Re: Adelaide nifty fifty challengeGreat idea. Each time I put this lens on the camera, I am amazed at the sharpness, contrast etc etc.. serves me right for using a kit lens most of the time.
Cameron, we could steal this idea and use it in Sydney... Go head to head with the Adelaidians... Make it in to a competition so to speak. ![]()
Re: Adelaide nifty fifty challenge
Does serve you right for using kit glass....I think your suggestion is a good one...now I have to wait to my 50mm is returned...it is on loan to a mate for a few weeks. Cameron

No amount of processing will fix bad composition - trust me i have tried.
Re: Adelaide nifty fifty challengeA great idea Deb. Wish I could come too! Have a great time guys. Maybe we could have another one early next year??? You guys could come up to the Riverland for a weekend - Fozzie, Virgs and I will promise not to show you how to get to Gluepot.

Re: Adelaide nifty fifty challengeDeb, Great idea. I wondered whether you guys wanted to make a competition out of it.....

Re: Adelaide nifty fifty challengeHere we go with an idea:
1- Meet Adelaide Central Market at 1pm (Closes at 3pm). People, stalls, and plenty of good food and coffee etc 2- Next Stop - Cennteninal Park Cemetery. Grave stones and beautiful roses, plus good shade if it is a hot day. 3- Next Stop - Either Glenelg, Henley Beach or Semaphore. Can be decided on the day. 4- Next Stop - Port Adelaide. Heritage Buildings etc. 5- Final stop and most important. Flinders Park for wood oven Pizza at Deb's place. Last edited by fozzie on Tue Oct 27, 2009 11:21 pm, edited 1 time in total.
