How about a quick whip around for a new camera for David Oh ... and a new 'puter ... I still run XP (SP3) on a meg of (DDR1) RAM ... Cheap camera and lens. Camera body's around 40,000 Baht now and the lens that took the shot above is around 25,000 Baht. Total kit comes to around 350,000 Baht. In the World of digital cameras, it's a poor mans kit. There's posters on here who own 350,000 Baht lenses. As in one lens. I won't say who, but a certain person here owns a Leica Noctilux 50mm f/1.0.

Kit selection definitely comes into it and that's a very important part of the overall skills set in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David48 Posted November 23, 2013 Share Posted November 23, 2013 Life on the Farm as I know it and capture it ... I tried running the Photo enhancer over this and I got a weird colour spectrum and lot's of contrast ... don't know why? So, this is the (slightly cropped) original photo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I won't say who, but a certain person here owns a Leica Noctilux 50mm f/1.0. I believe someone here owns a Leica 50mm f/.95 also - $10,995 USD. With lenses like those though you need a really good sensor (aka expensive body) to make the most of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My first (but hopefully not last) contribution is reflective of one type of farming that is quite prevalent in Chiang Rai.
