Here's a shot from the first test roll from the new 6x9 pincam. I can't figure out the edge banding issue, except that it might be a function of the modest light leaks from the seams of the film back. The back didn't have any light seals except in a couple spots, so I cut some and installed them today before shooting another test roll.
This was with Fuji Acros and about 2-3 second exposure. Developed in EcoPro (Xtol) 1+1 for 10 minutes.
Brian Cuyler suggested the name "Kevin" (after the Bird of Unknown Species in the Disney film "Up"), so the new pincam is hereafter known as "Kevin".
Using two GN Auto Nikkor 45mm 1:2.8 lenses in a comparison test mounted to a Nikon Z5 via an FTZ adapter which was then placed on a Benro TAD28C with an IB0 panoramic ballhead. I set up the tripod on top of a manhole cover so it would be easier to level it.
The 764085 lens has one improvement over the older 714595 lens in that it has a better formula of multi-coating on the elements.
The older lens suffers from a fungus infection, and I was only able to get the rear element pair out to clean most of it off. I have no idea where my Ponds cream has gotten to, as that is the best stuff to get fungus off a lens, so I had to settle for plain old 91% isopropyl alcohol and lens cleaning fluid.
I took a series of photos 90 degrees apart in order to get the different lighting conditions and angles. I put the camera in full manual and only made exposure and focusing adjustments. I may have missed on the focus because I haven't used the camera for quite a while and am not used to interpreting the focus assist readouts. I used the original HN-4 hood on the newer lens, and my cobbled-up replacement one on the older lens. I can see no difference in performance between the two hoods.
The lenses themselves, that's another matter. Besides any obvious differences in focus, I find the older lens not as contrasty as the newer one. But I wouldn't say the older lens is bad. It could still use a full cleaning, though.

testing out lighting setup for a concept shoot...
1 yongnuo 560 half-power on a white umbrella set to bounce camera upper left
on 1/2 power 6 feet from the model.
looks like i need another flash for the background..
Here you see the effect of the different ISO settings of the Panasonic Lumix LX3, the upper crops are jpeg (out of cam) with noise reduction -2. In the middle you can see an ISO 800 image with the same jpeg settings except that nr is +2.
Below you find 2 RAW crops with ISO 800 and 1600.
Edited SpaceX (probably, although I got this from a NASA source) image of a static test firing of a Falcon 9 rocket. This is the rocket that will carry a man-rated capsule to orbit for testing prior to launching people.
Original caption: At NASA Kennedy Space Center’s Launch Complex 39A, the nine engines of a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket roar to life in a brief static firing on Jan. 24, 2019. The test was part of checkouts prior to its liftoff for Demo-1, the inaugural flight of one of the spacecraft designed to take NASA astronauts to and from the International Space Station. NASA has worked with SpaceX and Boeing in developing Commercial Crew Program spacecraft to facilitate new human spaceflight systems launching from U.S. soil with the goal of safe, reliable and cost-effective access to low-Earth orbit destinations such as the space station.
I downloaded something called 'Comic Life', which gives you a series of comics pages templates and lets you easily drag photos from your iPhoto store into the page. Voila, easy photo-comics...
Daft, and if you have an actual real artist probably a bit redundant, but actually quite tempting as a way of narrating eg how recent events went (the bottom row of photos are from CAPTION2004, the middle row are from the first Web and Minicomics Thing). Also, check out the speech balloons! Verdict without much testing yet: I can see this being a good hook, and fun, and a good way of practicing writing comics to boot.
testing basic movements (just head, arms and hands) using a handmade clay doll that i've just finish doing.
made this short film as a "try-out", looking for improve my stop motion's techniques and use my knowledge to shot advertisement videos in the future.
built a Lady Gaga figure cause she is one of the music icons my class team chose to represent pop music (and because I just love her) :)
she is made of biscuit, clay, play-doh, wire and some recycled material.
unfortunately my camera had just a few shots left, so this first clip is really short.
thanks for watching :)
Fiz uns testes na Quanta com manchas e curti.

Test flight of quadcopter and gopro. Flying above my adopted home - Tynemouth Village. My house is off to the right behind The Grand Hotel.
Just pleased not to have destroyed it - first RC flight ever made of any kind.
Idea is to take setup to Montserrat next month to get shots of the destroyed parts of the island without going into the exclusion zone (Montserrat has an active volcano). Have to get much better at controlling this thing if hope to do that.
