    Macro Mysteries to Solve

    This is a 947 pixel wide crop from the 6,000 pixel width of a near 1:1 shot, which all means this is about 4 mm wide of life size stuff.

    Autofocus mechanism

    Been studying on bird flight and freezing their variety of motions. Here is the blackbird with the PS grid turned on and set to the size of the D7100 sensor. The main grid lines represent millimeters and the lesser tenths of millimeters. So, this is the image of the bird sized to the sensor...

    What should I buy with my new D5300?

    I'll need to differ slightly from my fellow Nikonite @Gorf on no need for a second battery. The little one isn't going to wait for the battery to be charged to be cute or smart or not-so-smart or (unlimited list of what small humans do to amuse, befuddle and enamor the large humans around...

    Improved my copy technique a little. This would have been in the early SLR days, maybe even the first Summer.

    Eyelight's Time Travels

    Copied using the D3200 and built-in flash reflected off a piece of paper, while the slide was shielded from the direct flash. Kind of a trial run just to see if it would work. Pretty sure this is an A-10 either off the coast of South Carolina or south Florida. It needs some more clean-up, but...

    Eyelight's Time Travels

    Been working on copying some slide film from a past life. Thought maybe a thread dedicated to the travel back thru the pages of time might be a good thing. These images will be from the late 1970s into the 1990's with maybe a few after Y2K. Not sure how many or how often.

    Zoom locked on 3200 cannot unlock it?

    That is the 2nd generation of the non-VR lens. Should look like this: It is an older lens and does not have a zoom lock. Probably has a bit of grit or something causing it to bind. Possibility you could gently work it while pointing the lens front down and may get it free. But, it may...

    I'll post one so you won't need to rush. Think this one may be kinda hard, so a good chance no one will get it and you can post the next one tomorrow. A near 1:1 with no crop or PP.

    Does have something in common with a door threshold as people step on it.

    Macro Mysteries to Solve

    This is a near 1:1 uncropped image of roughly 23mm of what should be a fairly common thing. What we're after is simply identifying what is visible in the image, but extra kudos if someone guesses what is the parent object.

    With all the pumpkins showing up in the Monthly Assignment thread, I had to dig out this picture of a processed pumpkin. perhaps a little heavy on the whipped cream.
