I'm an average photographer (I think), and a terrible guitarist, but I still enjoy both. I've been having lessons for the guitar, but I still suck, but I'm not giving up, as it gives me pleasure. Looking at your photos, I'm not sure what your aim was in taking the shots? What you see with...

Aperture priority for me, keep iso low as I shoot with a crop sensor, point focus on nearest eye, natural light plus reflector, use exposure compensation to get the skin tone right, slight over exposure and wide aperture to clean up the background a bit, and as my 'model' has a wonderful 'dusky...

Best mall for camera gear is Fortune Town on Rama 9 (MRT is best way to get there). MBK also worth a visit, mainly for the small 'grey import' shop on the photographic floor (opposite the Canon video store).

The GX1 was good at the time, but unlike classic film cameras, the improvements in newer models are significant and will effect image quality. The micro four thirds sensor is quite small compared to apsc and full frame, so older models will suffer from significant noise issues, especially in...

Another vote for the 27mm. Good focal length for street, quick focus, sharp and it's low cost.

That made me laugh! To borrow from the portrait Talk forum, I guess this is the photo I should have posted, as it tells the story....

Thanks for the friendly welcomes

Unfortunately this option was limited to just two positions that were a long way from the track. There were some openings for the safety crews, but these only provided shots of the cars moving away. I arrived early and scouted the course. Also not able to get to thr fence itself. May need...

I've posted some of my photos to illustrate my question, but I think the 'Talk' forum may be more appropriate than the photo forum? I took my Fuji XE-2 and XF 55-200 zoom to a Supercar Street racing event in Thailand, but found that the entire track was encased in armco and high level catch...

Ah! That must have been a tad annoying.

I use Pixl for quick edits on the tablet, but not sure about your raw file format.

If you didn't have the family limit set up from first uploading, then search engines amd bots can rack up the views in those first minutes very quickly.

Hi. Happy to join such as active amd friendly forum. Not created any posts yet, just contributed to a few so far. Ex-pat living and working in Bangkok. Been interested in photography since before digital was invented, but glad that I no longer need to inhale fixer to see my images. Mainly...
