My few cents...

Sony a6500 + SEL24F14GM wide open at base ISO100. It is early morning, I had a horrid hangover and went to the store for some health potions...

And the same feline later with SEL70350G @F8, it needs to be stepped down. Not the best wide open, but at least the glass is very compact for the length. ISO320 as it is the second barrier where on the dual lit sensor noise drops down. Each camera exhibits this behavior. ISO200 will be more noisy than 320, each camera has their own points.

Some ship... at same settings...



Okay... now some Kodak Ektachrome 35mm film on Minolta A7 and Sigma 50mm f/1.4 DG HSM Art. I would remark, they look that and are real scans for diapositives. The film really is so punchy. And the grain is so fine... it is around 20MP equivalent to digital.



That's on Fuji Velvia 100, those are my pictures via 3D printed adapter to my Laowa 100mm f/2.8 2x Ultra Macro APO. I left the holes on purpose(WB)... It is a diapositive, so it is what you see, just get the white balance right. Velvia 100 likes to color shift to purples a lot, The film has very fine grain those pics are WIP, scanning at home, just not everybody's thing... I have currently loaded Velvia 50, everyone says it is much better behaving, will see. You can't shoot positives on cameras that are not precise exposition wise. If you miss it, the emulsion will color shift like crazy, so I use the best film camera I have and trust.



Now some other. Ilford Delta 3200. Yes ISO3200 BW film, average sized grain, not bad at all, the contrast is fine, shadows are linear. I shoot it overexposed at ISO1600 with Minolta 7000 paired with Minolta AF 35-105mm F3.5-4.5N @F6.3 and the second shot with AF 28mm F2.8 wide open. The Minolta is same aged as me, it is a negative so I can fool around, negatives are much more easy to shoot with. I took it to a wedding, so not much to to show without GDPR strike. I will definitely use this film again. As usual, the dorks at the photo shop did scans containing dust... monkeys. It was fun to fire the old camera in church, it was so loud and I didn't give AF .

Although I'm pretty rubbish at taking photos we have some incredible wildlife where I live here are a few shots

 

[Deleted member 202104]

Thanks to everyone posting your photos. I always enjoy them each time the thread pops up to the top.

I figured I should probably share some of mine. These are all oldies, but it's been a while since I've been out to shoot.

Heh, that's a bit how I remember it. I was there more than a decade ago when I backpacked through parts of India. Hippie/backpacker/touristy AF, but really nice place still. I was an idiot and went out in a sleeveless shirt without sunscreen on and got sunburn on my shoulders so bad I got huge blisters while I was there, so... a mixed experience

I eventually managed to locate where the gang gangs are going to nest, they're digging out the hollow they're standing in front of. I do need to get a longer lens than what I've got currently (the 100mm macro is my longest lens). Canon 6D Mk II, 100mm macro (non IS), f9, 1/1000s ISO 5000

Ants really love the everlasting daisies as they open up as they have some sugar or something on the petals as they open. Canon 6D Mk II, 100mm macro (non IS), f9, 1/1000s ISO 5000

All the parrots are wanting to nest now, with these two galahs working on this hollow in this big old stringybark. Canon 6D Mk II, 100mm macro (non IS), f8, 1/2000s ISO 5000

Was going for the bubble at the base and got it easily but then got the goblet shape on top. Pretty happy with this except one of my flashes seems to be firing slightly out of synch.

Dudes, please fill out the specs, the lens and camera used and settings a really OP wanted to and not to turn this thread into mindless flickr/instagram like picture posting mess. I am not fond downloading the file and peeking into exif if it exists. Thanks to all who does that.

Also the exif exposes your real name Aquinus if you are concerned about that. For example I don't care.

For example it is my shot. It will not have have any info as I adapted a manual lens. It is shot on Sigma 70-300mm f/4-5.6 DG with 2x teleconver.

Ah, my bad. Updated the post with the Camera info. Also I don't really care if my real name is exposed, but thanks for pointing it out.

It is shot on Sigma 70-300mm f/4-5.6 DG with 2x teleconver.

How do you feel about the 2x teleconverter? I was debating getting one myself, but the loss of two ƒ stops is a tough pill to swallow with this lens. A 1.4x might be a nice middleground.

So, I have bird feeders in my garden but the crows (Jackdaws) and pigeons have monopolised them. The little birds were getting pushed out so I bought a ground feeder and large cover to keep out the bigger birds. I found a pigeon in the cage one day but it never came back as it practically shit itself trying to get back out when I approached. So far, I've had Sparrows, a highly aggressive Robin, a pair of Coaltits, Starlings, a solitary Dunnet, and a Chaffinch snooping around the new seed deli.

I also have rats and a squirrel.

The first two pics show the difference between my Canon 7DMKII with 300mm f2.8 lens and the same with a TCx2 attached (same rat, different days). I had to manually focus with the teleconverter but the result is pretty good. RAW file sharpened and exposure adjusted. Of note, the 7DMKII is an APS-C sensor so the 35mm equiv is actually 480mm on the bare 300mm lens, and 960 with the tcx2.

@Aquinus, I've got a EOS R and was watching the new Canon lenses. I've got the 35mm 1.8 STM, 50mm 1.8 STM, and the 24-105 f4-7.1. If I didn't have the crazy sharp 300mm f2.8, I'd get the new RF 100-400 as well. The 300mm EF lens (I bought it 2nd hand) weighs a freaking tonne. But it's awesome....

No crops on the pictures.
