The S1Rii does trains

[pdk42]

I've been super busy since I got my S1Rii but today I took it along to a visit to the GWSR Railway - a heritage line that runs from Broadway to Cheltenham in the Cotswolds.

I'm super, super, super impressed both with the camera and the images. I think the files from it have a wonderful feel to them - great colours and very, very malleable. In particular, I can get fantastic dynamic range out of them. A number of times I shot a 5-EV burst but in PP I managed to get the result I wanted from only one of the shots.

Anyhow, here are a few samples. All with the 24-105 or 70-200 f4. Hope you enjoy them!

Great to see some rail photos !!

Thanks Paul, a really great set of photos of a wonderful heritage train operation in the UK. I love the attention to detail they have at the railway stations, and of course the locomotives and rolling stock look fantastic. A real step back in time.

Glad to hear the S1Rii is exceeding expectations!

Those are some lovely pics; I really want to know the story behind many of them. (What’s that red machine in the second pic in the last post, for example?)

I’m also very glad the camera’s working out for you; looks like you’re having a ball with it.
