“Metadata Monday”

GUESS THE METADATA : FOCAL LENGTH

  • Guess the exact mm / focal length that this picture was taken at.
  • All the exif metadata has been stripped from the pictures.
  • We are using the Original stated focal length regardless of the type of camera or sensor size.
    Example. “24mm focal length”
  • We are not required to tell you what kind of camera it was taken with.

Look for posts by @jarvie @derekkind @caseygrimley @brandongarrett @jakegarn and @aweber


ABOUT THIS PICTURE - SMALL HINT OR BACKGROUND
This photo was the first time out with my new Sony A7RIII. It's a very popular hiking trail in the foothills above Ogden

THE PICTURE


PUBLIC PRIZE POOL = 1 SBD / each

  • From Each Post of a Photo Game Star
  • Prizes will go up in future weeks
    Vote and Follow and it will happen faster

TIME LIMIT

  • For this game you have 2 days to guess
  • Winners announced on Wednesday’s game (usually morning)

RULES FOR PUBLIC

  • If only one person gets the correct (Closest) focal length they will win full prize pool
  • If multiple people guess correctly (tie for 1st): 50% to first person / 50% divided between the next 5 people
  • One guess per comment
  • Two guesses per blog post
  • No editing your guess

RULES FOR PHOTO GAME STARS (This weeks posting players)

  • The “Photo Game Star” must piggyback on YOUR guesses (They can’t give hints just say who’s guess they join)
  • As with all Photo Games the weekly “Stars” are not part of the monetary awards
  • They get two guesses
  • Only one winner per post
  • 1 Photo Game point given out per post.
  • Points are added to their total for the week

STRATEGY TIP

  • We enjoy strategy as long as it creates a fun and non-destructive environment
  • Example: Perfectly acceptable to give a super compelling and yet BS reason for your first guess and then give a low key guess at the end if you are certain of the answer. Just remember if someone beats you to the answer they get the bigger prize. _Who will you trust… your intuition?
  • You can also flaunt your answer if you know you’re right and you are first … and then people will never know if you’re throwing people off your track or you really did get it right.

70mm por favor!

Winner Winner Chicken Dinner!! I'll be sending your prize money soon!

Yeehaw! Thanks dude!

50 mm!

I think perhaps he was using a Nifty Fifty ... so i'm with you on this one!

Unless he's using the Tricky Sixty Two!

I sold that one :P

I'll go for 50mm too.

I'm going with 24mm. Because that also looks like the temperature (f). Nice shot!

It was pretty cold that evening

This is harder than I thought it would be!

Much harder!

My guess would 24mm. I have a Nikkor 12-24 and this almost looks identical when I shoot at 24mm.

30mm! What does the bench say?

It says "HCNAR TSEUG RT"

Haha, yes it does. 😁

Haha looks like we're all doing these awesome scenic scenes... I should have thrown in a cool portrait. I guess this is how it works... we just don't know sometimes. And I like it

I look forward to seeing the guesses and jumping in with the winner! haha

Guessing 18mm.

I think this is longer than people are guessing, I think 170mm.

Kinda agree with the top comment. So... 65mm

Yep, I'll back you on that!

Awesome sauce on the idea.

:D

Really good guess dude.

My second guess is 35mm.

" 35mm "
