Day Light

GXR A12-M, f4.0, 1/4000, ISO 200, RAW, 42mm (Ricoh GR f2.8 28mm L)

A very mixed day with snow, sunshine, rain and snow and sunshine at the same time. Took this on my way back from lunch, not a details of St. Paul's but I think it still kind of fits with the loose theme for this week.

Street Light

GXR A12-M, f2.8, 1/60, ISO 2691, RAW, 42mm (Ricoh GR f2.8 28mm L)

The GR lens is really a great lens to have, it's very sharp, has a great character and just looks great on the GXR. It's not perfect for low light but can do a decent enough job if it's not too dark.

Light Up

GRD IV, f2.8, 1/125, ISO 800, RAW

Been a dull and grey day so did not do much or take many pictures, took this one when going for a walk to get a pint.

Just a Lamp

GF1, f1.7, 1/1000, ISO 200, JPG, 70mm (Fujinan f1.7 35mm c-mount)

Today, I finally got my broadband internet connection installed adnd could catch up with my blog posting.

But not only that, I also received my new c-mount lens to play around with and so far it looks like great fun. Using it wide open with focus at infinity gives almost a tilt-shift effect so this is cool.

Lights in the Dark

Took this on a walk this evening and quite like it. Nothing too special but simple.
I cropped it to the 4:3 format, added some noise and used some fill light to make the leaves on the side more visible.

Today Ricoh has announced the new Ricoh CX1 camera. This is a new camera series that seems to follow the R10 and is aimed at consumers. It has some interesting specs with a 9.29MP 1/2.3″ CMOS sensor and a new high resolution LCD screen offering 920,000 pixels at VGA resolution (!!), 4 fps continuous shooting and in-camera HDR.
I was disapointed to see that there are no manual modes or RAW though. It looks very interesting though and will be worth a look. Need to ask Ricoh if I can get a review model.
I did not have time to take pictures but looking through Rui's photos on Flickr and with the CX1 looking like a R10 successor I ´went along and took a few abstract pictures with the R10. This is the one I like best because it's simple, although it is not really as good as Rui's work.
