New Medium Format TLR, it has so many knobs and dials, it gets confusing.
It also has the special 'blue dot' 80mm f/2.8 lens.
Photos dont do it justice, its built like a tank, heavy, solid and pretty damn big.
Yet to take photos with it, still need to buy some 120 Film.
We named him 'Chuck Norris' :).

On the Birth of a Son.
Families, when a child is born
Want it to be intelligent.
I, through intelligence,
Having wrecked my whole life,
Only hope the baby will prove
Ignorant and stupid.
Then he may crown a tranquil life
By becoming the president

testing out an old manual focus 50mm f1.4 nikkor lens on the d200. input the right settings in the d200 and the metering system works fine. but of course, everything is manual.
need to get a new contact prescription, though, I think and manual focusing can be tricky without a split screen or at least focus screen designed for manual focus.
amazing how that lens still works as if it was new. I bought it for my old fe2 back in the 80's.
The title is a little misleading. I actually staged this one. The dog is Bucky, a Lab puppy (he's only one year old) that my wife and I took care of for the weekend. I offered him the cap and he gladly took it in his mouth. Amazingly, he didn't chomp it before I could snap the photo and take it back out!
Feb 11, 2008 ~ I didn't want to alarm any of my Flickr friends, even though I knew you would understand more than anyone else...
I had a close call... (you might want to sit down if you aren't - and if you stand at your computer, then you might want to rethink that, unless you have back issues...wait a minute...I've gotten off subject...)
Are you sitting?
I LOST MY LENS CAP!
It was so scary...I knew just where I lost it, but I couldn't find it and I had to leave the store. I left my phone number and tried to tell them how special it was (w/o seeming like a weirdo - ya know!)
Well, Hallejuah and Praise the LORD!
They called today - they found it!
It's back home safe and snug, I told it I would be more careful now...maybe even buy one of those lens cap leashes.
It said no to the leash...that seemed lame to it!
Thanks for listening...and understanding!
Give your lens cap a hug today!
Sponsored by complete and utter boredom! My love has been working a lot lately and I find myself lonesome and bored. I have to do something with my time or I will go insane. Or maybe I already have?
Still stress testing the Oly 15mm Æ’/8 LensCap lens ... finally getting outside during the 6 hours of daylight, before the forecast snow starts...got my LVF-2 last night and had to see how it does.

These are the relatively small sheets of Efke PL 25 orthochromatic sheet film that I bought to try to use with my great grandfather's old camera. It used glass plates that are approximately the same size as these sheets, so I'm going to try sandwiching a sheet of film between plates to simulate the thickness of the original plates. The camera has no shutter and relies on the lenscap for a shutter, so I bought the slowest film that I could find. I'll post results later.
A new series I just decided to start. I'm going to take creative and inspiring photographs using my lens cap in the places I visit.
Equipment:
Rebel XT
Canon EF-S 10-22mm
⌀77mm Lens Cap
Farewell, then, Lens Cap for a 12-60mm Olympus lens. You leave behind a quality lens shorn of your protection, falling in the line of duty somewhere on the Paris metro system.
It is unkind to speak ill of the departed, but in this time of despair we must be honest with ourselves and each other. The only surprising thing about this tragedy is that it took so long to occur, given your predilection for leaping from the lens at the slightest brush.
We must reflect upon your creator, the good Lord Olympus, and ask him why He cannot create a lens cap across His entire range of otherwise brilliant lenses that does not suck wholeheartedly.
Lo then, for the great circle of life must continue, and we can only hope that your generic 99p replacement that, I note, comes with a lanyard which recent experience suggests will be useful, will be at least as good as you were.
Which isn't saying much. Until then, I'm patenting my temporary protection method as the revolutionary LenSockâ„¢ - It's Better Than Nothing. Purchase your LenSock at any reputable photographic or underwear stockist.

In the cold the second shutter curtain became hesitant and that is if you look at it positively, I had to use the lenscap to end exposures. I have too many camera's that do not function well.
In the top of the picture you can see the film markings. What to think of that. Anyways it shows I kept the developing time short.
I thought the plants were Greater Yellow Rattlers (Rhinanthus angustifolius) but after some searching I'm not so sure anymore
Grote Ratelaar ?
Here's my current gear since january 2010.
Panasonic Lumix DMC-GH1 with a zoom lens Lumix G Vario HD 14-140/f4.0-5.8 ASPH. MEGA O.I.S. (35mm equivalent is 28-280mm)
The blue things on the right are Verbatim 16GB and Transcend 8GB SDHC Class 6 memory cards. And on the left an extra Li-Ion battery of 1250mAh.
And probably some more stuff coming in the future :)
Found this huge mushroom out at Orroral Valley. I thought it was a 'snakesbread' or platform fungus, until I looked underneath, to find it had a massive stem. Never seen one so big!
That's the lenscap from my 70-300mm lens there...
Built a light box from cardboard box, poster board, cut up t-shirt for diffusers on top and sides, two lamps with 60w daylight bulbs and two desk lamps from Wal-mart.
fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cimeti%c3%a8re_de_Belleville
Le cimetière de Belleville est situé dans le quartier de Belleville à l'angle de la rue de Belleville et de la rue du Télégraphe dans le XXe arrondissement de Paris. Ce cimetière de 1,80 hectare de surface accueille 3210 concessions.
Historiquement ce lieu faisait partie de la propriété de la famille Le Peletier de Saint-Fargeau qui possédaient depuis 1695 un domaine d'une cinquantaine d'hectares sur la butte. Après différentes étapes de morcellement et de vente de la propriété, un cimetière est finalement inauguré en 1808 pour faire face à la saturation de ceux de l'ancienne église Saint-Jean-Baptiste de Belleville. Le lieu a été auparavant utilisé pour des expériences de télégraphe optique par Claude Chappe de 1790 à 1798, comme en témoigne la plaque à droite de l'entrée principale, car le cimetière se trouve au point le plus haut de Paris à 128,503 m.
