I finally had a chance to get out and test the D810 with a long exposure. I like the result so far over the D600. This is full resolution for your viewing pleasure. Yes, I did some post = Contrast/highlights and Noise reduction. - but not much. The images that come out of the D810 are pretty clean to begin with.
I used a Samyang 14mm f/2.8 for the shot.
I processed this from the original .jpg that came out of the cam. When I received this cam there was no way to process RAW.

From this past weekend's test shoot, just a quick export without any serious editing. This was my first real shoot with the Nikon D300 - so far I'm much happier with the color response than I've been with previous bodies.
Lighting was a single Profoto Acute2 head in a Mola Demi beauty dish, feathered forward to even out the coverage.
Bij het naderende onweer viel me deze wolk op.
Hij veranderde heel snel van vorm, dus haast geboden.
Een minuut later zag het er heel anders uit en regende het.

Tests from a NASA event at Summit Point Raceway for my 7D coupled with my 300mm and 70-200. Also had my 5D in hand to make sure it was dialed-in. Finally figured the AF System to work for how I shoot. Really would like to make the 7D work for me. Still undecided though :-/
I built a car for my Crash Test Dummy; heavily inspired [color-wise, anyway] by one from the Test Track queue. This was another quick build [an all-nighter] between larger projects.
Check out all of the pictures at MOCpages.
this is one of my first tests at a real holga pano. my arms totally fell asleep while shooting this- even though i was using a mini tripod and shutter release cable mod. LOL. four shots at about 1.5 minutes per exposure.
i might post another pano test or two... if there is any interest.
In this image, ESA’s new Solar Orbiter spacecraft is seen during preparations for a vibration test campaign at the IABG facility in Ottobrunn, Germany, in March 2019.
While the craft is at Ottobrunn, the Solar Orbiter mission control team located at ESA’s ESOC mission control centre in Darmstadt, Germany, is getting ready to establish data links to the satellite.
The live links, dubbed ‘system validation tests’, will see the flight team connect their mission control system to the spacecraft, as they will in future when the control systems on ground ‘talk’ to the spacecraft in orbit via radio signals transmitted by a ground station antenna.
“The prime objective of the system validation tests for any spacecraft is to validate that the mission control system can correctly send and receive telecommands to the satellite,” says ESA’s Jose-Luis Pellon-Bailon.
“The tests also confirm that the spacecraft launch configuration is as expected by the post-launch Flight Control Procedures.”
An initial series of system validation tests were run last summer, when Solar Orbiter was still at its manufacturer, Airbus Defence & Space UK, in Stevenage.
“Since then, it has moved to Ottobrunn where we will run the next series of tests in early May and early August, lasting nine days in total and running around the clock,” says Jose-Luis.
“Solar Orbiter will then move to the US for launch from Cape Canaveral, where we will run a final series of connection tests at the end of November.”
Solar Orbiter will be launched in 2020 to study how the Sun creates and controls the heliosphere, the vast bubble of charged particles blown by the solar wind into the interstellar medium.
How we make a space mission
ESA is Europe’s space agency, enabling its 22 Member States to achieve results that no individual nation can match. ESA combines space mission development with supporting labs, test and operational facilities plus in-house experts covering every aspect of space, supported through the Agency’s Basic Activities.

Test sewing for dynamite dollfie dream body ^^ still gotta work out the kinks with the groin part ^^;
It is as I had feared. When I shot the first test roll and heard and felt the grinding of the mechanisms inside the camera body, which gave me the distinct impression of wanting to be left alone to die in peace, I thought "Oy vey. This is not a good thing."
And when I saw the scans of the processed film and saw that the film transport apparently doesn't work reliably after the 24th shot or so, I shook my head in dismay and thought: "This is definitely not a good thing."
But then I took a good look at those shots that had come out well, I sat down heavily, in amazement and I thought: "Cor. This is a good thing."
Sharpness, contrast, colour rendering, creamy bokeh, it's all there.
So, now what? I think I can work around that film transport problem by just using 24 exposure rolls, if I can confirm that the problem will turn up only if the wound up roll is too thick.
By the way, a Contarex Special with a Planar 1:2 50mm lens was what astronaut Ed White used during his EVA on the Gemini IV flight in June 1965.

So, for awhile now I've wanted to make a moc out of the metru green armor shells I have from Ogrum and Chi Cragger(F&I) , since those are the only three Constraction sets to have Metru Green armor shells. So working with the very limited amount of metru green, I came up with this guy. Not much to say here really in terms of background/actual character info.. Just basically a bulky, enthusiastic fighter.
Also wanted to test out a connection method with the skrall armor... Think it came out ok.
Also gearbox credit goes to Logan... I believe... Pretty sure it was one of his designs.

ich habe bei einer Geranie (diese Art habe ich noch nie gesehen - gibt es in verschiedenen Farben ) mit meiner Kamera ein bißchen herumexperimentiert und das ist dabei herausgekommen
I was at a Geranium (this way I've never seen - are available in different colors) with a little playing around with my camera and that is to come out

Testing today this old A-mount lens with my a7ii and LA-EA4 adapter. Tamron AF Zoom 28-200mm F3.8-5.6 Aspherical
Random test shot from my newly acquired Voigtländer Bessamatic II (aka De Luxe model 1962-1967) fitted with a 50mm f2.0 Septon. It holds up pretty well considering that this photo is taken at a freezing temperature of -12 ºC. I used Ilford Delta 400 developed in HC-110 B.
I used this camera: flic.kr/p/2nff6k9

This was a test roll for a Konica C35 I bought for parts. As it turned out the part (rewind assembly) was incompatible with the C35 I was trying to fix. Still, as I took the two rewind knobs apart I figured out how to fix my original camera so the parts camera did its job.
It was sold for parts because it had been dropped and the beauty ring around the lens had been pushed in a bit. I'm guessing the owner then though the lens was off-kilter and I thought it might be as well but since everything else worked on the camera I put a roll of throw-away film through it. These are the results.
