RIP Number 2 Camera: September 21, 2007

Random horses in the forest pasture next to the farm. I didn't know it was pasture and thought there were horses loose in the woods. Ah, the sites one sees from the farm PortaPotty.



This one is stylized, but the original photo sucked (it still pretty much sucks. Too busy, not enough contrast). The one above is the only one that came out in the few I took before my faithful Number 2 camera broke. RIP, little buddy. 2nd camera casuality this year.


One can see, looking at the progression photos to the right that the photo quality plummets after March. That's when my Number 1 camera died. Fugi, 9 megapixel, manual focus, 30-400mm lens (something like that). That was a nice camera.

Camera Number 2 was an old Kodak 4 megapixel, 70-400mm lens, autofocus. The lag time was too long on photos, but it did the job when Number 1 broke.

Number 3 is a crappy Samsung 70-150mm autofocus, but its 7 megapixels, and small. It was cheap - you don't want to use expensive stuff to video horses daily because of the dust and dirt that gets in the camera. I may be shopping for Number 4 soon...
