Hi all,

I am new to this. Brought my new K1 to Melbourne/Tasmania recently and would like to share some of the photos. Some have vignette issues and I have yet to crop them. Still learning.. Thanks! :):)

Welcome!

And great looking picts. :)

Australia is a treasure trove for photography indeed.
 

Thank you for your kind words =)
Indeed! Though I must say winter is a tad gloomy.. hard to get clear blue skies

Welcome on board!! do continue to share more. nice to see photos from other countries too.

Which lens did you use which causes the vignette? and also, for the astro shot, you used the K1 astrotracer?
 

Hi wirenews ,
Welcome to the family. ..

BTW do you need a screen protector for your K-1 , Ben has an extra copy which he bought from Japan. Let me know. Cheers.

Hihi,

I was using FA31. Is it normal? How can I prevent it other than taking a wider than desired photo and then crop? Forgot to add in that I was also using a ND filter for the Twelve Apostles shot.. As well as the sunrise shot at pier (I think?!)

For the stars, I did not use the astrotracer (which I should!).. Will try next time.. I did however used the Star Trails function.. Will try to upload that soon as well!

FA31 should not vignette..are you using a ND filter on top of a UV filter? suspect that your filter could be too thick which causes the vignetting..

I was using only the screw-on b+w nd filter.. Other photos seem to be fine though..

OO .. great, do share more star trails or astrotracer :)

Ah. FA31 should not give vignette as mention by Yama. Any add on lens hood onto the ND or?
