I started this forum for any collecting hobby and it turned into my camera collecting and using forum. I use it mostly to keep a record of my photo adventures. Nobody but me seems to have photo adventures that visit here....but however. I have so many cameras now that I forget which is which and which ones work and which ones don't. If you have cameras and adventures you would be welcome to post here.

Never rains but it pours
I found a 1GB card in may camera bag and so went down to the village this morning , there is a vide grenier today.
I then came home and took these 3.
Wellesley full image.
Same image cropped to the centre.
Still haven't been able to download a Camera RAW plugin from Adobe but at least i managed to find the images that I lost from yesterday morning.
This is one hell of a camera, now, back to the manual

Not bad for first run. I particularly like the clarity, sharpness, and color of the flowers. The one of your wife is a good photo but the camera shake must have been intentional by something you chose in the camera settings ....unless the room was really dark.

Here's one I like from my Sony RX100. I'll upload it at the size I recorded it. 3888x2592. It's a jpg as the camera produced. No photoshop or tinkering on my part.

That's really sharp with apparent excellent color replication. I don't think any camera, at any price or configuration, could have done better. Good shot.
If I took a photo, just as technically good, of a case of beer I'm pretty sure I couldn't talk the owner into letting me keep the case in a million years. Good for you on the commercial arrangement.

The labels are not exactly symmetrically spaced...... tell them you need another
set of full bottles to do the shoot over again........

Peace is that brief, quiet moment in history.......... when everybody stands around reloading.
