[QUOTE="Silversnapper, post: 831200, member: 52909"] After my last post, and impatient as I can sometimes be, I remembered that I had an old Pringles box in the garage so I retrieved it, carved it up a little, clipped on two layers of kitchen towel and this is the result, my first diy diffuser for over fifteen years. [ATTACH type="full"]417525[/ATTACH] I do some tethered shooting of close-up and macro work (just fun stuff) and I was keen to try out the old-fashioned way again so I set up these three 25mm 'ish tall figures, lifted the camera to my eye and was horrified to realise that my shaky hands made composing and focusing a real challenge, even with the OS doing it's best. I took about 23-30 shots and I only got a couple with the eyes 'nearly' in focus so much more practice is needed. This is one of the 'nearly'....a simple convert from RAW to JPEG and resize, nothing else. [ATTACH type="full"]417526[/ATTACH] And so the saga continues ....:) [/QUOTE]
