I once did a test on a sloping treadmill...... I stopped
after about 5 mins. because I was knackered
The nurse said you'll have to stay on another 2 mins. to FAIL!

Couldn't remember where I'd seen it..... it must have been here!

The National Lawnmower Museum in Southport Lancashire is
more my cup of tea unless of course someone knows
of a shed museum?

Terrific shots. I haven't seen a Lotus Cortina for years.

It's possible to make things complicated where they can be very simple. My cameras are all set the same and stay set the same. Av, JPEG Premium, Daylight WB, Natural Custom Image. As I manually change the ISO to suit, the only thing to regularly check is that I'm not shooting a sunny landscape at ISO 51200!
Did you forget this! ........

Should be worth the GDP of a small country when the
Ricoh AS-IF full frame comes out and drives up prices
of 28mm, 50mm and 135mm lenses

300mm is really the minimum for birds on APS-C
The 135mm f/3.5 doesn't focus very close either.

Probably worth £30 - £39 if you sell it. Quite useful
on film for portraits or as a 200mm equivalent on Digital.

I can't remember what it was like wide open, but it's very
sharp at f/5.6 - f/8.
