vampi. A photo from today in the garden. Take 1 web, a spray bottle and a macro lens:

This is a tribute to the men (and women) who died during WW1 and 2 in a small village in the middle of nowhere. i like this picture, and for not looking at the screen when taking the pic, i think it's framed quite nicely :)

[Loveli]

Flutterby broken butterfly.

I tried to catch a butterfly today, but i missed it and it flew into next doors garden.

[kebab?]

This is exactly how it is straight off the camera, no photoshop, no in-camera toning, just a pretty crazy storm and the sun. :)

(the storm would explain the rain spots on the window)
