With duct-tape? Of course it's fixed, why wouldn't it? Can't imagine my life without duct-tape.

Very curious: who's the owner of all this gear and what's the occasion?

Yeah, that must be it. I assumed that Mike took the photo in Finland, but Norway is more likely because of the "klinikken" lettering. So much for my careful studying of the photo...

Google Translate translates "unntatt" into "sleep". I guess it means bicycle riders are allowed to ignore the one-way traffic directive?

Read the review on phillipreeve.net on a Voigtländer 4.5/15 in M-mount. From what I've read, performance on the Sony A7R2 and a Nikon Z camera should be comparable, i.e. bad, because both Sony and Nikon have a rather thick sensor stack as opposed to the much thinner sensor stack of Leica M-mount...

Fotomuseum Den Haag (The Hague), Boris Mikhailov exhibition

Starting a theme for myself: bicycles. As this still is a broad theme, especially in The Netherlands, I expect to narrow it down further, but I will let that happen. An ever-growing familiar sight: rental bikes, left behind at more or less random places.

Welcome, hopefully we won't get you another burn-out! Just kidding, friendly folks here. I hope you'll find joy in photography again (or anything else really).

Cul-de-sac in a museum

My eye gets drawn to that weird contraption in the upper left corner.

Wild guess: this may have something to do with daylight savings time of the week before and X-H2S synchronizing with a phone around half time.

Poignant photo. Makes me sad to see people in such a bad state.

And the dog makes the picture for me: it's doing the real exercise instead of the slomo tai-chi movements :).

Completely puzzled. It looks like it should have some utility, but for the life of me I can't figure out what that would be.

It's a shame Nikon doesn't make something like that anymore. With a modern sensor and autofocus performance it would make for a nice alternative to the Leica Q's or Richoh GR's with that same field of view.

A hot shoe adapter with PC connector, to enable off-camera flash with my old Minolta 200X flash and the Leica Q3. I also used a Nikon AS-15 adapter on the camera, a PC extension cord and a male-male PC cord. Had to try several before I found a combo that actually worked; these PC connectors are...

Was experimenting with flash outdoors when I saw this butterfly on the garbage container.

A tribute to the tube-era radios. Nice!

You mention a Leica Q as an option. If you go that route, I'd advise to go for the Leica Q3 even for B&W, like I did myself. The theoretical slight loss in detail and dynamic range aren't important to me. The reasons why I wouldn't want to have a monochrome camera: No color ever. Duh. You'll...

Totally agree. I think it's the smallest lens available for Sony E-mount (APS-C), ideal for street photography. I rebought it after the first sample's focusing mechanism broke, I now mainly use it for infrared photography on a full-spectrum A3000.

I read that too. I have experimented extensively with f/2.8 at ISO 100 and it just doesn't work. At shorter distances the picture is almost completely dark with these settings. I tried if any of the other settings (manual output, S1/off/S2) made any difference, they didn't. Edit: meanwhile, on...

Yes, it's a nice little flash. The Auto setting is indeed supposed to be the ancient type where a sensor on the flash reads the output and cuts off the current through the flash bulb once the exposure is correct. Too bad it doesn't work correctly. At shorter distances (somewhere below 2 m) it...

A small Godox flash, the Retro Lux Junior. It features manual settings for output 1/1...1/64 and also an Auto setting. Can be synched to another flash on its first or second flash. A cord for sync, enabling off-camera use as well. I instantly would fire the moron who designed the Auto circuit...

Is that your husband's stuff or just a yummy location? :D

I still have the Contax 2.8/28mm and I use it when I want this focal length on my Sony FF cameras, as there are no native high-quality options IMHO, though I didn't try the Viltrox FE 1.8/28 yet. I've long given up hope that Zeiss would bring a Loxia 28mm :cry:.

Intriguing, that little fence on the roof tiles

A Leica USB-C dual battery charger, shown here with the Anker power bank and its USB-C cable. Leica also offers a matching cable and a mains power supply as separate products, at Leica prices of course; fortunately I already have loads of compatible chargers and cables. This charger allows me to...
