Pentax Espio/IQ Zoom 105SW in 2024
Thank you so much for clicking on this. And thank you for following along.
What is an Espio? It’s a great lineup of Pentax 35mm film compact cameras, released from 1993 to 2001. I have no idea if Pentax used the word Espio to mean spy or, as in Spanish, I spy. Originally these models were named the Pentax IQZoom (from Camera-wiki.org). There were 15 released under the IQZoom name. Under the name Espio, there were 48 models made. So, there are a lot of Espios, and, from my experience, they are very good, so you can’t go wrong. I previously sampled the Pentax Zoom 70X (link below).
So here’s another lovely one, a late-model, the Pentax Espio 105 SW (2001) with a 28-105mm zoom. It’s a very go...

Panasonic Lumix FZ20 in 2024
Просмотров 4904 месяца назад
Another old super zoom! The Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ20 (2004) is one of many super zooms that arrived suddenly at my local tip and thrift shops last year. So I have a fair few. This is a good one. Being a Panasonic, it has a Leica-branded DC Vario-Elmarit zoom with 12x optical range (36-432mm equiv) and a constant F2.8 aperture. It has excellent image stabilisation. I really like the lens, it’s b...
Canon 600D in 2024
Просмотров 2894 месяца назад
The Canon 600D (2011, 18MP, CMOS sensor, APS-C) is an entry-level workhorse. A photographer whose work I admire uses it. It’s a satisfying, capable camera with high resolution. The photos in the slideshow represent a challenging day. The weather was crap, as they say here, with no let up in driving rain. However, the outing was planned months ahead so we took the plunge. The camera and the old ...
Olympus Stylus 600 in 2024 sample photos
Просмотров 7745 месяцев назад
Easy-fun and super cute, this is Olympus’ μ (mju) digital 600. In the U.S., it is named the Stylus 600. This 6mp, 2005 all-weather digicam has a 35-105mm equivalent focal length. Yes, it has a CCD sensor and super macro mode, and it requires an xD-picture card. It has a lovely brushed silver metal exterior, although I would not chance it in bad weather due to the sliding lens cover being a bit ...
Nikon D3000 in 2024 sample photos
Просмотров 1,3 тыс.5 месяцев назад
Underrated camera! I avoided this 2009 DSLR based on reviews until a photographer I admire pointed out that it was the last Nikon DSLR to use a CCD sensor (APS-C ). It also helped that the price was right. The D3000 has a lot of features you would expect from the Nikon D series, such as in-camera editing with some creative options, RAW and excellent JPEGs. It fits that 10.2MP sweet spot that I ...
Fujifilm A700 in 2024 sample photos
Просмотров 1,5 тыс.6 месяцев назад
Happy leap year! I have been carrying the 2006 Fujifilm Finepix A700 around for about a (leap) year. It’s time to make a slideshow for you. It is a silver, pocketable rectangle that runs on two AA batteries. The A700 at 7 megapixels is nothing special (like leap year is). It is simply digicam fun. The manual setting has only five adjustments and the ISO, white balance and EV need to be continua...
Olympus TG-810 in 2024 sample photos
Просмотров 3546 месяцев назад
If you’re going to walk and sit in the warm summer rain and the fog, what camera are you going to pick up? One of those tough digicams, of course (and grab your rain boots). This is the 2011 Olympus TG-810 with great image stabilisation, a 28-140mm (equiv.) focal length and a hefty feel to it. It has good resolution at 14MP but no raw. It has a number of scenes, including three for underwater. ...
1988 Olympus Mju Zoom 115 in 2024 sample photos
Просмотров 997 месяцев назад
This is a 35mm, point and shoot film camera from 1988, with a zoom range of 38mm to 115mm. It’s part of a hyped group of film mju’s that Olympus released in the 1980s and 1990s. There are also Olympus digiital mju’s (digicams) but that’s another slideshow. The aperture ranges from a f/4.5 to f/9.7. The camera is weatherproof; however, it is not sealed and I would not risk it in the rain. The cl...
Fujifilm Finepix F770EXR in 2024 sample photos
Просмотров 6517 месяцев назад
The Fujifilm Finepix F770EXR from 2012 has high resolution (16MP); it has raw capability; it can bracket three film simulations in jpeg; it sports a 25-500mm equivalent focal length with a 20x zoom; and, finally, it can create in-camera double exposures. What a (yes, another) great little camera! The camera has a Fujifilm EXR sensor, that is, a CMOS-type made by Sony. My camera is in very rough...
Pentax K5 Viewer’s Choice in 2023: Dazzling DSLRs
Просмотров 2,4 тыс.8 месяцев назад
The Pentax K5 last February (linked below) has become the most-viewed slideshow this year. Here’s another look at more images from the K5. That the camera is weather-sealed is a big plus for me as I’m happy in the rain, the fog and the wet winter light. The images here were made with the following lenses: the SMC PENTAX-DAL18-55mm F3.5-5.6 kit lens; the Sigma 70-300mm F4-5; the Helios 44M and a...
Fujifilm Finepix s100fs Most-viewed Digicam 2023
Просмотров 3468 месяцев назад
Hello There Camera People, It’s almost the end of the calander year so it’s time to re-examine, in the next two slideshows, what cameras you all viewed the most. The April video (linked below) on the Fujifilm Finepix s100fs got the most views of the nine digicam videos I published this year. The photos from it are full of character. Here is a new batch of images, most are SOOJs. I recorded the ...
Canon Powershot G7X in 2023
Просмотров 2399 месяцев назад
Hello Camera People, The Canon Powershot G7X (2014) is all the camera anyone might want, if they were the type of person who only wanted one camera. It has 20MP with a one inch BSI-CMOS sensor, and a 24-100mm equivalent zoom lens. A digicam dream! It’s an ideal travel camera so in this slideshow we go to Melbourne for art, coffee and beautiful parks. I hope you enjoy the trip (without the coffe...
Chinon CE-4 in 2023
Просмотров 91210 месяцев назад
Hello Everyone, Here we have a 35mm SLR film camera, the Chinon CE-4 (1980) with the manual Chinon 50mm f/1.9 lens from Japan. It has a Pentax K-mount and has an aperture priority exposure system. It’s not too heavy, just 485 grams. My lens is the plastic one (there is a metal f/1.9 as well). It is still a very good lens, with lovely color. There are good reviews of the lens on the Pentax Forum...
Canon IXUS 110 IS/ Canon PowerShot SD960 IS in 2023
Просмотров 1,4 тыс.10 месяцев назад
Hello Everyone, It’s pink, it’s 12.1MP, it’s got lovely contrast and the jpegs (there is no raw) don’t need much, if any processing. It’s another Canon that has two names, depending on where in the world it is sold. This is the IXUS 110 IS or the Powershot SD 960 IS Digital Elph (2009). The IS stands for image stabilisation, my favourite specification. The camera has a wondrous 28-112mm (equiv....
PENTAX * IST DS in 2023
Просмотров 2,4 тыс.11 месяцев назад
Hello Camera People, Here we have the Pentax *ist DS from 2004. Its predecessor, the *ist D (2003) was the very first DSLR from Pentax that was released at the same time Pentax also put out a film camera, named, the *ist (no D). Star-ist? I have yet to use any other lens besides the Sigma 100-300mm f/4.5-6.7 UC that came with the camera. The camera takes four AA batteries, always available. For...

Minolta Dynax 505si and Kodacolor 200 in 2023
hi, nice video! a question for you; do you have an actual xD picture card or an adapter from micro sd to xD picture card?
Thank you! An actual xD picture card.
Hey, if you don’t mind me asking, do you know what is the card it takes is there any SD card I can get for cheap like modern SD cards
Only old x-D cards, not SD.
Finally someone who says what sd card it reads, thankyou!!
Hii, I have that camara, and I really don’t know how to take pictures like that, when I take pictures they look horrible, could you explain me how did u managed to take pictures that way?
I''m sure your photos are better than you think. Keep practicing and try to enjoy it! Study the rule of thirds and look at paintings for composition tips.
Have you edit the colors of the pictures? If not, the camera captures so well the color, like film i´d say
Hi there! Yes, some are edited, I use PhotoScape X (it's free!). I particularly like the film filters, primarily to highlight shadows. Olympus' colours are beautiful.
I made a test with a micro sd with adapter and support 128 gb
had one .. i stll have my d7000 , its like new
what mode are you using?
Program, ISO 80, -2/3 EV
an excellent dslr ccd camera. the sideway mirror inside is ingenius design
hey! is this a digital camera?
35mm film
Hello Sleepy Nice impressions with this old Pentax :-). Grt Ernesto
The camera indeed features a CMOS sensor with dimensions of 1/2.3" (6.2 x 4.6 mm) and a crop factor of 5.6. It offers 16.8 megapixels (physical) and 16.1 megapixels (effective), which allows for excellent image quality, as opposed to a CCD sensor.
Thanks for that correction. 😊
what battery is for that?
Two AAs.
Hola soy de Argentina y tengo esta misma camara lo que nose es como hago para pasar las fotos que saco con la camara a mi celular o notebook
¡Hola! Tengo un teléfono Android con Gmail y Google Photos. En mi computadora me envío por correo electrónico la foto (adjunte desde la tarjeta SD o desde un archivo). Luego abro el correo electrónico en el teléfono (descargas de punta de flecha) y lo descargo en el teléfono. Luego abro una aplicación (como Instagram) y agrego una foto. Google Photos debería tenerlo almacenado para cargar. ¡Espero que sea útil y esto funcione para ti!
@@sleepyslideshows si pero de la cámara las fotos se pasan por USB ala compu y de la compu al celular Android??
I have a problem with my camera where it says the card isnt initialized when I already formatted the SD card. any helpful... uh guidance?
Have not had the problem with this camera. Do you have another card you can try or borrow to see if you get the same message? Is is the right size ( the camera should take an SD card up to 128 GBs). Good luck with it and hope you can get it working.
I am loving the unexpected, smooth background music.
Put on a better lens on your D3000, maybe it's the 18-55mm kit lens that produces the smudgy photos when you blow them up. I have 24-70mm prime zoom for my D700 and I'll put it on the D3000 to assess the images - it will be a 36-105mm on the D3000.
Very nice! I have two of these fine cameras.
Hello Sleepy Interessting camera from Panasonic. Like the autumn leaves at 1:35 :-). By the way, had taken images with the Nikon D50 and the super zoom 28-200mm. Video will come. Grt Ernesto
I have a fair few superzooms too - but not this rather delightful one. It's lovely. Thanks for posting your slideshows.
Wow! Cracking lens, great images. Thank you.
Brings back memories, my first digital SLR it never threw a ‘tantrum’ and was very very reliable and pretty enjoyable to handle and use too…Thanks for The Memories..!😇
👍🏼
Hello Sleepy Nice moody images. Have a Sigma 28-200 f3.5 to 5.6 for my Nikon D50. Next month I have more time for going out and taking pictures. Maybe I will use it :-). Greetings Ernesto
Hello Ernesto! Would like very much to see this combo, the D50 is a fave as you know 😊
Nice images. I think the conditions imbued them with a retro look. Thank you for sharing them.
Can you tell me which battery performs best for this L830 model? Original nikon batteries are not available in market.
Four AA batteries, any brand should do.
Just found mine while cleaning and organizing my junk room. This is the content i was looking for! I have other DSLRs and M43 cameras that i use now, but i think i might take this one on a photowalk sometime for nostalgia. I remember taking some lovely photos with it.
Glad you found the camera, you are going to have big fun, enjoy!
Is it edited or raw?
Film scans, with minimal post-processing.
Hello Sleepy Nice tiny camera and once again with XD-Picture card. Nice compositions at 2:03 and 2:42 :-). Grt Ernesto
Lovely images from a practical little camera. Thank you for sharing.
Giant thanks 😊
how do u get rid of the date on the bottom right of the pictures
Go the menu → date stamp → date → off
@@sleepyslideshows thank you!
Hello Sleepy Cool, the Nikon D3000 with the kitlens 18-55mm. Was my first DSLR I bought and works very good :-). Like it very much and use it most times for portait shootings. Grt Ernesto
It still makes nice images, thanks for sharing.
最爱PENTAX K5 K10D
Yes the old K10D can, and always will, take beautiful photos. I bring mine out every now and again. Put some old glass on it and have some old school manual focus fun.
I have a Pentax K-5II. Basically the same as the K-5 but with improved low light performance and maybe a few other minor details. It's a great camera. I included the battery grip with mine for easier hand held portraits. I have plenty of old legacy Pentax glass to use with it as well as some modern autofocus lenses. Camera takes lovely pictures with nice color. I also still have my old K10D to mess with from time to time.
I bought one new , years ago, still have it
Bonjour quel carte sd avez vous ?
Bonjour, The camera takes regular SD cards. However, as mentioned on the Pentax Forum: 'the *ist DS should be able to accept up to 32GB SD or SDHC card as long as you have the latest firmware upgrade of 2.02. If you do not have this firmware level your camera won't accept higher than an 2GB SD card.' Cheers, S.
Pentax Ist DL que je possède
Great camera, still holds on!
Hello Sleepy A Fuji running on AA batteries is always a good choice. The only problem is the XDcard. Grt Ernesto
Great set, many thanks for sharing.
Enjoyed your photos,picking up my Pentax K- 5 11 tomorrow. Any suggestions for the settings I should be using? I will be using the 18-135mm lens .
Thank you. You will really enjoy having this! I like to usually use it in the P mode. Some menu settings: JPEG and Raw, Auto AF point setting at 11, Auto noise Reduction, ISO Auto between 200 -3200. In the C Menu I have almost everything turned to 1. I use natural colour with all the colour parameters in the middle except for saturation +1. Exposure compensation at -3. Have fun, experiment until you find your tastes and feel free to ask any questions. There are other blogs and videos with very detailed setting instructions as well.
Hello Sleepy Perfect camera for such a day. Nice and moody images. The sound of rain brings the real feeling :-). Grt Ernesto
Calendar quality mate, thank you for sharing.
Very nice. I have P-KP. Best in the world. My friend.
Hello Sleepy Nice camera. Some day I will try Film once again. Grt Ernesto
Where to buy this
ebay
Hello Sleepy Oh, another Fujifilm Finpix. Looks very used but it still works we see. How is the weather? Here in europe it is terrible and not realy winter. On sunday morning we had -9C and this morning +3C and rain. Grt Ernesto
Hello Ernesto, It's really summer here, the sun is proof. Ha! 'Terrible and not really winter' -you need to photograph that. I imagine sheets of sleet in high winds, we even get that in summer! Hope you have been out to the river today :))
@@sleepyslideshows Hello Sleepy. Will try it to make pictures you wanted to see. Maybe next week, because this week I have very much to do.
Wow.. the kodak color science feels like looking at distant memory. While modern cameras looking at reality.
The Pentax K5 has to be one of the best kept secrets in the Photography world. It is so much better than it's competitors in so many ways. Some of my favorite images were captured with a K5.
