Official MUD Photography Thread

FJason80 · 12-26-07, 01:47 AM

I searched, and couldn't find a thread dedicated to user's (non-cruiser) photography. There are some damn good photographers on this site, so hopefully they'll come out and share!

Format:
1. Camera setup
2. Description?

I'll start. I am just an amateur, but as of today I now own a Canon Digital Rebel XT.

Pentax 6x7 medium format w/ various lenses.

Canon A1 and T90 w/ various lenses.

I photograph mainly scenics, particularly waterfalls (medium format) and wildlife (35mm).

I might get a digital for myself at some point. Probably a Canon so I can get an adaptor to use my FD telephoto lenses. The wife has a Canon digital SLR, and it works pretty well for general use. Definitely not going to replace the medium format equipment with digital.

I'll have to dig up my SLR archives, but fwiw, when i do, they are all on an old minolta, 50 and 35/70mm rokor lenses, and a tamron 80/200 zoom
the camera was a wedding present to the folks 4-5 years pre me

Hummingbird outside our front porch, July 2007
Canon EOS Digital Rebel
Shutter 1/125
Aperature 5.0
ISO 200
Focal length 210mm

Topsail Beach, NC
Canon Powershot SD110

Whidbey Island
Canon G2

We have 6 digital Canons, not including 2 that have been broken by dropping. My versatile Canon G2 got bumped off a chair and was unrepairable, so I got a G5 off eBay. My wife has the digital Rebel and the SD110, but I got her a Canon SD1000 for Christmas (larger screen, faster). One daughter has the Canon SD750 (to replace a broken digital Canon something), the other has the Canon SD630. It's actually nice to have a common user interface on all the cameras and all but the Rebel and G2 using SD cards.

ms018kmf · 12-26-07, 04:20 PM

Here's some from around here. Samsung Digimax A7 w/stock lens in poor condition.

ms018kmf · 12-26-07, 04:28 PM

Some critter encounters this year. First one is a Sea Lion, he was checking us out while diving. The next two were critters in the Grand Canyon. The first guy is a little too friendly, the last one is a video still because the bastard was moving quick.

re_guderian · 12-26-07, 04:59 PM

Just got a D-SLR this summer. Canon Rebel XTi, and a few lenses. The first two are from a wildlife park south of Pagosa Springs, last one was taken with a small pocket-sized Canon camera at Toroweap overlook on the Grand Canyon.

ms018kmf · 12-26-07, 10:15 PM

The Grand Canyon is difficult to describe. I can't wait to go back down there.

Sorry, no specs on individual photos.

Quick Question too: any ideas when resizing for mud that doesnt kill picture quality?

Cruiserhead05 · 12-27-07, 06:47 AM

30 second exposure.

D100 and Sigma 18-50 2.8

Get a photobucket account and link the pics.
