Silverton End Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 1 hour ago, MixuFixit said: I forgot I had this. It's a reverse mount that fits an old manual focus 50mm lens backwards onto my camera and converts it into a macro lens, having great fun. Only downside is the aperture ring doesn't function so I'm stuck with whatever it's on, looks like about f/8. I've no idea about 'camera speak', but that's a nice capture of the arachnids' abdominal patterns. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either that or you were pissed when you posted this I honestly wasn't pissed! What a torrid time I'm having trying to post photos online. Having a complete nightmare posting photos to facebook and here, for some reason the photo quality is absolutely terrible when its uploaded. Sizing it down to the correct size, converting to jpeg, using a sRGB colour scheme isnt working - something has happened thats changed and I can't figure out what! Weirdly, photo uploads are great quality on my windows work laptop but shite on my own mac. Anyway, how are you (and others posting more than one photo at a time? I can't attach a single photo because it says you can only "attach 8 MB at a time" so what is it I'm not doing that you guys are regarding this? I know I've posted multiple pics on his thread in the past but for some reason I can't anymore, not sure what I'm doing wrong. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamamafegan Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 How does the quality look of that? Looks shite to me, grainy and pixelated. Previous photos haven't looked like that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I''m guessing its something to do with your conversion settings. Failing that delete the software and do a fresh install? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use Flickr to upload all my photos and then link from there....I find a lot of the time uploading them directly to here tends to compress the photo. In saying that the example you posted up doesn't seem to bad at all. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo Fife Posted November 9, 2019 Author Share Posted November 9, 2019 Not been out much recently with work being shit and shit weather. Popped along to a local reserve to see how these bad boys were getting on. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hearthammer Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 Decided to go out this morning with the camera, despite the weather. I'm afraid the rain and mist affected the quality. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mackie The Staggie Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 Was back out at the football at the weekend, getting too cold for this now. This time it was Inverness Athletic vs Thurso in the North Caley League. Inverness coming off a run of bad results and i think Pic one explains a lot in my view......if you keep tackling your teammates....it's hard to win games. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MONKMAN Posted November 21, 2019 Share Posted November 21, 2019 In Iceland at the moment so went out hunting the northern lights and for a bit of stargazing. Forgot the camera attachment for my tripod so resting the camera on the car bonnet was the best I could do. 15 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MONKMAN Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 An Icelandic pony. Felt bad feeding it some bread as I’m basically fattening it up for the Japanese meat market. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
