I'm not organised enough to use the time/date information, so I hadn't noticed this behaviour on my K-30. But mine's the same. I did a quick experiment and it gives me about 10 seconds to change the battery before it loses the settings. I fear this could drop to zero if the capacitor fails completely.

The difference here is that the ballet photos were presumably taken on private propertty, where the owner can lay down the rules. On the steet, which is generally considered a public space, there are no restrictions. Adults or children, it makes no difference.

There is any amount of TV footage of drunken youngsters falling about the streets of Essex and suchlike, but there doesn't seem to have been any legal action from the drunks claiming they have been portrayed in a negative way. In any case, they would have been incapable of giving informed consent to use of the images.

Having said that, I would never put photos of identifiable people on "social media" without thejr permission.

In a past life, I confidently took news photos of anyone within lens range. But the idea of snapping strangers for "private" purposes would fill me with dread. Admiration, QC. Your results during your project show it's worth the effort.

Correct, Nigel. Similar to the (usually ignored) distinction between "forever" and "for ever".

Some interesting shots there. Filmmakers often call this the "Dutch angle" and it can work particularly well with this type of street photography

I don't know about the Starter Edition, but the full versions of MoviePlus got a generally favourable response from users on the Serif forum before it was shut down. The Starter Edition is a free download so you've nothing to lose by giving it a try, except perhaps for the odd marketing phone call. It might be worth looking around the old forun: link

I ran into the double-image problem many years ago with a well-used pair of Bushnell 8x30s. Took them apart and somehow made microadjustments to the prisms (can't remember the exact process, but I suspect there must have been a few adjustment screws, although the prisms were also held in place by blobs of adhesive). They now work properly but, to be honest, this is probably more due to luck and lots of trial and error). I wouldn't attempt it again. Zoom binoculars are obviously more complex and would take a fair degree of skill to adjust. A proper repair shop is really the answer, or an exchange if the warranty allows this. I'd always go for fixed-magnification binocs, but we all have different needs.

Just checked the site on my tablet with the built-in Android browser and it works fine. So the problem seems to lie with the Android version of Chrome, which is my preferred browser at the moment.

Yup, I've got problems with the site freezing on my Lenovo Yoga 8 Android (Jelly Bean) tablet. It worked as expected until a couple of weeks ago.

The fisheye effect is strangely engaging, to me at least. It gives far more context to the main subjects than the standard "street" focal lengths. They're all perfectly exposed, well framed and sharp, as you'd probably expect with a fisheye. Well done. May just book a trip to Madeia.
