Another round of getting used to this awesome camera. The locations on the photo are from my hometown, so they are more than familiar to me. It inspired me to capture those brutalist-esque buildings (not strictly that type, though) along with nature, which changes by the time of the day, light etc. and represents something more soft.
ISO 100, "Shade" white balance and "Chrome" FujiColor scheme.
So I’ve joined the club of happy owners of this awesome camera : ) Couldn’t wait to give it a test, especially the famous “Chrome” mode, and receive an XD card reader.
I saw lots of comments and reviews mentioning the tendency to overexpose the photos. Must admit, when looking at the display, it really does seem to be the case, so I was adjusting the exposure compensation quite often. But when I looked at the photos on my MacBook, I’ve found out it wasn’t such important thing to adjust. I hope I’ll find the perfect balance in the future.
What I was pleased by was the contrast of the photos - again, it looked a bit different on my MacBook than through camera display, but in a good way - the contrast, given the settings I mentioned in the title, seems to be acceptable and not too strong.
I’m also happy that this camera has built-in options for cropping and rotating the photos, which can help you to achieve the perfect SOOC result… : ) And yeah, I was surprised in a good way by “Voice memory” option - it can be very helpful, if you’re planning to create a travel book or blog post based on the photos you took.
