OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA u 1010.

 

Even with a compact the sharpness is pretty good.

The sharpness is imho quite reasonable considering the price of this type of camera.

 

Deze soort is voor het eerst beschreven door Charles de Geer, een geboren Zweed die opgroeide in Nederland waar ook zijn familie vandaan kwam. De wat opmerkelijke Nederlandse naam dankt deze vlieg aan de tekening; een gele basiskleur met een wat complexe, maar regelmatige zwarte strepentekening dwars op het achterlijf. Deze bestaat uit drie zwarte banden met daaronder een vaak onderbroken, dunnere en ietwat V-vormige streep. De bovenste band is meestal versmolten met de driehoekige streep erboven. Het borststuk is zwartbruin en glanzend, en heeft een lichtere, meestal gele 'uitstulping' aan de achterzijde. De ogen zijn rood van kleur en de lengte is 7 tot 12 millimeter.

Algemeen

 

De pyjamazweefvlieg leeft van nectar en stuifmeel van bloemen en er worden meerdere plantensoorten bezocht. Deze soort komt in grote delen van Europa voor, maar ook in Noord-Afrika, Noord-Amerika en in Azië. In Nederland en België is de pyjamazweefvlieg algemeen, en komt overal voor waar veel bloemen en bladluizen zijn. Deze soort is erg populair in de tuinbouw, omdat de larven vraatzuchtige belagers van bladluizen zijn.

Voortplanting

 

Het vrouwtje legt de witte, langwerpige eitjes in een bladluizenkolonie, waar de larven al na enkele dagen uitkomen. De larve is een platte, kruipende larve die iets weg heeft van een worm, de larve is half-doorzichtig en glimmend. Vooral de larve is erg nuttig omdat het voedsel uitsluitend bestaat uit bladluizen, die worden leeggezogen. De larve is vooral te vinden aan de onderzijde van bladeren, omdat zich hier ook de bladluizen bevinden. Na enige tijd verpopt de larve, deze pop ziet eruit als een bruine druppel. De snelheid van de ontwikkeling hangt sterk af van de temperatuur; in het noordelijkste deel van het verspreidingsgebied komt slechts een enkele generatie tot ontwikkeling, in het zuiden wel vier of vijf.

It stormed Saturday night and we stayed nice and dry.

...or what's left of it.

Location: Peninsular Malaysia

Range: Endemic to Peninsular Malaysia and Sumatra only.

IUCN Red List: Critically Endangered.

 

Information: A rare, compact pheasant of damp tropical lowland rainforest, especially peat swamp forest. Dark overall with bright red facial skin and a cocked, vertically-flattened tail. Males have fine vermiculations on the wings, deep orange (fire)back, purple rump and pale orange tail. Females are dark blue all over. Exceedingly shy, typically moving in pairs or small groups. Female is similar to Salvadori’s Pheasant male but the 2 species do not normally co-occur and the latter has often has its tail pointing downwards. Gives a relatively high-pitch “chick!” followed by a low “takrow”.

I will be using this camera in week 325 of my 52 film cameras in 52 weeks project:

lip gloss compact from the 1970s, colors are Pink and Peach.

Dawson City on Christmas Day 1976 (with texture) - 35mm Compact Film - Photographer Russell McNeil PhD (Physics) lives in Nanaimo, British Columbia where he works also as a writer and a personal trainer.

Revue 35 Compact de Luxe, a scarce sister of the Revue 35 Compact Electronic, which is itself also a scarce camera.

 

As far I found out, the difference is in the viewfinder: Both feature a needle of the exposure meter, but the Electronic only indicates over- or underexposure, the de Luxe displays shutter speeds (1000-250-30), similar to a Minox 35.

The Revue 35s are nearly identical to the Vivitar 35 EM. The Vivitar also displays the shutter speeds and its opening for the lens barrel is round, not square.

The producer of this camera is still a mystery, it reminds me of the Revue 400SE/Vivitar 35ES pair.

The logo on this camera, the atomic model, looks like the early Yashica logo, but it is not the same.

 

The camera itself is really cute. With the lever at the bottom you can retract the lens and the shutter button, the lens is protected by a sliding cover then. It has aperture priority AE, the focus has to be set manually. There is a small button above the viewer, which obviously has the same function like the half pressed shutter button: the meter is switched on and the needle in the viewer indicates the expected shutter speed, furthermore a red light becomes visible on top, I assume it is a battery check (two 1.5 V SR44 are required).

The film speed dial around the rewind crank is devided in half-steps (!) from 25 to 400+1/2, perhaps 560 ASA.

Most parts of the housing are made of thin plastic. There are small cracks around some screws and the window of the viewer is broken too.

 

Update after one roll of film: Yes, really a fine camera. Sometimes I had mixed up the feet and the meter scale, but that didn't matter ...

The Compact Mining Truck is equipped with a small tipper, drill, small claw, chainsaw and mining tools.

It can carry and dig energy crystals and ores.

 

This is my 2nd Moon Heart Compact. I really love the design. I wish there would be a reproduction with better sound system. I got this from a friend. Thanks to Mr.Champ ^__^

 

I think the designs for Sailor Moon S toys are superb. Most of the items came out beautifully, including the heart moon rod, the compact, and lip-rods for neptune, uranus and pluto. They look so real, not like plastic-ky we have nowsaday with other girl's anime item. Don't you think so?

I currently own and use the following digital compact mirrorless cameras:

 

The Canon G5 (back left) is the oldest digital camera that I still use. I would like to retire it but it has one useful feature that none of my other camera have -- a built-in intervalometer.

 

The Canon G11 (back center) has a reticulated LCD screen that I find useful when I am shooting still life or close-up subjects with the camera mounted on a tripod or a copy stand.

 

The Canon G15 (back right) is the one I take when I need to travel with a light photographic load. The f/1.8 to 2.8 28mm to 140mm fixed zoom lens covers 80% of the subjects I need to shoot. If it had a reticulated LCD, it would be close to perfect for me.

 

The Olympus E-p3 (middle left) and the Olympus E-p1 (middle right) were my handheld available light cameras until I replaced them with the X-Pro1. I am now using them as dedicated black & white cameras.

 

The Fuji X-Pro1 (foreground) is my current handheld available light camera.

 

All six cameras have the following important features that I need:

1. Quiet operation -- especially when shooting theater or in audio recording studios

2. Excellent image quality (jpeg and RAW)

3. Size, weight, and style of a Leica rangefinder

4. A simple user interface that relies more on dials rather than menus

5. Video

 

Some of the important features that I need but none of the six cameras have are:

1. Fast and accurate manual focus control

2. Input jack that accepts a microphone for video audio track

3. Accessory battery pack for extended shooting sessions

 

Some of the important features that I need that some have and some do not include:

1. Built to withstand daily usage -- my G5, E-p1, and E-p3 break too often and too easily

2. High quality, fast, interchangeable lenses -- the Canon lenses are not interchangeable

3. LCD screen that swings, tilts, and rotates -- only on the Canon G5 and G11

4. Hot shoe and PC flash connections for external flash units -- all have hot shoes but only the X-Pro1 has both

Bag of trash before going down the chute! I collect trash for a living and on the side clean apartments usually for move out— so much do a PhD in sociology. The irony. Anyway I was doing a clean-up for an apartment of girls. They were around so I could really take the Cosmo. Plus it was smushed into a pile of tampons and kitchen trash. I figured I would snap a pick before throwing down the chute and that would be that. The trash here goes down a chute and is collected a day later and taken to the incinerator. In this bag were a bunch of magazines, kitchen trash and other gross stuff. In a separate bag was the Taylor swift vogue from September (becomes important). I took this bag out and dropped it down the chute and actually, with force threw out the bag with the t Swift vogue. Unfortunately I soon found out that I tossed out something that was important and also... threw out the vogue. I needed both back. I went down to find the dumpster.

Not all amateur photographers own a DSLR. They are expensive, heavy and bulky, while compacts camera fits anywhere. Some of them have a nice macro feauture, that allow to really get close, but for a 1:1 macro you will have to experiment. On this image, apply the same macro coupler principle for a DSLR. I have a box of all kind of surplus lenses and found a small 20mm, reversed and mounted with electrical tape, set the compact to telephoto. My compact at telephoto is 20mm, so 20 /20=1. So able to reach a 1:1 macro with this setup. This small red fly is not a regular size fly, it only measure 2.5mm long, is really hard to see because of it's light color. But this macro setup was able to resolve even the microscopic hairs on the back of this red fly. Recommendation: Use the camera on Program mode with flash and low ISO. If the flash is too strong, cover it with a darker film.

Story: After I put up the video of my retouching on the Jonnie Walker shot I got a meeting with a company that makes cosmetics. Since I didn't really have any cosmetics in my book I spent some quality time shooting specifically for that meeting. This was actually the shot that I started with. I knew I wanted a shot of a compact and this was basically the most difficult compact to shoot I could find. The entire thing is mirrored.

 

Lighting: The compact is sitting on a white seamless and there are two lights. There is a bare dynalite 2040 head from camera left providing the hard shadow. Then there is another bare head from camera right pointed to the seamless and that is what is providing the light fall off for the top. If the seamless is one color then the chrome doesn't look chrome so you have to get some light fall off. In addition to the two lights there is also a reflector right in front and a reflector overhead. The camera is just able to get between the two reflectors which is why the compact is small on the sensor in the before shot. I really needed that bit of light on the edge around the actual makeup.

Pretty unbelievable that there's a APS-C sensor in the NEX-3N body, which is only slightly larger than my Canon S90 P&S' body.

Ich habe des öfteren darüber nachgedacht, warum Hunde ein derart kurzes Leben haben, und bin zu dem Schluss gekommen, dass dies aus Mitleid mit der menschlichen Rasse geschieht; denn da wir bereits derart leiden, wenn wir einen Hund nach zehn oder zwölf Jahren verlieren, wie groß wäre der Schmerz, wenn sie doppelt so lange lebten?

(Walter Scott)
