hurrr..... any additional lens to your lx3?

no additions... just plain vanilla LX3. The fly was very cooperative and didn't fly away... I was really really close

"bokeh" is like colour.
For example you see a withering tree, and the green leaves are not such a strong green colour. So you might make a comment "the colour of the leaves is quite pale", which is similar to a comment like "the bokeh is quite ugly"
You can't achieve colour, in the same way that you can't achieve bokeh. It's like... a property of the image.
:dunno: Not sure if i'm explaining it right. Someone help me!![]()

this is the most obedient bug i can find.. and still no fight with the above one. haha. nice one gerald
Thanks
It is amazing to me what the LX3 can do. When I got it, I tested it in many areas and found it a really good compact camera. It may not achieve great bokeh in portrait photos, but all in all, a great camera!
Anyway, here is one of my fave shots of my fly fren :bsmilie:

Wow nice,.. did you do this with any Macro attachment / filters? e.g Raynox?
Nope...no attachments... just the LX3...![]()
Just curious:
How close was the camera to the subject? And did you crop the image?
I was at the min focus distance. I switched to manual focus, went to min focus distance, then moved the camera to get the focus. After getting the pic, I cropped it to the pic that you see![]()
thanks for sharing. OK, i need to try to work with manual focusing.
ireallydontlikepink, I thought you have gotten yourself another equipment liao? the D80? already saw some of your pics, Kekekeke
anyway, Gerald pic was awesome, I still can't believe why that fly so obedient, must be a camwhoring fly, at home I wanna swat one also so hard, just move my hands they fly liao ! :bsmilie::bsmilie::bsmilie::bsmilie:
