Quote from Electrik Kar :Hey Taavi, if you're into old cameras/lenses, check out this stuff by my friend, Timur Civan. He's using a 100 year old lens and getting some really amazing shots with it...

Some shots from Saaremaa Rally 2010

I was testing a Canon 400D alongside my Pentax K-m, both had a Sigma 70-300 1:4-5.6 mounted and i have to say that there's not much difference, as far as the AF is concerned. All the images above are taken with my Pentax K-m.

Mentioned a while back I was heading on a quick vacation to the beach. I never did upload and post.

I woke up early to head out for some sunrise. Problem was, didn't think about the fact that the sun rises much earlier at the beach than at home. Woke up pretty early, certainly earlier than I was expecting the sun to be breaking the horizon yet and there it was way up in the sky already, LOL.

Anyways, here's the only decent shot I got from the weekend.

Local little town had a fall festival today. took the girls down to roam around. Sat and listened to this guy for a while playing his cigar box guitar.

And while we're at it, here are a couple of uploads I did not long ago of some boring flower shots. I never played around with the macro function of the ole superzoom. Figured out some stuff that I liked with it. These are outdoors in natural sunlight.

Hello guys,

I come here with a question for you - photography lovers

I'm starting to get into photography and i would like to get sugestions what camera should i buy. I have my own photo gallery open,well,basicly all website,but it's in Lithuanian so you won't understand a word,just check "Foto galerija" to see some of my works. I'm curentley using Sony Cybershot and i'm not that happy with it since i want to do some higher quality photos. I know that photography could help me in life, becouse my dream is to be journalist and to follow my father,uncle etc. I know how to work with video camera now, and i would like to know how to make decent photos.

So that's my life story! ;D

Link to my gallery : http://laurynofotografija.weebly.com

So what brand,type etc. camera should i get?

Thanks for your help guys,

Laurynas

@DeadWolfBones - Loving the photo's bud, the DoF you get is superb.

Thanks, man.

Nearly all of these were done with the Nikkor 50/1.2 Ai on FF, which explains the DoF. What's really remarkable is how sharp the in-focus area is (small though it may be) at that aperture.
