This is an experimental shot.
Yes it is a panoshot, but done overhead. Boy those old bones were groaning.
The original pic is muuuuch bigger in size and so deeply impressive on my Eizo rotated in upright position. E-3, 11-22, in 11 mm position, fully opened, ISO1600. I wished i had the 7-14 with me...


The impressive absolutly stunning Cathedal of Mantova... it is a must see !!

Here's my favorite lens, the ED 50/2.0, on the E-3, doing what it is best at:



but a few minutes later, the lens stopped communicating with the camera. No AF, no aperture control, no MF for that matter! Never had that happen before, but with a pancake in my pocket, I plugged on:



Of course, it's my daughter's team. They're 8-0 so far.

Another old Nikkor arrived this morning - a 24/2. Really dark and dull here today so I was reduced to testing indoors and playing with the trial of Olympus studio. It works well - though quite how they justify 99 dollars for the program beats me.

As for the lens... well not instantly blown away - actually quite hard to focus... but i will stick with it. Would be interesting to see some shots from the PL 25/1.4 and the 25mm pancake to get some kind of perspective

Thanks to everyone for supporting this thread.. it's fun ... and so it should be

cheers

There are lots of PL25/1.4 shots around this forum, and pancakes, too. My second shot a few posts ago used the 25/2.8 pancake. But if you want to check for sharp whiskers in a closeup, I'll have to go have a chat with the cat.

Klaus, those are outstanding images. I am just so envious of you folks that live in Europe :)
We're going to visit Venice and the lake district in Italy for two weeks later this year. I hadn't planned on stopping at Sirmione, but your foggy day image might get me to change my mind.

cheers

Klaus, wonderful images! and Lili this is fabulous too.

I took a walk with the lucky winner of an E-30 kit today - Alex Bampton... here's a shot from the outing.

E-30 + ZD 7-14mm f4
1/30s f/8.0 at 7.0mm iso100


The E-30 was a pleasure to use - fast, responsive, lightweight and fun!

Kind Regards

Brian

Thanks Klaus;

Verona is definitely in our plans. We are staying in Venice for 8 days and are planning to visit Padua, Vicenza and Verona on day trips by train; probably on two separate days. We're also thinking of visiting Trevisio on a day trip as well.

We're then renting a car and will spend 7 days at Lago Maggiore and Lago Como. We'll probably stop at Sirmione on the way back to the airport.

Do you have any suggestions for the lake district?

many thanks
Santo

That´s difficult. But Riva Del Garda, Sirmione, Verona (visit Giulias house ), Mantova ( must see the Cathedral they have a prob of the Jesus blood from Golgatha, so they tell ).
If Time is not a problem: Parma and a visit to the fabrique of parma ham. Not far away, a little south from Modena you find Maranello the home of the Reds, a revelation for Ferraristi :). Bergamo so sweet.... and what abou San Marino :) smallest country in Italy LOL. Its so much in that region.....San Benedetto so beautifull. The region around Mantova, Verona and Brescia is full of highlights and old Etruscian castles, walls, churches....
Modena and Maranello: 1 day
Mantova in all its beauty 1 Day
Sirminona and Riva del Grada 1 Day
Verona 1 Day
Parma 1/2 day
San Benedetto 1/2 day
Mantova Outlet : 1/2 day if you dont discuss with your wife !

Hotel: La Corte, near Mantova sud highway exit.easy to find Albergo La Corte
Via Romana Zaita, 31 - 46031 Bagnolo San Vito (MN)
