I got this lense as a bundle with my D3300.
The lense
Retracted
Extended for use. The lense extend to its maximum length at 55mm and 18mm. The lense has minimum length at 35mm.
Today I went out to Connaught Place, at one time the centre of Delhi and premier shopping centre.
Connaught Place (now renamed Rajiv Chowk) is a circular structure of around half a kilometer diameter, with shops at the circumference and a park in the middle. The park has multiple metro lines under it.
Most of the shots were taken at 18mm.
Shops in the inner circle
Lay out of Delhi Metro network
Vendors selling food
Items displayed on footpath
Imitation Jewellery
Vendor arranging imitation jewellery. On the right are hand looms and leather goods.
Battery powered rickshaws. They are slowly augmenting the petrol/cng powered ones, which may be phased out in near future.
Fast food Indian style
The next two shots show how much DR the sensor has. Details of shadows leap out by adjusting the levels in Software
What came out of the camera
A fast fix.Just fiddled with exposure compensation to get the data from shadows. With proper curve the shadows can be boosted, while the highlights are left alone. Will start working on setting up custom curves for high DR shots.
There are many more interesting shots, which I will upload later. My dog is nudging my elbow for his evening walk. Impossible to work when he is in that mood.
