Some preliminary conclusions after these tests about “best performance setting”
My objective was to find the best performance setting for outdoors for my camera.
NOTE: to convert RAF files to JPG I got much sharper results, as well as more noise, using either Lightroom 4 or TheraPee 4 (an open and free software). Setting “extreme sharpness” in the provided software also helps.
My camera shows orbs and in RAW is not as sharp as many other people X10s that show to be amazing out of the box (I am thinking to send it to the service by the way).
Sharpness, it was my main concern and with my camera got the best results using: EXR HD mode but also P mode worked ok, M size, DR 100 and speed over 1/100 if possible. Neither RAW mode nor Large size did achieve the degree of sharpness reached by this setting.
I shoot with IS in mode 2 when hand holding the camera, but I turn it OFF if using a tripod.
To avoid blowing up the highlights I set: EV -0,3, highlights low and Astia film setting.
To avoid “orbs” just keep apart from maximum aperture settings in takes with strong lights over a dark background.
I like to shoot at ISO 100 if possible, going up, even at just ISO 200, show differences. Anyway in very low light I go until ISO 800 in AUTO mode.
I like Astia film setting, colors are a little warmer but balanced, contrast and saturation are not exaggerated. Please consider that RAW mode is not available in EXR mode and/or M size and I need them.
No particular advises over AF modes, they worked perfectly, even in low light.
Shoot lower than 1/800 unless mandatory. I am not convinced about this point, but for sure it is better to go 1/600 at ISO 100 than 1/1200 at ISO 200 (shooting still objects as buildings). It means to avoid using AUTO ISO mode.
I'm testing the 'Brenizer Method', this is a panorama of 23 photos shot with a 50mm at f/1.4. Next up is portrait-test using the same method.

TEST LA, organized by the AHF Fall 2015 Interns, focused on reaching out to the Hollywood community, breaking down stigma associated with HIV/AIDS testing, and increasing awareness about the importance of knowing your status. Held on December 5, TEST LA supported the 20x20 campaign, a worldwide call to action to get 20 million people tested by 2020. Guests enjoyed free HIV testing, food, drinks, giveaways, a film screening and panel of special guests, and more!

a pregnancy test brings out many emotions whether the finale comes up positive or negative. these simple pee sticks are the miracle for some and the heart break for others. I want to use them in my 3D project and string them onto a dog leash that represents confinement and limitations. they would be nice to have but buying a bunch of them would become very expensive very fast. I wonder if I can mimic the feeling of the birth control without actually having to use one like if I painted a plus or two bars and one bar on pieces of cardboard.
This was a test shoot to try an idea. i didnt have much time to pull it off. but it looks cool. i know there are a few thing to fix.
Strobist:
I walked around the front of the car firing the flash manually. While a FireDancer from the other shots did his thing around the car. Do not try this at home. lol Power at about 1/4 . I should off done like 2 more one in the nose of the car and the back bumper. Live and learn.
Finally this photo let into the creation of this full blown set:
I was asked by a publishing house to create a book spread based on one of their previous books, and this is it!
Weird phenomenon today. A number of my shots of the white seagulls had a pink/purple tint on the edge of their wings - similar to chromatic aberration but wasn't easily fixed. Perhaps metering mode? Lens issue? Not a clue. Any suggestions??

in 1950, President Harry Truman established the Nevada Test Site in the middle of Nevada. With the Cold War descending over the World, the United States wanted a test site for nuclear weapons closer than the distant islands of the Pacific Proving Grounds, and Nevada was chosen as the location. From 1951-1992 the Nevada Test Site was the main nuclear testing location in the United States, 928 total, 100 of which were above ground. The mushroom clouds could be seen in Downtown Las Vegas, which soon became popular tourist attractions. During the above-ground tests, the US Army also analyzed survivability of various buildings, fortifications, and shelters, using high-speed cameras. A particularly bad nuclear test in 1953, Upshot-Knothole Harry (later known as "Dirty Harry"), was carried by the wind to and contaminated St. George, Utah, leading to a massive spike in malignant cancer rates (it may also have led to the deaths of many of the cast and crew of the film "The Conqueror", including actor John Wayne and actress Susan Hayward). As far as is known, surface testing stopped in 1962 and underground testing in 1992. The Nevada Test Site, occasionally opened to the public, remains highly secretive, and subcritical tests are said to continue.
Nearby is Yucca Mountain, the controversial site of the would-be National Nuclear Repository. It was approved by Congress in 2002 after 20 years of debates and litigation to house up to 70,000 metric tons of spent nuclear fuel. Nevadans as a whole were opposed to the plan, especially the 1987 "Screw Nevada Bill" that halted storage studies at other sites in Washington and Texas, though Nye County where the facilities would be located supported the effort for jobs and a direct county finance support plan. In response, Nevada created Bullfrog County, population 0, to force the funds to go to the state level. It was declared unconstitutional a year later. As for Yucca Mountain Nuclear Repository Site, it was quietly defunded in 2011, effectively putting the effort on indefinite hold.

Did a quick flash diffusion test with my Tamron 90 lens at 1:1 of a test subject using my normal coke can diffuser on a bracket mounted 430Ex vs using a diffused Opteka 600 twin macro flash ( shot here www.flickr.com/photos/lordv/5577399335/ ). Far prefer the light from the single diffused flash with it's much larger ddiffuser head.
