hi kev,

check out the 3.0x tele package instead....46mm thread...i've been looking around ebay too....not yet decided coz $$ no enough, wife is pregnant and milk powder gone up 10% hahaha....

i've checked with the seller, he confirmed the package can be used with LX3

3.0x tele, filters, etc....

eih... i noe LX3 is great n fun la.

but.... i personally feel that investments(by buying extra lens, caps n adapters) not tat worth it lo.
although i noe can get cheap from ebay.

but count count.... n see..
LX3 rm1600 + further investments in caps, lens, adapters = dslr price

investment in dslr lens cannot compare with this la.
not that i say cannot invest.
but i think shud keep it minimal.

i learn tis frm working at cam shops.
selling those lens, adapters, filters, etc......

is tat a tele lens? got wide angle?
how's the add on performing?? on the cam??

haha... but dslr's size is bigger than lx3... which u can't buy...
and.. dslr lens investment.. i can't afford it... haa

it adds more fun to lx3, more effects... im lazy to edit it in photoshop...
and guess what, i got a new filter.... sepia/vintage filter.. im surprise that lx3 dont have it..! (even my se k750i has it.. haha)

and i hv tried the palarizer filter.. it's awesome! gonna post it tonight..




that's 3.0x tele and wide angle...

woke up quite early today, just couldnt wait for saturday to test the polarizer..
went down to the river next to my office, and surprisingly, saw a swam family... (used to see them almost every morning)..
and they swim nearby the river bank...!

i was too excited and running late as well, just can test for a while...
and learning to use the PL as well... I was using manual and need to adjust all the properties properly because the polarizer will dim the lens...

here you go...

u get diff range mar. 72mm- 180mm  tongue.gif

so, if u zoomed full 2.5x.. you will get 180mm instead of 60mm? (with x3 tele)
how about wide angle..? how do u calculate, for example 0.45x wide angle...
24mm x 0.45 = 12.6mm? hahaha

if you can read chinese... look at this mod for lx3.. ahha
http://www.dchome.net/viewthread.php?tid=5...&extra=page%3D1


and.. the real power of lx3... according to the photographer, all the photos are taken with LX3 and some of the photos are cropped and PS..
look at the bokeh effect... that's unbelievable!

The good thing in australia is, the wildlife wont run away even you stand close to them. (well some of them)...
The ant was the most hilarious, it frozen like a model and let you take photo, it's about hald inch long...

Still, have no chance to take night shoot. Sunshine even at 8pm at the moment, and I'm living far away from the city.. : (

the first one.. over vibrant.. agree with u.. haha

the second one, I didnt edit the color, I think I was using dynamic sat+2.. lx3 is sensitive to red color... :/

Then using PS create the fake bokeh effect by adding a blurred background and mask the first layer...
no time for manual focus at that moment.. it was a random shot... so, no time to play around..

Now, I like the dynamic B&W... it's really good..
