Sadly Ive decided this is not the forum for me 

Ive tried to bring interest to it but certain people just seem to only be interested in shooting down anything thats not worrying about how many buttons a camera has  etc....

 

Rather than waste anymore time I will just call it a day

 

Admin please could you remove my account

 

Thanks :)

Ignore certain people and have fun with the rest. You can block the idiots. Works well. I've done it. Life is good without having to see their inane sputterings.

 

If not ... hasta la vista hombre.

Thank you 

I have been a little hasty !

 

The ignore feature will be useful

 

mdm I am not looking for people to kiss each others backsides saying how great the work is etc , I agree those sites are horrible

 

I just wanted to try and encourage more people to post pics rather than just talking about the cameras , it could be a nice balance ?

I think all forums are roughly the same, not every post will interest everyone.Personally, if someone wants to explain all the buttons on his or hers camera, or how many lathes he owns for instance,that's fine by me, just ignore any posts you don't like!.I'm just glad that enthusiastic people take the time and trouble to start these forums in the first place.

Ah but you forget frod, not all have the same conditions in weather.  I'd like to trade for 3-6 months your grey & wet weather if you take my winter sunny and warm (90°F+) weather from Southern California. :D But since we can't, how bout we trade pictures instead?

 

Alf, I know we exchanged a few post in your India thread and it was nice.  Stick around and I'll be posting some pictures when I come back from Japan.  Who knows, the pictures might entice you to go :D

      Looking for Full Frame lenses to adapt to GFX

      By Giampaolo Masserano · Posted

      I use a TECHART ring to mount Canon EF lenses on the GFX 50S-II and 100S-II, maintaining image stabilization and autofocus. The only limitation are lenses with a small rear element diameter that make it impossible to cover medium format. Fast lenses like the EF 85/1.2L or the 100-400L, however, work great.

      Looking for Full Frame lenses to adapt to GFX

      By thelostkiwi · Posted

      I also use a Nikon to GFX Fringer and it works very well.  24mm f/1.8 vignettes so best used on 35mm mode.  50mm f/1.8 covers the entire frame very well with no issues and is a superb little lens. 105mm Sigma vignettes slightly but is perfectly usable. 300 f/4 likewise the 105.  I have a 70-200 f/20+.8 incoming to test so will report back but I'm expecting a little vignetting.  Even in 35mm mode the image is still 60MP and if you're prepared to manually crop and correct you can get 80-90 MP images.  I also have a C/Y to GFX adapter.  The 24mm Sigma Superwide vignettes strongly. Ditto 28-80 Zeiss Sonnar. 80-200 f/4 Sonnar is perfectly usable. All work fine as 35mm mode lenses.  I also have an M42 adapter which I tried with the Carl Zeiss Jena 135mm f/3.5 with good results.

      Image correction with GF20-35

      By jerryy · Posted

      Ahh, the infamous brick wall photos… 😀 According to internet lore, if the dng converter does not properly apply the corrections, you can have it apply custom profiles that should work for you. How to do that is waaaaaay outside of this comment’s scope, but there are plenty of sites listed in the search engines that step you through the processes. Best wishes.

      Image correction with GF20-35

      By Trevor R · Posted

      Jerry Thank you very much. That is extremely helpful. It seems that the camera and the lens have the latest firmware update, so it appears that the corrections should be applied automatically. The lens arrived this afternoon and I took some quick test shots, in which the correct lens information appeared in the EXIF files, so that sounds good. I used Adobe DNG converter to convert the Raw (RAF) files, and then opened the DNG files and saved them in PSD format. However, with a beautiful, clear, cloudless blue sky, there were no lines near the edges to check if distortion had been corrected. Another day I plan to photograph a brick wall. Thank you for your help.
