In the city

Some stolen shoots and not, from my city
Taken with the new GR and the lovely GRD original

Wonderful series. I really like the second and last ones.

Cheers,

I really like 4 and 5 - the play of the light and the shapes makes the composition intriguing. I don't understand what the reflective dots are in 5, but it's lovely the way they frame the man perfectly.
When do you prefer the GRD and when the GR ?

Thanks for the comments guys
Right now i prefer the old GRD ..
Unbelievable but true.. it give to me the special grain unattainable with the new GR.
I prefer the GR for high iso of course, because the GRD is not able to do. GR is also very very fast and the lens is amazing. It's sharp even at f2.8.
But for daylitght shoots, the GRD is perfect imho .. It's small, simple, each functions in the right place and great DOF, even at f3.5. And the jpeg file is really good, need only a bit on contrast on photoshop/lightroom.
Love it

Sorry for my bad english :?

The reflective dots are simply the rain drops on my car glass

These are really good. Are they all shot as JPEG in camera? B&W? Hi Contrast? Or 'normal' JPEG and converted to B&W in Photoshop? Or RAW even?

Normally i shoot RAW+ jpeg with the GR, and only jpeg with the GRD (1) which gives a very good and contrast b&w photos. With the GRD i set the contrast to +1 and the sharpen to -1 (in camera)
Nothing HI contrast. Just some revision in Photoshop (gradient map for a better b&w and contrast or something with silver efex pro plugin). 2 minutes for picture

* i always shoot in b&w, with the GR RAW exception

Bye
