Thanks to everyone who's subscribed to the channel. This is many thousands more than I'd ever thought would watch my 'stuff'!
Thanks to, to Canon UK who twisted my arm into starting the videos ;-)

I've updated my two review videos looking at composition for ultra wide lenses [each is about half an hour]
for the 12mm https://youtu.be/PN9xSNFd7es
for the 9mm https://youtu.be/nTrPDXGeKZw
Both are ones I'll take on a job 'just in case'

I've seen a lot of questions lately about colours looking 'dull' on the ET-8550. I made this [20 mins long] video quite a while back looking at wide gamut images, but the principles of wide gamut printing are more relevant now than ever for EcoTank users.

An A3+ paper size with a half inch border perfectly fits the 3:2 aspect ratio of a 35mm [full frame] camera. From my recent 10 minute video about cropping and borders for print https://youtu.be/qR_lmZ_2y_Q

The crop which had the most significant and long lasting impact on my photography. I've been updating some of my older, but still relevant videos, and had forgotten this one https://youtu.be/t7X5IYjwtDM Part two is longer and covers all the technical aspects of making a large print from a 35mm B&W film scan https://youtu.be/Y6xKJPuALyw

Sorry - still both quite poorly, so no new videos.
But it appears there are a whole load of rumours appearing appearing about new 180 MP medium format [33x44] sensors , so perhaps a Fuji GFX180 some time in a couple of years - and an X3D and Sony 100MP full frame
Seem I 'predicted' this a year ago when Sony bought out a 247MP industrial sensor

Don't expect anything for a couple of years at least...

Sorry nothing much happening on the channel - been rather more ill than I'd expected from my 'cold'... Will return when my voice does...
Meanwhile, two views of the North Sea... [Northumberland]
