Official Panasonic GF1 Photo Sharing Thread

Wow Eric looks pretty sinister there!

Another gig pic from my work - musician is a very talented young singer/songwriter called Katy Pickles. Taken with the Canon FD 50mm 1.8 I got off ebay.

Typical Lancaster half term day. Damp and miserable.
Took Charlie up to Williamson's Park for a Slush but they dont server them in winter :thumbsdown:

Had to make do with a taking a pic of Ashton Memorial instead.
Dynamic B&W, slight crop and tweak of the jpg.

The crop looks lovely oldboy2000 - are some of the white flowers a little over-exposed in the uncropped pic though?

Very nice Zoidberg. This thread is getting a bit Morecambe-heavy though :LOL:

love the sunsets.
When i was taking the pic of the "metal bird" yesterday, some one was doing a photo shoot on the beach in front of the midland hotel. Poor lass would have been freezing, stood on the beach in a bikini, trying to pretend it was summer.:bonk:

Really like the bokeh'd Midland in the background on that bird pic.

Here's yet another Morecambe shot - I kind of ripped off one of yours Zoidberg. ;)

Cheers, thats the one bird ive not taken any pics of. Need to get the ones on the roundabouts next.

The Midland is such a good building to photo though, classic looks and lovely lines.
Could be a good meeting point, coffee in the Rotunda bar then take pics.
 
A couple from today on Moel Famau

I'm really loving playing with this little camera but the lack of a viewfinder was apparent today in the bright sun, point and hope seemed the best approach

Interesting - was it totally useless? did you adjust the brightness at all?

Great photos evryone by the way (y)
 
Conditions were pretty bright - I really missed a pair of sunglasses. From the camera I was getting more of a reflection off my face than seeing what it was showing me - brightness changes didn't seem to affect it to much.

Having said that I really doubt any screen would have shown in those conditions without some kind of shade. I've had my D300 in easier conditions and struggled to review images.

Any tips?

You could buy the EVF but it's expensive and the resolution isn't great apparently.

I have gone for one of these - not got it yet but I will post up how I get on with it.

Finally managed to get up to the Lakes today. Light was mostly fairly flat but I caught a nice spell just on my way home.

Cheers - like the snowy pics btw. I found pretty much the same as you with the screen on a very bright day out in the Yorkshire Dales, which is what prompted me to order the clearviewer.

Can't quite bring myself to spend £170 on the EVF at the moment.

Only just noticed this one - I like it. What background is it taken against and is there any PS involved?

Agreed - number 3 is the clear winner though

Cheers bloater - think these are some of my favourite pics I've taken so far. :)

Thanks for the comments.

Simple set up as I was just playing around in my study. Used a desk lamp to light Homer up, stood him on a piece of white card and then snapped away. There were a lot of rejects...

Only PS involved was a little Lightroom - cropped picture, corrected the white balance and added a light vignette.
 
Another from little old me!
