I started out early to catch the sunrise from Kitt Hill. The fog obscured the sunrise somewhat but I got some images of fog in the valleys. Next I headed to to Trethevy Quoit, but on the way stopped to take pics of Caradon Hill transmitter mast looming out of the fog. Finally at Trethevy Quoit, most impressed! Set my sat nav to get me home but it took through the narrowest and most obscured roads it could find. However I stopped when I came across a bridge I later found to be called Clapper Bridge over the River Lynher and stopped again at a village called Pillaton before finally getting home. All in a morning.

Hope you enjoy the pics. Although I was cursing my sat nav at the time time It took me to places I would otherwise not known about.

Thanks

It must have been still turned on but in standby mode. By touching the shutter button it wakes up then if no activity for a minute switches back to standby mode. I was using a large camera back with a shoulder strap and the bag was was well packed with equipment. The camera with a lens attached was on its side with shutter button against the side of the bag.

I recently did a shoot where I was the official photographer for a re-union over two evenings at a local hotel. The first night went well but on the second near the end I had a glitch while trying to review the last images I had taken. My first thought was the sd card was full. However I switched the camera off and on and it was fine, I took a test picture and reviewed it without any problems. I got home after midnight and loaded the pics into Lightroom.

Shock horror! About a hundred images were blank. totally black.

I went to bed and found it difficult to sleep. What had gone wrong. It must have been the sd cards, were they full. Why didn't I change them. what am I going to say.

Next morning I had to investigate. The blank images were the last ones I had taken, the file size indicated they had data. Maybe the card was corrupted. I had used two cards but both were identical. Could two cards get corrupted at the same time? Maybe I might be able to recover the data.

My further investigations showed the blank images were taken from about the time I finished shooting and that they carried on at one, two or three second intervals for about ten minutes then paused for for twelve minutes then took a couple more. This tied up with the time I was carrying my camera bag to my car and again when I arrived home.

I must have left the camera on whilst carrying it in the camera bag and it was being activate by my walking. No lost images! What a relief.

Regards Jeff

I really like the last two. full of atmosphere !

I have just seen this video showing the shock resistance filters https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EDpnuyxnewM

I will second that. amazing

Its the biggest supermoon in 2018.

My update went without any hitches.

I have had a problem with LR before and uninstalling then re-installing sorted it out.

Flicker is the only place I use to share photos to the public. I use Google Drive occasionally to share to certain images to certain people, but the free account is 15GB. I don't use the Flicker uploader, I use Lightroom to do the uploads and that works fine for me.

Except when a manual lens, which has no contacts, is used
