ABANDONED CAR
Hello guys. I have been playing around with a friends Pentax 6X7
camera. It is a beautiful medium format camera that sounds like some one is loading a shoot gun when it goes off. CanI please get some feedback on the pictures? http://www.cozmicphoto.com/CAR I was trespassing when I took the pictures but sometimes you have to do what ever t it takes to get the shoot. |

They are too busy and could have been taken equally well with 35mm so not
really a fair test, if that's what it is/was of the Pentax. Like all cameras they are tools and you have to ask yourself which is the most appropriate for the job you are doing. Indeed 6x7's go off like a shotgun. My RB67 is a beast but seldom seems the field and is used in the studio more often. I'd use my Hasselblads for outdoor medium format work just because it's lighter, quieter and besides I have a bag full of reflectors and filers as well. Try a subject that would benefit from a 6x7 format, but no doubt the camera is a joy to use. Duncan "Cozmic Photo" wrote in message oups.com... Hello guys.

CanI please get some feedback on the pictures? Way too cluttered. Too much fuzzy, indistinct stuff in the foreground. Primarily overexposed for the subject. There's one frame out of the bunch that's properly exposed (second to last). If you boosted contrast after scanning, don't. Mostly, the subject is just lost in the frame. It's either burned out, or it's surrounded by and covered with a lot of busy foliage. Enjoy playing with the Pentax. -- Central Maryland Photographer's Guild - http://www.cmpg.org Strange, Geometrical Hinges - http://sgh.rnovak.net |
