**Post UP** Favorite 2-3 Photos You've Taken and Camera Used

MontegoGoGoGo · 08-23-2009, 12:02 PM

Please post your favorite couple of photos you've taken and what kind of camera you took them with, lens too. Please don't post any that have been altered on the computer.

Don't know if a thread like this has been done, if so sorry. Can someone point me to it?

I'm looking into a new camera, I currently have a Leica something or other, it's a P&S, no lenses can be added.

Thinking of getting this: Canon - EOS Digital Rebel T1i 15.1-Megapixel Digital SLR Camera - Black.

Thanks and I look forward to seeing your awesome stuff!

Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ18. Fixed Leica lens. Both images taken through a window from well inside my house. The zoom on this camera is amazing.

All with a Canon 20D. First two using a 10-22 zoom and the last a 300/4IS prime. The camera has the same format as the T1i you're considering (only the T1i has twice the resolution of my old 20D). Both these lenses will work well on the T1i.

I don't think any even remotely good pic I've taken would meet this requirement. My good pictures in particular always need at least a little processing on the computer to get me happy with them.

All of my photos get processed through DxO to correct lens distortion and improve sharpness.

I only shoot in RAW...so by definition every photo I post has some minor tweaks done...

rodi · 08-24-2009, 07:32 PM

it's not tweaking or editing - it's developing. film has evolved.

disclaimer: there is a line not to be crossed, however.

MontegoGoGoGo · 08-24-2009, 08:22 PM

I asked because I want to see exactly what I can expect from the camera itself. I run a small design studio, so I'm well aware of what goes into getting a photo ready for an ad!
