The end of a busy week, including band photography, video in a factory and several stock shoots saw the first hint of summer with a couple of warm sunny days. I must have had a good time since I'm lying here typing this with a sore back!!
All above taken with Samsung NX10. The more I use this camera, the more I like it. The 18-55mm kit lens is a real surprise. A very good lens indeed. When I carried out some tests on this lens compared with the 30mm F2, I found it to be very similar in performance. http://soundimageplus.blogspot.com/2010/04/samsung-nx10-prime-or-zoom.html
It is astonishingly good for a kit zoom, excellent sharpness. Plus of course this wonderful Samsung colour. Who would have guessed?
The rest are Leica M9 shots. This is a camera I would use a lot more if it wasn't for the fact that it is VERY bad for accumulating dust spots. Shots at f16 with a blue sky take ages to clean up. I've taken to blower-brushing the sensor every time I use it to keep the spots under control. Full-frame sensors are all very bad for this. I also doubt whether the rangefinder construction will ever allow any kind of dust removal system.
Still, incredible performance as usual.
