You can set the file name to include a number which increments with the shutter count which gives every picture a different name.

The first means that the SR mechanism thinks it worked correctly and I think the half press time is the time between part pressing the exposure button and taking the picture.

A little light reading - clicky. Welcome to my world.

In materials science, fatigue is the progressive and localized structural damage that occurs when a material is subjected to cyclic loading. The maximum stress values are less than the ultimate tensile stress limit, and may be below the yield stress limit of the material.

Does the Lanc have Merlins too do you know?
At that time, most of our aircraft used Merlins - Spitfire, Hurricanes, Mosquitos, Lancs etc.AndrewH wrote:
Lemmy, that's a great shot of City of Lincoln! Shame there's no way to get the sound of those engines on there too!

Yes, a thrilling sound. I'd love to hear it from inside the plane. My other favourite sound is the Merlin on the Spitfire on the overrun. (I think that's when you get that throaty roar).

As I understand it, normally the warranty agreement is with the original purchaser and is not transferable, but Chris at SRS has under certain circumstances honoured warranties to second owners. Might be worth asking the question.The camera is under a year old, but I have not had it from new so i'm not sure about how warranty works in that case.

Nice bit of "topside" Lemmy. Quite rare for the Lanc.

Sorry Mike still not quite there. The thing with fatigue failure (and this is not just the sensor itself - the whole camera is shaken as per Newton's laws) is that it is cumulative. The more often you use it, the sooner it fails.
The concept of being within design criteria therefore having no impact is almost unheard of in the real world. It would mean something never wore out.

Sorry Barry - not the most helpful answer as it has never happened to mine, but is it still in warranty?

Mike - is that true of all Tamron 1.4s? I had heard it was only the older ones. I can vouch that some do though as I have one that does. It is labelled as "1.4x Pz-AF MC4".

Possibly not, but taking a wild guess it has a starter motor which was what my first comment referred to.I'm not sure a diesel has any HT side and it's a very simple design which can trace its ancestry back to the 50s I think
My point is that the more times you use it, the less time it lasts, so why use it if it is not needed.
