Photography bits and pieces.

Rundle Street & Mall

Got a few hours away from the kids last night thanks to the inlaws!

Had dinner in Rundle Street with Michael & Pris and then went for a walk shopping in Rundle Mall afterwards. We were window shopping, the girls were actual shopping, our poor credit cards 🙂

I had the LX3 with me and managed to take a few pics and video which I put together in iMovie when I got home.

Lightning at Sunset

Video: Panasonic LX3
Photos: Canon 50D

Some video and pics of lightning last night up near my mum’s place. In some of the footage you can hear the 50D shutter when I was taking pics 🙂

In the first few clips the lightning is towards the left hand side, later on it’s towards the middle. Don’t blink, you’ll probably miss it.

Larger version of the above video is here should fill most screens 🙂

Unfortunately the video suffers a bit from the whole conversion process LX3 -> iMovie -> Smugmug -> Output.

To give you an idea of the video output on the LX3, one of the original clips is here.

300d gone for repairs

Yesterday after work I dropped my broken 300d off to Diamonds Camera in Rundle Street. It’s now on it’s way to Canon for a check and quote on a fix.

If I don’t choose to go ahead with the fix, it’s still $60 for the quote, mmm. In the mean time I’ve been looking around an the options available, definitely some nice new cameras around.

Just have to keep waiting 😐
