Purple Fringe with Tamron 70-300 Di LD Macro
2008-05-20 04:19:00 I try to have a simple write up on how I handle purple fringe (colored fringes along edges on areas of high contrast.) This happens more often on Tamron 70-300 Di LD Macro but it does not stop me from finding the lens dependable as the cost of the lens is so inexpensive and I just learn to work around the problems. In general, I pay more attention to the shots made with this lensAvoid backlit area with high contrastUse smaller aperture. Use f/8.0 instead of f/5.6 for long end in the zoomUse higher iso instead of bigger apertureAnd the following picture is sample of purple fringe around the rock area as well as the off focus area with purple color in the bokehAnd without photoshop and other commercial tools, I manage to use the following free software tools:XnView An free utility for viewing and converting graphic files.Accepts Photoshop pluginPFreeA free photoshop purple fringe pluginOnce I get PFree plugin to properly install on my XnView, I can call and execute the plugin on th...

LEGO iPhone unboxing is a macro-marvellous
2008-04-25 15:58:00 Considering the handset has been available since last June, it’s hard to imagine an unboxing ceremony that could bring anything new to the table. That hasn’t stopped photographer ntr23, though; he actually got up on top of the table, with a team of handy LEGO men to unwrap his new 8GB toy. What might seem like a one-person job to us is a mammoth task for a minifig. The best laid plans, though, can always backfire, and there’s a touch-&-go situation with a worker trapped under the bulk of Apple’s cellphone. Thankfully teamwork saves the day; let this be a lesson to all tech reporters not to attempt an unboxing without wearing a hard hat. [via Pocket-lint]

Post processing are done in PicasaInitial Impressions:Very capable close up work with this zoom with 1:2 magnification in long end of the zoom from 180mm to 300mmAmazingly sharp for its price and that it is a zoom lens, I paid only $90 for a used copy of this zoom. New one only costs $129.00 as of this writingColor are rich and have good contrast and detailsAF is effective but a bit slow in the macro zoom range.AF.C is working reasonably well with little bug around flowersThough manual focus ring has a large focus throw, it is difficult to use manual focus as the macro only become available in 180mm to 300mm in which the zoom extends to a greater length making it difficult and awkward to focus hand held manually.I used f/8.0 throughout the test and use negative Ev compensation to reduce purple fringing in scenes with high co...

The Russian Bear Awakens: A Global Macro View
2008-03-25 14:18:00 The 1998 Russian financial crisis proved a tipping point of sorts. Vladimir Putin appeared from nowhere to become Yeltsin’s successor as president in 1999. His dramatic catapulting from obscure KGB spook to president of the largest country in the world indicates that powerful forces within Russia were very unhappy with the gangsters and cowboy capitalists running things. Putin quickly set about breaking the political power of the oligarchs and gangsters and reappropriating assets he regards as having been stolen from the Russian state, and he has succeeded. Every oligarch either fled into exile, came to terms with Putin and brought their business interests in line with government goals, or wound up in jail and had their assets repossessed by force.

Tamron 70-300 f/4.0-5.6 Di LD Macro Test Shots
2008-03-25 03:03:00 I had my first chance to test a used copy of Tamron 70-300 Di Macro that I bought it used from Pentaxforums marketplace. The lens that I got is almost like new and I just tested the lens with K10D over a past weekend. It is sad and unsettled that I have returned my K10D for a defect found in the shutter with no spring load. With inputs from others, it may be my inexperience with K10D shutter.All test shots are done in bright mode with the wrong adjustment on +2 to contrast and saturation and hence the high contrast and saturation on the test shots. I am quite happy with the purchase and the lens perform well for me especially for the longer range that I can use in the zoo. It will compete with my Pentax DA 50-200 for sure. Purple fringing are seen in a couple of shots with high contrast and I am told to use a smaller aperture to minimize purple fringe with this lens.Related:Reaction to photozone.de on Pentax DA 50-200Tamron 28-75 Di Test Shots

How the Micro can effect your view of the Macro
2008-03-21 09:18:00 I already used the photo to yer left for a post on 6th March. It was taken in the area where I live. Hadn’t seen any NF graffiti for years, it was quite popular in the late 70’s early 80’s (during the time of political and economic crisis in Britain) and appeared on walls all over the place. When I first saw this recent piece, I wasn’t too surprised or shocked, after all in last years local council elections there was a BNP candidate standing for election in my ward. (click on the labels tag at the bottom of this post to read about that) My initial reaction to the graffiti was to ring up the council and get it’s crack team of ’Graffiti Busters’ to come and remove it. Then I thought I wonder what would happen if I did nothing about it? So for a bit of an ‘experiment’ that’s exactly what I did; nothing. I did think of getting a spray can and writing SCUM next to it, but the law of sod made me think I’d probably get caught, so I bottled it. The purpose of ‘the e...
