Three more from my Olympus E-P3. These were taken at Trainworks which was formerly called the New South Wales Rail Transport Museum ...

The first one is cute, like it should be an ad for something. Do to have info on the third one? ISO, f stop all of that?

#3 was done witht the kit zoom set to 25mm and at f/11 & ISO200. It is made of 3 RAW images converted using Olympus Viewer 2 to uncompressed TIFs with minimal tweaking, adjusted in Adobe Camera RAW (yes you can use it for non-RAW files) and then combined in Photomatix. I could have got away with a single image to get essentially idential results but usually bracket anyway and Photomatix does a nice job of enhancing the rust. The 3 exposed images were 1/6s, 1/13s and 0.3s.

The picture from the inside of the car is really cool, nice and unique viewpoint there.

I always thought "TIFF" was a RAW, similar to DNG. a universal RAW format.

But, back to OP...
Keep these trains moving.. I also love the 1st one an very good Street Candid.
The Double-Decker train photo is so cool...
Drive Wheel details are always welcome..

not really... It is uncompressed but it doesn't really fall in the raw format category..

Wonderful photos. I have the feeling you made more than 3. I would like to see them all.
On the second one everything so perfectly lined up horizontally and vertically. Did you use "transform" (perspective or distortion)?

Tiff is a file format that was popular when scanners first hit the PC world. If has optional compression and the uncompressed format supports the retention of EXIF data. The big advantage of TIFF is the support for 16-bit colour and of course the zero compression option. An uncompressed TIFF for the E-P1 and E-P3 in 16 bit colour is abound 64mb in size.

P.S. Thanks for the comments.
