Bored.. Playing with the G1

[usayit]

Bored today... just playing around with my (new to me) Panasonic G1 and some manual lenses. Its too freakin cold out side! Just getting to know this camera... pretty fun.

#1 is the G1 + Kmount adapter + 90mm Tamron Macro + 1:1 teleconverter on a tripod. My old faded 1923 "one cent" penny. Brought out some of the texture through the years in Lightroom.

#2 is the typical Quarter using the same setup. Straight from camera and converted.

#3 is my son just hanging around on the couch with his comfort blanket. This was shot at almost complete dark. G1 + M-mount adapter + Noctilux shot at f/1 @ ISO 1600. Lightroom to cut down the color noise. the The G1 doesn't do very well at these high ISOs. I actually don't expect it to do well with the smallish sensor.. still better than my LX3.

#4 Went to a school concert (not as the official photog). They let me take a few photos from the side as long as I didn't disturb the other photogs. I always have my rangefinder with me which isn't the right tool in these situations. I happen to have the G1 too which turned my Summarit 90mm f/2.5 into FOV of 180mm.... Still had to shoot @ ISO 640. I don't think the results are too bad.
