New H5D -50c

Nice shots, Domenico. This is confirming what I have been finding. I just finished a series of shoots in Montana in a variety of conditions--mostly landscape--and I am very happy with the colors. The main difference between the H5D-50c and my older H4D-60 is the smaller sensor so I have to get used a noticeable loss of wide coverage. I replaced the 28mm with a 24mm, so that takes care of it at the wide end. I just need to get used to the other lenses "reaching" farther. Love the camera. I use it now in plenty of places where before I would have dug out the Nikons for low light

By the way, I use a combination of old batteries and the new ones. The old ones work just fine, though their life is much shorter. Your measure, Domenico, of 10% for a 12-minute exposure is useful to know.

Thanks Timothy,
I'm very satisfied by the result, and the low light ability is very appreciated too, two days ago I was in the city center without a tripod, just for looking I've made a fee hand shot in the night to the central square of my little town.. with a 50mm II @ F3,5 1/45 of second... the result speaks by itself...

About the battery I have the same combination of new and old battery, it's true the old one discharges query quickly compared to the new model and I look forward to buy a new 2900mA spare battery after vacation season.... anyway I found the new is capable of more than 250 shot and it's not bad generally I don't use the spare one...

Best regrads, Domenico.
