First images with the 645D

The story so far…

Charged battery.

Turned on camera.

Set language (to English), set date, set time.

Inserted  32GB SanDisk Extreme SDHC card into each of the two memory card slots.

Attached lens.

Placed piece of bread behind ear.

Pointed camera at Bear (the dog).

Took a few photos of Bear until she started barking and lunging at ear.

Connected camera to computer with USB cable (Must buy card reader).

Copied a couple of images to desktop.

Opened in Photoshop.

Added file info.

Added TRAVEL67 watermark.

Resized for blog and added another TRAVEL67 watermark.

Uploaded small images to blog and full size images to Flickr.

So there you go. The first couple of images from the 645D.

I haven’t changed any settings.  This was auto exposure, auto white balance, sRGB, and saving as a Jpeg to both memory cards.

Need a cup of tea, and then will head out to get a few non-dog photos. Hopefully the weather will cooperate.

    Enjoy! Your enthusiasm is infectious as always and you’ll make great images for sure. Indeed in your first try you got great ones. The top one especially with the look on bear’s face is amazing.

    One “bad” thing about medium format digital is that you have no privacy. You can always see a picture of the photographer via the eye of the model, even if it is a bear!
