Clifton Springs in Medium Format

in photofeed •  6 years ago 

I recently obtained a medium format camera for the weekend. If you don't know what medium format is, it's a camera with a sensor about 2.5 times the size of a full frame DSLR! This means instead of shooting with around 25MP resolution, I'm shooting with 100MP. This is a massive increase in available details and printing size (as well as overall file size!)

Once I'm done looking at the photos a bit more I'll do a more in-depth post about the camera but for the moment here is one of my shots and the 100% zoom. I invite you to imagine how big the image must be compared to your monitor size when looking at the zoomed in crop.

Holy moly it’s like you can just stare and keep walking

God, your photos are always so nice!

Thank you 😁. Your comments and support are always so nice!

Wow these shots are amazing, the pink is so pretty!

It's nice when waking up early is rewarded 😁

A beautiful photo .... it would be a good motive for a wall wallpaper 👌 I also like the second photo very well.

Would be better as a print than a wallpaper 😉

Yes, maybe it would be better... No matter how ... definitely a very nice motive to let the thoughts wander.📸👌

wowwww! excellent compo.

Thank you 😊

Sweet! Talk about a dream camera!

It is very heavy though! Not really a walking around travel camera

That's part of the sex appeal - lol.

Ammazing.........

Thank you!

So you making billboards, posters, large canvases with this thing then? :D That sounds like it would make some decent sized files. But damn you'd be able to do a lot with them!

Only 100mb RAW files 😉. Or 3gb once I'm done editing!

This would be overkill for a billboard. Billboards are ver low resolution because they are viewed from so far away.
It would make a very nice detailed fine art print at 2m wide

Epic. Just need a spare 50k !

Love to know how it was to shoot.

It is a little pricey. But it's not over priced. The weight makes it tricky to move around but a lot of the features make it easy to shoot and get great exposures.

I want to do a proper write up on it. I need to devote some Steemit time each day I think

Yes. Hard to manage time on social media. It's a love hate relationship for most of us I think.

I love both of these. Resteemed.

Thanks! It is the same photo though ;)

Yeah, honestly not sure what I was thinking when I typed that! I definitely knew it was the same picture haha!

Well done shot! Good timing and framing.

Thanks heaps!

The camera matters not a jot as your images would probably be good with a bit of 35mm film in a matchbox with a pinhole in the front of it. I think you do the one thing that i find it hardest to do, and that's actually get to the right places at the right time. Damn i need motivation and you might just give it to me with more images like this.

right place at the right time is just a numbers game. The more you get out the more good conditions you get.

Having tried MF, does your DSLR feel a little underwhelming now, or are you just happy to not be buying as many new hard drives? ;)
