USA photos with a Seiko R-D1 (according to Flickr)

[nf3996]

I'm just back from a holiday in the USA (North Carolina, Virginia and Connecticut), mostly visiting relatives but with some time for photography too. I took my R-D1 with me, plus three Voigtlander lenses: 15/4.5, 28/1.9 and 50/1.5. I found the 50mm lens to be my most used, and I think I only used the 15mm on a handful of occasions. I'm still working through my files, but I've put a few on my new Flickr account at www.flickr.com/photos/alansimpson if anyone is interested in seeing them. Using Flickr is new to me, so I hope it works . . .

Interestingly, when you open up a photo there, the 'small print' says that they were taken on a Seiko R-D1 camera! I presume that's generated automatically by the EXIF date. It also gets the dates wrong - they were taken on several different dates, but Flickr shows the date when I last worked on them in Photoshop.

Looks like you got some nice shots, there.

The full, official name of Epson is Seiko Epson, so the EXIF is basically accurate. I think the software that you use to process your raw files will affect the EXIF--when I used Epson's raw processor, the camera was always just a plain "R-D1." Now that I use Capture 1, it says "Seiko R-D1."
