Advice for almost zero knowledge on camera/photography dude (me)

yes, perspective distortion if you will.

the usual landscapes then:

Is it the lens or the processing? The CA fringing looks quite bad

That is a nice photo... but somehow it still don't work for me... guess I am not a wide angle person... I can save some money then... hahahaha...

As to Spree's photo... don't know why, can't seemed to load on my system... these few days my home network seemed abit cockup, many of flickr photos cannot show, and I cannot download some of the files on the net too. Bloody hell, gonna complain to Starhub soon.

Actually... I think there is... right alone the edges of the buildings and trees...

 

[tecnica]

actually there is one thing which i really like to do with the 10-22:

panning:

cause' i feel i can include some of the background rather then just totally blur them out.

i check the RAW files, nothing there.

think i pushed the post processing too hard.

Hmm... that was interesting... Pretty nice shot there. But my anti-virus is still holding. Hahahaha...

Anyway, I think the 10-22mm is a really nice lens... I cannot afford them at the moment, and I don't use much of wide angle too. So yeah... maybe other might be more poisoned. Hahahaha.

I guess I'm starting to sound like an as*hole, sorry about that but I feel there should be ample blurring for the background for panning. For picture like this, the background distracts the viewer from the intended subject

i'm actually working towards my goal that whenever i travel abroad, i'll make sure i find the vehicle that is unique to the country and do a few panning shots.

to me, ample blurring only applies when i pan racing vehicles.

we each have differing views, i don't mind alternate comments, so no issue here.

10-22 @ 10mm.

don't mind the moving human subjects, haha.

Wow, this is beautiful

 

[rhino123]

Well... at present moment, the widest I go was 28mm... I am not a landscape person, so yeah... cannot share any pics at the moment, flickr don't load at all when I am at home. I will sneak a peek and maybe upload one or two of my photos (to poison someone here) when I have the time. hahahahaha.

Can't really see much panning done

Let's see if my shot (10-22) can pierce some Anti Virus program

Haha maybe not, this shot is not specific to 10-22, kit lens at 18mm just squat lower also can take this shot :bsmilie:

lol...trust me, I've tried using the 18 on this one....only see the corners of the houses

Anyway, spending lesser time with my 10-22 and more time on my 17-50 indoors and 55-250 during closeups...
