hmmm ok ill try to get them up tomm. btw does increasing ISO or low light affect sharpness?
 

because it has no technical value. i see no point in that posting. what does it show? noise? lens sharpness? CA?

are you comparing image quality with another lens or sensor? is there a 100% crop? is there exif info provided so other forumers can discuss about the technical aspects of the picture?

no.

Wow... So strict...
 

Hey Clown, I thought this thread was to post 500d pictures.
Granted I didn't put in the exif and it's not 100 % crop but if you had just indicated to me, I wud repost and not make the same mistake again.
But if u think it's really something that merits deletion from this thread. Then go ahead, it doesn't bother me anyway.

what's wrong with this forum ? It's information sharing, what's with all this restriction? newbie cannot comment? newbie cannot post? is this forum only for the expert? or self proclaimed expert?
kinda snobbish if you ask me...

if this thread is not in the correct folder, move it..

WE WANT TO SEE MORE PHOTOS FROM LOCALS..
 

Hey Mod , why was my Capt Am pic and post deleted?

I think this shot shows that it has handled highlights quite well. The white star is easy to have blown highlights because the rest of the image is dark and the camera would have tried to increase exposure of the whole image (evaluative). I am guessing you are not using spot metering?

EDIT: looking at it again, it seems you have fired a flash too (shadows and the bright spot on the star).
 

Without looking at the exif I think you have lots of handshake when your ISO decreases. This is likely due to the lower shutter speed. Looks like you have a really dark kitchen. Can't really tell the ISO noise handling in these shots as the handshake blurs would have blurred out the noise as well.

Hi Guy,

Just like to share this photo after reading this post, I took my 500d to my kitchen to have a few shot. Setting on 'P' mode with canon 50mm f1.8 fix lens on AF at various 'ISO'. Actually my kitchen is quite dark 8/100% of the light coming in from the window the right and this light is no direct light but light from the outside corridor reflected on a wall. First I have difficult to lock focus, so I aim my camera to the wall that is bright lock the focus and aim back to the kitchen for every shots make.

I am not so good on photographing, below photos are directly upload from my camera without editing and I found that the photo is much brighter than the actual lighting in my kitchen.

yes, post 500D pics that highlights the ability of the sensor (ISO noise, sharpness, etc), not to see how well your picture is taken and attract comments like "gd picture", etc.

Yes you are correct about the eval metering, should I have used spot instead? I did have problems with the flash bouncing off the star. I felt that the 500d does not have the underexposed problem with my previous 400d.
 

i think mine got deleted for the same reasons too eh? oh well, no matter though i didn't find any rules regarding posting pictures in this thread.

to make it easier for newbie like me, maybe can have something like that at the start of the thread:

"All pictures posted shall have technical value and able to show image quality such as noise, lens sharpness, CA etc. Otherwise, the picture posted is to show the comparison in terms of image quality with another lens or sensor. You shall also state if the picture is a 100% crop and provide all exif info of the pictures."

LOL. ;p

the galleries are there for a reason.
 

this is an eqiupment discussion forum, not picture critique forum.
pictures should go to the photo galleries.

only technical images and discussions are allowed here.

Actually he did say this early on in thread 4. My post also got deleted.:embrass:
 

i understand that this might cause some discomfort to forumers who grew used to posting everyday shots here but the decision has been made to keep the equipment discussion forums more focussed on technical discussions.

need you guys help to keep the forum nice and clean for all to use k? =)

and i'm sure it'll be better for pictures to be shared with the rest of the forum when it's posted in the galleries section.
 

no problem for me. but i am sure in time to come, there will be even newer newbies who come in and start posting pictures in this section again. so having some rules in sticky would be good and save yourself and the other mods from stepping in to clean up over and over again. cheerioos. ;p
 

Hi History, just curious, have u tried also 40D? How does it compare with 40D?
Have seen your guitar photos- but I feel the photos are not sharp- may i know what lens u using? Kit?
Wats the ISO for the shots?
Is the low light shooting iq better than 40D?
TIA bro.

Hey Clown,

Thanks for clarification. Think there's a lot more new members ever since the 500D heat up. :P Is it possible to shift this thread to the gallery area or need me to edit any post or thread details here? :)

thanks. we all wanna share good stuff and we'll be co-operative with u as well.

be blessed!

LOL. I've not tried 40D I think. Unless unknowingly.....
For the guitar photos - partly coz it's my first day using it and i use 'M' mode - fully manual.
So the shots are not as sharp. using kit lens (doesn't mean it's lousy).

more pics on.....

most shots using 'P' mode. So it will select the appropriate aperture and shutter speed.
I think also used landscape for some. :P trying out still.

Be Blessed!

Nice photo.. but shooting at f/8 is hardly a test of the bokeh... unless of coz you want to see the bokeh at f/8. Anyway, think she needs a nappy change after this shot :p

:bsmilie: you're right, she was complaining about the wet diaper after that shoot. In general, I quite like the bokeh from this len on 500D.
