    Review of the year 2025

    Some cracking images there, thanks for including one of mine. I've been coming here since I first picked up a camera 15 years ago, I'm more of a browser than a poster, but thanks to the guys keeping this place running behind the scenes, I've picked a lot up from here over the years. All the...

    L-Mount Alliance Owners Thread

    I switched to Lumix from Sony about 3 and a half years ago now, and haven't looked back. The S5 and now S5iiE ergonomics are perfect, but it was the Lumix colour science that was the deal breaker.

    L-Mount Alliance Owners Thread

    It's been a cracking workhorse of a lens for the last 3 and a half years, I have zero complaints about it that's for sure! :)

    Panasonic LUMIX S 100-500mm F/5-7.1 Lens

    I just had a look and the stag and hinds photo was ISO250 and has had no noise reduction.

    Panasonic LUMIX S 100-500mm F/5-7.1 Lens

    Thanks Richard, I was just shooting in manual, the single stag at ISO10,000 was noisy but has only been denoised in Lightroom, I believe there are better noise reduction programs out there, but it's certainly acceptable even at full resolution, good enough for me as a landscaper anyhow :) It's...

    Panasonic LUMIX S 100-500mm F/5-7.1 Lens

    Just processed this one now, far from ideal conditions, pouring down and zero light, shot at 500mm, f/7.1, ISO10,000 on the S1iiE

    Panasonic LUMIX S 100-500mm F/5-7.1 Lens

    I have it, I've not done much with it yet other than a few stag shots and a wee bit of landscape photography last week, so only processed one shot from it but looked at others. First impressions are really good though! Used on an S1iiE

    Are Tripods Dead Now Too?

    I wouldn't be without my tripod. Not only does it keep it all nice and sharp, more importantly it slows me down and makes me think much more about refining the composition that drew my eye in the first place. Saying that, with the latest IBIS, I do find myself enjoying just wandering about...

    Panasonic 70-300mm F4.5-5.6 OIS S

    I've just pre-ordered the new Lumix S 100-500. I fancied the Sigma 150-600 but the size of that beast put me off too.

    L-Mount Alliance Owners Thread

    It's been a while since I, or indeed anyone else has been in here by the looks of things. I've just bought an S1iiE body to compliment my original S5, and also just getting into a bit of bug photography, which was partly the reason to upgrade to something with much better AF... A few recent...

    Panasonic 70-300mm F4.5-5.6 OIS S

    I have this lens used on the S5 too and it's a fantastic piece of glass. It's so sharp throughout the zoom range and from wide open. It's a bit on the heavy side (if that's a factor, it doesn't bother me) and I love it! I'm predominantly a land and seascape shooter.

    A Favourite Photo (of your own) ?

    At the moment, this one from last month, but I can't truly decide or settle on one single image as I like to think it'll be the next one I take :D

    A depressing list

    One more thing to add to that list, especially as a landscaper.... luck! Yeah you make your own luck by being there when you can be, but it's still a gamble! When it pays off though.... :D

    Returning to the fold.
