Oppose because of the vignetting/flash effect (see QI CR); I also think the flash is too direct, sometimes it causes a too flat lighting and it also makes some disturbing reflections on the Pelecanus (those reflections would be much softer or inexistent without that flash). --Kadellar (talk) 18:45, 22 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Support Very nice and a positive example that the use of flash is also useful for animal photography. --Tuxyso (talk) 21:15, 22 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose for a lack of resolution (ok but not excellent) combined with the flash problems (strange shadows in the feathers). Either problem alone would be acceptable imo - if the flash resulted in excellent sharpness. --Julian H. (talk/files) 17:26, 26 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Vondern Castle in Oberhausen, North Rhine-Westphalia, west front, photographed from footpath

Info created by Tuxyso - uploaded by Tuxyso - nominated by Tuxyso -- Tuxyso (talk) 15:00, 21 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Support IMHO this perspective shows the castle in a hamonic composition (better than this perspective which over accentuates the left tower). I've nominated this one because the light was good and well lightened the front of "Burg Vondern". I've tried to integrate the lamps which belong to the castle in a non-distracting way. Look forward to your comments & reviews. -- Tuxyso (talk) 15:00, 21 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Support Very good! -- Arcalino (talk) 17:26, 21 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Weak support I think you have done well picking a suitable composition cf your own comment about the light. Like the slight curved road leading into the castle, and the light is good, which brings out nice details in the brick and the texture on the roof. Not huge wow, but OK for me. --Slaunger (talk) 18:37, 21 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose per the comment/reply of SuperJew above. A 100mm lens is not suitable to capture subjects like dragonflies which need a DOF of at least one inch.

Support -- Just a note, if the A Stranger Came Home film article were longer, the image would be able to fit in there. As it is, I think this is one of the better pictures of Paulette Goddard (my personal favorite in the collection). It didn't have quite the EV or stability to remain as the en:Paulette Goddard lead image, and when there's more room in that article, I'd like to add it there as well. So basically I'm giving this photo a shot here. – Kerαunoςcopia^◁gala xies 07:24, 24 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose Nice idea, but all of them are capitulums of Asteraceae except the Oxalis. It really doesn't belong there. Either stick to Asteraceae or show a good representation of diverse families and flower types. Gidip (talk) 19:13, 21 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Support The title clearly categorizes the image as yellow flowers, and the image is well executed. As far as Gidip´s comment, yes, it would be valuable IF the image tried to represent Asteraceaes, and probably it would be a more valuable image from the botanical perspective, but here it is yellow flowers... --Tomascastelazo (talk) 19:43, 21 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Abstain per my stand on these type of works. I believe Commons is a resource of raw materials for various purposes; not for final products like a poster, sets, heavily cropped picture for Wikipedia info box etc. My schoolboy brain still calculating (I was very weak in Maths) how many permutations and combinations will possible with these flowers. But yes; people have always better ideas and imaginations than me. :) JKadavoor Jee 11:58, 26 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment -- Thank you for your comments, Jee. Let me try to explain my motivations for making this kind of composition. When I was a kid the colored plates of flowers, exotic birds, cars or airplanes in the middle pages of the old paper encyclopaedias were the most consulted by everybody (the grown-ups included). What I'm trying to do here is to recreate those plates and transmit the some kind of amazement that I felt, using images of a much better quality and detail. A link is given to each individual picture, for those interested in the unmasked full-size versions. But the main objective of these posters is to show different kinds of flowers in a single image, in a way that is both instructive and attractive to the eye. -- Alvesgaspar (talk) 17:32, 26 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  - Thank you, Alves for sharing your viewpoint and adding links to all individual pictures. I checked them; most of them worth an FP individually. J Kadavoor J e e 06:51, 27 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Support I admire your effort with creating this great posters. From a technically side the (flash)light on some single shots is for me a bit harsh (probably some better single shots on Commons could be found), but is is compensated by the very nice overall visual impression of the poster. --Tuxyso (talk) 20:27, 26 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose while I like the concept and also agree with Alves that combined plates are something interesting, what this lacks IMHO is a common theme, like same family, or flowering in a location or at a certain time otherwise its just a random selection of pretty flowers that in and of itself isnt special. Gnan garra 10:37, 27 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose For 2 reasons: the mask of the flowers does not look so natural too me, it is pretty "sharp", it can be definitely improved; but specially because the subject is unclear to me. I agree with Jkadavoor's comment and I am just getting oversaturated by these posters. The first posters (some years ago) were good, something different, the one with the white flowers was also interesting, the yellow, I abstained, and I see this has no end. The originality factor and therefore wow is gone, sorry Poco a poco (talk) 12:05, 27 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Support Pretty and joyful. Poco is right for part: the masking job is sometimes a bit harsh, maybe the use of a softer brush could be better, in my opinion. But this very slight flaw does not prevent me for a support.--Jebulon (talk) 17:01, 28 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Head portrayal of a Bubo Bubo (eagle owl)

Info created by Tuxyso - uploaded by Tuxyso - nominated by Tuxyso -- Tuxyso (talk) 20:04, 26 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Support Currently only one other Bubo Bubo (eagle owl) is featured on Commons, but it is only a side portrayal. The nominated photo is a complete head portrayal where both eyes and the beak are visible. -- Tuxyso (talk) 20:04, 26 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Support Is it a bit too red? JKadavoor Jee 07:30, 27 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Info I've selectively removed the red cast on the left. Do you think it is better that way? --Tuxyso (talk) 07:51, 27 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  - Seems better. I somewhat agree with Poco; but wish to retain my support. J Kadavoor J e e 12:58, 27 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose The detail is FP level, the subject and crop are also interesting to me, but the lighting ruins it. There is overexposure on the head and the left side of the owl is in shadow vs the right side. A "portrait" under these conditions is not FP, sorry. Poco a poco (talk) 11:49, 27 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your detailed review. I see your point with the light and shadow, but I disagree with your implication. A good portrayal is not one where the face / head is homogeneously lightened. The one here is no sterile studio repro photography. In classical portrayal ligtning you have one side of the face brighter than the other. See for instance the very good outdoor portrayal by The Photographer.

Done The overexposure was very marginal (imho no less of detail) but I've corrected it now. --Tuxyso (talk) 08:47, 28 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I am not convinced. The example you showed me was to me no FP, either. Sorry, but to me having one side brigther than the other ruins it, as said. Poco a poco (talk) 17:08, 28 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Question what's with the pinkish tinge? --SuperJew (talk) 19:45, 28 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- I guess it came from a semi transparent roofing in that color. Done I've again tried to work on the slight color cast and on the overall lightning. IMHO it is better now. Do you (and Poco) agree? --Tuxyso (talk) 20:50, 28 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose that pinkish tinge --SuperJew (talk) 12:35, 29 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Have you done a cache refresh? Probably the falconer used pink color spray :) If someone can do a better correction I am open minded to it. For me (probably depends on the quality and setting of the monitor) is is barely perceptible. Compared to the other Bubo Bubo head portrayals this one is (imho) very good. --Tuxyso (talk) 13:21, 29 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose Insufficient quality. --Julian H. (talk/files) 19:12, 4 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment These reasons for opposition do surprise me a lot, since this photo was accepted as a quality image (where the purely technical requirements are supposed to be higher, not lower). But ok ... darkweasel94 19:29, 4 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  - I don't know about theory, but in practice, requirements there are lower in every category. At least from my experience. Which doesn't mean that I think this should be a QI. --Julian H. (talk/files) 20:22, 4 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
    - See COM:IG for where I got that information from. Seems that theory isn't always equal to practice - but that's ok. darkweasel94 21:16, 4 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
      - I guess the situation is (approximately) the following: QIs have to meet a certain excellence through quality (say, 6 Quality-Points out of 10). FPs have to meet higher standards (something like 12 points), but they can assemble those through quality and content (Wow-factor, usefulness, rarity, ...). If a photo of the quality of yours would be the only one we had from a different planet, it would probably be a FP. But I personally would give it more something around a 4 on a quality-scale (all detail is lost due to heavy noise reduction, probably in-camera) and something around a 7 on a content scale and therefore, for me personally, it's not FP or QI. For QI, someone had a different opinion, which is perfectly fine. The same could happen here, it's only one vote. All mileages may vary. --Julian H. (talk/files) 09:45, 5 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
        Thank you for explaining your opposition in more detail. In fact, much of the noise reduction was done manually by me, since the originally somewhat noisy shadow in the background of the tram was disturbing me. I might be able to get a better result if I edit the original again, now with less noise reduction. I may nominate that edited version when I have it. darkweasel94 10:36, 5 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose I don't like the composition - the most visible part is the walls in the foreground, but they don't seem to be the subject of the image. The ruins in front of the "skyline" in the background are impressive, and I might support an image of them alone - it looks like if you had made a few steps forward, you could have produced a much better photo. darkweasel94 Diskussion/talk/diskuto 14:19, 4 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Support Only because the image is within the technical guidelines for nomination and candidate for the process, despite the personal opinions as to the quality or merits of the image.

Support, historical value is good - we have zero featured pictures related to the subject of 9/11; technical quality isn't too bad considering the dust, conditions, and technology of the time. -- —Mono 00:22, 7 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Unfortunately, I just don't think the composition is very good; there is a distracting foreground blur. Also, there is overexposure on the dog and the rest of the image is quite dull.

Neutral The leaves do not belong to the same plant and this has to be specified clearly in the caption. I also feel that too little of the plant is in focus, especially in the upper part - maybe because you photographed the plant from above (?) rather than from the same height. Otherwise a beautiful picture. Gidip (talk) 20:32, 8 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Info Plants draw up the water and minerals they need through their roots, where it must pass several layers of cells and points of filtration. In young roots, water can either flow in between cells though their cell walls, and be directed to screening at the endodermis, or it can be filtered initially as it passes into a root hair cell and flows through the continuum of protoplasts and plasmodesmata.

No; but we can take a new photo if it is not an extincted organism. (May I missed something? Is this particular picture has any importance like rarity, etc.?) J Kadavoor J e e 08:52, 12 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

My question is since 7 years: why is the sharpness of the whole image the most important thing in FP? Shall the photographer excuse an image for example because it is a rarity? Ok I give reasons for this image. This image shows one of the rarest plants worldwide. There is only a little number of habitats worldwide. For example: Great Britain has 6 habitats, Ireland 2 habitats, Bavaria 1 habitat. The Global Biodiversity information Facility says: there are only 11 number of occurences by 8 data providers in europe. The place of each habitat is a secret. Only this secret safeguards the survive. I think nearly nobody of the visitors of FP will see in his own life this rare plant in the own habitat. This was my reason to show this 25 years old image. --Michael Gäbler (talk) 17:53, 12 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

"My" light and this picture would make a perfect FP, I guess." Are you still opposed or have you changed to support? --Pine^✉ 21:09, 12 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I think he's saying that while the angle of view is good, the light isn't. darkweasel94 02:52, 13 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Indeed. Sorry for late answer. No reason to be confused, I still oppose. And I think the vertical stretch (perspective correction) is too much (the window is circular in real, not so oval). @ Jee : the access to this point of view is not easy, cause it is a military place. But I'll try some day... ( not now: it is spring, and trees have leaves again...)--Jebulon (talk) 12:24, 14 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Support Still cannot get into my head how this shot was possible with a shutter speed of 1/60, even with panning Poco a poco (talk) 10:31, 12 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Info The insect was standing in the air for a few seconds without moving. Again and again almost on the same place. It showed a territorial behavior. It was a patience game. Autofocus didn't work, so I did it manually. The first shots without flash were very blurry. Unfortunately because I was closer to it. :-( The light was not optimal for aperture f10. The sun was already low and it was shady on this spot. With flash I was able to capture it in the right moment. More I can't say. --Hockei (talk) 11:43, 12 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Poco, I think you noticed my comment on the other version. They float in the air more than one minute in the same location. I think some insects bask while flying. J Kadavoor J e e 15:37, 12 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose For sure: Such a shot is technically challenging. Nonetheless the photo itself is imho not good enough for FP: The main subject is ~~VERY~~ quite small, level of detail is not convincing, the background is unsettled and due to the long exposure time there are (contrary to Pocos sayings) remarkable movement artetfacts. --Tuxyso (talk) 11:29, 12 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Thank you for your reviewing and your statement. Your opinion is OK. But let me say, what I think. I cannot agree that the insect is VERY small, sorry. And the "remarkable movement artetfacts" are not that bad I think. It gives the picture a certain dynamics. Due to the backround it has a good 3-d-effect. The distance to the gras was about one meter. --Hockei (talk)

OK, let us say "quite" small. For me too small to be the main object of the shot. Don't worry about my review, I tried to be as objective as possible. --Tuxyso (talk) 12:21, 12 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not worry. It's just an exchange of views. Everyone wants an objective assessment and me too. --Hockei (talk) 12:33, 12 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose -- Sorry but no. I went through most FP of flying insects and the bar is well above the level of the present candidate. See here: 1, 2, 3, 4. also check this image of the same species, by Richard. -- Alvesgaspar (talk) 15:00, 14 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hm, but there are other animals with a different behavior and therefore it is a comparison of apples and oranges in my opinion. And the last one is not flying. --Hockei (talk) 16:03, 14 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, we are comparing oranges with apples when considering Richard's picture. But not the others, in which the critters have a flying behavior similar to this one. The problem of your photo is quality, which is well below expected from a FP. I'm referring to detail, lighting and sharpness. Alvesgaspar (talk) 15:46, 15 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Bee fly is a bee mimic; not a bee or hoverfly. Although they mimic the shape and behavior of bees, there is much difference. They are very slender (auto focus on a slender subject is very difficult) and their legs are lean and lengthy like a crane-fly. Their flight is very weak and slow compared to bees. Possibly the resemblance is aposematic, affording the adults some protection from predators. Perhaps Notafly can give a better explanation than me. J Kadavoor J e e 09:43, 16 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Scarlet Macaw, photographed in the Zoo of Münster, Germany

Info I know that bird nominations are risky because of the high quality bar but imho this (head) portrayal of a Scarlet Macaw is better than any other similar photo of the same species, especially with regard to level of detail. Just a try, hope you'll support it :)

Already looks better! Personally, I think it could even use a tighter crop, as on the right side the crop is right on the bird, and I don't think the blurred yellow circles add that much. Regardless, you have my support :)

Question Is the "red" natural? or over-saturated ? --Dey.sandip (talk) 07:05, 14 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- I think this ara looks that way in real. I have not tuned the colors in any way. The ara is red enough by itself :) Probably the color looks quite saturated because the bird is not in bright light but merely in moderate shadow. I used the camera color profile "Adobe Standard" which also tends to a slightly more saturated color representation than "Camera Neutral". In short: No additional saturation by image editing! --Tuxyso (talk) 07:23, 14 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

    - Have you overseen the ":)"? Also belongs to the next sentences, so don't worry about my reaction. I don't seriously think that is was a revenge vote.

Tripod with a gimbal head. I waited near a small waterhole inside a blind. As it was the hot season birds come to drink. Actually in this case a 7D or something with a 400mm f5.6 could probably do almost as well for this shot, as there was enough light. But when things start getting really dim, distant, or move quickly, then there is a big difference. JJ Harrison (talk) 03:18, 18 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose There's a lot to like about the colours and lighting. The crop is a bit random - the left quarter adding nothing to the picture. I wonder if a vertical crop with more foreground would be better. Both the viewpoint (standing, eye-level) and the unfortunate 21st-century accessories make this too much like a tourist snap and not an outstanding artistic photograph. I know "Would you mind letting me hold your laptop bag and mobile phone while I take your picture?" probably wouldn't be an easy request. Colin (talk) 11:58, 16 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- My Khmer isn't good enough I'm afraid! The 21st century objects seem anachronistic, but they are part of the landscape today. Many monks in Thailand have mobile phones and things like that for example. I do have other shots of monks without the accessories, but they are not entirely similar images. JJ Harrison (talk) 14:02, 16 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  - As an addendum, I saw these guys walking around the ruin from a distance, and ran about 50 meters to get the photo as they were about to walk down the stairs. I waved and beckoned to get their attention and thus this photo. I think that even if I had managed to get them to remove the gear, then the facial expressions, and poses, and positions would change, and the photo might have suffered in other ways. JJ Harrison (talk) 14:06, 16 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I appreciate my vote is in the minority and for some people the accessories add interest. I understand that there are recording-how-it-is aspects to the image that are particularly relevant to Commons vs some coffee-table book. But still, we require wow for FP vs QI and I'm afraid this stops me going wow. It reminds me of a pic in my wedding album: there's the entrance to an old sandstone church, a very smart man in a kilt, a beautiful bride in her wedding dress, and on the ground in full view... a Marks And Spencer shopping bag containing a present. Colin (talk) 15:54, 16 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

For me; it is not a problem if they (or JJ) don't want to hide the realities and present them as they are. But as JJ explained above they are just some Buddhist tourists visiting a Hindu temple. So the environment is not adding anything to this picture. J Kadavoor J e e 03:25, 17 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Please use a more specific filename than just the date-time and the species order. We wouldn't accept "2013-05-14 15-32-31-primate.jpg" as a useful name for a portrait of a person. Colin (talk) 14:09, 17 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- But many of our contributors are following such a naming convention. I think the main reason is because sometimes subjects are not well identified at the time of upload. Later, after several discussions even outside Wikimedia, they may identified up to a specific Taxonomic rank. Sometimes we made mistakes and corrected later. So renaming in every attempt is a bit annoying. But in my opinion, including the lowermost rank available at the time of upload in the file name is a good start. JKadavoor Jee 04:07, 18 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  - I don't think the order is remotely sufficient for FP. This is supposed to be our very best work. There are 150,000 species in Diptera. The flower example you give has the genus, of which there are only 100 species. Even so, since the flower has been identified, I do believe for FP we should attempt to improve the filename to the level of confidence. Also IMO it would better if the date/time and the subject were not joined with a dash - use a space so that search tools can find them as proper words. Colin (talk) 09:25, 20 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
    - I'm not against your argument. I too against careless file-names, improper description, etc. My only argument is whether we need to rename it on every update, or keep the existing name and update the description and categories? BTW, this picture is identified to the species level. JKadavoor Jee 09:09, 21 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
      - There is no advantage to keeping a poor name if a better name is possible. The rename facility will fix up links (at least within Wikimedia). If renaming is a hassle, then we should fix that problem, not just shrug and live with poor data. Ultimately the filename of the JPG may be the only identifying feature of this image should it be copied (per our free usage desire) or linked to -- the extra information in the text/categories on Commons description page is relevant to its storage here but not on its usage elsewhere. For example, Wikipedia would need to wikilink to it using the filename, which is unhelpful in letting anyone know the correct image was linked. I appreciate that if one has uploaded loads of images, then tweaking their filenames would be a fair bit of work. But here I'm interested in FP and for that we should certainly lead by example.

With that lens and a butterfly so small, a photo like this is not impossible, however, has cost me at least 60 shots to select from the same butterfly. Maybe because it is not a macro lens or I am definitely a newbi. I lean more for the second option. Thanks :) --The Photographer (talk) 13:19, 20 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Not many butterfly and dragonfly photographers use macro lens due to their shallow DOF. In-fact a 300mm generic is their ideal choice as a compromise on DOF against details. Eric uses a Sigma 50-500 at its long end for his dragonflies. But there are exceptions like Dr. Saji who use a Canon EF 180mm f/3.5L Macro USM for his butterflies. He is very famous for his Life Cycle series. A 100mm or shorter is not very helpful IMHO; except for small Lycaenidae. Just some viewpoints; there are different ideas. J Kadavoor J e e 04:52, 21 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah well, I I meant that not everything is mm or apertures, lens quality greatly influences the outcome. I'm going out to take macro photos at this time. Thank you very much for the info, a hug! :) --The Photographer (talk) 15:41, 24 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose Sorry, neither quality nor motive works for me. The "heap of fish" (or what is it?) is not well lightened - one third is in shadow. In the foreground some piece of fish look overexposed. Such photos only work for me with a clear compositional idea which is also missing here. There is no clear pattern of repeated elements, the dish at the very top left spoils. The image misses a reasonable language tagged description. "Maroc Essaouira city" is too unspecific. --Tuxyso (talk) 08:26, 18 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

While dust devils are common during the dry season in Etosha, it's rare to see one that runs right through a big group of animals that includes elephants, ostriches, zebras and springbok. In fact this is the only time I've seen a dust cloud hit an animal herd and coming straight for us. And this is a fairly big dust devil because the 4 elephants are dwarfed by the cloud. :) -- ~y (talk) 15:29, 16 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Support -- Content is FP, I do not mind the slight absence of sharpness.--Telemaque MySon (talk) 10:25, 20 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Support This is a great image with lovely colours and composition. I don't think we should demand focus-stacked images for in-the-field shots. Indeed, a stacked image with hyper-depth-of-focus can cause problems with our 3D depth perception of 2D images. This one is at F10 and going up to F16, say, might bring in more distracting background. en:WP:FP places too much emphasis on boring species-identification images that lack any composition qualities and not enough of behaviour or scene, and of course that is all irrelevant to COM:FP. Colin (talk) 13:15, 20 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Focus -stacking is irrelevant here. Here the shallow DOF is probably due to the 100mm on a full-frame. Using a longer lens or on a cropped sensor camera will give better results. Boring is just a matter of interest; I usually get bored by subjects that I'm not interested (perspective, tilt, distortion, etc are quite boring for me) . BTW, this is a very interesting subject for me. J Kadavoor J e e 16:48, 20 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Focus stacking is not "irrelevant" because folk are used to seeing focus stacked shots of insects and vote assuming that getting all of a wasp in focus is normal or even desirable. Also see this for why a change in lens focal length or sensor size wouldn't help here. I'm no bug expert so correct me if I'm wrong. But even if the DoF doubled from 0.5mm to 1mm it would make a tiny difference to whether the whole wasp is in focus or not. Look at the image as a whole, as a picture, not as a study in the technicalities of macro photography. This is an image Alvesgaspar should be proud of and if I had taken it, I would put in in a frame on my wall. Colin (talk) 07:29, 21 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

No offence at all. I said focus-stacking is irrelevant here only because the subject seems moving. Reply on DOF and background blur. A tough topic; so I decided to read a lot prior to make any comment and ended up here: "If all other things being equal, a smaller format will generally have DEEPER depth of field and less background blur than a larger format. This makes sense because smaller format cameras use shorter focal lengths for the same field of view, and therefore similar f-stops mean a smaller physical aperture size: less blur." J Kadavoor J e e 06:25, 23 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Interesting article, thanks. The chap doesn't touch on the issues of diffraction though, which appears to be what scares macro photographers off of using smaller apertures, and is an area where I understand full-frame has an advantage. It also generally has an ISO/noise advantage so one could use a smaller aperture (with higher ISO, say) and achieve equivalent diffraction softening and noise as the crop sensor. Also see this and this for why our diffraction fears are over emphasised. Alvesgaspar's D800 with a good lens can apparently outresolve at f22 a Canon 5Dmk3 at any aperture. So, it is complex! Colin (talk) 07:58, 23 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Of course; but I wonder whether some reasons why many macro experts still prefer an APS-C. (And, see the comment of Ken Rockwell on diffraction: "For flat subjects, diffraction limits performance at f/16, it's stronger at f/22, and downright soft at f/32, but that's physics. The softening from diffraction at f/32 is less than the improvement you get to depth-of-field for 3-D subjects, and for most macro work, I shoot at f/32.") J Kadavoor J e e 11:31, 23 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

@Jkadavoor & Colin: thank you for your interest, that is the best compliment for a creator! Concerning the type of camera used for macro, the real advantage in using a full frame type is the quality of the sensor (low noise and diffraction), not the size. The obvious disadvantage is the need for more light (because of the bigger lenses), in situations where light is almost always scarce, due to the need of using small apertures (for dof) and high shutter speeds (for sharpness). The type of lens to choose from depends very much on the situation, Yes, it is true that we get larger dof with small focal distances. But we are then forced, when photographing small subjects, to get very close to them. Which might be impossible (because they fly away) or dangerous (because then sting).

- @The Photographer. No downsampling was done, just cropping. Please note that the magnification factor only depends on the lens, not on the sensor. The radius of the wasp nest is about 12-15 mm. With a full frame camera, a 1:1 macro lens and a small subject like this one, it is just not possible to fill the whole 24x36 frame with it because we can't bring the lens closer! -- Alvesgaspar (talk) 10:19, 23 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
