By this time of winter, I’m tired of being cooped up, and need some motivation to get out and shoot. The <a href="http://scotchtape.ductwhisky.com/2012/02/omg-lent-28-28-01.html">first project</a> was in 2012, when I shot with only a single, fixed-length lens. In 2013, I <a href="http://scotchtape.ductwhisky.com/2013/02/lent-2013-introducing-postcard-project.html">designed postcards</a>, some more serious than others. And <a href="http://scotchtape.ductwhisky.com/2014/03/you-only-get-one-shot.html">last year</a> I fired the shutter once and only once each day.</p> <p>This year, I’m pleased to announce that my dear friend <a href="http://www.ksekelsky.com/" target="_blank">K. Sekelsky</a>, an illustrator and photographer, will be collaborating with me. We’re each going to shoot a roll of film in our cameras, then we’ll trade the exposed rolls and shoot them again. Each frame will be a double exposure created serendipitously by the two of us.</p> <p>I’ve started with a roll of Superia 400 (“Process before 2007–6”) in my beloved <a href="https://www.cameraquest.com/canql17.htm" target="_blank">Canonet QL17 GIII</a>; she's got a roll of Reala 100 in her Holga 135.</p> <p>Because of the nature of this project, we won’t have anything to show you until after Easter, when we’ve had the film processed and had time to scan it and evaluate the results. Since the frames from our two cameras probably won’t line up, there will be some interesting creative decisions in how to present the finished work. I can’t wait to see what happens, and I hope you’ll be excited to see our results too!</p> Matthew Hunthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06759432311030656368noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5900815857064481870.post-26025581774680264502014-08-17T22:00:00.001-04:002014-08-17T22:00:04.607-04:00Canadian Rockies gear recap, volume 2<p><em>This is the second installment in a series <a href="http://scotchtape.ductwhisky.com/2014/08/canadian-rockies-gear-recap-volume-1.html">evaluating the utility</a> of photographic gear I took on vacation to Banff National Park and the surrounding area. In this installment, I’ll focus on the camera and lenses proper.</em></p> <ul> <li><strong><a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0099J8A2S?tag=ducwhi-20" target="_blank">Pentax K-5 II</a>: A.</strong> My APS-C DSLR performed admirably throughout the trip. It is relatively compact for its capabilities, and I love the 16 MP Sony sensor. It has a ton of dynamic range and is very forgiving in terms of exposure. The autofocus generally performed well on the trip.</li></ul> <p>As far as lenses go, I thought it would be instructive to figure out what percentage of my shots from the trip were taken with each lens. The table below lists the totals for each lens. The “keepers” are taken to be the images in <a href="https://abattoir5.com/index.php?/category/29" target="_blank">my gallery from the trip</a>.</p> <table cellspacing="1" cellpadding="2" width="525" border="2"> <tbody> <tr> <td valign="top" width="260"><strong>Lens</strong></td> <td valign="top" width="132"><strong>% of all exp.

If you’re going and don’t have one, at least consider renting one for the trip. This lens gets a slight grade reduction because it’s soft in the corners, with noticeable field curvature and astigmatism. Pricier options like the <a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B002D2YYLY?tag=ducwhi-20" target="_blank">Sigma 10–20 mm<em> f</em>/3.5</a>, <a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B003G2A71G?tag=ducwhi-20" target="_blank">Sigma 8–16 mm <em>f</em>/4.5–5.6</a>, or <a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B000B8AF9W?tag=ducwhi-20" target="_blank">Pentax 12–24 mm <em>f</em>/4</a> might yield better results, but I still consider my lens to be a great value. <li><strong><a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0001DBZKK?tag=ducwhi-20" target="_blank">Pentax DA 16–45 mm f/4</a>: A−.</strong> This versatile lens saw a great deal of use on the trip, and in the overlap region with the 10–20 mm, I <a href="https://abattoir5.com/picture.php?/633/category/29" target="_blank">prefer the 16–45 mm</a>. It also gets a light grade reduction because I think there’s something amiss with my copy, which I didn’t appreciate before the trip. The left and right edges are noticeably soft at all apertures, with the right side being worse than the left. I may send it in for servicing this winter. <li><strong><a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00005ABC5?tag=ducwhi-20" target="_blank">Pentax FA 50 mm f/1.4</a>: C.</strong> It’s a great lens, but I don’t think I ever mounted it on this trip. The zooms were more versatile, and I didn’t have any need for the fifty’s speed. At least it’s small and light. <li><strong><a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0012GHSF6?tag=ducwhi-20" target="_blank">Tamron 70–200 mm f/2.8 Di Macro</a>: A+.</strong> This was a last-minute purchase before the trip, and my gut feeling during the trip was that I could have lived without it. But looking at the images when I got home, I realized that was a totally wrong impression. This lens was a superstar, a wise purchase and great value. Tack-sharp and versatile, I used it to <a href="https://abattoir5.com/picture.php?/676/category/29" target="_blank">isolate the scenery</a> and create intimate compositions. It was also a good choice for much of the <a href="https://abattoir5.com/picture.php?/695/category/29" target="_blank">wildlife</a> that we encountered. <li><strong><a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00MMM8QMS?tag=ducwhi-20" target="_blank">Pentax FA 100 mm f/2.8 Macro</a>: D.</strong> I only used this lens to photograph a couple of moths to show my dad. I just didn’t shoot much macro on this trip, and the close-focus capabilities (and fine image quality) of the 70–200 mm would have sufficed. Though modestly sized, it’s a heavy lens, and just didn’t earn its spot on this trip. <li><strong><a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0013545U2?tag=ducwhi-20" target="_blank">Pentax DA* 300 mm f/4</a>: B.</strong> An excellent lens, I expected to use it a great deal for <a href="https://abattoir5.com/picture.php?/627/category/29" target="_blank">wildlife</a> and <a href="https://abattoir5.com/picture.php?/667/category/29" target="_blank">birds</a>. But I shot few birds, and the 70–200 mm was generally a more versatile choice for wildlife. <li><strong>Tamron 1.4x Pz-AF MC4 teleconverter: B−.</strong> I’m not sure if I used this at all; if I did, it wasn’t that much. But, it might make sense to leave the big 300 mm at home, and use the teleconverter with the 70–200 mm when necessary.</li></ul> Matthew Hunthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06759432311030656368noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5900815857064481870.post-39996013094579577522014-08-11T18:00:00.000-04:002014-08-11T18:00:02.839-04:00Canadian Rockies gear recap, volume 1<p>My June 2014 <a href="https://abattoir5.com/index.php?/category/29" target="_blank">trip to the Canadian Rockies</a> was the first time that I needed to travel by air with a large amount of photographic equipment. In the aftermath of the trip, I wanted to reflect on which items “earned” their space on the trip, and which I could have left at home.
