p.1 #1 · Postcard machine


a few more from the "postcard machine", D3+14-24... and DR-5 !!

I really enjoyed that combo... and some advice to those who want to use the combo for landscape, I added the angle viewfinder almost systematically and this gave me very interesting viewpoints... it really adds another dimension. You can easily shoot close to the ground for instance, and you really compose differently.

To me: highly recommended. (and I still find it a much better solution in practice than the life view modes)

just a few examples:
#1 Canada has wonderful landscapes...

#2 maybe slightly overprocessed in NX ?

#3 another one with a boat in it

The first one is wow!

I'm amazed by the evenness of exposure in all the shots. The UWA's I used all had this thicker glass syndrome, where the light enters the edges through more glass thereby creating deeper tones all around the frame, especially at the upper side where blue sky is captured. This lens has none of that, probably because of the bulbous shape of the front element.

Hi Gugs,
The creative option this combo gives the photographer is why I just ordered my 14-24. Can't wait to work with it on my D3! Nice shots and thanks for posting.

Man, Guy, amazing scenes. I don't find #2 overexposed at all... very nice colors too.

Cheers.

I think he meant that he processed it a bit beyond reality, but I like it too.

Right you are... I need to get my eyes checked or something... and I agree, I like it too. Thanks for the help leading the near-blind!
