Watch out for this little fellow he's got some zing to his sting. You may have a reaction to his sting with itching, rash, welt or all three. When the're not curled up, they look like walking toothbrush's :-) This is a Tussock moth/caterpillar, or larvae stage.
Here's my Canon Micro Compact. These were sold from 1984 and I found this in a thrift store in the UK for around $2. Came with a detachable side flash unit and a manual too.
It's small and easy to carry around but makes a fair amount of noise when the shutter fires and then autowinds the film to the next frame. Also the focus distance indicator shows you the focus after the shot was taken. Can't really see what the point is of that.
Sharp 35mm f/2.8 lens and took some crisp shots even in the NYC rain, see the set!
Definitely the best film compact I have ever owned, and probably one of the best film compacts ever. Got mine from The Camera Workshop at Peninsula Plaza -- once I had it in my hands, it was clear just how well-built it was, and how well maintained it had been by its previous owner. A nice tight package with superb mechanical finishing.
Just got back my first roll of film from the developer, and I'm really impressed by the sharpness, colour rendition and exposure of the pics. The most annoying thing about this camera is the fact that you have to re-set the camera's flash settings every time you switch it on if you want to fire without the flash, but I found the flash really well implemented -- it seems to nail the exposure every time, and practically none of my shots suffered from that hard contrast look that typical on-body flashes give you.
Here is a fairly young rubbish compactor station provided by Veolia to a homemakers shopping centre in Artarmon. The big blue Wastech hook lift container has been there for a while and receives cardboard recycling from a stationary auger compactor. On the other hand, the mini hook portable blade compactor had only just been delivered and installed for mixed waste, which I’m sure consists mostly of plastic packaging. The 1100L on the left was part of a small group of bins awaiting removal after being replaced by the mini packer, they would sit under that pair of grey chutes coming out of the wall. In this photo you also get a look at the independent power system which allows the mini packer to function, sitting just to the left of it. Usually the motor, pump and hydraulics are all integrated into portable packer units, but this mini packer (I guess due to its small size) has the drive system existing externally as a separate system. In most cases the collection worker disconnects a single electrical plug when removing portable units, but in this situation the driver has to disconnect the “packer in place” plug and also unhooks two hydraulic lines, seen sitting just above the red bucket which is there to catch any hydraulic fluid that drips out.

My first unofficial alternate of 42071. The Dropship features opening cockpit, tiltable front pair of the turbofans, the defense turret can be rotated 360° and the laser cannon angled up and down and all the turbofans spin freely on the wings.

The name says it all, This is trully a deluxe camera, very classical in design, but very high quality in terms of build and performance. Everything one needs to take high quality pictures is present: Fujinon lens, automatic parallax correction and a feature inherited from the V series, the focusing is done by means of a wheel, next to the viewfinder, very neat!
My Ballot Box was fit to bursting this year. Somehow we managed to squeeze 998 votes in their.
It made me smile that in the age of ipods and Twitter the running of our Country is determined by pieces of paper marked with a cross and pushed into a box. And yes, thats a special ballot paper compactor tool especially for the job.
You see, there are always entrepreneuring opportunities for those who can see them :)
The most fashionable and widespread of all the camera types nowadays are compact digital cameras, which are now so affordable that almost every household has one. Designed to be stylish, with a moderate number of features they offer far more capacity than traditional, film-based models and give...

I had to use that cockpit again!
A small mech, with shield on right arm and blade and flamethrower on the left arm.
Taken with a very ordinary compact camera through a train window. This camera required the thin cloud layer to get any sort of image showing the shadow - full sun was too bright. Taken near Farnborough, Hants at 11.10, almost the full extent of coverage.
Made in France ... nicht China oder eine andere fernöstliche Herkunft, wie man vielleicht – vorurteilsbeladen – beim Anblick solcher Plastik-Geräte denkt. Porst ließ sich diese Kassettenkamera Ende der 1970er in Frankreich fertigen, das Original hieß Fex Indo 126 EL compact.
Erstaunlich ist die sehr ordentliche Verarbeitung: nichts scheppert oder quietscht oder passt nicht. Die Rückwand z. B. rastet ohne das geringste Spiel ein, auch der Transporthebel wackelt nicht im geringsten. Der Auslöser funktioniert fast wie die Sensor-Taste von Agfa: Bei moderatem Fingerdruck wird (offensichtlich durch Federdruck) der Verschluss betätigt.
Vergessen sollte man aber die fingierten Belichtungsmesser-Zellen, die ebenso wie die "Serien-Nummer" des Objektivs eine höhere Klasse vortäuschen sollen. Auch der Blitzschuh wirkt wie nachträglich aufgesetzt, an dieser Stelle war bei einem Schwestermodell ein Blitzwürfel-Sockel.
Das Fixfokus-Objektiv hat die Lichtstärke 8 und eine Brennweite von 45 mm. Die Bedienungsanleitung sagt dazu: Mit dem Schnappschußobjektiv Ihrer Kamera gelingen scharfe Aufnahmen von 1,5 m bis unendlich. Die besten Aufnahmen werden im Schnappschußbereich (1,5–3 m) gemacht. Dafür ist Ihre Kamera speziell eingerichtet.
Die Belichtungseinstellungen sind überraschend vielfältig, zumindest für diese Art Aufnahmegerät: "Sonne" bedeutet 1/150 s und Blende 11, "Wolke" stellt 1/100 u. Blende 8 ein und "Blitz" lässt es bei Blende 8, aber mit 1/50 s.
Der Preis des Sets (Kamera, Schlaufe, Film) war 49,- DM im Jahr 1979.
Zum Abschluss der Begrüßungstext der Bedienungsanleitung:
Sie haben eine Kassetten-Kamera gekauft, mit der Sie ganz einfach gute Bilder machen können. Die Kamera ist so klein, daß sie nicht nur in jede Tasche paßt, sondern auch im vollsten Handschuhfach noch Platz findet. Sie sind also in jeder Situation schußbereit und man wird Ihre Schnappschüsse bewundern.
Da lassen wir uns doch gerne bewundern. ;-)
