This was yesterday - another sunset (sorry! I know they have been done to death, but its been a recent obsession of mine)
It looks like you’re above the clouds. How did you get up there?
I’m on a big hill.
I didn’t realise the hill was that high.
I spent yesterday afternoon in a studio doing a charity costume shoot and if I get chance I may stick a few up here. My take a little time as I have rather a lot to process.
Forgotten lenses. Here’s one that hasn’t seen the light of day since last year. I really must get out more.
Is the Lumix lens equal to the Leica lens d00d. I have been looking at the Lumix cameras.
Hey … There are lots of Micro Four Thirds lenses, all good for the price: Panasonic, PanasonicLeica, Olympus, Sigma, Samyang, Voigtlander, Laowa & more.
IMO Panasonic lenses are good on every level, you get what you pay for. PansonicLeica are a little better but a lot more expensive, the zooms, especially, are bigger & heavier.
Panasonic G (Micro Four Thirds) cameras are wonderful (I love the little yet powerful bodies, as above), and there are some beautiful little prime (fast, big aperture, fixed focal length) lenses.
Scot, I’d be delighted to talk more about the M43 system … different lenses, what makes them different & why.
Thanks for your reply d00d. I was a keen on photography in my young days and Leica cameras were regarded as a cut above. I was intrigued by some Lumix cameras sporting a Leica lens. A lot of the modern digital terms I do not understand.
Leica still make cameras, super expensive ones, and lenses to fit: L-mount and M-mount.
M43 cameras, made by both Panasonic and Olympus, take their own lenses plus a range of others with the M43-mount including those with the PanasonicLeica (PL) name. So you can see a PL lens on an Olympus camera and an Olympus lens on a Panasonic camera. There is no PL camera body as such, but all PanasonicLumix cameras have either the Leica word on the lens (on fixed lens pocket cameras) or the discrete L on the body, see my pic above.
Thanks d00d. That is very interesting.
A couple pictures from our Alf walk, the path is a bridle path where you’re more likely to see a Unicorn rather than any horse, but thats another story
I have never been more busy with my camera than I have recently, and it’s taking me ages to get through them all. I have about 1,500 to get through, along with my PC which is starting to cause me some problems.

There’s got to be a couple of keepers there.
Me too! I would rather have an overgrown garden, but the neighbours complain so I just reduce the trimming to the absolute minimum
