Parker Technology also accepts assignments in conventional photography, especially large panoramic mosaics. You can see examples of this type of photography on the Parker Technology Flickr site.
Below is a wide field image of the White Lady falls on Dartmoor taken using a Canon 40D DSLR and a Canon 17-55mm f#2.8 IS lens.
Another 17-55mm wide field image below is a beautiful double rainbow that appeared over Brockenhurst late one evening (that is why it is high up in the sky). This image appeared on Meridian TV on the evening weather and on the EPOD (Earth Science Picture of the Day) web site for 15th June 2009.
A beautiful winter sunset over North Weirs, New Forest, taken with the Canon 40D and the 28-200mm zoom lens:
And finally an example of the phenomenal distance-grabbing power of the 100-400mm IS zoom lens. This group of female deer were captured by the 40D at a distance of around 300 yards. They were all looking towards an early morning jogger who appeared out of nowhere and who was also completely oblivious to the deer about 20 yards away from him.
Currently Parker Technology carries out conventional (terrestrial) photography with the amazing Canon 40D DSLR. Lenses include the highly flexible 28-200mm zoom which covers just about everything, a 17-55mm f#2.8 IS wide field lens, and the 100-400 mm zoom lens (with x1.4 and x2 teleconverters) for those difficult shots of deer and other wildlife who just don’t want to be seen. There are lots of bolt-on goodies for the 40D including the remote controller, a 90 degree viewing eyepiece, a ring-flash and conventional flash, and the 2-battery power pack extender which makes for a much firmer grip on what has now become a weighty piece of kit.
I am truly amazed at the quality of image this camera is able to produce.
