ISO 1600 renders a nice balance of grain and texture, at least for my tastes.

Adam / huntjump: i totally agree. i find that 1600 iso is very useable and gives an unique look. Any suggestions on the film type settings ?

Adam, nice!

I always shot the R-D1 @ ISO 800 and 1600 for that very reason.
I also pushed the ISO3200 further regularly to 3200/6400 in low light.

Ray, I never shot JPG, but shot RAW and developed in Lightroom.
With the huge advances in Lightroom from Lr2, that I used back then with the R-D1 to Lr4, the files should look a lot better now with high ISO settings.

… oh and Ray, great shot with a beautiful look ;-)

Ray, are you only using the out of camera .jpegs? Although they are good, there is so much more scope available using the raws with epson raw or adobe camera raw.

 

[raytoei@gmail.com]

yeah...i am using jpg, but modded in ps and saved as tif.
i am awre of the advantages of raw.
currently i am mucking around with the film type,
very curious Low Saturation/Contrast vs High Contrast
effects.
any comments on the film types ?

When you say iso 3200 and 6400, are you just doing as you would with film, underexposing at capture and then pushing it up in post?

I cant speak for others, but I generally shoot at ISO 1600 and push in LR. However, the R-D1 also can be set -2EV to +2EV, so you can shoot 3200 equivalent, essentially when utilizing those on the shutter dial

all take by 15 heliar ltm , the the zone focusing at f8 🙂

Wonderful shots guys. That last one is excellent Ziengler.

I don't really like to alter too much with photoshop. But I was trying some things to get a bit of a vintage feel, like a colored in photo of the WW1 period (An Autochrome-look would be a cool effect too)

Excellent idea!

andephotographic, I just underexposed by a stop or two, while shooting for ISO1600 and pushed in post.
