The Panasonic FZ50 alone is an excellent camera. Couple it to a Metz
flashgun and you really have just about as good a combination as most people will ever need. Total cost? Under $700 Images like this can be taken by nearly anyone with a little patience and experimentation with such an outfit. http://www.douglasjames.com.au/more-panasonic.htm Douglas |

But unlike a DSLR, a DNS will be restored to full usefulness eventually. :-) Page loaded up just fine here. Nice use of a flash diffuser. |

(grin) As for the photo, macros leave me cold unless very, very good. Roses images leave me colder, unless... And use of flash, even when (largely ineffectively) diffused by a highly professional paper bag, for such images ...? ...well, you get the picture. But that's just my opinion, and I'm sure Douglas will sell this one for the same sort of profit levels he has received for his other recently auctioned (in New York and London, doncha know) images. Jolly well done, I say!! |

Macro photography is where P/S cameras excel. Almost any P/S can get 1:1 Macro shots straight away. Most DSLRs cannot get a 1:1 macro without a separate macro lens or some other auxiliary equipment. Admittedly, with the Macro lens, a DSLR will probably outperform "most" P/S cameras but it is a hassle, an added expense and does expose the DSLR sensor to potentially troublesome dust particles. Let the flames begin... :-) Bob Williams |

G'day Howard - new to Usenet, I see!! Excellent first post. Sorry "Mark", but this "Howard" is a resident troll who nameshifts. But that's just my opinion, and I'm sure Douglas will... It is quite amazing how you just happen to be posting from Melborne and constantly posting nice things about Douglas so frequently. But that's just my opinion that it would seem that you also already know what a "sockpuppet" is, and how to troll with them. In the old days, this was called a "shill" when such seemingly third parties were used to promote a business Considering how unethical it is to use shills, it unfortunately casts a negative light on "Photography by Douglas St James". Perhaps its reflected in his business and he's struggling financially? Any idea what Douglas's real day job is? Of course, with the arrogance that he has in print on his own website, it is hardly surprising that his attitude wouldn't scare away some potential customers. And the promotional shot in question ... if one examines it closely (hint: left side) ... it has particular topical irony. -hh |
