Great shots everyone!

Grabbed this shot set at 10mm at f10 I believe and flash was also used to up the shadows

I dont use this lens often but is always fun to have :)

I was just saying that I used a Polarizer for this shot which makes a big difference. Thought I'd mention it because it is fairly easy to recognize in sunny shots but not so much in overcast images.

Oh, you mean you stuck a CPL on the lens! :lol:

Which CPL, and how do they work on the 10-22? I'm considering one...

Its a Hoya Pro1, you twist the front of it to eliminate reflections. It's pretty cool, get one.

I have two of those for other lenses (different sizes). I hesitated on getting one for 10-22 as I'd heard of uneven results with SWA.

Has anyone who uses CPL with 10-22mm had any problems or issues? I have seen some example where sky looked pretty bad - could be user error.

[thomascanty]

I've had pretty poor results using a CPL with this lens at 10mm. It's too wide for the filter and the color of the sky gets very uneven across the entire picture.

[Collin85]

i think i might pick up one of these before i head to japan and china in a month!

Oh, for sure. You'd be doing your photography a huge disservice otherwise. ;)

Oh my, those are some absolutely fantastic shots. When you say layering of multiple exposures, are you just referring to HDR/tone mapping, or a more 'custom' workflow in Photoshop? Did you do anything in particular to get the green to pop out more?

Again, fantastic shots. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you very much! No, it isn't HDR. I just used the sky from one exposure and the rest of the image is from another exposure but it is all blended "by hand" and not through the PS command or Photomatix. Yes, the actual green was more yellow so it was adjusted for contrast, color and levels and also I sharpen only certain parts of the image and not the entire image all together. I also darken and lighten the image with the dodge and burn brush tools as I see it. I should post the RAW shot for kicks, it is pretty ugly.

I know what you mean and if it is a 10mm shot, I just don't use one. Anything over 18mm is okay though; you don't get the uneven sky. ND Grads work better IMO. But for controlling reflections and bringing out detail in the shadows, CPL works great. For example, in the above shots, the stones in the foreground were reflecting a lot of light and without CPL, the color and texture would have been pretty flat.

Excuse the ignorance, but what is the difference between this and HDR?

[ALaS]

Lets see some portraits or scenes with this lens!

[pixel_junkie]

Excuse the ignorance, but what is the difference between this and HDR?

When people talk about HDR, I imagine they are talking about a few bracketed images that get blended in Photomatix. I also use bracketing but if needed, blend my images by hand using selective masking.

CPL works really well on this lens for getting rid of reflections so you can see below the water.

Great advice, thanks for sharing pixel_junkie. I'm mesmerized by the green, so please excuse me if I'm battering on about it! So when you say 'adjusted', how did you select the green? I mean, it's everywhere on those rocks! Did you use magic wand (which seems awfully tedious), or did you use Selective Color or something.

Heck, I think many here would love it if you posted the RAW! Or if you prefer not to, even just the vanilla straight-out-of-camera JPEG.

I also like the vignetting you've thrown in. You should print and frame those - I would. :D

I'm hoping Canon puts out at least a $50-$70 rebate on the EF-S 10-22 this fall! Rebates should be about 2-3 weeks out if Canon follows the same approximate dates as they've done the past couple of years.

Its a Hoya Pro1, you twist the front of it to eliminate reflections. It's pretty cool, get one.

i have one too, its great for landscape. i have one that is built for wide angles such as the 10-22. it lacks a front thread, so you can't mount a lens cap while it is on, though.

I had a B&W that didn't have the front thread and bothered me that I couldn't use my regular CANON cap so now I use Hoya, it is a good one. Call me crazy, but it seemed to ad a green hue also. Don't have that problem with my Hoya, I like it.

Question, how old is this lens model? are there other 10-22's or is the only one?

[tynger]

Question, how old is this lens model? are there other 10-22's or is the only one?

It's about 4 years old. This is the only one by Canon that's been released as far as I know. I've just ordered a copy so I hope there's not a new model on the horizon just yet.

matt....can you give some exif for the last shot and your technique.... very interesting shot!

looks like you clipped out the house and added a sky background???

Manual, ISO 500, f5.6, 1/40, 18 mm with CPL

Shot raw with post in LR2 (lots of fiddling with fill light, clarity, and vibrance). Distortion correction, noise reduction, and sharpening in elements.

The sky was added. I wrestled with the bushes on the left and right. There were several trees in the original that are gone now -- I couldn't get the blend right. For the clients purposes, this works fine, but I would love to learn how to do a better job of blending the bushes with the replaced sky.

Key to this shot was:

1) Time -- Golden hour, about 30 minutes before sunset (notice the sunlight on the garage roof)

2) Position -- Taken standing on the roof of my truck. The lot falls forward quite a bit, so I think it makes the house look bigger when I got more parallel with it.

Thanks for the interest!

My first outing with my 10-22. Shame about the dead tree in the background across one turbine but couldn't get a better angle.
Loving all these shots!
Pixel junkie...could you pretty please email me that info too...that green is stunning and I am trying to decide whether I need Photomatix or if I can go it alone. Thanks!
BTW...I used a Hoya Pro 1 Digital UV filter on the lens for this shot and stacked a plain Hoya Polarizer on top of that. It caused very heavy vignetting at the corners at 10mm. I will try it next time without the UV as I think stacking the two jutted it out too much. I found the polarizer worked evenly on the skies, but made the sky almost too dark blue in some shots. Was also getting down to 1/60th, but this shot was hand held.
Standard Hoya 77mm Circ Polariser here in Australia $88....Hoya Pro 1 Digital Circ Polariser $260. Thought it was worth trying the cheapy, but imagine the Pro one is slimmer too so may be necessary.

[mattograph]

Nice, Hazey.

If you could get that set up with a stock agency that services the US, you could probably pick up some sales. We love the idea of windfarms and the environment right now, although it doesn't look like we have the money to pay for either!

Thanks Mattograph...I wouldn't have the first clue how to submit to stock agencies..but it's a real compliment to me that you think the image is nice enough to do so.:)
Skanter...I thought about that but decided I would probably mess it up. However I may have a play. The leaf in the front left hand corner distracts me too so may try cloning that too.

Better quality, more flexibility with a wide-angle lens also with a telophoto lens. (i only have a 17-85).

[mikeassk]

Better quality, more flexibility with a wide-angle lens also with a telophoto lens. (i only have a 17-85).

you dont get much "quality" at that extreme of a zoom. It wouldnt make any sense to make it "better" because they already have a market for it. "better" would cost around 1000$+ and that is what you would want to spend on an L lens which would force you to upgrade to a different body.
CANON already thought of this stuff.

[Collin85]

Ohh! these pictures want me to get this lens so bad, too bad there isn't a upgraded version of this lens like MKII or something.

:lol: The first thing you think about when seeing shots you like with a lens is that you wish the lens could be upgraded?

Dude, stop focusing on gear so much (I think I've said this to you many times before). If you like this lens, go buy it and start taking photos with it. Per-pixel sharpness is only a minor part of the formula for a successful photograph. When I first got into photography, I did the usual rounds of worrying about these kinds of things, but that got me nowhere. Now it's all composition, shooting techniques and post-process for me. I don't worry about gear anymore. What did I get out of this? Much better photos.

Per-pixel sharpness is only a minor part of the formula for a successful photograph. When I first got into photography, I did the usual rounds of worrying about these kinds of things, but that got me nowhere. Now it's all composition, shooting techniques and post-process for me. I don't worry about gear anymore. What did I get out of this? Much better photos.

He's 100% right. Stop worrying about your gear and practice your technique. gear won't make you better. Practicing technique and composition will.

My first outing with my 10-22. Shame about the dead tree in the background across one turbine but couldn't get a better angle.
Loving all these shots!
Pixel junkie...could you pretty please email me that info too...that green is stunning and I am trying to decide whether I need Photomatix or if I can go it alone. Thanks!
BTW...I used a Hoya Pro 1 Digital UV filter on the lens for this shot and stacked a plain Hoya Polarizer on top of that. It caused very heavy vignetting at the corners at 10mm. I will try it next time without the UV as I think stacking the two jutted it out too much. I found the polarizer worked evenly on the skies, but made the sky almost too dark blue in some shots. Was also getting down to 1/60th, but this shot was hand held.
Standard Hoya 77mm Circ Polariser here in Australia $88....Hoya Pro 1 Digital Circ Polariser $260. Thought it was worth trying the cheapy, but imagine the Pro one is slimmer too so may be necessary.

Amazing photo! Since you have editing on I took the tree out and tweeked the colors.

I just repurchased this lens. I had a copy and sold it a year ago. I have kicked myself for selling it ever since. I tried the new Tokina 11-16 but prefer this lens better.

This is from the old lens I sold:

I will post some new stuff when I get the new lens.

Hi Jesse.Thanks for the kind words..appreciated.:cool:
Def looks much better without the tree..I still haven't done it yet but will.
On my callibrated monitor....your colours look exactly the same as the original.

It looks like he bumped up the saturation a little bit. The sky is a richer blue.

Web i gotta say awsome job editing! it looks like the tree was never tehre! and IMO the skys look nice now!

What's your problem with the lens?

Yeah, really. I was so surprised to see that. This is a gem of a lens; an L without the red ring.

Sounds a bit like a troll, making that comment in a thread with hundreds of beautiful photos taken with the lens.

His photo wasn't so hot - maybe he got a lemon, or never learned to use it properly?

[Domino81]

What's your problem with the lens?

All the pictures I have when I used this lens were too distorted for me. Little sharper than my Sigma 12-24, but I also wasn't a fan at all of the colors & highlights.

You'd actually be surprised at the bokeh from this lens. All you have to do is get really really close (sometimes a little too close). Here are some other examples of 10-22 bokeh

Supamps,

I think that bee is getting irritated with a big lens up in its face. Nice shots.

[funkin]

Shot at 10mm, probably a little too close for comfort!

22mm at the other extreme (close up of a palm tree)...

How about a car and a bridge- not really had much time to get to know this lens but i am impressed with it thus far. http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3028/2962508444_4178807c5f_b.jpg

For all those that are still not convinced how amazing this lens can get here is what It can do at 10 mm.

Original version can be found in my gallery in the signature.

Now go and buy this little gem and start enjoying it! :)

if anyone in the UK feels like they need to sell this lens let me know ;) lol, never going to happen

[billy_boy]

Defintely true about the great bokeh.. the only condition being that you have to be quite close to the subject :) :

A water shot i took yesterday,
i think at 12 mm...http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3025/2966523520_001ea686b8_o.jpg

[Max F]

Dont' shoot past f11 if you want really sharp. Really you should stick with f8 if you want sharp shots and only do f11 if there is something really close you want to have in focus.

Plus its hard to beat the 50mm for sharpness - not really fair.

[HSK]

wow, another great, maybe a niche lens for crop bodies.
