I took the NX30 for a walk.

Hello,
            As I've told you in previous posts, I intend doing some Macro/close up work with the NX30. just to show what it can do with a prime lens fitted. Well this is my first post on this subject. All the images that are shown on this page have been taken using the excellent Samsung Schneider KREUZNACH D-XENON, f2.8 MACRO lens. Yes guys, I know, (before anybody tries to notify me of the fact), this lens is actually a Pentax lens. But the specifications remain exactly the same, this is an excellent performer, and it was
  re-badged for Samsung, when Samsung and Pentax teamed up together to make DSLR's. Now back to the walk. We walked for a couple of miles up the valley. taking pics of things that caught my eye. These images are not necessarily of any great significance or value. They are just shots that I grabbed to show things like the effects of DOF, or foliage when using jpg, (to illustrate the lack of smearing which is common in a lot of cameras), and Samsung colours.

              In the first image. I found a blow fly, sitting on a leaf. Now remember, I was using a manual lens here so I had to focus, set the aperture, and get the shot. I only managed the one pic as the fly would not sit for any more.  :-(


Below is a 100% crop of that fly.


Not to shabby, as they say. But I wish I could have had another two or three shots, but no luck, the fly flew.   ;-)
That's a;; for now gys, take care one and all. Regards Twm.
