Treasures from a few recent flea market days. It has been so good to get back to them! All were cancelled around here until about a month ago.
The biggest bargain was the Barbie/Ken clothing for $10. When the seller said that price, I got my money out as fast as a could!!
Introduced in 2012, the X-Pro1 was the first mirrorless interchangeable-lens camera from Fujifilm. As with most "firsts," the X-Pro1 has developed a following, though the newer X-Pro2 promises to be even more popular. That said, I found an old X-Pro1 in a camera flea market. The seller didn't know anything about it except that it's being sold "as is," had only one discharged battery and no charger. He was asking a hundred bucks for it and I offered $75. He counter-offered meeting halfway.
I could have just walked away, since I had no way of knowing if it will turn out to be an expensive "brick" or paper weight. But the gambler in me won out. I took the risk and took the camera home. Shure nuff, it has a couple of problems. And then some. Foremost is the dreaded "lens error" that seem to plague most Fuji cameras. The manufacturer's site states that "it is the failure of the camera to communicate with the lens" and suggests that if, after several "remove lens, remove battery, reset to default" recommendations fail to resolve the issue, to send the camera back to the retailer (not to them, the manufacturer, mind you!) Hahaha!
Then, there's the "sticky" shutter that gets stuck to "closed" every now and then.
To get around the "camera/lens failure to communicate" issue, I mounted my legacy Pentax Super Takumar f1.4/50mm manual lens. No more "lens error" messages. :P
The sometimes-stuck, sometimes-not, shutter I was able to jolt back into sometimes-normal operations by several "bursts" in "continuous high" mode shutter actuations.
And I now have an X-Pro1 that works (almost) all the time. Hahaha!

In Hyères, south of France, a flea market take place every weekend on the parking of the Magic World fair. A market of bargains and treasures. A place for recycle and non wasting. This is a portrait series of people who come to buy objects and collect free things after the market. - 2013 --

I have no idea what this little bug was in my garden. At first I thought it was a little spotless ladybird but i'm not convinced. So any ID would be most grateful! HGGT Thank You Alison for the ID

Rather than be detrimental, the Flea Market that was on when we visited Lublin Old Town added plenty more photographic opportunities.

From Wikipedia : "Lublin, by some tourists can be called "a little Krakow", and this is true by the citizens sharing a number of Lesser Poland traditions, historic architecture and a unique ambiance, especially in the Old Town. Catering to students, who account for 35% of the population, the city offers a vibrant music and nightclub scene. Lublin has many theatres and museums and a professional orchestra, the Lublin Philharmonic. Old buildings, even ruins, create magic and unique atmosphere of the renaissance city. Lublin’s Old Town has cobbled streets and traditional architecture. Many venues around Old Town enjoy an architecture applicable for restaurants, art galleries, clubs, apart from entertainment this area has also been designed to place small businesses and prestigious offices. The Old Town Hall and Tribunal in the Market Square is surrounded by burgher houses and winding lanes"
