Well, here’s an HDR-processed image from a camera that I’ve recently made a return to. The original was a jpeg – there’s no option, as this camera doesn’t support RAW files – and I’ve really enjoyed the convenience of not having to spend ages on a pc, processing RAW files from those cameras from manufacturers [...]

(Click for XXXXL version …19MB file …OK, compressed for web use) I’ve already stated before that files from my E-P1, at its lowest ISO setting, are not a million miles away from those of my Nikon D3 – as was, now sold because of that very fact ! I still use a pair of D200s, [...]

Just how much better will/can the LX5 be ? But that’s not all. There’s further speculation as of this morning that …

SMALL SENSOR – BIG DEPTH OF FIELD & DYNAMIC RANGE

Following my ‘AR’-style post of a few days ago, this is in response to a few requests for the ‘saturated’ version of the image, without the posterisation effect from the DxO FilmPack Polachrome simulation. One great advantage of small-sensor cameras – whether LX3, F200EXR, CX1 or a swathe of others – is that they always [...]

Despite all of the interesting stuff on the ‘net, I still enjoy reading a magazine – especially one that’s been really well printed onto high-quality paper …and when I say ‘reading’, I suppose I mean looking at and appreciating the photographs. Most people – around 80% of the population – respond much more to an image [...]
F200EXR – IN COLOUR

And here’s the colour version – shot on the F200EXR’s ‘Standard’ (Provia) film mode – that I’m pleased with, especially considering that I’ve not yet updated the firmware ….which apparently lends some warmth to the Auto White Balance rendering. Much more at http://nickbland.zenfolio.com ….images from F200EXR/LX3/CX1/D200/D3 …you get the idea

(Macro image from Ricoh CX1) Prompted to post this, following several recent e-mails from readers of my (various!) blogs …. hope this answers some questions for you : The LX3 is acknowledged as one of the very best compacts out there, and enjoys a huge fan base, which has perhaps grown further lately as some [...]

Well, after over 67,000 visits to the lx3 imaging site in only a couple of months, from scratch, and somehow deciding to also try to keep my other site, ricohimaging, up-to-date and of continuous interest to followers … I’ve decided to combine them into an all-encompassing new site in the same favoured format, with all [...]

Took a few compact cameras with us on a recent trip to Yorkshire & the lakes …LX3 (of course), Ricoh CX1, Panasonic TZ-3 and Fuji F100fd. Needless to say, it was the LX3 that gave the smoothest, sharpest & most detailed images of the lot, although I used it less than I would have liked as [...]
