Pentax K-3 II, DA 35mm f2.4, ISO 3200, 1/80 @ f2.4
The picture was shot in a museum. The "little" spider's house was made from glass and was very poor illuminated so I'm very satisfied with this result, especially since the glass was also dirty. :) The picture was a little cropped and resized to 2048mpx. Click on the image to see it bigger. :) |

It's been one of my great regrets having bought a mirrorless ILC and caught a bad case of legacy LBA that my dad is no longer around to chat to about it. He was an inveterate buyer and seller of camera gear and the person who got me into photography many,many years ago. He bought me an Agfa Silette Rangefinder in the early 70's - I can still remember going with him to buy it from a guy in the classifieds (newspaper rather than CL). The (UK) Manchester Evening News - Under a Fiver section so that tells you how long ago it was.
He died five years ago and I got to clear out his accumulated years of collecting. I somehow managed to keep it for a few years not wanting to throw out so much old kit that you couldn't give away. When I emigrated to the US in 2013 (two years ago tomorrow) I had to be brutal and get rid of everything. As I was chucking out his collection of camera bags (why he had so many escapes me) I even found £400 in one of them - obviously his "hide from my mother" trading fund :lol:.
The one thing I kept was his collection of old Leicas and Leica bits. There are no collector models but hey - they're old Leicas they ain't getting dumped.
Fast forward to this morning and I'm wondering if any of the Leicas have detatchable lenses. Yes I know I'm stupid. I'm wondering if any will a) detach and b) work on my A6000.
So I've discovered in his box of bits the following.
Ernst Leitz Summacron 3.5cm F3.5
Ernst Leitz Summitar 5cm F2 (this has the push/pull lens thing with the scary back projecting element)
Jupiter 50/F2
And my favourite
Ernst Leitz Elmar 9cm F4
Thanks Dad !

So much for the "DNG" is universal talk. The quality of the various tool implementations varies and apparently C1 adds a decorative border for your entertainment pleasure.

Bird Watcher Bear got an early start on the mushroom season this year. We've had such a cold wet June, the woods have mushrooms we usually don't see until October and November.
It's raining all day, so the pseudo macro 1:3.3 of the DA 18-135 had to fill in for the Sigma 70 macro I usually use, just for it's water resistance.
You never know what you'll find in the woods....
Someone thinks this one is good to eat... hope they didn't get sick...
If this keeps up BW will be bringing his friend Moose out for a big tour of the shrooms.
They always have so much fun together. |
