Australian SailGP race sailboat blasts by Queen Mary 2. The Cowes Regatta is this week. I think this is the first season of SailGP, racing 50' spec racers, with hydrofoil technology. This specific boat broke a new speed record last Saturday, clocking a 50.22-knot record. I would estimate that it's cruising in excess of 40-mph in this image:

Can't wait to see your report. I'll probably order a IV after the RAW conversion program is available for DxO (I hate Phase I). The big worry is the AF speed. Come to think of it, I'll probably wait to see what happens with the a9II. If they up the resolution a bit, keep 20-fps and improve AF, that'll be a no brainier for me.

Bighorn sheep trio, Glacier National Park, 85 mm prime (the longest I brought during the trip).

Taken from 20 feet away. 1800 pixel selection out of the full 6000X4000 original. I'll be curious what the RIV could do here at well over twice the resolution.

Friend wanted me to photoshop his patrol car as if it had bags. Still learning with PS

dcstep · 08-15-2019, 07:51 AM

ED, I think that the 200-600mm past its test, with flying colors.

I'm on a cruise right now, but hope to have my 600/f4, when I get home on Monday. Pretty excited.

Daimler sports car. I don't know much about this marque. It sounded like it had either a six or a small eight.

Gangster police

The question of why a sheriff truck would be on bags aside, think the front wheel shadow might need a little help coming more forward — right now it looks like it's turned out slightly because I think the shadow was unchanged from its original ride height. Think with the camber it'd have, it would look slightly different.

Sweet shot. Very nice.

Friend got a new car so he wanted me to take some "before" pictures. Here is a roller from the set

Itsed65 · 08-17-2019, 07:06 PM

It's been really hot here, so extra long tele shots tend to get distorted. 840mm
