The Weekly Collegial Show Your Photos Starting 9 December 2024 Any Brand

David,

I did see the subway/metro photos. That's interesting that it will be run by "robots", that is automation without a driver (driverless). I now pay some of bills talking to a "robot". I am sure some of you may do the same.

Subject: The New Canon R8 Camera

Here's a picture I took with the new Canon R8 this evening. It was at ISO51200. I have been more that I have to review. I thought that I would start with this one. I'm pleased at how the photo turned out.

I could have taken it with a slower shutter speed and lower ISO setting, but I like to push the boundaries with a new camera to see what it can do. It was pretty miserable with light rain and cold temperatures, but that's when you can get images like this with the reflections.

Edit: Oh, I should let you all know.... It's a straight out of the camera JPEG, and I only resized in IrfanView.

Model - Canon EOS R8
ExposureTime - 1/100 seconds
FNumber - 5
ISOSpeedRatings - 51200
ExposureBiasValue - 0
FocalLength - 40 mm
Lens Model - RF24-105mm F4-7.1 IS STM

The CR3 files might be more noisy so to say, In-camera NR is present on the Eos models😉
But even with the raw files the high ISO's are very usable with any late camera model nowadays

David and Photobygms,

Thanks for your comments on the one ISO51200 image. Again, I purposely wanted a high ISO image to test it. I have a bunch more photos to review this morning. I did not get a lot of time to review them on the computer since we were out late in the evening. This camera has the Digic X processor.

Edit: Another thing I wanted to share with you. This was the only image that I took bracketed and stacked in camera. I was able to do this hand-held. I took a total of 10 images. It took only a second or two to do. Photobygms, might want to try to do the same with his Canon R8. The stacking in the menu is called "depth composite", which is why it may be hard to find at first. I have other non-bracketed and stacked high ISO images that I can share later too.

Subject: Non-bracketed ISO51200 Image

OK, here's the non-bracketed ISO51200 image. A lot of this was done for testing purposes. Yesterday was the first time I was able to get outdoors with the new Canon R8. It looks like the fitness store had closed when I took this.
