@LeePelling Cheers Lee, yeah, it was a drain cover. I just thought I try a theme in a video for a change.

@westcountrywanderings Thanks, Paul. It was very generous of Paul to think of me and send me the cameras. Both primes and zooms have their place. I photographed Whitby Goth Weekend on Saturday. The shots I got with my 50 mm prime were probably my favourite, but sometimes it was far too long for the crowds, so the 10-20 mm wide angle and even the 18-55 mm kit lens came in handy. As for compact point and shoots, I find them quite liberating to concentrate purely on the composition. They can put the fun back into photography. Phones, like yourself, I find them a bit of a sterile experience and much prefer a dedicated camera. Thanks for watching.

@WanderingwithWatto Thanks for thinking of me when picking out those cameras. Everyone gets fixated about megapixels, but unless you are printing large format prints, having an eye for an image is more important, IMO.

@theoldunsshot1005 Thanks, Keith. I thought I'd try a theme when out shooting with this camera as I didn't want to end up with the usual shots on this walking route. The shot of the brass number 20 isn't as sharp as I'd like, but it was at the full extent of the zoom, so perhaps the lens is way past it's sharpest point by then.

Thanks Andy, yes I love that shot, too. Incidently, it's a boat crane for lifting craft out and onto the dock for repairs. It had numbers on it, so I made a photo out of it.

Thanks Andrew. I wasn't sure what I was going to shoot with this little Canon. I've taken many photos on my lunchtime walk and didn't really want to repeat the same shots. I thought this was a nice change.

@@sunnyrain_0o0 Thanks for watching, and feel free to use the numbers Idea yourself, I'm sure I'll not be the first to think of it.

Thanks, Phil, that's an image I like too. Having an eye for images always helps no matter the camera.

Yes, the fuel pump at the Marina. I just came up with the concept for the video/ images and ran with it, I wasn't 100% sure what I was going to come across on my wander but I was quite happy with how the little Canon performed.

Thanks for watching Ellie. I like to give a home to old cameras that would probably end up in recycling.

Thanks, DL. It was fun to shoot with it. Not many controls to worry about, just concentrate on the composition.

I believe they did do a Canon mount. I'm not sure if it was APSC or FF for the Canon. I know it was only an APSC lens for the Nikon, and you get a lot of border vignettes if used on full frame, so be prepared to crop your images.

@@WanderingwithWatto Thanks so much for watching Watto. There were some great subjects to photograph in that cemetery.

Thanks for watching my other channel, Alan. What kind of camera have you got? Most of my gear is considered classic now. It doesn't stop you taking good images.

Thanks, Paul. I thought I'd do something fun for Halloween.

@stephenmathewcowen6792 Thanks for watching Stephen. I thought I'd do something fun for Halloween, but I was really happy with the images I got. It's a definite win.

@theoldcameraguy Thanks for watching Dave. I was pretty happy with the images, this lens has a reputation for being a bit of a dog.

@wendingourway Thanks, Bruce. I was pretty pleased with the images, much better than I expected.

@@theoldunsshot1005 Thanks for watching Keith. I'm wondering if the one inch sensor is using the very centre of the lens (possibly the good bit) as I ended up with a hefty crop factor, making the lens about a 70mm.

Thanks for watching and commenting, I hope you enjoyed the video.

Old glass is definitely worth saving. With them being manual focus, they aren't much cop for action shots but great for portraits and other still subjects. 14mm on my Nikon 1 would be quite handy. This 29mm full frame lens works out as a 70mm or so on the 1-inch sensor camera.

Lol

Thanks for watching Nick and Jill. It was a fun project, but I need to get down the gym to use this on a regular basis. There isn't enough of a grip on that camera to comfortably hold it for any length of time. I was happy with the pics though.

Thanks Ellie, I really enjoyed putting together this video and recycling parts of an otherwise broken camera.

Thanks Yasmin, I love messing around with old cameras so this was a fun video to make, I wasn't expecting to get as many good images from the shoot as I did. Have a great Halloween.

I had fun creating it, Dave. A bit of Ai and a bit of photoshop. The photography in the video isn't bad either. It makes up for the terrible puns throughout. 😂

Thanks, Duane. I don't think they come much cheaper than this one. It was pretty terrible, though. You might like the next two videos I have coming up as they've both photography on the budget.

I think you can get better for way less than £40, you just have to look a bit harder to find them. I have a video in two week's time that easily proves it. Next week is a Halloween special 👻

Thanks for watching Tim. At £14 it's definitely a cheapshot contender, just not a great camera. The next two videos are definitely well into Cheapshot territory, I think you'll enjoy them.😉

The majority of the content of this channel is about the crap cameras I've bought on the Internet 😀.

@stigfloberghagenphotography Thanks for watching and commenting. It's really appreciated 😊.

To be honest Phil, your phone was probably better. I just thought I do a less serious video for a change.

Not you as well, mate 😀

Indeed, Dave, I liked some of the more 'arty' filters, a shame the sensor is probably vga quality. Pastel, peppermint green is a winner for me, black would have been far too serious.

Yep, I buy these things so you don't have to. Cheers for watching Keith.

I thought after the last 'serious' video, I'd do something daft. I find it amazing that there is an obviously strong ready market for these things. At £14 including delivery from China, this one was never going to be up to much, the ones that are priced at £50-£200 are the ones I think are the most cruel as they prey on those who want something good but don't have the budget. Thanks for watching Dave.

@AndrewHamiltonPhotography I'm starting to wonder if it's been left with an unscrupulous neighbour 😂. I think they're being sold hard on having that 'Year 2K aesthetic' to impressionable youth and, of course, youtube photographers to make daft videos with. Thanks for watching, Andrew.

@sunnyrain_0o0 hi, I thought you might have one of these or something similar. Monet-esque, yes, I think that is the most polite way of describing the images. 😀 Thanks for watching.

Thanks for watching Bruce, megapickles was a slip of the tongue, but I had to leave it in. I even created this video in 1080p rather than 4k to try and make the photos look better.

@@AndrewWaltonPhotography I for one loved it! I'd often do that toward the end of a rather hectic day of teaching...made the kids laugh as they head home with stories about the slip ups of their teacher! LOL

I had to leave it in. I'm sure Megapickle is the only this thing has 48 or 64 of anything !

I don't expect my TG-6 to act like a dslr either, the chap who I referred to had some serious expectations, I think. I love the fact that I can take the TG-6 anywhere without worry. I hope to have a new TG-6/Olympus Tough series video soon as I've picked up some accessories for mine.

Thanks for watching 🙂

@gunn1ng I still have it, but for some reason, the auto focus is a bit random when using the zoom. They're great little cameras for shooting street photography.

Thank you. 😊

@@AndrewWaltonPhotography 👌

The fz82 won't give you anything that your P900 can't do (although it is smaller and lighter). The FZ2000 has the one inch sensor, which makes a huge difference in image quality.

@@AndrewWaltonPhotography Thankyou Andrew 😊 I think i will take a look at the FZ2000.I have £1000 to spend so the FZ2000 is definitely on my radar but may also consider a Canon.Great channel 😊❤️
