The Leiger is a geiger counter, GPS logger, and dosimeter all wrapped up in one. It was designed and built by Rob, host of the SparkFun weekly product videos. It's always a good idea to keep an eye on radiation levels when traveling to Chernobyl.

My recently purchased Sigma EX Aspherical 17-35mm f/2.8-4 lens for my Maxxum 5D.

Another people-free shot, virtually impossible to accomplish at the perennially busy Olive Branch Target! Mind-boggling to think of how many people walk through this store a given weekend, and how few walk through the Horn Lake store. I say few; obviously it's enough to be profitable, and it makes for a great experience (who wants to go to a crowded store?!), but it admittedly does feel light.
Anyway: this is of the snazzy Target Electronics desk. I thought this was a standard part of all stores with this style; that is to say, I thought all stores remodeled with this look got this electronics desk. But as you'll see later this summer, at least one freshly remodeled store still has its same old “boat,” just like Horn Lake. Maybe they only put these in new builds...?
I also have to say, I'm really going to miss the layout once Horn Lake inevitably remodels. Having the music and movies still in the front of the store has been awesome, and something I've grown used to. It's so weird having to go all the way to the back in this store! I know they have their reasons for putting the section there, though...

These places are public so these photos are too, but just as I tell where they came from, I'd appreciate if you'd say who :)
I saw this on eBay but the seller didn't reply and tell me what is was, much to my surprise it's a IIa, and is in full working order.
Took the top part to pieces and cleaned all the metal/glass, cleaned some green gunk off the leatherette and re-glued it down, looks almost new now.
I really like this camera, it's nice and simple (shutter a bit too basic for using though), comfortable to hold and i really like how it looks.
Exa 1c, prism viewfinder, waist-level viewfinder.
Lenses: Yashica Yashinon-DS 50mm f/1.4, Enna Lithagon 35mm f/3.5.

This item is surplus to my collection needs. I am making this available for swap or trade. Please let me know if you are interested. See these sets of images for other cameras, lenses and photographic paraphernalia that I am removing as I am sharpening the focus of my camera collection.

Old Pentax, pic taken using lens from "Retro 1", spot the difference in IQ between the two shots.
I bought this (including the classic and immaculate lens) for £30 from a car-boot sale :-)
Well I know, my soldering is awful. It took a while to get this microcontroller to work, 4 days to be exact. Now it works as designed.

Ten years separate these products. The Eee was introduced in 2007, the 620LX in 1997 or 1998. The 620LX has a very nice keyboard that you can actually touchtype on. I've typed a few documents on it using Pocket Word. Instead of using a mouse, you use a stylus on the touchscreen. The stylus stores in the side of the 620LX. The Eee uses a customized version of Xandros, the 620LX uses Windows CE 2.0. The Eee has an SD/SDHC/MMC slot; the 620LX has a CF slot. I picked up a couple of the 620LXs from my office, which was going to throw them away. Can't let a totally functional piece of electronics get thrown out.
Jan 29 2017 [Unexpected] Tragic news out of Quebec City tonight as we are learning of a shooting in a Quebec City mosque that killed at least 5 people. The news is unravelling very slowly so details aren't all that clear at the moment. So sad to hear this.. my heart goes out to the victims and their families. One minute someone is praying in peace and security and in the next minute the world's paranoia comes and takes their lives. I know all Canadians will stand up against this and support one another to end this type of hatred and sensless violence. It just seems crazy I even have to say that.. what a world we're creating...
The name suggests SUV but in reality the new Volvo is more an AWD version of the new hatch.
It seems that Europeans like the idea of a more rugged, capable AWD variant of a popular model more than we do here in Australia where our love affair with SUVs shows no signs of abating.

Established in the 1980s and doesn't appear to have changed much since then; still has the 081 phone number on one of the signs.

Miranda Sesorex is a system SLR camera with a wide interchangeability of both viewfinders and lenses. It is TTL progression from the Automex models in 1967.
There are seven almost-the-same but distinct versions of Sensorex.
There are two very peculiar features in Miranda: the interchangeable prism (the Nikon F was the only other camera at the time with this feature), and the front-mounted shutter release.
Low noise shutter and vibration-free mirror mechanism.
After removing the pentaprism, the camera is fully functional, can still meter and focus, especially handy for close-up work.
Sensorex was the flagship model at that time. Miranda was apparently the first Japanese SLR manufacturer, and for a time, Miranda used to compete with Nikon and Topcon for build quality and optics.
The Miranda was also sold as Soligor in Europe.
The Miranda Camera Company, originally named the Orion Camera Company, manufactured cameras in Japan between 1955 and 1978. Their first camera was the Miranda T. Unlike many Japanese made cameras, Miranda did not make their own lenses and had to rely on other manufacturers to supply them.
Many Miranda SLRs had advanced or sophisticated features for their day. Almost all Miranda SLR's shared the same basic lens mount, but the mount complexity increased over the years to accommodate more aperture and metering controls.
Unable to keep up with the increasing manufacturing automation of the larger manufacturers, and the increasingly sophisticated electronics of competing cameras, Miranda ceased producing cameras.

The famous SLR 35 mm camera of the golden age of Japanese optical manufacturing. This camera was likely produced between 1971 to 1973. The Minolta MC Rokkor lenses presented here at of the period (early MC lenses) as well as the Minolta camera bag.
