Macro Mondays 'inside electronics' theme.
I thought I would have to miss this week as I really didn't think I had anything interesting to fit the theme. I took this shot just after the theme was announced and almost discarded it, but this afternoon had another look and decided it was worth processing and submitting to the group, and at least I haven't missed a week.
This section of my old mobile measures approx 2.5 x 1.7 cm.
On the day I took this I was up to 238,822 miles on my 1995 Eurovan camper. The moon ranges from 225,623 to 252,088 miles from earth with an average distance of of 238,855 miles (384,400 km) from Earth, so I've driven the average distance to the moon. I've got a lot of good memories from that.

Finally, my 3 essays are completed for Uni and I've managed to tidy up my massive stack of books from the side of my desk
My eMac is now at the other side of the room

Well I was not happy with the last camera I had purchased, a Sony Alpha 7 II (full frame) and 24-240mm lens. It was a fantastic camera and had all the latest bells and whistles. I did not like the weight (body and lens), battery life (approx. 100 shots) or the lens (shallow DOF and heavy). Since I use my camera most in travelling around the world, it was a concern. Cleaning the sensor was also a worry to me also because of the way it floats on magnets - I never did clean it and would not do it often.
After using it only a short time I bought this one (Sony A6300). I had a NEX-7 before and enjoyed the weight and lens for travelling etc..
This is a Sony A6300, just came out, very fast focus and light weight. I did not want a kit lens but my camera shop worked well with me on the returning the other camera and prices. It might be handy having a small lens and they did not have a body only in stock so got the kit lens with it. Kit Lens is 16-50mm (3.5-5.6)
I also purchased a 18-200mm (3.5-6.3) lens as it is a fantastic one to travel with and had it before.
One thing I will really like about this camera is I can make it TOTALLY silent, in both noise and visually (turn off monitor and AF Illumination assist).
The world’s fastest (0.05 sec) autofocus, featuring the world’s most (425) phase-detection AF points, and high-density tracking AF Technology take 4D FOCUS farther.
I have to admit: when I found this pencil drawing while clearing out my apartment I was really impressed by myself ;-) I drew this in 1990, I was 25 years old and I've had the patience of a saint whie drawing. Today I'm sure that I would get ants in the pant when I had to draw this drawing again.

This is my Micro Four Third lens collections. Focal length from 7mm to 200mm equivalent to 14mm to 400mm in 35mm terms. I believe the Lumix lenses is made of Leica glass
Still I am missing a telephoto macro lens and there is none available in this format. The only option is go to other brand such as Canon or Nikon or even legacy lens. Or I can opted for Sigma 105mm f2.8 from Four Third format which will give me a slow SAF capability
Setup:
3 white framed canvas - bought it very cheap from art shop
Slick Mini II tripod
Olympus E-P2
OM to Micro 4/3 adapter
Zuiko OM 50/1.4
Setup the 3 canvases one for the base, one for the background and one on the left as a reflector as the natural light is on the right.
Set the camera to Aperture Priority, ISO 400 mounted on a tripod.
Using the magnifying setting I magnify the focus area 10x and turn the focus ring manually until the image look sharp on the LCD and press the shutter button
