In Reply to: Are you from Texas Steve? posted by R B on April 30, 2001 at 08:11:00:
Rod,>>>..Your photos at 2160 x 1440 pixels are what us Aussies would call huge on our little 17" monitors. I would have thought 800 x 600 pixels were more web friendly.<<<
Well, those are 100% pixels on the 2160 x 1440 BUT have nasty ol' jpg compression (level 7 or 8 on Adobe Photoshop). (Said in good humor) If ya want i can send you the 4+ MB EACH raw files :-)
>>> After scrolling the photos around in my web browser to see it all, the sharpness is incredible for a stage lit shot the camera & lenses must be really good (as is the photographer, but I'm not going to tell you that, if you're from Texas) hehe.<<<A most humble thanks. Actually i am from norther US, though have travelled so much guess i am not "from" anywhere as am ALWAYS going TO somewhere else. US, UK, Germany, Italy, Singapore, South America, Switzerland, France... It's all good dude so long as there's food, women and cigars AND MOST IMPORTANT... fast cars and music.
>>>What size lens did you use? I'm told that digital cameras have a large depth of field; does this apply on 300mm & above?<<<As the Canon D30 is now my mainstay, there are two key lenses employed. The 28-135 f/3.5-5.6 IS USM and the 70-200 f/2.8L USM. Needless to say, the 70-200L is an awesome lens. While it lacks IS (image stabilization) the lower f allows for a faster shutter speed. The 28-135 gives GOBS of depth in the 28 region of course... then again so does the 70-200. All depends... It comes down to the lighting and subject matter and effect/depth/etc desired, your shutter speed, the lens opening... This separates those "point n' shooters" from those looking for a more flexible solution.
>>>Great photos Steve thanks for posting them<<<BTW: i left some of the photos large as a friend who i gave permission to print out at 5x7 and also 8x10. He said at 8x10 it was still very usable, though 5x7 is where i'd peg the jpg COMPRESSED photos at MAXIMUM. Some OTHER photos of the Grammy Awads not seen anywhere yet will appear in the next issue of Ultimate Audio magazine.
Enjoy the music (Godsmack "Whatever" at kinda loud volume levels right now. NOT directed to you, just feel like rasing a bit of h-ll today. End of the month and all)"

"And I wonder day to day
I don't like you anyway
I don't need your sh-t today
Your pathetic in your own way
I feel for you
Better f--kin' go away
I will behave
Better f--kin' go awayI'm doing the best I ever did
I'm doing the best that I can
I'm doing the best I ever didI don't need to fantasize
You are my pets all the time
I don't mind if you go blind
You get what you get
Until you're through with my lifeI feel for you
Better f--kin' go away
I will behave
You better go away
I feel for you
Better f--kin' go away
I will behave
You better go away
I'm doing the best I ever did
I'm doing the best that I can
I'm doing the best I ever did
Now go away
I'm doing the best I ever did
I'm doing the best that I can
I'm doing the best I ever did
Now go away..."
