I just wanted to see what the capabilities of the different cameras we have here at home are like.
First is the camcorder from 2004, a Canon ZR85, in the middle is the Canon Powershot A620 from 2005, and last is the 2008 Samsung NV24HD.
I was a little surprised just how bad the Samsung did in this test, and how well the Camcorder did. I really can't get over the amount of detail it pulled out at high zoom. I think the optics, certainly more designed for zoom than wide angles, must have more to do with it than the digital sensor, which just doesn't give very good quality images or videos, otherwise.
The camcorder has taken maybe 30 hours of video in its lifetime, and maybe 100 still photos, the A620 has taken well over 200,000 photos, mostly failed nighttime timelapses with chdk, and the Samsung hasn't taken more than a thousand shots, but if you want a truly pocket-sized camera that can take an interior shot, or a high definition video, without having to ask everybody to keep backing up, and standing closer together, the 24mm-wide (equivalent) lens on the Samsung is the only way to go, and its video quality is actually superior than the camcorder, at least it seems like it on a TV screen.
Too bad she-who-used-to-be-obeyed will be taking it with her when she goes.

Overall the pictures are okay. I don't think I'd be using it that often, the 1/80 shutter speed is just a bit too slow unless you stop and stand still.
Also it likes to eat film.

Spent some hours to make an attempt at making a lith-copy of a film negative, on kodalith film.
Procedure:
Exposure time around 4 seconds for a 4/5 copy (durst enlarger 250 watt bulb, 80mm f 16)
Need to develop under inxpection, development time around 2-3 minutes on kodak d8 diluted 1-4. Have to pull it at the right time, or all of the film will go black.
This creates a positive copy, this is again contact copyed on another sample of kodalith film (could possibly try other high contrast film). Exposure for this was 19 seconds, 50cm height, 80mm lens f4, durst 805 250 watt (for contact copy light). Development time 3-4 minutes in diluted lith enlarger. Lith enlarger in tray seems to loose efficiency with time, so also need to visual inspect here.
Goal here is to make a negative that would be possible to print with a silk-print technique, this needs a highcontrast 1-bit picture.
Good internet source for working with kodalith:

This isn't the final, but it's very close! The orange piece was mostly used to test out various adhesives and see which one would make for the best glue joint while also being the most hidden and clear during assembly

Haven't given the whole realism thing a go before s thought I'd see how it comes out. Not really that big a fan of realism stuff but quite pleased with these.
Done pretty quickly and not too neat but just tests.
I test drove this at Available Car in Castle Donington, Leicestershire.
If you are going to have a Volvo estate, then why not have the most nutty one available right?
The XC70 is nutty. 210mm of ground clearance, big plain plastic bumpers, M+S tyres, 4 wheel drive... even the dog guard is standard equipment (its is on gas struts so you can fold it up into the headlining when not required).
However, not is all it seems with this XC70. Its missing an important element that turns a nutty car into a nutty car that doesn't really make sense.
Excerpt from here: www.carmagazine.co.uk/car-reviews/volvo/volvo-xc70-drive-...
"On looks alone, this Volvo XC70 may seem like old news, yet it puts a whole new twist on the urban off-roader theme. Why? Because, despite the jacked-up stance, it’s actually front-wheel drive.
What’s happened to the 4x4 version? Don’t panic, it’s still on sale. The front-wheel drive XC70 has been introduced along with a front-drive XC60, both cars being cheaper and less polluting than the 4x4 variants that sired them."
So, this one isn't for us with its missing its 4 wheel drive and in basic trim (for Volvo). A more sensible choice would be the plain old V70.
This is a test shot.
I've never used this new computer before, not shot a photo to edit up in a few years (I'm getting back to this camera thing), Canon's DDP and Photomatix have really improved since I used them about 10 years back.
I'm working on getting me sea leg again,so to speak.
A loop around the neighborhood and testing out the Canon 80d with 10-22 lense that I have in for rental.
Si narra che alla Kalsa, quartiere arabo di Palermo, tanno, vi abitasse una bellissima fanciulla che trascorreva tutte le sante jornate a curare i fiori del suo balcone. Sempre tanno, un giovane moro, passando da quella via, perse la testa per la dolcezza di quel viso. Le dichiarò subito il suo amore e la ragazza, addumata dall’audacia del pretendente, ricambiò il sentimento.
Purtroppo o per fortuna, la dolcissima donzella si sgamò che il giovane (chiddu ca faccia nivura) era già sposato, aveva un paio di figli e stava per tornare dalla sua famiglia in Oriente. E allora che fare?
Notte e notte, tanno, gli scippò la testa, ne fece una grasta in cui ci chiantò dell’odoroso basilicò che espose in bella mostra sul balcone di casa sua. La pianta, ogni matina, fu arruciata con le lagrime della sconsolata pulzella; crebbe rigogliosa destando l’invidia degli abitanti del quartiere che, per non essere da meno, all'ingresso di ogni abitazione misero una testa di moro stavolta di terracotta affinché si sapesse come funzionavano le cose da quelle parti!!!
Niente paura...era tanto tempo fa :)
