Moody NYC in B & W on a GF1

[pipedreamer]

Hi All,
I had a recent weekend in New York. In between rain, i managed to shoot a few photos. This was our 3rd trip so we mostly stayed out of midtown and spent our time in Brooklyn and Harlem. The photos were shot RAW on my lovely new Panasonic GF1/20mm f1.7 and post processed to be suitably moody in Lightroom -

Cheers,

Nice pics. I have a G1 and have to say Panasonic do have some nice b&w setings, I use smooth quite a lot.

these look fantastic

Are you using the LCD or an EVF on it, just trying to work out how much I need to find down the back of the sofa to buy one

Superb!

Just checked your Flickr....there's some lovely stuff on there too.

I use the EVF around 50% of the time. Somehow years using an SLR means that i'm just more comfortable with my eye up to the camera. There is lots of talk about the resolution of the EVF not being up to scratch but i find it just fine for framing and composition.

Cheers,

Peter.

Excellent, I was a bit wary about dropping £170-odd on one if it was no use, but having tried the Olympus with it's viewfnder I know that I'd only use the GF if I got one for that.

I like them all. Really nice and the black and white suits the subject matter. That GF1 sure is sharp. Tasty.

Great B&W. Really like all of these but #1&2 are the favs for me.

All look very nice, particularly the first one. Wish I had the extra cash to afford a GF1, would love to carry one of these around when I'm touristing.

Cracking photo's, looking at purchasing the GF1 as a travel camera.

i like all of them, i think the absense of cars and people makes it seemvery apocalyptic almost reminds me of i am legend (the last picture)
