Modern vezetőnélküli szerelvény, a londoni DLR -Docklands Light Railway.
Vasárnapi egész napos londoni városnézésünket Greenwichben kezdtük, ahova a Canary Wharf modern városrésztől a Docklands Light Railway (DLR) vezető nélküli, ultramodern szerelvényével mentünk ki. Ezek a képek a Canary Wharf megálló körüli modern felhőkarcolókról készültek.
A hypermodern district at the Canary Wharf subway station - we were changing here from the subway to the Docklands Light Railway's (DLR) driverless train to Greenwich. These shots show the surrounding skyscrapers and the plaza in the middle.

Pop.Up Next, 2018
Italdesign, Audi AG and Airbus
Four trends promise to completely revolutionise the car. First, a switch to electric engines, which would significantly reduce pollution. Secondly, the driverless car, which could lead to safer and more efficient traffic systems. Third is a shift from car ownership to on-demand services, meaning less wasteful consumption. And finally - the furthest from being realised - is the flying car.
The Pop.Up Next concept car imagines these four ideas combined into one design: it can fly, is electric, autonomous and you book it using your smartphone.

Cars: Accelerating the Modern World
(November 2019 to April 2020)
As we approach another major turning point in automotive design, this exhibition looked at the role of the car in shaping the world we live in today.
Over its short 130-year history, the car has become one of the most loved, contested and influential innovations in the world. It has revolutionised manufacturing, transformed how we move, forever changing our cities, environment and economies.

Airport People Mover Driverless Trains to Main Terminal area - note the Platform Screen Doors, installed widely in China from 1998 onwards.
6/11/18 Columbus,Ohio: TWU Local 208, with the help and support of TWU Local 100, Local 252, Local 291 and Local 501, gets an important resolution passed in the Columbus City Council to protect TWU members jobs and livelihoods in the battle against driverless buses.
Two new metro stations opened to the public on October 20, 2023, extending the metro line B to Oullins-Centre and Saint-Genis-Laval Hôpital Lyon-Sud, Lyon, France. The metro line B is now fully operated driverless with brand-new Alstom metro cars.
I paid a visit to theses new metro station with my French FOCA camera PF2B (year 1948). For the photo session, I equipped my Foca a normal lens Oplar 1:3.5 f=5cm lens. This lens, with the serial number beginning by 032, was manufactured in 1947 by the Optique & Précision de Levallois (OPL) French company, most likely in its factory of Châteaudun, Eure, France. The lens was also equipped withe with a generic 36mm push-on AUV filter a metal shade-hood.
I used also a special FOCA ever-ready bag made of a mix of strong military fabric and brown leather. This type of FOCA bag appeared as soon as 1945 and was price listed until 1954 but less popular and te other full leather bags. Exemplary in good shape is a rarity. The lens cap used here is a modern plastic 36mm lens cap Heliopan, Germany.
Due to a rather "foggy" finder, I used the Foca multi-focal external finder for the 50mm lense. The focus is almost impossible to evaluate using the internal range-finder that is, however, well operating. When necessary (distances bellow ca 5-6m), exact distances were measured using a LASER meter and reporting the value found to the lens distance scale.
The Foca camera was loaded with an Ilford HP5+ 36-exposure film. It was exposed for 400 ISO using an Autometer III Minolta lightmeter fitted with a 10° finder for selective measurements privileging the shadow areas.

After exposure, the film was developed using Adox Adonal (Agfa Rodinal). I wanted to develop the film at dilution 1+25 for 6min at 20°C to get a bit more of contrast but I was distracted and I prepared wrongly by routine a 1+50 that would have required 11min, resulting of an incomplete development and a quite pale negative. I realized my mistake while considering the film before complete wash.
I thought first that the film will be not usable and I was ready to return on the site for a second session. However, when digitalized it was possible to obtain acceptable positives views. Digitization was done using a Sony A7 body (24MP) fitted to a Minolta Slide Duplicator installed on a Minolta Auto Bellows III with a lens Minolta Bellow Macro Rokkor 50mm f/3.5. The RAW files obtained were processed without intermediate files in LR and edited to the final jpeg pictures.
All views of the film are presented in the dedicated album either in the printed framed versions and unframed full-size jpeg accompanied by some documentary smartphone Vivio Y76 color pictures.
About the camera :
This Foca PF2B is an early series (model-3 version-5 circa 1948) of the Foca PF2B 35mm French range-finder camera released in 1945. The PF2B model of Foca has the 36mm screw mount of all other Foca PF (PF standing for "Petit Format"). Foca camera's were constructed in France by the company "Optique & Precision de Levallois" (OPL) in the OPL factory of Chateaudun (Eure) starting from 1946. This factory still exists under the name of SAFRAN a French company producing aerospace devices and systems. This model of PF2B was originally without flash synchronisation. This one has been probably modified after sale with the double synchro X and FP that are still operating correctly (X synchro at 1/25s)
