My new Point and Shoot Camera

This was a sort of an impulse buy. I had done some research about this type of camera and knew I wanted one – 6×9 cm negatives in a pocketable format! Then I saw it in a photo shop, abused as a decoration. I couldn’t resist. 50 € and an instant later it was mine. I had to do some belly surgery to it and now the times are perfect, except the 1/250 which still is too slow with 1/125 but so what – at least its usable now. Maybe I’ll do some better cleanup of the shutter later.

So here it is: My new point-and-shoot-camera …

No exposure measurement.

No autofocus or distance measurement.

60×90 mm sensor.

Battery life: Unlimited.

Plain fun!

A simple rose

A simple rose I took the image of this rose in the tea kitchen at work some days ago. What amazes me so much is what can be done with a little pocket camera, a Canon Powershot S95 in this case. At f2.0 the macro really gives a great bokeh.
