This is the west shore of the Susquehanna, across from downtown Harrisburg.

By chance, does anyone need a Canon 55-250 IS lens or know anyone who wants a starter DSLR kit? I know I shouldn't be hawking stuff here but I'm not really getting any bites elsewhere. Let me know.

Have you given eBay a try? I'd take a look at what they are going for on there. I just sold a couple of lenses and came out pretty good.
I actually sold a 70-200 F4 for more than you could have bought a new one for at the same time. Buyer beware in that case. Couldn't actually believe the buyer went as high as they did.

So I got interested in HDR (High Dynamic Range) photography and just bought the software. Here's my first effort. It's a combination of 3 bracketed shots taken near sunset. I made a mistake and set the bracketing to +3 0 -3 stops. The software suggests +2 0 -2 bracketing. But nevertheless, I like it. I'll upload a color shot of the same scene when I get one ready. It's a nice effect. It lightens up the shadows and really makes the highlights pop.

What software are you using?

10MPlayer 09-04-2013 08:07 PM

Here's the enhanced color version. I like a more natural look. This is a little overdone. (oops, slightly diff. version - same day same setup - just diff. view)

Below is the un-enhanced picture as shot >>>

That pic has a nice feel to it.
I actually just started playing with HDR myself this weekend. The two pics above were run through the HDR Pro plug-in in Photoshop Cs5. I only went +/-1 stop.

Is that plug-in built-in or is it third-party?

I was thinking the shot of what looks like the Capitol building might have been enhanced a bit. It's a pretty shot.

It's my last resort since they double dip when it comes to fees. :tiphat:

Thanks!
Yeah, there's no way I could have exposed one compromise of a shot that would show the detail of the Capitol building, the bridge and the reflections of the water without one part or another being too dark or light.

Just out of curiosity, why are you selling/upgrading gear?

I was counting on unemployment to cover the gap while I was looking for a new job. They haven't paid a dime so I need to cover a gap somehow. It sucks.

Thats a damn shame, cuz we all know how much you were loving photography.

It's only a temporary setback. I plan on getting a better set up once things get back to normal.

Anyone here run a Canon EF-S 10-22mm? I'm looking for a wide angle lens. The new Sigma 18-35mm f1.8 looks interesting too, but I'm leaning toward the Canon.

Boost_lee 09-07-2013 12:42 PM

I use a sigma 10-20 which is similar. No complaints from me

That is a great lens. I had one, but my son Colin talked me out of it.

I use a Canon 16-35 2.8 now.

I'm leery on the Sigma. I have a 24-70 F2.8 Sigma, it's not as sharp as I would like when comparing to a similar Canon lens.

The reviews I've read say the 10-22 is L glass performance and quality without the telltale L-glass red ring. People like it that much. Unfortunately the local shop doesn't have one that try. :ugh2:

What you write is true. Everyone I have talked to who has experience with the lens will tell you it is "L" quality. I agree with them. I would take the chance and get one without trying it -- it is that good.

LunaZ 09-07-2013 02:30 PM

You could always rent one and try it out.
Also, B&H has an easy to live with return policy which would be cheaper than a rental should you decide you don't like it.
