yeah EF 100mm f/2.8 Macro USM. Only got it two days ago so those were the first couple shots I took with it.

Lovely shots slim!!

hmm i would have thought with that lens the pics would have been much sharper? Or is it just my screen?

that would be me being superduper shakey.. wasnt using a tripod so you can imagine focusing that close has a lot of shake, and the stabaliser can only do so much..

if I get any time this weekend I will take it out with a tripod and play around.

Absolutely fantastic shots. What settings did you use for the second one down? Looks great! :P

Thanks mate,

I set the ISO at 100. And the shutter speed to 6.8 (I think thats what the shutter speed was). Im still getting used to the camera, just a Fuji Finepix S5800

I was lucky enough to get it at a bit of a steal, 400 directly from canon, once in a life time. lol.. I was just about to spend the same amount on cheaper macro lens at a shop, so luckily I didnt.

Just another from one my group the other day.

I just cant wait for summer to get some more colour. Of course to get some more bugs out there as well hahah...

Btw since edj0001 didnt post a august shot, i thought i post a old shot too :D

Only August shots please.

Another contribution :D Unedited again, I dont have any programs to do anything so thats how it came off the camera. thats why its not totally straight etc. Was standing on a pile of dirt in an industrial estate. Shakey footing!

Sammeh, Tripod needed. :)

Are those flowers at your place or somewhere else? hehe I can see you getting into gardening so you've got more plants to photograph. :)

yeah I was looking around at tripods last weekend. Dan has talked me in to a manfroto, so just need some extra cash.. Yep thats from my backyard and yeah, funnily enough I was looking in to planting some stuff in the backyard :(

p.s Only August photos Ian! :( moved ur post to July thread

    • I feel I should re-iterate. The above picture is the only option available in the software and the blurb from HP Tuners I quoted earlier is the only way to add data to it and that's the description they offer as to how to figure it out. The only fields available is the blank box after (Input/ ) and the box right before = Output. Those are the only numbers that can be entered.
    • No, your formula is arse backwards. Mine is totally different to yours, and is the one I said was bang on at 50 and 150. I'll put your data into Excel (actually it already is, chart it and fit a linear fit to it, aiming to make it evenly wrong across the whole span. But not now. Other things to do first.
    • God damnit. The only option I actually have in the software is the one that is screenshotted. I am glad that I at least got it right... for those two points. Would it actually change anything if I chose/used 80C and 120C as the two points instead? My brain wants to imagine the formula put into HPtuners would be the same equation, otherwise none of this makes sense to me, unless: 1) The formula you put into VCM Scanner/HPTuners is always linear 2) The two points/input pairs are only arbitrary to choose (as the documentation implies) IF the actual scaling of the sensor is linear. then 3) If the scaling is not linear, the two points you choose matter a great deal, because the formula will draw a line between those two points only.
    • Nah, that is hella wrong. If I do a simple linear between 150°C (0.407v) and 50°C (2.98v) I get the formula Temperature = -38.8651*voltage + 165.8181 It is perfectly correct at 50 and 150, but it is as much as 20° out in the region of 110°C, because the actual data is significantly non-linear there. It is no more than 4° out down at the lowest temperatures, but is is seriously shit almost everywhere. I cannot believe that the instruction is to do a 2 point linear fit. I would say the method I used previously would have to be better.
