I suspect that his entire collection is easier to carry around than your 
250-600.

Interesting how different two lens collections can be.

21 lenses, of which the vast majority are manual focus, and nothing over 150mm.

I've only held on to 17 of the Pentax K-mount lenses I've owned over the years,
and only six of those are manual focus.


Here's my list (also sorted widest first):

DA  10-17/3.5-4.5 Fish-Eye
DA* 16-50/2.8
DA  18-55/3.5-5.6
M   28/2.8
FA  28-105/4.6
M   40-80/2.8-4
A   50/1.7
A   50/1.4
F   50/1.7
FA  50/1.4
DA* 50-135/2.8
DA* 60-250/4
FA* 80-200/2.8
FA  80-320/4.5-5.6
A   135/2.8
A*  300/2.8
FA* 250-600/5.6

Three fondly-remembered lenses I've owned but parted with:
M   50/1.4
M   80-200/4.5
A*  200/2.8


I don't have quite as meny lenses on my shelf as Juan does,
but his collection is definitely a lot easier to carry around!

Re: PESO - PanESO - Grand Teton

2022-01-14 Thread Rob Studdert
Nice work Igor, what software did you use to stitch the images? I know
that LR, though quite capable and by far the best option to assemble
RAW image files, does currently have a maximum pixel dimension
(vertically or horizontally) of around 65000px and a maximum overall
size of 500Mpx total therefore limiting the max image size to around
64000x8000px.

I did see that original post re-hosting panoramic images but forgot to
reply. It is difficult to display them in a meaningful way on-line,
the most practical option I found was the Gigapan site. It's a little
long in the tooth, clunky and seems to be fairly niche these days but
it does still work, I put four images up about 5 years back and they
still appear to be accessible.

Cheers,

Re: GESO (7): Art Museum Winter Walk

2022-01-14 Thread ann sanfedele
It's a nice magazine spread - tells the story of the place nicely.. on 
an individual level I particularly like the third one where you got the 
person waliking sort of in the arms of the tree... would skip the first 
one though it starts the narrative.. too cramped..  The lake shot makes 
me want to be there

YT video on Mark C.'s snowflakes book

2022-01-14 Thread Igor PDML-StR




I just came across this video that covers Mark's wonderful book that I am 
sure most if not all PDMLers remember:

https://youtu.be/withL4pVw3w
Mark becomes a living classic! :-)


(This is the book if someone has forgotten - with great reviews:

A very nice set!
I especially enjoy the photos of animals. The one with hippo stands out 
from the rest for me.

PESO - PanESO - Grand Teton

2022-01-14 Thread Igor PDML-StR



I've written this message almost 1.5 years ago, but never sent it...
I did this back in August of 2020, but than I was struggling with the 
presentation of the panoramic photos (here is the thread:
https://www.mail-archive.com/pdml@pdml.net/msg780894.html ), and I've 
never followed up on that.

So, I am just presenting it as is, as a huge Jpeg file.

Hi All,

Well, I've done it, - a panoramic photo that I don't know how to present.
This is the largest ever (pixel-wise) pano, as it was the first time I couldn't 
save it as JPEG because of the pixel size limit for JPEG.


Somewhere online, I've found references that JPEG couldn't be larger than some 
65,xxx pixels in any direction. (It is probably less than 2^16-1=65536-1 = 
65535, which is 2 bytes)
But that seems to be incorrect  (or maybe it is an additional limitation 
imposed by the software?). I couldn't save as JPEG even the image that was less 
than 32765 px.
I was able to save as Jpeg only when I took that number down to about 
16,000.



Grand Teton.
