THANKS WILLThanks Helen but it was Brian who posted those particular ones. Mine were the Tube carriage, bluebells and rhododendron flowers.
Brian,The Sigma is great... provided you don't shoot it side by side with an Olympus for Colour
Seriously, I have a way to go yet before I'm happy with my colour management for the Sigma DP1.
Oh, all right cam - I'll forgive you . . . but none of that proposing to other people stuff - okay?but i dubbed you out of love...

Well - I've 'standardised' on Aperture now - having spent the last two years fiddling about. Which means no Aperture, no Camera as far as I'm concerned. Actually, I don't mind as long as the RAW files can be converted to DNG as Aperture now does a grand job with standard dng files.Hi Jono,
the DP1 is definitely worth adding to your arsenal in due course - when 3rd party RAW support arrives (nope, no .dng conversion available) and the price drops below £350
In the meantime, I'm happy to be the crash test dummy for you, this time
I'm still smarting a little from that offer - did anyone actually get one from them? (that price was far below cost). It would have been worth my while driving there - but I'd already shelled out.By the way, I *very* nearly bought a D3 + 14-24mm f2.8 a couple of days ago (saw the dpreview 30% discount tip) - but pulled back from the brink, when I considered the long term view... it would be just as much of a niche camera as the DP1 for me.
Well, if Olympus can make 4/3 sensors work like FF, then I'd guess that Nikon will be able to make dust protection that worksThere's just nothing to compete with 4/3rds for the long term serious photographer imho... when you consider the time & expense of collecting the right glass - the sensors will catch up with FF performance (but with dust protection that works!)
Actually, I don't mind that so much - what I DO mind is how people respond when you point a car battery at them - we had a dinner party the other night, and as usual I was allowed the camera for 1 minute and 15 seconds. I grabbed the D3 first, and everyone basically hid under the table . . . took the M8 and everyone relaxed and forgot about me.I didn't really feel like lugging something the size of a car battery around again either!:ROTFL:
Now you can afford an M8 :ROTFL::ROTFL:On the bright side, I felt great - saved myself a £3000 expense
Hmmm... I'm not sure that I could get used to the rangefinder - I do like TTL OVF, and AF being available - even if I don't always use them!Now you can afford an M8 :ROTFL::ROTFL:
Cam, while you're waiting for the sun, would you mind if I sent you the X3F file... having a go at bringing these reds under control? I'd love to see what you can do?Brian,
i often shoot in Sunlight and then tame down the yellow cast with CS3's AutoColor (which i then fade to the appropriate level -- by eye) or pull down/up the individual levels in Hue/Saturation and can damned near the "natural" look (not that i'm really ever after that ). it's minor tweaking and i think you'd be happy with it.
no problemo.Cam, while you're waiting for the sun, would you mind if I sent you the X3F file... having a go at bringing these reds under control? I'd love to see what you can do?
