Storm Surge
Alpa MAX, SK 150, Credo 50, 25'+ waves....
I'm sorry but I don't remember. Probably around 1/125... Thanks for your kind comments!I love this- it looks like you captured just the right moment in time with the waves crashing.
The foam and spray have just the right texture- just the right precise timed exposure.
What shutter speed did you use?
Dan,Even if technology has leaped since the 22mp fat pixel back was introduced, it still has its place. Colours are vibrant and natural yet not oversaturated. It produces lovely texture and it holds up very well to print 70x100cm prints.
Coupled with the minimalistic Alpa TC & Rodie 32 it really is beautiful little package....
Photograph below is pretty much straight from the back!
Isn't that why God invented matrix photography, view finders and HDR?Worry not, Graham!
Nine out of ten will put Resolution, Live View, and DR ahead of beautiful rendition and color.

Resolution. ... smesholution ... who really cares if you actually print. I miss my P25+ because it was almost perfect out of camera and printed such beautiful images. My higher resolution backs have been beautiful, in fact, even more beautiful, but I do feel often that I have to work to make them work as straight images.Worry not, Graham!

sadly I believe you are quite right. More is more to most, more is less to the rest of us languishing with our boots in the mud and actually printing images versus consigning them to the big bit bucket in the sky.Worry not, Graham!

:toocool:Dan,
You realize that the Phase One dealers are now actively banning Dan Lindberg tech cam images from the Aptus 5-II. They are bad for business
:thumbs:
Graham, funny you should say that, I do not know why but I have far more square images shot with the Aptus compared to the Credo. Maybe those files remind me more of my Hasselblad V days with Velvia....Dan, I'd buy another Aptus II 5 in an instant. If it had a square full frame sensor it would be even faster than an instant. Heck, square cropped is OK if the colour and tonality remains oh so beautiful.
Doing a lot of interior shot, and dealing with low iso+center filter and too much noise past 10s was a real pain, I gave up!The two main downsides of the Aptus for me is actually not so much the 22mp but rather native iso25 and noise in longish exposures. The combination gives me a hard time in many of my favorite conditions and shooting style but when the light is there...
