re-learning my camera
I'm looking for a new camera. I found that my old lenses are EF type, so as I search, I need to ensure that there is an adapter for the EF lense to be used on the perspective. Have to relearn the lingo such as f-stop, aperture, shutter speed, blah blah and see if the new digital camera has the capability. Then it comes down to what I want and what I need to pay for. I started getting pulled to the super duper megapixel and the 8K and up stuff. Not sure if I need the video side to be that big as my tv is only 4K.
 


I managed to get "officially" old and no one caught on.

While I was born on a Monday, today's is a Friday. I can't really draw SS yet, I do have my official you're old card.

I managed to to the loose tv antenna fixed and the peach tree clipped back even with a "bad" hand. Grandson was able to help me get the trimmings stacked up so I'll be able to get them loaded later to take to the limb yard later when the weather is nicer and limb yard is open. I don't like to go there after the rain as the mud gets the truck mucked up.

Supposed to get anything from 1 to 2 inches of rain through tomorrow evening.

Everyone have a good night.

There are probably EF type adapters for all the major cameras. Set your budget and then go to Tokyo and Yodobashi Akiba or Bic (the big ones) and look at all the cameras in your price range.

Amazon will have the adapters if you don’t see them at Yodobashi or Bic.

I’m partial the the Sony alpha.
 
So, Supposedly there was an earthquake this evening centered about 8 miles from our house. Only 3.6 but close so everyone felt it. Neighborhood Facebook lit up. Wife came and asked me if I felt that. Said the house shook or swayed for a few seconds.

I didn’t feel a thing. We’d just gotten home and I was out in the garage getting the last of the items from the car. Wife asked me when I got back in the house. Nope. Not a thing.
