Happy to say reformatting went well here and things almost back up to speed.
In photography we have had the idea that a camera is no more
than the lens it sees through beaten into us. This is true. Oddly
enough, at the same time a lens can be defined by the camera it's
attached to. Some time ago I didn't like the
Sony 55-210 E mount
variable aperture zoom. Oddly enough, now I do. The slow AF of the unit
made it rather pointless and overpriced, the the quick AF of the A600
solves this issue, and it's really a joy to use on this camera. Decent
optical quality, cheap price, light weight and fast AF. That about sums
it up.
This thing has been going around facebook to post 5 B&W photos n 5
days and tag 5 other people. It's a very facebook thing and I realize
that thankfully there is a world outside this mess. So it's a good
excuse to share some B&W photos here even though I am quite tied
into the world of facebook for better or worse.
I had a Sony NEX-5R converted to 720nm infrared under the
impression that it gave similar to a standard value exposure levels.
That's somewhat true in daylight, as it's about a stop less.
Once any kind of cloud cover comes in it's much, much darker with
infrared.
