Here is another Tair-11a candid shot. This is a very well known busker in Brisbane. He is mostly blind, and used to have a very old guide dog as his companion. Unfortunately the guide dog isnt around anymore, but he still busks in the Queen St mall.

Candid Panning

A panning shot of a speedy walker ;-) Took the DSLR out for some street shots yesterday instead of the little Canon. IQ difference is really something else, lol

Canon is super grainy at ISO 200, this shot at ISO 800 is way better.

Taken with the Pentax K200D and Pentax M 28mm f2.8 at f11, using zone focus method for focusing.

Another street shot from yesterday, taken from the hip with the Canon Powershot A590 IS running CHDK, shot in RAW. Was taken at 5.8mm (35mm @ 35mm equivalent), ISO 200, f3.5, 1/500″.

I have discovered that the Manual Focus option gets reset as soon as the display goes blank on this camera, will try to work that out…

Today I think I will take the DSLR out for some street shots, provided the rain holds off. I will take the 28mm prime, set to hyperfocal and see what I can come up with.

Processing was the same as the shot I posted last night – Hold On To Your Hat
