I am trying out a new camera…bought primarily to increase my reach and chances with birds in flight…but it has to work, of course, for my bread-and-butter landscapes. This is from the first outing with the camera, late in the day yesterday (after UPS finally delivered it :). Having a new camera is like having new eyes…you have to see everything again…even if you have seen it, and even photographed it…many times before.

This is at 24mm equivalent field of view. The 24mm end of the zoom is by far the widest lens I have yet owned and I am interested in what it can do…what it does do…when pointed at the world.

There will be lots of learning over the next few weeks!

Fujifilm HS20 EXR at 24mm equivalent field of view, f3.6 @ 1/450th @ ISO 100. Landscape Mode.

Processed for intensity and clarity in Lightroom (a new camera also means refining my Lightroom routine…the Fuji requires significantly different processing than the Canon did…still learning).
