the lx3 is almost a great street camera... it's small and the manual focus on it actually shows you your depth of field for your given aperture, allowing for accurate zone focusing!
unfortunately there's no way to completely disable the lcd, and it chugs thru battery fast. but if i turn off the camera it 1) takes a couple seconds to be able to shoot and 2) doesnt remember my last set manual focus point x . x
despite all that i got this shot which i like quite a bit
it doesnt look like this at all in person
the dither goes silly on this one (first image dithered gif second image jpg)
dead end of mall. behind a fairly busy intersection. we sat on those little tables staring forward at the plastic wall for about an hour. many passersby were confused, concerned, scared, or just plain amused. we didn't really mean to commit to the idea for so long it just sorta happened.
28mm 2.8 manual focus k mount its capable of being p sharp
surprisingly few of these left unedited in the backlog. i take this exact shot so often. i'll prbobably figure out a place online to put them all next to each other someday
the final product is nothing what the preview window looked like. experimenting with masked sections of posterization and sections of dither
and that finishes what we started back in october. there's various other photoshoots i've been avoiding touching but I think I'm ready to get em done now.
coming back to this shoot with a better idea of how to edit it
