new camera pics
Posted: Tue Jul 28, 2015 12:01 am
after a 10 year "breather" away from my rebel x, 400 ISO 35mm film, beta club convention contests and 1 hour film development, i finally got a digital camera a month ago. after researching hard and knowing the essentials of what i wanted (mainly portability- really really really portable), i was pleasantly surprised to see that best buy had the sony a6000's marked down for the newer models coming out, and so i pulled the trigger on the one with the 18-55mm kit lens. i also bought the sony 55-210 mm lens to get me started as a walk-around tele lens (hardly telephoto, i know).
please excuse the poor quality- several of the osprey photos are cropped pretty heavily and my lack of photography prowess is clearly evident with the lightning photo sharply focused in on...nothing. i wanted to share the cropped photo of the skeet to at least have something to brag about- my cynergy's superb pattern. i am still constantly playing around with manual mode and the other settings, and i already have well over 2000 photos. as of last count, i think seven of them were worth a damn. these new cameras have a lot more bells and whistles than when i lost interest years ago. (before ya know it, we'll be doing fly-by photography of Pluto or something
) I am having fun though. I am pumped for fall to come around. Hopefully some up close and personal encounters will happen for an opportunity for some good pictures to be made.
