Tulip with my new camera

Post by salden »

New camera for me, but I purchased this used from KEH and it arrived today. It is the Canon 1Ds. This is a grab image of one of my tulips. I wanted to see how the camera did with my macro lens (Canon 100mm). Comments?

This is full frame with a little sharpening applied only.

Yes Rik, the sun was going down fast when I got home, so I had to put the camera together (battery, etc.) and get outside. The tulip was handy. I think the 1Ds has the same color capture as the D60.

Looks like it does really super there Sue, color saturation is great I think. Must be nice to shoot full frame. :wink: I was at one time considering the 5D but with the economy being as it is, I will probably have to win the lotto to get it. :lol:

Yeah, thats pretty darn good Sue :wink: The colours are gorgeous with the red and yellow. The sensor size will knock you out with the res this thing can take. A huge congrats on the new baby. Its a beauty.

All the best Sue and yep, that colouring is a knockout. :wink:

Danny.
Worry about the image that comes out of the box, rather than the box itself.

I agree, really incredible colors and excellent sharpness. The lighting is wonderful.

Stunning colours!

That's the original 1ds (mk1) I presume?

Is that converted from a RAW or an out of camera JPEG?

Yep, the original 1ds. This is converted from RAW. I only do raw, then convert to .tiff and save in .jpg.

Nice! :D
You've conviced me... but didn't you have some kind of polarizer filter on? :-k
Not to be nitpicker, I saw one very tiny black spot under the flower base. (About 1/5 lenght of distance to the frame.) At first I thought it was dust particle on my screen. O:)

No filter, but a dust speck on my lens. I keep a cap on my lenses, but dust still finds a way.
