Tomorrows mountain is Scafell Pike. And after much thought, the camera of choice for the day is the Ricoh GR.
Much as I am loving the Sony A7r , I thinks the GR will give me a better view of the mountain, and more keepers. Plus I am happier knowing I can trust the battery life. The weather is another issue. Light rain and drizzle forecast. It's easier to protect the GR. I hope to get at least 5 shots worthy of posting. Buster and Taz will be staying at home for this one.
I know the camera can deliver but can I ! Pop back about 21-00gmt tomorrow to find out.
Sorry I'm late. Fell asleep. Must be an age thing. And my knees are having a go at me today !
Anyway. Photo wise I found the day rather uninspiring. It was nice enough but quite hazy and
lacking in contrast. I think the GR performed to the best of it's ability but I didn't.
Not a total loss though. (Unlike the view from the summit !) ;-)
