This is neat stuff if you are beyond auto mode in photography. To be ready for tomorrow I always check my memory cards and have spent a day or two charging batteries. Rather than random shooting tomorrow I need to get at least 6 good shots. Now you might think that is easy but a great photographer can take 2,000 and get one good shot. Old school photographers are used to paying a minimum of 2 bucks a piece if they developed their own film. That was with bulk loaders etc. So you would go to an event like East Bend with maybe three rolls of high speed film usually that was 108 shots unless you were backed by a newspaper and had a bulk roll and motor drive. You have spent 200 bucks if you sent them off or one long night in the dark room if you wanted your shots in the morning paper. Some of us in the group are learning photography as well as interested in Motocross. So there are sure shots and then creative shots. Photographers shooting racing can’t resist creative shots. So just within ten minutes I shot a quick example of creative vs standard. I only gave myself a quick shot. Not one where I could follow you across the track. Like I had a piece of jump I covered and couldn’t watch for a distance. I pick a focus point and hold the lock focus button even if I am on manual because Auto Focus is too slow for you guys. Shots can be called pan shots where the shutter speed is slow. The object is followed and it blurs the background. I nailed the plate on the car in a pan and blurred the woods. That car was doing 60 easy. The guys in the truck were shot with a higher shutter speed. The woods aren’t blurred as much. It was a pan shot. A photographer would say it was a hand held pan. Using a Tripod would be better but with a long lens it takes practice to do it hand held. The best can do a thing called zoom pan. It blurs the background and kind of sucks you into the photo. So I’ll mix things up a lot. I do know though that I am intentionally shooting with a higher depth of field because in a cropped shot if you are in the way background you might still want that shot even if you are a bit out of focus. You will learn to spot these things after awhile. There may be a test! And tomorrow when you are racing concentrate on the race and not hot dogging for the camera. After my initial experiment I will try to include as many as I can.
Dashi is my selected piece for the bienale of youth european artist.

As I live on very limited solar and hydro electric power, I try to reduce my need for electricity wherever comfortably possible. I don't like to do without my denatal irrigator, so I tried to come up with a manual version. The case has a tyre valve, and is air tight. When it is full of water and I pump air into it, the water comes out under pressure when I open the valve. Problem is, the pressure then goes down very quickly, needing frequent pumping to keep it up. On balance, I found it too much hard work, especially whilst having to do the cleaning at the same time. One for the tinkering 101 room, though a lovely looking gaget that would not look out of place in a Victorian home. My "Kitty Waterjet" actually uses so little power, for only a brief time, that I continued using the electrical version, though to save on the power the inverter uses, I converted it to run on 12 Volt.
The one on the left has a 49mm filter thread and made by Komine, and the one on the right has a 55mm filter size and made by Kiron.
This is a test picture I took with my new 15$ all manual Zuiko 50mm f/1.8 I got on eBay. It's probably 20 years old or so, but is it decent condition. It acts as 100mm since the sensor on my camera is twice as small as the film negatives this lens was made for. It's a prime lens, the opposite of a zoom lens, meaning its focal lenght is fixed. To zoom in you take two steps forward!
At the widest aperture the depth of field is so small that it's actually too short, as this picture shows. It's best used stopped down to f/2.8 or f/4. The wide aperture could come handy for low light situations however. I primarily bought the lens for portraits, where a blured background is desirable.
One of the downside with this lens, aside from being manual focus only, is that the EXIF lacks focal lenght and aperture information. This happens because the lens doesn't communicate electronically with the camera body. The solution would be to buy a higher end Zuiko Digital lens, but that would cost me about 500$US. Not for now! Otherwise I like this lens a lot, it gives great results, and the manual focus makes it pretty fun to use.
This is also my first Flickr picture with an ID above 200000000. Flickr crossed 100000000 last winter, so it took about 6 months to double in size, after taking two years to reach the initial 100000000. Wow.
A1 - I did the Where's Waldo concept with the manual. Can you find the manual? How many pennies are in the picture? How many pens can you find?......
