Earlier this month I was playing around with the different formats available on the GF1 camera. When I went to a spot I thought might make a nice 16:9 proportion panorama, I disturbed a city slicker heron who took off and tooled along north up the Naugatuck river.
This camera get more intriguing.
ReplyDeleteHow many pixels are left when the image is skinnied down to 16 x 9?

Scott, it's a straight internal crop, to 4000x2280. The view, whether on the LCD or the EVF, of course reflects the crop and gives 100% framing.
ReplyDeleteThis image works for me very well. I like that iuxtaposition of the heron against the chimneys and roofs - urban landscape at its best.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Markus. It's one of those "90%" situations. Looking for something to suit the GF1's skinny format option, this looked like 90% of a picture. As I thought about framing, something startled the heron. That seemed to add at least another 5%, and I got off a few frames before he got too small to register.
