Another XA for my collection, that's three now ^_^ - This one probably needs new light seals, when I'm feeling brave I'll get some and take on the decaying foam mess.
The XA, introduced in 1979 was the benchmark of the series containing a true rangefinder focusing mechanism and an aperture priority exposure system within its tiny case. It had a six element Zuiko 35mm f:2.8 lens, a CdS exposure meter and a shutter to 1/500. The viewfinder also houses a needle shutter speed indicator.
Photo taken outside the reef at the weekend.
I admit it - I get excited when I see a new fish and excited also to get a photo of it.
Although there are lots of butterfly fish around the reef - I had not seen this one before. My reference book confirms that it is not common - there are few photos of this species on flickr and none from Mauritius so am posting it though quality not very good ( underwater stuff is hard!! ***)
Larger than many others at around 20cm, he has an unusually V- shaped tail (for a butterfly fish), and was alone.
*** I do wonder if it might not be easier to get photos if doing scuba diving. Snorkelling one is carried around by the waves and the fish are often to far away. I struggle to compose any of the photos I take - it's more a case of trying to get the camera to focus on the subject but often a surge or wave moves one abruptly just after pressing the button halfway down and so the shot is blurred. I know scuba diving would be a lot harder to do - but just maybe the weight of everything keeps one in place ; - ))
PS A bit of a dilemma ( but really nothing serious)
I am sorry to see more of my older photos disappear into the flickr bank vault as I post new ones ( free account - limit is 200 )
Now wondering shall I split into two streams - one for underwater and one for everything else .....
I really like this ancient lens from the 1980s: it's super sharp with nice bokeh and very low aberrations. Magnification is great even without the life size converter. The front element is deeply recessed, and a lens hood is not necessary. What's not to like? The noisy and slow autofocus, however I mostly shoot subjects that aren't going anywhere.

The brand new Matchbox 1995 BMW 318ti Compact is now available in various UK retailers and already proving very popular despite its rather challenging proportions. The real vehicle always looked a bit too truncated, hence its Compact designation, but for whatever reason it just hasn't scaled very well here.
What it does have on its side is its subject matter which pulls at us collectors of a certain age memory strings and the fact so few toy manufacturers have ever bothered to model one in this scale and low price point. What has transferred well is its high levels of on point detailing front and rear and its totally stock looking appearance.

Mint and boxed.
Minolta DiMAGE S304 3.3Mp digital camera from 2001. Minolta launched the DiMAGE 5 (3.3Mp), DiMAGE 7 (5.2Mp), S304 and E201 at the same time, their first major foray into the digital market. There was the DiMAGE EX interchangeable CCD sensor and lens camera in 1998, but as a concept it didn't work and no new sensors were introduced. The 5 and 7 were the first bridge cameras, the S304 and E201 more traditional 35mm compact shapes, the S304 the higher end of the two. The 'prosumer' S304 sold for approx 800 GBP new !
MInolta f3.0 GT lens, 7.15-28.6mm (35-140mm 35mm equivalent),11 elements in 9 groups. GT lenses had G-lens technology applied to minimise abberations. There was a fully manual mode, and you could add voice memos and date stamps to each photo.
I've bought compact Canon SX730 for a fun and nice wide angle macro. In fact I've never had a camera with long zoom and now I have so much fun! Nice compact camera. Even on wide angle photos is better than from iPhone (any iPhone). And you have a zoom!
It also has varios manual setting and sometimes it is so usefull.
I added minor levels to the picture for more saturated colors.

The Sandugo was a blood compact, performed in the island of Bohol in the Philippines, between the Spanish explorer Miguel López de Legazpi and Datu Sikatuna the chieftain of Bohol on March 16, 1565, to seal their friendship as part of the tribal tradition. This is considered as the first treaty of friendship between the Spaniards and Filipinos. "Sandugo" is a Visayan word which means "one blood".
The Sandugo is depicted in both the provincial flag and the official seal of the government in Bohol. It also features the image of the blood compact. The top of the seal explains the history behind the Sandugo event that occurred in Bohol, the fleet and the location where the Spaniards anchored and the place where the treaty was conducted which was dated on March 16, 1565.

The three-inch Compact Floppy Disk. Amdek was a big vendor of Compact Floppy drives for the popular U.S. 8-bits (Apple II and Atari, anyway).
I grabbed such a drive and a box of blank Compact Floppies for cheap back in the late 80s for an Apple IIe of mine. It plugged into the standard Disk ][ controller and offered 140K per side (they are "flippy").
These are at least twice as thick as today's (well...yesterday's?) 3.5-inch microfloppies.
The Red-Shouldered Hawk (Buteo lineatus) is a medium-sized hawk with broad, rounded wings as with most from the Buteo genus. Females range up to 24 inches long, wingspan up to 50 inches, but only weigh up to 2 lbs. This species is monogamous and territorial.
Depending on the habitat, this hawk preys mostly on snakes, frogs, insects and mice.
Only around half survive their first year. Most threats are due to natural causes, logging of environment, road accidents, starvation, and humans hunting them. This species is not currently considered conservation dependent.
Location: central Arkansas.
