Nice photos
Where they both single shot images?
Is detail ok to blow up that big?
Cheers

Canon classic 28-70mm F2.8L

I was amazed that the quality came out so well, the night scene is one image, the black R8 was a 5 shot HDR but I ended up overlaying the car with the original image for the original look. The prints came out great

Picked up a Rokinon 14mm 2.8 ....think i'm gonna like this one.

Friend gave me this old Geiger counter. Took lots of shots, tested it out a bit, gave it a quick clean and such. More pics here : LINK

Nice; JNA radiološki detektor made by Rudi Čajavec for measuring beta and gama radiation.
Be carefull with radioactive source, which is used for calibration.

Unfortunately, i dont have the original box it came with. So I dont have that radioactive source. Cant really give it a test for now, will have to find something else radioactive

I think James Bond used one of those in Dr. No.

I wanted to pick up a camera which would be used more often in the studio or for on-site portrait shoots and keep from putting so much wear and tear on my 5D mk III so I could use it for the sports or event shoots where my 7D mk II wasn't optimal due to lens and ISO concerns. CanonPriceWatch had an excellent deal on a US warranty, white box 6D so I went for it. This is a particularly busy week, and I wanted to run the camera through some demanding tests before the return window expired. A quick check of images at low and high ISO, playing with some settings and doing MFA on my lenses took most of a day in my spare time, but I still needed to go out and do a real live photo shoot with, like, subjects and background and stuff.

I opted to shoot our roller derby practice, which would check off all the boxes: high ISO, flash, AI Servo, low light AF and difficult subject tracking. Skaters come toward the camera at anywhere from 15 to 25 MPH, zig-zag unpredictably, stop or start suddenly, cross the field of view only a few feet away and - jump. It's a lot tougher to capture the action cleanly than it looks. I didn't have more than a few minutes to set up and take a few test shots before I had to concentrate on the event itself, so this shot is hurried: two speedlights front and side, and only a couple of passes by the skater. It's not about the composition or lighting, though. It's about a 6D capturing action pretty well which my 7D sometimes struggles with. Would I use it for every event? Probably not, but nice to know it will work if I need it.

AI Servo, center point, BBAF, ISO3200, 70-200 f/2.8 @ 4.0. Oh, and the MFA isn't quite right, but part of the plan was to see how far off it was and make tweaks.
