What a slacker I've been today, someone should fire me. I didn't even do breakfast dishes until 2PM

My Mrs has been running around doing all manor of things. Inside, outside, the sun room, the car, vacuuming, paint by number, baked 4 dozen cookies, ok that's all I can take.

I do have to make supper tonight. I shall keep that in mind.

That's what mine is a Coolpix. This one will shoot a video as well but wears the battery down quicker.

Must be a smart camera, to outsmart GW, technology moves quickly leaving us behind.
I can reliably beat my camera at a game of horse shoes or tic tack toe, but still shoot most of my shots on the automagical settings.

You need to give your email to Mr's Pute.
She can put you on track with a highly acclaimed work detail during the day🙄😊

My Nikon 80D only has 10.2 mp but the 610D has 24.3 mp and an ISO up to 6400, so has good resolution .

I usually get the shot I'm looking for, but I have a photographer friend who has the same camera and gets some incredible shots, with both near and far in focus.
I'll bet he has a Sony Alpha 7 mirrorless camera? Those things are something else.

"Like budda" one guy told me about the bokeh, or out of focus background.

A friend of mine did off studio camera work for Sesame street.
Go to farms ,dentists office . I used to get friends kids on some shoots.
I would work with him as a gaffer? taping down wires carrying stuff ect .
We did a shoot in the Bronx zoo, he is taking short video clips.
We were finished quick so futzing around I was carrying the camera.
As big as a mail box (L) bit not as wide and tall.
They would rent the camera from a place in the city.
Im walking around and people would come up to me and ask if I was taking scenes for a movie.
I said " Yes ,doing some shoots for the Sopranos"
If it was a pretty girl I would ask if she wanted to be in it for a scene.
They would gush with excitement and say yes
I said we have to be quick , set her up with lines.
You need to say "Tony ! Im sorry ,forgive me !" three takes quick .
I dont want to get into trouble"
She gets in position and says the lines 3 times .
I said perfect should be on in 2 months keep a eye out.
I didnt know how to turn the camera on much less use it .
