I spent today in bright and sunny north Norfolk with the marriage of extremes, the 90-280SL zoom on the TL2. Infuriatingly, I forgot to take the EVF, so I was handholding it at arms length, which I don't recommend. Image quality is great, and OIS works well, though it doesn't make the LCD screen view any steadier.. The TL2's bug (I can't believe it is anything else) whereby image stabilisation switches off every time the camera is turned off or goes to sleep meant that I lost a number of shots, but nothing I couldn't make up. 

 

There was one bit of anomalous behaviour that I couldn't work out. When I stopped right down to f/22 and shooting in A-mode and AutoISO, on pressing the shutter the EVF would suddenly white out, take a long exposure (1sec?) and take a totally white shot. Switching to manual and reasonable exposure settings  (including fixed ISO) the same thing would happen, as if it wasn't in manual at all. Pulling back to f/21 or wider, everything was fine. It's as if the smallest aperture triggers a bug in the firmware

 

With most of this series I was shooting stopped well down in the bright light, trying to get a good foreshortening effect.

This first one, teasels at King's Lynn, is the exception.

Little post processing to either of them - the monochrome effect is just from shooting into the sun.

"Oops!" at Wells-Next-The-Sea

 

 

After this, imagine a short break for the best fish & chips in East Anglia.

And to finish with, one of my favourite views on the coast: Morston Quay, looking east towards Cley.

Some Italian goodies that I would like to share with my forum friends!   :p

Wonderful pictures.  Slightly underexposed for my taste but it adds to the drama I think :-)

You were in my building :-).  - The project was designed by our office and I was in charge of it.

 

I keep wanting to suggest that we should meet some time since you also seem to live in Singapore, but keep forgetting.  Also I travel too much (in Delhi right now).  But perhaps some time soon.

Florence; on the footsteps of Dante and Dan Brown!

 

Well, I was surprised and disappointed; Florence was not as scary as described in Dante and Brown “Inferno”. But instead, a gorgeous, peaceful, beautiful and colorful city. You can breathe “art” in every corner of streets, and taste “culture” even at the smallest kiosks! I was also surprisingly pleased to even see tourists, from every possible part of the world, enjoying and appreciating their discoveries. Something that is not always obvious in some other very touristic places of the globe. 

 

For more shots, please feel free to visit my Florence gallery: http://objectif.zenfolio.com/p320567503#h98bca231
