The second model based on the stacked triangle twists just uploaded.
This model:
Alios kraft, hexagon from 30x30 cm square, 40 division grid.
Included CP and several views, backlit, with and without flash.
Well, ok, this is only some boring shot.
The reason was, to find out about the bokeh capabilities of my compact Canon G10 ...
Result is, not really surprising, that with small objects and macro mode (the golden birds on the fence poles are perhaps 10 cm in height) you can get a quite decent bokeh. Otherwise not.
Good bokeh / good background blur needs:
+ small object distance
+ large focal distance (drawback of the compact cams: short focal lengths :-/ )
+ wide aperture
+ long background distance
.... that's the whole trick ... :-)
These newly built dwellings at Thetford make a refreshing change from the usual mean little "traditional" modern houses, with their sub-Georgian embellishments, cubicle-like rooms and allocated parking. I know a chap who lives a few yards from here. He told me they were going for an "affordable" £120,000. Hmmm. Wouldn't mind one myself. The signboards say that one is sold and one remains for sale. Yet the website says that the agents are property management consultants acting on behalf of landlords. Can't quite work that one out.
My only complaint would be that the ground floor front is all window. This is another example ...habit dies hard... of an architect giving his "end users" what he thinks they ought to have, rather than what they actually want. We're all familiar with the dogma that interiors should be "light" and "airy" and that the inside of the house should merge with the outside. But these are abstractions. Human beings require privacy, retreat, "defensible space" and refuge from the world's scrutiny. Top-to-bottom windows might do on the garden front, but nobody wants to live in a goldfish bowl. The new owners of the three occupied houses have already had to spend a pretty penny on net curtains.
Maginon CF35, cheap compact camera for 35 mm film. I have really no clue regarding the manufacturer, there is no country of production or serial number mentioned on the body. It is mainly made of plastic, but the castings are very clean, so my suspect is Premier from Taiwan.
The camera has a folding front door like the Minox 35 and the lens is really retractible. It is a 4/38 mm fixfocus lens, probably with 3 elements.
It has no exposure meter but the common symbols (cloudy, sunny and something in between). Together with the setting of the film speed (100, 200 and 400 ISO) you will get 6 f-stops in combination.
When the flash is switched on, you have to set the flash distance with the f-stop ring. So, I think the light sensor above the ring is just for underexposure warning.
Furthermore: film advance with a wheel, frame counter, tripod socket, no self-timer, 2x AA-cells for the flash.
Looks very similar to the Yashica Partner.
Compact is a neat little studs up font. Basic, but gets the job done. Perfect for signing mosaics.
Try writing with the font or check the details on Swooshable.
with Porst Color Reflex 1:1,8 50mm lens
The camera is a relabeled Cosina CSM
