I love the way that image just pulls your eye to the center no matter how you look at it. Got details on the shot? Lens, settings, etc?

gary88 · 12-30-2010, 01:41 PM

Canon 50D
EF-S 10-22mm f/3.5-4.5 @ 10mm
f/5.6
1/15
ISO 1600

I originally bought the lens with plans to only use it on vacation then sell it when I got back, but I can't let it out of my sight now

The 10-22 is a really fun lens to play with, especially @ 10mm, on a crop body.

An older photo I took during the dragonboat races in town.

I guess... to go along with the flying theme?

Thanks Chewy, next time I'll try to get both the bird and moon in focus. When using 700mm of focal length that's easier said than done.

Chewy734 · 01-04-2011, 12:18 PM

haha... 500mm with the 1.4x teleconverter? that's gotta be... heavy?

Yes, but that was on a sturdy tripod with a gimbal head.

Here's hand held with the same lens/TC combination:

That's at 1/1000-second which is about as slow as you can go without bracing against something, even with image stabilization. I've got a linebacker build, but I can only manage a few shots before seeking a brace or my tripod. 1/2000-second would have sharpened this one up slightly. I had enough light, but I was in a hurry to get a shot or two off.

Chewy734 · 01-04-2011, 12:58 PM

Ahh, yeah... it looks like AF almost missed the focus on the bird and got the metal supports in the background instead? f/5.6, right?

Sylon · 01-04-2011, 01:18 PM

I'll add one, but dcstep's shots are awesome!
